UTSA artwork must be moved by designated staff

By Tim Brownlee
Assistant Director of Public Affairs

(April 8, 2009)--If your office is moving, and there is UTSA-owned artwork on the walls -- don't pack the art or move it yourself. Or, if you want artwork in your office changed, don't take it down.

According to university policy, UTSA-owned art can be packed and moved only by personnel designated by the Office of the President. Attempting to remove artwork by unauthorized staff members can cause damage to the valuable artwork and to the wall.

To determine if artwork in your area is university-owned or to make arrangements to relocate it, call Arturo Almeida, UTSA art specialist, at (210) 458-4983.

UTSA-owned art is defined as items acquired through the UTSA Public Art Committee or purchased for public display by the UTSA Office of the President, excluding Texas Folklife Festival posters.

For more information, contact Jon Mosel, capital asset manager, at (210) 458-6130.
