Project Blue: Barriers and Dinghies

Project Blue: Barriers and Dinghies

Blue River Design worked in partnership with Arts and Business and Commissions North to transform derelict railway gates at its Newcastle offices by inviting artists to use them as a showcase for experimental new artworks. The gates have now become an exciting venue for temporary public arts commissions.

Wolfgang Weileder's 'Barriers and Dinghies' was the first installation to be commissioned.
