Why an advertising agency does public art

It is a fair question, and the answer is that in Uttar Pradesh a great deal of public beautification, publicity and civic art work reaches the market as a government tender floated to empanelled advertising agencies. Graphic Arts is an advertising agency in Varanasi that has held that classification and done that work since 1999.

So a body looking for an empanelled agency for beautification work and a body looking for a sculpture fabricator are, in our case, looking for the same vendor — which is unusual, and is the reason this page exists.

What makes the combination unusual is the other side of it. Most advertising agencies cannot cast a twelve-foot FRP statue, engineer a monumental scrap-metal installation, or paint a mural across the full height of an apartment block — they subcontract it. Most sculpture fabricators, conversely, are not set up to bid government work at all. We do both, in-house.

Capability statement

  • Sculpture: FRP, carved cement, fabricated and cast metal and reclaimed scrap — every major medium from one studio.
  • Murals and relief: cast panels and in-situ carved work, indoor and exterior.
  • Wall painting at scale: multi-storey facades by rope access, corridor and boundary wall programmes.
  • Landmark installations: fabricated metal with integrated lighting.
  • Urban beautification: corridor, underpass and boundary wall schemes.
  • Delivery: design, fabrication, transport and on-site installation carried out by us, not subcontracted.
  • Print: UV, offset, book and canvas printing produced in-house.

Demonstrated civic-scale delivery

Our N50 metal cast installation for the Noida 50 Years celebration is a commemorative civic landmark designed, fabricated, lit and installed for a public plaza — concept through installation delivered by one studio.

Working to sanctioned budgets and fixed dates

Municipal work usually has a sanctioned figure before it has a design, and a date fixed by an inauguration. That is a workable way to commission provided the constraint is stated at the outset — we would rather propose what can be achieved well within a known budget than develop a design and cut it down afterwards. Our commissioning guide sets out the approval stages in full.
