5.1 Alterations. The City, having expended considerable public funds to
commission the Artwork, and pursuant to its governmental and proprietary
responsibilities, intends to display the Artwork at the Site as originally created by
Artist and to maintain the Artwork in good condition. The City must preserve
complete flexibility to operate and manage City property in the public's interest.
Therefore, City retains the absolute right to alter the Artwork in City's sole judgment.
For example, City may alter the Artwork to eliminate hazard, to comply with the
ADA, to otherwise aid City in the management of its property and affairs, or through
neglect or accident. If, during or after the term of this Agreement, City finds the Site
to be inappropriate, City has the right to cause the Artwork to be installed at an
alternate location that City chooses in its sole reasonable discretion.
5.2 Waiver. With respect to the Artwork produced under this Agreement,
Artist waives any and all claims, arising at any time and under any circumstances,
against City, its officers, agents, employees, successors and assigns, arising under
the federal Visual Artists Rights Act (17 U.S.C. §§106A and 113(d)), the California
Art Preservation Act (Cal. Civil Code §§987 et seq.), and any other local, state,
federal or international laws that convey rights of the same nature as those
conveyed under 17 U.S.C. §106A, Cal. Civil Code §§987 et seq., or any other type
of moral right protecting the integrity of works of art. If the Artwork is incorporated
into a building or the Site such that the Artwork cannot be removed from the building
or Site without alteration of the Artwork, Artist waives any and all such claims
against any future owners of the Site, and its agents, officers and employees, for
alteration of the Artwork.

shall make reasonable good faith efforts to notify and consult with Artist, at the last
phone number or address provided by Artist to the City, and to come to a mutually
agreeable plan for disposition of the Artwork. Such consultation shall be without
charge by Artist unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing. If the Artwork is
altered and City intends to maintain the Artwork on display, City shall make a
reasonable good faith effort to engage Artist in the restoration of the Artwork and to
compensate Artist for Artist's time and efforts at fair market value,which may be the
subject of a future agreement between Artist and City. However, City has no
obligation under this Agreement to restore the Artwork to its original condition or to
compensate Artist for any restoration work. If Artist fails or refuses to negotiate with
City in good faith with respect to any restoration, City may contract with any other
qualified art conservator or artist for such restoration.
5.4 Disclaimer. If City alters the Artwork without Artist's consent in a
manner that is prejudicial to Artist's reputation, Artist retains the right to disclaim
952040.1 3

may be withheld in City's sole and absolute discretion. In the event of such
unapproved transfer, including any bankruptcy proceeding, this Agreement shall be
void.

the manner, mode or means by which Artist, its agents or employees, perform the
services required herein, except as otherwise set forth herein. City shall have no

Finding Our Way
"Finding our Way" is a playful and informative art installation designed to
direct visitors who are traveling along Palm Canyon Drive to the Palm
Springs Art Museum. The installation takes the form of a classic wayfinding
sign using multiple blade signs to provide useful information and playful
references to the worlds' museums along with quotes on art.
The installation uses the materials and techniques of standard Department
of Transportation signage and hardware. This gives the piece longevity and
resilience to the elements while playing with visual cues that are already
engrained in all of us.
The post will be 14' tall, fluted aluminum. The signs are fabricated to DOT
specifications with aluminum, with engineering grade reflected vinyl.
Price (installed) $9000
