Our experience has been the opposite:  a private entity wants to place a sculpture on public land, generally a park or a greenway. We work with the city to make sure the owner of the sculpture insures and maintains it, and the city executes a MOU with the private property owner. (to be clear--the Arts Council is a private nonprofit organization but we do a lot to interface with the city on a variety of things)

Dear Public Art Network,

 

I am looking for examples of other municipalities that have placed public art sculptures on private property and how the legal agreement was structured.  For example, was an easement granted to the City by the property owner?

 

Thank you for your input!
