ART ACQUISITION POLICY
ADOPTED:
LAST REVISED:
The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines for and encourage the acquisition
of art in the public spaces of the City of San Bernardino.
II. AcQuISITtON GuiDELINES
Artwork for City Facilities should comply with the following guidelines:
2.1 The artwork should demonstrate higher aesthetic qualities, originality, and
artistic excellence.
2.2 The artwork should be appropriate in scale, material, form, content and value
such that it contributes to the identity and viability of the community and
promotes the image of the City of San Bernardino.
2.3 The artwork should be durable, permanent, and easily protected from
vandalism and weathering. Substantial consideration shall be given to the
structural and surface integrity and stability of the foundation (or building
facade), the permanence and durability of the artwork, and the artwork's

III. METHODS OF ART ACQUISITION
There are four methods by which the Fine Arts Commission may acquire art for City
Facilities.
3.1 OPEN: Artists submit proposals in response to a public advertisement. The
Fine Arts Commission then reviews the proposals and either recommends an
artist /s to the Mayor and Common Council for acquisitions or requests more
detailed proposals from selected artists.
3.2 INVITATIONAL: The Fine Arts Commission may recommend a limited
number of artists on the basis of interview or review of previous work. The
artists are then invited to develop a site - specific proposal for a particular
project. The artists may then present a proposal to the Commission. The
1 Commission reviews the submitted proposals and recommends acquisitions to
the Mayor and Common Council.
i 3.3 DIRECT: A majority of the members of the Commission may invite a
particular artist /s that the Commission feels are particularly well qualified for
a project to submit a proposal directly to the Commission without a
competition process.
3.4 COMMUNITY INITIATED PUBLIC ART: Members of the public may
n� submit a proposal directly to the Commission. Any proposal must be received
or- by the Office of the City Clerk no later than 10 days before the next meeting
` ' of the Commission to be considered for an agenda. A proposal may be
�(1 submitted during the Public Comments portion of a regular meeting, but
cannot be acted upon until the next meeting of the Commission.
IV. ACQUISITION PROCEDURE
4.1 STEP ONE — The Commission defines a public art project by selecting the
location (ensuring that the location is on City of San Bernardino property) and
the method of selection (see Section III).
4.2 STEP TWO — The Commission develops a Call for Artists / Request for
Proposals. The Call should include the proposed budget for the project.
4.3 STEP THREE — The Call is considered by the appropriate department charged
with management of the particular location selected, such as, the Board of
Library Trustees, the Board of Water Commissioners, the Director of Parks, or
the Director of Public Works. If approved, the Call is then submitted to the
Mayor and Common Council for approval and published.

6.4 Prolonged protest of the work persists to the extent that the work detracts
rather than enhances the site and the community.
6.5 The work acts as an encumbrance to the use of public property.
6.6 The public use of the site has changed or is proposed to change in a manner
that is no longer comp atible with the artwork.

10.2 Is there a simpler way of saying this? "building and grade elevation and building facades,"
is scary to some people. Could we include something like "a photograph of the area /wall on
which the art will be placed."
Section Eleven
As we discussed at the FAC meeting, some of this may be accomplished through the "mapping"
project for which a grant application has been made. I do think it is important to assess what we
currently have whether we get the grant or not.
We are only talking about art on City Facilities. That certainly should be possible within six
months. I think we should leave it as is. Perhaps Commissioners can take responsibility for
checking out their own wards!
