Per Cent for Art Scheme
The Per Cent for Art Scheme allows for a percentage cost of a capital Project of a capital project to be used for the commissioning of an art project.
In 1986 the Department of the Environment adopted this scheme and it was initially called “The Artist Embellishment Scheme” and provided the opportunity for Local Authorities to commission permanent sculptural works. Since a review of the scheme, which has since extended to all Government Department with construction budget, the scope of the artwork commissioned under the scheme has also expanded.

County Hall Commissions
In 2000 the council wanted to match the standard and gauntlet presented by the design of the new county hall and so demanded that the council itself make a major contribution to the provision of public art for the building. The Council, Arts Officer Rory O’Byrne and then County Architect David O’Connor ran a two stage competition short listing a variety of prolific artists, inviting them to meet on site with architects and planners, given advice and a fee to make their proposals. These commissions mirrored the young forward thinking local authority committed to the inclusion of art in the lives of its staff and visitors to the council. The three works coming from this commission are well respected and are thought to present a positive corporate image.

Public Art Panel
Panel 2007 – 2013

Nine projects have been completed from this phase taking place across multiple locations our artists have mapped the areas historical, geographical,environmental, cultural and socio political landscape through film, performance, photography,installation and sculpture.
