Artistic Competition of the KVB K\u00e0\u00b6lner Verkehrs-Betriebe AG
\nDesign of the new North-South Light Railway Cologne (Nord-S\u00e0\u00bcd Stadtbahn K\u00e0\u00b6ln)
\nCall for entries – Submission Deadline: 31 July 2007<\/strong><\/p>\n

The KVB K\u00e0\u00b6lner Verkehrs-Betriebe AG (the public transport company of the city of Cologne) have initiated an international art competition for the artistic design of eight stations – seven below and one above ground – of the new North-South Light Railway Cologne (Nord-S\u00e0\u00bcd Stadtbahn K\u00e0\u00b6ln). In two resolutions of the Cologne City Council, the KVB were commissioned to organize the competition, which was launched on 18 May 2007 with the international call for submissions.<\/p>\n

National and international artists are to be involved in this multi-stage international art
\ncompetition. Through the artistic design of the stations, the “city below” shall be made accessible for both Cologne’s inhabitants and its visitors as a new place of discovery which sensitizes us for associating with art, and at the same time makes an important contribution to the discussion about topics of urban living – the “city before our eyes”. The financial means for the competition, including the realisation of the art works, amount to 1.75 million Euros.<\/p>\n
