You are welcome to start a Task Force in your town, city, or community based on one of the following project-based approaches, or another approach you develop.

The Artist Research Project

This is a project develop by the International Network for the Conservation of Contemporary Art-North America (INCCA-NA) and designed to produce the most up-to-date and comprehensive knowledge about the representation and conservation of a body of artwork by a single artist or artist collective.

For the Artist Research Project, see WP:WikiProject Public art/TheArtistResearchProject.
The first artist selected in this project is Tony Smith. Using the list of Tony Smith outdoor sculptures as a starting point, an effort is underway to document all of the outdoor Tony Smith sculptures in the world before his 100th birthday, September 23.
