Issues in Public Art (1998)

by Arts Law Centre of Australia

For several years now State and Local governments have recognised the social and cultural benefits which public art can confer on a community, by making significant financial commitments to such projects. By its nature public art involves a very wide range of interests - community, political, commercial and cultural. It is this feature of public art which makes these benefits possible. But for the same reason, public art projects have the potential to come unstuck, in a myriad of ways. In order to achieve positive outcomes more needs to be done on a practical level.

Presented by:

  • Julie Robb, Executive Director, Arts Law Centre of Australia
  • John Kirkman, Director, Casula Powerhouse
  • Barbara Wheeler, Co-ordinator of Cultural Development, Wollongong City Council
  • Sally Gray, Curator, Sally Gray & Associates
