INTERNATIONAL KINETIC ART EXHIBIT & SYMPOSIUM
BOYNrON BWH,flUHIDA
KINETIC ART
EXHIBIT and SYMPOSIUM
2012
A Kinetic Art Exhibit and Symposium designed to attract and engage
visitors, participants and artists Internationally, regionally and locally
with a strong emphasis on education and wonder.
Kinetic art is three dimensional art that contains moving
parts or depends on motion for its effect.
The motion of the artwork can be provided in many ways:
mechanical, natural or interactive.
Kinetic art encompasses a wide variety of disciplines often
resulting in a collaborative effort
to create and fabricate the artwork.

To commission (hire) a kinetic artist to collaborate with an education partner through the school

To maximize this project it is desirous to collaborate with interdepartmental curriculum to create and

project would showcase a green technology. The first green technology project will focus on a solar
energy-producing kinetic artwork.
