art+place summary

The art+place public art fund, launched in 2007, devotes $12 million to new public art projects in Queensland from 2008-2010 and builds on Queensland's reputation as a leader in public art.

The art+place public art fund was the key recommendation to the Government following an independent evaluation of the Art Built-In policy by Professor Michael Keniger in 2005-06. See the Keniger report (PDF 2148KB).

A curatorial panel of experts has been established with a Government Curator art+place appointed to advise the Government on the expenditure of the Fund.

art+ place will contribute focus and rigour to the commissioning of significant public art. It can be accessed by Queensland Government departments and agencies as well as providing assistance for public art projects to Queensland local government councils, not-for-profit arts and cultural organisations, arts and cultural festivals and private developers.
