Sinossi

Public Art Funding explores the intricate relationship between art and politics, revealing how government and institutional funding shapes the art we see in public spaces. This book delves into the sources of funding, from government allocations to private donations, and investigates the decision-making processes for selecting artists and artwork. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial, as public art often reflects a community's values. The book examines the evolution of public art funding from the New Deal era to contemporary models, highlighting controversies surrounding artistic merit and cultural representation. For instance, public art can sometimes lead to debates over censorship or cultural appropriation. By analyzing case studies and various funding models, the book sheds light on the ethical considerations and potential biases inherent in the system. The book progresses from foundational concepts to historical context, case studies, ethical considerations, and strategies for improvement, culminating in recommendations for policymakers and community members. This comprehensive approach, drawing from fields like political science and urban planning, offers a unique perspective on the political, economic, and social factors influencing public art.

In Canopy of Titans, Paul Koberstein and Jessica Applegate examine the global importance of the Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest that stretches from Northern California to Alaska. Their urgent and authoritative account sets out the threats facing a vital environmental resource, and celebrates the beauty and complexity of one of the world's great forests. 
 
 
 
Drawing on years of on-the-ground reporting, Koberstein and Applegate pull back the curtain on policies of governmental bodies that have seriously diminished the rainforest's capacity to store carbon, and uncover industry practices that have led to the destruction of swaths of a major ecological resource.
