How might you benefit from more public art in your city?

“Moments of shared spectacle are good. A place for visual language, free of explicit corporate interest, is good. Getting into the habit of exploring, examining, and admiring our city’s built environment is good.”

c ARTe BL ANC HE OVE RVIEW

OVERVIEW cARTe Blanche is currently in the process of securing funding for their new venture and identifying opportunities for the future sustainability of their non-profit organization that operates within the Arts & Culture sector of Toronto.

It’s two co-founders, Jordy Gold and Sipo Maphangoh are part of CivicAction’s Emerging Leaders Network and DiverseCity Fellows.

As participating members of 2015 CivicAction Summit, Jordy and Sipo identified an opportunity to leverage the resources invested into public art events like Nuit Blanche, one of the largest in the world, by saving the most exciting art that is created and becoming public art matchmakers.

Their project has recently gained traction with City Officials including Mayor John Tory, the former Chair of CivicAction, who loved the idea and 10

Claire Hopkinson, the CEO of the Toronto Arts Foundation, who highly encouraged applying for the next round of grants. cARTe Blanche has also been selected by the OCAD University Strategic Foresight and Innovation Program to further develop and innovate on the project’s business model.

In recognizing the increasingly important role public spaces play in people’s lives and the short lifespan of public installations at events, cARTe Blanche aims to engage and empower Torontonians to vote on their favourite pieces of art, find more permanent homes for these pieces of art, and create an exciting ongoing collection of public art throughout the city.

CURRENT CAPACITY MAJOR OFFERINGS: PRODUCTS 1) Platform for Public Engagement & Voting 2) Art Installations for Reproduction

SERVICE Coordination for Matchmaking Artists and Venues

cARTe Blanche’s core team is made up of its two cofounders. For the core team, time is very valuable and with full time jobs, both are expected to wear multiple hats to cover the day to day development of the project while meeting with various city officials and venues, identifying potential funding sources and exploring various long term strategies.

CHALLENGES cARTe Blanche is currently exploring different funding options, such as grant writing, that can help them develop their concept and become self-sufficient. They are also in the process of gaining the approval of the City of Toronto to participate in city-organized art and culture events.

What is STEEP V? Trends are patterns of change that indicate significant, directional shifts across the spectrum of lived experience and observation. In practicing Strategic Foresight we encourage breadth by scanning across Social, Technological, Economic, Ecological, Political, and Values (or STEEPV) spectra. Trends have potential for growth and significant long term impact (OCAD U, 2015).

17

cARTe BLANCHE’S CRITICAL UNCERTAINTIES

WHAT ARE CRITICAL UNCERTAINTIES? What are critical uncertainties? In order to study the future we must develop methods to anticipate and map unexpected, divergent future possibilities. And so scenario planners have developed the concept of critical uncertainties: areas of change that are seen as having critical importance to the question at hand — in our case, the future of cARTe Blanche — and, at the same time, are highly uncertain events (OCAD U, 2015).

18

FUNDING Startups operate in an environment dominated by uncertainty, where funding is always a challenge. For NGOs there are two classifications that illustrate how an organization’s funding sources fall into different categories according to the level of restriction applied to the funds and their level of continuity.

CURATION Curation, in this sense, is the selection, preservation, collection and archiving of the art installations or assets. Curation establishes, maintains and adds value to the business model for present and future use.

FUNDING

CURATION

What are the possible sources

What are the possible sources for

Restricted Funds that come into the NGO with terms and conditions about what the funds may or may not be used for (i.e. grants and donors) Unrestricted Funds that come into the NGO without any restriction on how they are used (i.e. membership fees, fundraising and general donations)

Event Driven Art Installations are curated from public art events, such as Nuit Blanche

Community Driven Art Installations are curated from general public submissions

A LOOK INTO POSSIBLE FUTURE(S) FOR VALUE CREATION

20

WHAT ARE SCENARIOS?

