Six weather resistant AQUiVO screens have been unveiled as part of Channel 4’s ‘Big Art Project’. The screens adorn Channel 4’s ‘Big 4’ based outside the channel’s headquarters on Horseferry Road, London.
To celebrate both the Channel’s 25th anniversary year and the launch of the Big Art Project, a 50-foot-high metal '4' was constructed for the steps of the channel’s headquarters. Over the 12 months of the channel's anniversary year, four different artists will have customised the Big 4.
The second adaptation by Mark Titchner, Find Our World in Yours Find Your World in Ours. In this case, the artist uses 6 AQUiVO outdoor screens to enhance the interactivity of the sculpture.
Architecture and Design Agency FreeState is working with each commissioned artist to bring their designs to life, Adam Scott, Design Director at FreeState, explained: “We work closely with artists on their initial design concept to find the most appropriate solutions; from conception right through to the delivery, to the onsite management and maintenance of the installation. As the screens for Mark Titchner’s installation were going to be displayed externally on the structure, we needed to ensure that they would be robust enough to endure the volatile environment.
This rental project is one of the first for PSCo’s range of AQUiVO outdoor screens, which launched last year. The robust screens feature a toughened glass front and anti-reflective surface which make them perfect for temporary or permanent outdoor installations.
