| Many
cities require private developers to allocate a percentage of their
building construction costs for on-site public art. We are experienced
in working with developers and cities to select or commission works
that meet these requirements. |

To
comply with the City of Emeryville (Calif.) public art ordinance,
the owner installed a 3,000-pound bronze sculpture, depicting "escaping"
Queen Anne-style tables as they "run" together and spill
in waves off the roof and sides of the building. We worked with San
Francisco sculptor Brian Goggin, the building’s owner, Ellis
Partners LLC, and the architect to select the artist and oversee the
work's completion. |

For
the interior, we commissioned a mixed-media construction, combining
acrylic, latex and oil on metal and wood, by San Francisco Bay Area
artist Michael Wells. The trompe l’oile effect brings a three-dimensional
feeling to the flat surface and fits nicely into the deconstructionist
lobby of the building that houses several high-tech firms.
