Our Historic Preservation Commission has a "Certificate of Appropriateness" process that anything, including public art, has to go through to make physical changes in a historic district. It's well documented
and there is plenty of access to the staff to work through it in advance. We've done it for all kinds of artwork including integrated pieces. The only trouble we've had is for digital work.

These are all extremely helpful and applicable examples. They will do the job nicely 😊
Lynn, one impediment from folks appreciating the artwork is that there has been a huge clash with our Historical Commission. Some do not agree that it actually is artwork because it is integrated into a building. They argue it is a façade. Examples of similar work have been dismissed as “the type of thing for a larger city – not us”. So examples of work integrated into a building would be great, especially if they are in a smaller city and somewhat celebrated.
This issue will set a precedent for us. Integrating artwork into construction is a focus area of our ten-year plan and so subsequently we will better define the ordinances to deal with the next one that comes down the line.
How do other cities with Historic Districts navigate the approval of public art? Examples of ordinances that give Public Art Commissions credence would be fantastic.
Thanks so much!! I feel like I have a lifeline because of this listserv!

Hi, Jo
All of these examples so far are of free-standing, monumental artworks. Were you asking about art that is integrated into a building, that is constructed concurrent with that building? Like a terrazzo floor, for example?

Subject: I Need Names of Iconic Artworks That Had A Rocky Start
Hi PAN Pals,
City Council is reviewing our first major project that integrates public art into building construction drawings. Due to a lack of understanding about this type of work and unfortunate press, many community members are outraged against it, including our Historical Commission. (Many are for it as well)
Council is voting tonight and I would love to give them examples of some iconic public artworks that when first shown to the public people were up in arms about. I want to make the point that it is necessary to trust the vision of artists commissioned by the Public Art Advisory Board because if we just see with our eyes of today we will stay in today. Can anyone give me the names of a few that would be easily recognized by the general public?
Thanks so much!
Jo
