The City of Newport Beach has contracted with Arts Orange County (ArtsOC) to manage the planning, selection and installation of 10 works of public art that will be exhibited for two years throughout the 14 acre Civic Center Park that surrounds and includes its new City Hall, dedicated last May. ArtsOC will be assisted by Los Angeles-based Green Public Art in curating and installing the exhibition, which will be comprised of temporary loans of art works by artists selected through an open call, through referrals by museum and gallery curators, and juried by an independent panel of experts. Recommendations will be reviewed by the City Council, which has the responsibility for their final approval. The target date for completing the installation is September 2014. Details of the Call for Artist proposals will be announced soon.
