We have received funding from the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage in support of a new project, A Site to be Seen: Concepts for and from the Superfund, which is designed to frame the varied ecological, artistic and social potentials of the Superfund site adjacent to RAIR. This expository project invites artist Mierle Laderman Ukeles, as a Visioning Artist in Residence, to offer counsel to RAIR while we investigate the feasibility of an organizational transition onto the site. The project also funds an initiative that invites a group of interdisciplinary artists, curators and other practitioners, as ‘Site Respondents’, to produce printed ‘Site Responses’. Addressing concepts of remediation and sustainability inspired by the Metal Bank Superfund site at 7301 Milnor st, these newsprint Site Response broadsides will creatively explore our collective relationship to maintenance, preservation and remediation of contaminated land.

DIGGING DEEPER

RAIR partnered with Riverfront North Partnership and Interface Studios on the Unorthodox project to raise awareness of Philadelphia’s Bridesburg Riverfront Park initiative in a neighborhood long disconnected from the Delaware River by industry. RAIR built a signage system from recycled materials to raise awareness of the Bridesburg Riverfront Park project in both English and Spanish. When completed, the park will provide the Bridesburg Community with access to the Delaware River and the riverfront trail and network of parks along the Delaware River that connects residents of Philadelphia’s urban neighborhoods to nature, offering unparalleled recreational, community building, and environmental education activities.
