This sequel to Banners and Audio Tour Celebrate “People, Plants & Revolution” in Arlington adds photos of the indoor banners and more resources about the art.

Above are two of twelve banners you can view through May along Massachusetts Avenue in Arlington. Below are related banners you can view inside Robbins Memorial Town Hall through September 6.

The outdoor views are enticing, though distant and dependent on traffic, weather, and your own mode of transport. The indoor venue is generously unrestricted for close-up viewing of each banner.

“ArtsArlington’s Public Art Curator Cecily Miller invited artists Suzanne Moseley and Liz Shepherd to design commemorative banners; they were assisted by Lily McDonald and Andrew Palladino.” (quote from “People, Plants & Revolution” Public Art Banners and Audio Tour, Arts Arlington Calendar)

The banners are unified by defined white-line images on deep blue backgrounds, a key feature of an early photographic process called cyanotype.

For more background about the artists’ work with cyanotype (or blueprinting), see Tent by Liz Shepherd and Suzanne Moseley is an Impressive, Inspiring Work of Art.

Their visual art structures the essential, engaging background online at Arts Arlington: People Plants & Revolution with Audio Tour www.PlantStories.us, accessible anywhere at any time. Enjoy learning from the stories, voices, perspectives, imagery, and discoveries in this impressive, collaborative, innovative exploration of history. No matter how far you are from Arlington, you can connect with People, Plants and Revolution!
