TIRANA, August 18 /ATA/ The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sports and the State Ministry for Local Government signed a rule to set up the State Commission for Art in Public Spaces.
Minister of Tourism, Culture and Sports Blendi Gonxhja stated that public art can no longer rely on random choices or chaotic projects in shared areas. A new rule sets strict professional standards to stop amateur or poorly planned art installations in public spaces.
Under the new rules, you first submit your public artwork request to the local municipality. The municipality reviews the papers and sends the idea to the Ministry of Culture. The State Commission then judges the art and design. If the Commission says no, the municipality must reject the request. /k.s/r.e/p.s./
