Description
by Charles Fitzgerald (Author)
This book is about how taxpayer money is spent on public art. Some art colleagues and I are questioning the jury process for selecting pieces used in public art. We are lifelong artists, and we have college art degrees and twenty to thirty years of experience in doing large-scale sculptures. Our frustration lies in the fact that the jury for public art is largely made up of nonart-educated and nonart-experienced juries. Our question is, How can an insurance agent, a mayor, a real estate agent, or a business owner judge the artwork of a professional artist? We do have a solution to assist in solving this problem.
Author Biography
I became interested in art in elementary school. In high school I drew frequently and my illustration was selected for the cover of a high school publication. This prompted me to study art at the university level receiving a BFA (bachelor of fine arts) concentrating in sculpture and photography. After working for the The Boeing Company as a technical illustrator for 13 years I became a high school art teacher and taught for 22 years. In addition to this I have done large scale sculpture installations for 30 years.
