Greetings Listserv-

 

It was great seeing many of you in Minneapolis last week! A few quick questions from Austin Art in Public Places about warranties:

 

In your artist agreements, do you address warranties on artworks that include technology (such as sound, light, digital media) differently than artworks in other media (stone, metal, murals) and, if so, how?

 

What about artwork that includes new, non-standard and/or proprietary materials that may be affected by technology changes, or bring unexpected results such as color fading, or updated standards?

 

For what length of time do you ask artists to warranty their work once it is complete? Do you vary the length of time based on your sense of perceived risk?

 

Example language and general “lessons learned” advice will be much appreciated!

 

Thanks-

Curt Gettman
