Commissions checklist

13 Relocation and deterioration

• Will the artist be notified if the work is relocated or sold?
• Will the artist be notified in advance of any proposed alteration to the site? Note: Ideally the artist should be notified of any proposed alteration to the site that would affect the intended character and appearance of the work.
• If the work is ephemeral in nature or created by the artist to deteriorate over time, who will have the authority to declare that the work should be removed from the site and who will be responsible for the associated costs?
