Alibi, the local architect-artist studio of Harry Lowd and Catie Newell, won the Powahouse Percent For Art Competition that was held last year. The competition was facilitated by the friendly visionaries at the Urban Arts Institute.
Alibi were selected by a jury of neighbors, artists, and architects made up of Chris McCarthy (lives around the block, of Friends of Alvah Kittredge Park fame), Celia Grant (lives across the park, of the Haley House board – among many other initiatives), and Gretchen Schneider (my Architect, who lives just north of the Charles river and also co-edits the wonderful Architecture Boston magazine).
Catie and Harry will be proposing initial concepts and schemes for their Powahouse artwork. The photo above is from an installation that won them the Architectural League Prize for Young Architects and Designers. Excited to see what they come up with.
