14、tening script (first part),I=interviewer AC=Art consultantI: Id like to begin by asking you to imagine that Ive been asked to find some art for my companys office. Where would I start?AC: Well, the first stage in selecting art is normally for one of our art consultants to visit you on site to assess
15、 the location, the size of the area and the style of the building and so on.I: How much difference does it make where I actually put the paintings?AC: A great deal. Art needs to be placed taking into account the function of a space. Different types of art are appropriate for different areas. Once we
16、 have an idea about what kind of work it is you do and how the space is used, then be begin to find artworks and present a selection of art for your business and building. We can do this on-site or you can visit our galleries. The whole thing is a two-way collaborative process.I: So you already have
17、 the painting?AC: Yes, or we can ask an artist to create works for your specific space. In this case, the client has some input but its important to remember when choosing workplace art that art is not your brand. If you ask the artist to emphasizes your company image in some way, youll just end up with bad art. Either way, you have an art consultant who oversees and project manages the production of any commissioned artwork and makes sure its completed and installed on time and within budget. And that also includes fitting appropriate lighting and any other maintenance and fitting.,
