Barbara Cole, Executive Director

Other Sights is a group of artists and curators who are dedicated to challenging perceptions, encouraging discourse and promoting individual perspectives about shared social spaces. A non-profit society, Other Sights seeks to create a presence for art in spaces and sites that are accessible to a broad public, such as the built environment, communications technologies, the media, and the street.

Other Sights provides support to artists, writers and curators interested in creating temporary, critically rigorous work for highly visible locations. We collaborate and share resources with organizations and individuals in order to present projects that consider the aesthetic, economic and regulatory conditions of public places and public life.
