The legislature finds that the mission of the state foundation on culture and the arts is to promote, perpetuate, preserve, and encourage culture and the arts as central to the quality of life and people of Hawaii. One of the foundation's strategic priorities includes increasing public accessibility to arts and culture. The foundation administers the state art museum and the art in public places and relocatable works of art programs, using the works of art special fund created pursuant to section 103-8.5, Hawaii Revised Statutes. The museum and these programs aim to support, promote, and recognize the excellence of the State's diverse artists and create, display, and maintain in public places and the state art museum a collection of works of art that represent the diversity and excellence of the State's artistic expression and provide the fullest possible access to the highest quality aesthetic and educational experiences available to all the citizens of the State. The purpose of this Act is to further the foundation's endeavors by allowing forty per cent of the works of art special fund to be used for the support and promotion of performing arts in the State. SECTION 2. Chapter 9, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding a new section to part III to be appropriately designated and to read as follows: "§9- Definitions. As used in this part: "Display" includes the posting of a recording of works of art at presentation sites maintained by the foundation or the state art museum for public view and listening. "Works of art" includes works of performing arts; provided that meet the following criteria: (1) The performance is recorded on an audio file, video file, audiovisual file, or other medium intended to be shown by or through the use of machines or devices such as projectors, viewers, or electronic equipment or device, together with accompanying sounds, if any; (2) The recording of the performance is archived and maintained by the foundation or the state art museum as property of the State; (3) The State has whole and exclusive copyrights in the performance and its recordings pursuant to the works made for hire doctrine under federal copyright laws; and (4) The recording of the performance is displayed for viewing and listening at presentation sites and in a format determined by the comptroller and the foundation to be most easily accessible to the public." SECTION 3. Section 9-1, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding a new definition to be appropriately inserted and to read as follows: ""Performing arts" means arts or skills that are intended to be performed for an audience. "Performing arts" includes dance choreography, singing, lyrics, motion pictures, music, theater, pantomime, screenplays, sound recordings, and similar types of works." SECTION 4. Section 103-8.5, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended to read as follows: "§103-8.5 Works of art special fund.
