With the installation of two new sculptures in the Computer Science and Technology Building, art has become more integrated into diverse locations across campus.
The artists for the project were picked two years ago through Percent for Art Louisiana, a public funding program that says when more than $2 million of the state fund is spent on the construction of a state building, one percent shall be used for the installation of art into the building.
The winner for the glass sculpture, located in the entrance of CSTB, was Alexander Tylevich. The two winners for the ceramic sculpture, located in the first-floor hallway, were Amy Baur and Bryan Boldon of In Plain Sight Art Studio in Minneapolis, MN.
