HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 4.2 - 2980 Temporary Art Display Program Art Selection Page 1 of 3 STAFF REPORT CITY COUNCIL DATE: December 17, 2019 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers FROM: Christopher L. Foss, City Manager SUBJECT: Adirondack Chair Temporary Art Display Program Art Selection Prepared by: Shaun Chilkotowsky, Heritage and Cultural Arts Manager EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The City Council will consider artist design proposals, as part of a Temporary Art Display Program, to paint/decorate Adirondack chairs to be displayed in public places within the City. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission's artist recommendations for the Adirondack Chair Temporary Art Display Program. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The estimated cost for the program is $21,690. This includes artist stipends, the cost of the actual chairs, and miscellaneous supplies to protect the chairs once complete. The funding source is the Public Art fund, and following the display period, the chairs will be auctioned off, with the revenue generated being returned to the Public Art Fun d. DESCRIPTION: On October 15, 2019, City Council approved the Adirondack Chair Temporary Art Display program and approved the theme of “New American Backyard." The Temporary Art Display program will feature 20 Adirondack style chairs that will be unveiled at the 2020 St. Patrick’s Day Festival, put on display locally, and then auctioned off at an event in the Fall of 2020. Staff issued a Call for Artists on October 30, 2019, publicizing the opportunity through normal City outreach channels (website, social media, etc.), as well as via email to a list of interested artists, a list of past Dublin utility box artists, registrants in the Cultural Arts database, nearby art schools, the Dublin Arts Collective and the California Cultural Arts Council website. The deadline to apply was November 29, 2019. According to the City of Dublin’s current Public Art Master Plan, all public artwork must Page 2 of 3 be produced by professional artists or under the direction of a professional artist. Student artists may work under the guidance of a visual arts teacher or practicing visual artist, so students applying for the temporary art Adirondack chair project have been asked to name an adult professional artist who will serve as their sponsor and who is capable of completing the work should the student artist be unable to do so. On December 12, 2019, the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission reviewed artists’ proposals for the Temporary Art Display program. A total of 26 artists submitted 41 different proposals. 20 proposals from 18 artists have been recommended by the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission for City Council approval. Two of the recommended artists will be completing a set of chairs, which is why there are 18 artists for 20 chairs. These artists, plus all the others are: 1. Alexandra Riddle – Orange Succulents 2. Anne Giancola – Poppies and Qual 3. Brittany Nickles – America’s Backyard 4. Colleen Gianatiempo – Down-to-Earth Vibe 5. Daelyn Cerruti – Welcome to Dublin 6. Jessica Yu - Exploration 7.

Growing up in Dublin and loving to explore, there was always a hidden trail to hike down or a hidden beauty to find; and with having many friends live up in the Dublin hills, many of those wonders could be found right out the backyard gate.

In furthering her education, Colleen received a certificate in Graphic Design from Otis Parsons School of Design in Los Angeles which led her to start her own design firm creating design within the disciplines of fine art, graphic art, interior design, photography and art instruction and is still going strong after 26 years. Passion for fine art led her to the Academy of Art in San Francisco where she received a Master of Fine Art in Painting in 2017. Her mixed media work embodies bold color, varying texture, layers of shapes and patterns. Her work has been exhibited in a multitude of solo and group shows and is in numerous public and private collections. Gianatiempo's art studio is in the East Bay of San Francisco where she lives and works. Entry One Love is Key Artist Statement Colleen Gianatiempo I was inspired by the words "Everything you want, right here in your own backyard': I feel that when we speak of a community that the most important ingredient is "LOVE" My entry, "Love is Key" was born out of the hearts that I see in the shamrock of the Dublin City Logo and the recipe for the most important ingredient in a diverse community. Entry Two Down -to -Earth Vibe Artist Statement Colleen Gianatiempo I was inspired by the meaning of "New. American Backyard". The imagery for this concept is ab- straction and expressing community and connections where you can experience everything you want in this design, just like in the great town of Dublin. �TV r L)o 1 Entry One •Love is Key • Colleen Gianatiempo G� key holes will be placed on the top of the arms,the sides and front design will be duplicated %J the back with variations.

I focused on sunflowers because of how they represent visual optimism. Sunflowers display a lively spirit to brighten the world by making people smile and feel communal enthusiasm. The “Welcome to Dublin” design was inspired by travel postcards, and I added it to showcase the welcoming, positive environment sought out in Dublin. The center words of the sunflower on the back are ones I feel are important to people in the community. I included them to remind people of hope and compassion that are represented in art.

White shamrocks and the words “Dublin, California” and the “New American Backyard” are set against the blue background on the seat section of the Adirondack chair. The design is an illustrated homage to Dublin, California and the beautiful landscape and perfect weather that is right in our backyard.

