Content Inside: GRAFFITI AND PUBLIC ART Ashley Frost, Cultural Planning and Development Officer Kiama Municipal Council Paper presented at the Graffiti and Disorder Conference convened by the Australian Institute of Criminology in conjunction with the Australian Local Government Association and held in Brisbane, 18-19 August 2003 2 The expanding definition of public art includes community cultural development projects, memorials, murals, outdoor sculpture, art built-in, ephemeral art, community art, and by some researchers and field workers, graffiti art. The New York City Cultural Program for instance identifies graffiti art as “non administered public art”. In this context art practitioners, policy makers, art administrators and graffiti reduction program mangers need to consider the methods of developing and evaluating public art projects in their local environment. I will discuss a method developed with the University of Wollongong, Councils and community for creating and evaluating public art that uses an evaluative framework. The framework identifies key areas of social, aesthetic, environmental and economic values. This method of evaluation seeks to broaden discussion and understanding of the varied methods of public art practice including graffiti prevention through the arts projects. It encourages social interaction and the development of new partnerships in the creation of public art. The method has been put into practice within the local government areas of Kiama Municipality and Shellharbour City resulting in innovative, cost effective, socially relevant and inclusive public art programs with a strong emphasis on graffiti prevention through the arts. I will present a number of best practice case studies developed through the framework including legal walls, strategic and targeted public art projects and graffiti prevention programs.
