County OKs #100,000 For Local Art Projects

COURT HOUSE - County freeholders have okayed

$50,000 apiece for original art for the proposed Crest

Haven Nursing Home and the Courts Complex. t That comes under a county policy adopted in June of 1983 to provide "up to Ihi percent of the cost" of public buildings for original works of art. The $50,000 represents .8 of one percent of the estimated $6 million cost of the new courts facility, and .5 of one percent of the estimated $9 million cost of the new county home. That's a Considerable percentages-eduction from the only previous use of that policy, an appropriation of not quite $10,000 for the Upper Cape Branch Library- for which ground was broken Saturday. Using the library's original estimated cost of $700,000, the art work amounted to 1:4 percent. But the library had to be rebid, will cost $895,000, and the art work amounts to 1.1 percent. Freeholder James S. Kilpa trick Jr., who is the liaison to the Cape May County Cultural and Heritage Commission, said the $50,000 was "an appropriate figure. "Going 1 to m percent would ^ave resulted in too much money for art work," said Kilpa trick. \ He sbid he hoped the art \ for thC courts complex >vould tfe "merged into the ^architecture of the v-bofldmg, built in, not hung on." Artists will be invited to submit proposals to be judged by an arts inclusion committee for each project. The committees will include Kilpa trick, each project's architect, an art consultant, and persons from the Cultural and Heritage Commission The policy of buying art work for county buildings came after- Phyllis Cata noso, *wife of Freeholder Director Anthony T. Catanoso, made the proposal in behalf of the Cultural and Heritage Commission, of which she was a member. She has since been replaced by Mrs . Kilpatrick.
