WDBA and the Art Gallery of Windsor Partner to Launch Bridge Artist Exhibit

The Gordie Howe International Bridge project team is pleased to announce the artist for the project’s third and final Public Art commission, Aesthetic Bridge Lighting.  Douglas Coupland, a contemporary visual artist, designer and novelist, will develop an artistic lighting concept that highlights the symbolic connection linking Canada and the U.S.    

Installation of the second public art commission at the Gordie Howe International Bridge project is underway. Titled Aazhoge, the 3-metre/10-foot-high free-standing sculpture is a contemporary reflection of the culture and traditions of Indigenous Peoples in Canada, with emphasis on local Anishinaabe First Nations.

Today, the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities, announced that a selection process is underway for the position of Chair of the Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority (WDBA) Board of Directors.
