Visiondivision to Create Extraordinary Concession Stand for 100 Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park

INDIANAPOLIS, IN.- The Indianapolis Museum of Art has commissioned an inventive concession stand from the Swedish architecture duo Visiondivision for 100 Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park, which will begin construction this summer. Visiondivision’s first realized project in the United States, Chop Stick will offer Park visitors a place to sit, swing, and enjoy refreshments in an outdoor pavilion crafted almost entirely from a single tree. Chop Stick will open in summer 2012. Premiering this September will be the previously announced commission FLOW (Can You See the River?), a site-specific installation along Indianapolis’ White River by New York-based artist Mary Miss. In addition to these two new projects, environmental artist Katherine Ball will be the 2011 summer resident on Andrea Zittel’s Indianapolis Island, an inhabitable island that was one of the Park’s original commissions.