I hope for every wall to be enveloped with color to stimulate the hearts and minds of viewers to step out of their daily routines. I am inspired via hidden details within the natural realm that are reoccurring patterns such as a tiny pistol within a flower that reveals thousands of dots of pollen; or the tip of a dog's nose, like that of pebbles and stones. I open a world that is hidden within our grasp but often overlooked. I create this experience as a deeper chance to dive into my subconscious, fluent in emotion to create work that any viewer may grasp.

 The rendered drawings are whimsical in style and playful in color. American Backyard represents the convening of neighbors, youth and adults alike, in one place to create long-lasting memories.
 Entitled "The Gathering Place" each color in the designs portrays an individual people and families within the Dublin community evolving together to create a greater cohesive body. I designed the art as apart of the chair, sculpture-like, as opposed to a separate painting then placed upon the chair. I desire to accentuate the curves, lines, and features that it offers. 
 I view the chair as a place of rest as it evokes reflection and calm. I envision gatherings and making of memories within and around the chair. Each color within its make up offers an important quality to the design not complete without the other. I intend that the design will activate the space around to create movement in the American Backyard. 
 
 Shweta Agrawal still remembers the first time she picked up a brush and began painting at the age of five. For past 17 years, she continues to have same thrill and excitement when she picks up her palette and brush today. Her enthusiasm and energy have influenced her career towards art. Shweta strives to fully explore and respond to the timeless beauty that surrounds us all. Her art is an endeavor to express the profound formulation of mind and being. Working with the softness of colors of people and vegetation as well as contrast of light and dark, Shweta gets lost in her paintings. She paints in a signature style, wanting her viewers to discover nature and beauty with a different perspective. Shweta paints in acrylics and watercolors; her choice of medium allows her to achieve extra fine detail and complex color enhancements needed to produce visually stunning image. Shweta is the founder of EverPro Kids Inc., which provides fine art programs to K-12 students. She has taught many workshops which include easy to follow strategies to make paintings more interesting and dramatic. Her classes are verbalized in simple to understand terms, making her teaching incredibly compelling. Shweta has displayed her art works in many art exhibits as well and open art studios1, also winning a number of juried competitions. Shweta’s artworks have been selected for exhibits in the Dougherty Station Community Center Art Gallery in San Ramon. The themes of her exhibit are city street views, neighborhood landscapes, and abstract. Shweta is currently the Alternate Commissioner of Heritage and Cultural Art Commission for City of Dublin. Palm spring • This is one of my acrylic pieces from a collection of palm trees titles “Rising High”. The source of inspiration from these series of paintings was from a past vacation to SoCal. Anytime I stepped outside from the midst of Coachella Valley and turned my head to the sky, all I could see was the horizon scattered with giant heads of palms trees. This scene really stood out to me, especially the way the light reflected off the ground onto the palm trees at dawn. Original painting – Palm Spring: 20” X 20” Acrylics on Canvas by Shweta Agrawal Mountain • This acrylic piece was inspired by a snap of Yosemite that I took when I first came to California almost 20 years ago. It is a blissful springtime memorabilia of a lavender garden engrossing the paramount mountains in the background. The purple hue of the painting combines two significant aspects of nature: the calm stability of blue and the fierce energy of red. I used a palette knife to contour shadows on the mountain, a fan brush for the trees, and a variety of brushes for the lavender garden. Original painting – Serenity(Purple Hue): 16” X 20” Acrylics on Canvas by Shweta Agrawal Galaxy • I initially painted this acrylic piece on a denim jacket that was a part of my 17-year-old son’s Halloween costume. The infinite number of stars give the piece a sense of enchantment. As if boiling with stars, the colorful blast of colors in the starry sky is simply eye candy for the viewer. I painted the background with brushes of varying levels of thickness and applied the stars with splatter sponges.

