Providence, RI – As a specialty niche, Corporate Art Group Inc. researches, sources, and produces historic images on a variety of subjects including industry, sports, and local cities and towns.

For Providence G, the luxury apartments located on Dorrance Street in downtown Providence, RI, connecting with local history was imperative to paying homage to the city. The corridors are graced with iconic historic photographs depicting Providence during the 19th and 20th centuries. The artwork focuses specifically on the micro local architectural history on Dorrance Street and of downtown Providence.

Alisha Capobianco, the historic researcher at Corporate Art Group Inc., has sourced these film photographs in more than 100 cities and towns across the nation, working with various sources to trace back the culture and history of buildings and streets. The photographs are digitally restored, when necessary, printed in house to fine art paper or canvas up to 4′ x 8’, custom framed or printed on vinyl to full size wall murals. Her research is combined with design to specifically pair these historic photographs together when installed for display.
