ixia - Public Art Professional Development Seminar 5: Public Art and the Planning System
Places Matter! has partnered with ixia, the public art think tank, to deliver a series of public art seminars in the Northwest.
The seminars will enable attendees to reflect upon contemporary public art practice and to develop their understanding of specific contexts and issues which support and influence the delivery of public art. The seminars have been devised for artists, curators, public art consultants and representatives of public and private sector organisations that promote and commission public art. In addition to hearing from speakers, attendees will be encouraged to engage actively in discussions and to reflect upon their own work in relation to the issues discussed.

Cost: The cost for each seminar is £60.00 + VAT including lunch and refreshments. You will be invoiced upon making a provisional booking for the event. Your place will be confirmed when payment has been received.
The seminars are supported by Arts Council England: www.artscouncil.org.uk
Seminar 5: Public Art and the Planning System
Seminar Location: Preston Guildhall, Preston, Lancashire
Date: Wednesday 24 February 2010, 10.00am - 4.00pm (registration 9.30am)
This seminar will present ixia's findings from its ongoing review of the relationship between public art and the planning system. It will include guidance on: the implications of the Advice ixia commissioned from a leading planning barrister, Ian Dove QC, which states that local authorities can now require, rather than merely encourage, the provision of public art via the planning system; the purpose and content of a policy, strategy and Supplementary Planning Document for public art; and the potential impact of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) on the provision of public art. The seminar will be led by Jonathan Banks, Chief Executive of ixia.
