Motion seeks rules for removing artwork from the city's art collection
Los Angeles has no policy for deaccessioning any of the more than 2,000 artworks it owns and displays in public buildings.
The city would get a written process, with professional review and documentation, for deciding when artwork can be removed or sold from its public collection. Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez asks the Chief Legislative Analyst and the Department of Cultural Affairs to report back on a proposed policy.
