Last weekend, Nancy Pochis Bank Art Studio sent our summer studio interns and partner artists Poppy Golland and Tracee Badway to the 30th Annual Port Clinton Art Festival. There they worked together to chalk a 10′ x 10′ pavement mural of Renoir’s famous impressionist painting “Two Sisters (One the Terrace)”. Along with our chalk mural at the Gold Coast Art Fair in June, this project was commissioned by Amdur Productions, who produce juried art festivals around the country.

Chicago Public Artwork Goes International

In the summer of 2007, “Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet” was launched in Chicago. Nancy Pochis Bank was among an international group of artists selected by the jury to design and create a globe to be displayed in the lakefront exhibit.

Since the start of the "Cool Globes" project, Nancy has created four 5’ globes that have been exhibited across the United States and internationally.

“Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet” is a non-profit organization established to raise awareness of climate change and inspire individuals and community leaders to embrace solutions. The public art exhibit features larger-than-life globes, each designed to depict a solution to global warming.