NUIT B-LAUNCH

CARTE B-LAUNCH

In Strategic Foresight, Scenarios are collaboratively developed, narrative accounts of possible future situations. Scenarios do not constitute strategic planning but precede and inform it, by describing potential environments in which firms, organizations and individuals will operate. Scenarios explore and amplify selected Signals, Trends and Drivers in the emerging STEEPV landscape. Scenarios do not represent “predictions� but rather possibilities that may come to pass (OCAD U, 2020).

In this scenario, curation is event driven through a partnership with Nuit Blanche and the business model relies on restricted sources of funding such as corporate sponsorship (i.e. Scotiabank).

In this scenario, curation is event driven through other Arts & Culture events in the city and the business model relies more on unrestricted funding sources such as general donations or fees for services.

CLOSE CALL

OPEN CALL

In this scenario, curation is community driven through public submissions and the business model relies on restricted sources of funding such as title sponsors or donors.

What is the Business Model Canvas?

The Business Model Canvas is a tool, preformatted with nine blocks, that allows you to paint pictures of new or existing business models describing the rationale for how an organization creates, delivers and captures value (Osterwalder & Yves Pigneur, 2010).

A Multi-Sided Business Model Platform brings together two or more distinct but interdependent groups of customers. The platform is of value to one group only if the other groups of customers are also present.

The platform grows in value to the extent that it attracts more users, a phenomenon known as the network effect (Osterwalder & Yves Pigneur, 2010).

tion of their installation. By engaging the public in the selection of the art installations, the public feels more connected to their community, delivering value to venues that provide the space for its reproduction.

The model captures value by partnering with Nuit Blanche, one of the largest public art events in the world. By leveraging the event’s established network of artists and attendees and its current affiliation with the City of Toronto and Scotiabank, cARTe Blanche offers an extension of Nuit Blanche’s current value offerings. The model also captures value by charging participating venues for in-kind services such as the security, insurance and maintenance of the installation as well as paying the artist recommended rates for the use of their artwork (CARFAC, 2015).

The Current Business Model

The Recommended Business Model

cARTe Blanche’s current business model is a multi-sided platform that creates value by facilitating interactions between Nuit Blanche artists, Nuit Blanche attendees and Venues.

The recommended business model creates value by facilitating interactions between Artists, Venues and the General Public.

What is a Multi-Sided Platform Business Model?

The model delivers value to Nuit Blanche by engaging its attendees in the selection of the event’s best art installations through public voting and by matchmaking its artists to venues for a more permanent reproduc-

The new model delivers value to the public by engaging them in the selection of the city’s top art installations, curated from various art & culture events, through public voting and by matchmaking the city’s artists to local venues for a more permanent reproduction of their installation. This model

delivers value to different venue types by making public art more accessible and purchasable for private consumption and by engaging the public in the selection of public art for more public consumption.

The model captures value by adding new customer segments who display a need for the current offerings and by charging service fees according to the offering’s worth to the different customers or in this case, venue types. For example, corporations might purchase art installations directly for reproduction in their space whereas a privately owned public space might desire the public selection of the installation and therefore pay in-kind for its reproduction in their space. This model also captures value through the monetization of the “network effect,” benefiting from more general donations as opposed to corporate donations, although it might also be extended to include corporate sponsorship (i.e. donors) in the reproduction of its publically-supported art installations. The new model also ensures the payment of recommended rates to artists for their work (CARFAC 2015).

CONC LUSION This report introduced the value and perception of public art and the valuable opportunity for cARTe Blanche to be public art matchmakers between artists, venues, events and the public.

Reviewing different trends and drivers cARTe Blanche faces two critical uncertainties, funding and curation, that challenges its value offerings yet provides an opportunity to explore different business models and associated actions to succeed. Given the complexity of this initiative, it is recommended that the proposed business model and actions are acknowledged as co-dependent processes that help with the future sustainability of cARTe Blanche.
