7. Chairman, F.A.C., reported on art for the new building. A contract has
been signed with James Sanborn for a sculpture. We still have to approve
his design; no monies will be paid should we disapprove it. Matt Mulligan,
awarded the contract for an interior design motif, has declined to accept
it, and the National Endowment for the Arts is searching for a substitute
artist.
8. Following a meeting with Jim Baker, the F.A.C. is awaiting a reply from
the DCI regarding the tentative choice of Kinsler to paint his official
portrait.
9. Other items: It was determined that bust of George Bush, as a
representation of a former DCI was appropriate for us to have on display,
despite some complaints of political favoritism during the campaign season;
chairman, F.A.C. will write letter to the woman who complained about the
quality of some frames on the DCI portraits.
