| ixia:
the think tank for public art practice |
|
|
| ixia
are an independent voice for public art, initiating debates, promoting
research and encouraging innovation and change. |
| |
| For
decades public art has played an increasing important role in shaping
the environment but there is still an absence of effective policy
guidelines, and a lack of public understanding of artistic practice.
This has resulted in poor support structures, poor strategic thinking
and a rather limited understanding of short and long-term quality
issues. |
|
| ixia
are a full-time research based organisation at the centre of discussions
into how the policies and processes that are used can be further developed
to progress the roles of artists within the public realm. |