My work is about creating the movement of organic forms and patterns inspired by nature. Material curated from refuse often drives the approach of the projects I pursue. The man-made and natural world informs the themes, colors, and composition in the work itself. As an artist of two cultural traditions, of the East and West, I am constantly marrying the duality in my work. The calligraphic gestures of traditional painting are my brush strokes, even when using bean pods, collecting coffee lids, painting murals or weaving plastics. The beautiful facades of my layered work hides my underlying anxiety, concern and love for the environment. Artists Bio Sophia Lee was born in Taipei, Taiwan and immigrated to Southern California at age 9. Growing up, she moves between the two places, learning languages and crossing cultures. She first studied fashion design then switching to fine art/ painting at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. She moved to New York City and designed and illustrated book covers for St Martin’s Press. When 911 happened, she put into motion her dream of wandering the world. It was while she was in a museum in Kyoto, Japan that she realizes she can never stop creating. Art is the essence of who she is. She has found her voice and there are lots to say. Her first solo exhibit was held in Taipei, Taiwan in 2007, titled “l’arabesque.” Besides showing her work in galleries and other group shows in LA, Portland, NY and the Bay Area, she also paints murals and installation projects. Since NYC, she’s lived in LA, Taipei, Portland, Newport Beach, and now San Francisco. She recently completed her residency at Journal Building Artist Residency program and is now part of the Electric Snail Studio in San Francisco. !1 347.206.5735 solee@barkingowls.com www.BarkingOwls.com SOPHIA LEE Solo/ Duo Exhibitions •Dec, 2019: feature artist at Nana San restaurant, Costa Mesa •Oct, 2019: feature artist at Bebebar, SF •2016 Farley’s Coffee, duo artists exhibit •2016 Table Asia gallery, now Avenue 12 gallery, duo artists exhibit •2011 Peripheral, Pearl Framing & Art gallery, Portland, Oregon •2010 Featured Artist, SOPA gallery, South Pasadena, CA •2007 L’arabesque, SSSoY, Taipei, Taiwan Group Exhibitions 2019 •Kids & Art Fireside chat & charity auction, Palo Alto, CA •The Long Goodbye (July) Spark Arts Gallery, SF, CA •Rhythmix Love Our Island Art Walk, Radical Beauty 7, window installation, Alameda, CA •Beauty in the Periphery, Reclaimed Gallery, SF, CA •Imagine, Hayes Valley ArtWorks, SF, CA •East on West, Senator Scott Wiener office, State Building, SF, CA •White Cube, The Space Gallery, Alameda, CA •12x12, Gallery@Workwell, Irvine, CA •Golden Road x Heal The Bay Pop-Up, Venice, CA 2018 •Sea Changes, SCRAP gallery, Cathedral City, CA •Landscape: real or imagined, SITE: Brooklyn gallery, NY, NY •Vibrant Visions, SF Women’s Art Gallery, SF, CA •Hospitality House annual auction, Minnesota Project, SF, CA •Where I stop Where You Begin, JB artists group show at

 !4 www.BarkingOwls.com SOPHIA LEE Proposal Statement New American Backyard — Inside the Secret Garden This project continues the theme I had began this past year with the illness that has taken over my mother’s life. Her love of everything inside the garden is the source of my inspiration. I want to paint her a beautiful and whimsical “secret garden” where the flowers are always in perfect bloom. Flowers of any kind will bring a smile as bright as the sun to her face. The flowers here are not exactly “realistic” but inside the secret garden, anything is possible. I’d like to paint a second chair that reflects the moonlit garden as well, yin & yang.
 !5 Temporary Public Art- Adirondack Chairs I visualize on painting the chair with my signature mandala and line designs which are noted for attention to details and are strongly inspired by the folk and tribal arts of India. Being an artist of Indian origin and a resident of Dublin CA, I look forward in contributing some art which also reflects and resonates with the South Asian population living here in the tri valley. My design involves my culture, aesthetics, emotions and intellect. The chair shall be created as a statement art and be one of its kind. It will be a significant decorative piece of Art for the exhibit. ARTIST STATEMENT OF THERESA MULEY BLUE SKY KITES “Blue Sky Kites”, created by long-time Dublin resident and artist Theresa Muley, is an Adirondack chair embracing the theme “New American Backyard”, in that it depicts the lovely blue sky and puffy clouds over our beautiful City of Dublin. The focal point, colorful kites, represents the joyful nature and beautiful diversity of the residents of our City. Rather than using acrylic paint, this creation will utilize wood stain, so that the natural beauty of the wood shines through. ARTIST STATEMENT OF THERESA MULEY NUEVO AMERICANA “Nuevo Americana”, created by long-time Dublin resident and artist Theresa Muley, is an Adirondack chair creation celebrating our “New American Backyard”, as it embraces the colors and concepts of the greatest symbol of our Country, the American flag, in a lovingly painted style. Rather than using acrylic paint, this creation will utilize wood stain, so that the natural beauty of the wood shines through. ARTIST STATEMENT OF THERESA MULEY CALIFORNIA POPPIES “California Poppies”, created by long-time Dublin resident and artist Theresa Muley, is an Adirondack chair which pays tribute to our amazing State of California and symbolizes our “New American Backyard”, in that it delights in the beauty and grace of our state flower, which grows in abundance in the hills surrounding our lovely City of Dublin. Rather than using acrylic paint, this creation will utilize wood stain, so that the natural beauty of the wood shines through.

From early childhood she was fascinated by the outdoors. The vibrant colors of the Indian countryside left a strong impression on her. After a graduate degree in English Literature she went on to get a diploma in Fashion Design. In 1996 when she moved to San Francisco, California, with her family, she found everything different except her interaction with nature. In 2005, after a visit to the Louvre Museum in Paris, she realized her true passion for art. She enrolled in the local community college and started her formal art education. She completed her Graduate program at the Academy of Art University, San Francisco, focusing on painting. Combining her love of nature and passion for art, she paints large abstract paintings in vibrant colors. She has a unique process of mark making. Instead of conventional tools like brushes and palette knives, she moves the paint on wood panels using an air blower. Her work is collected by several local art collectors. She won the 2016-17 Clyde & Co Art Award for Emerging Artists, San Francisco and her work was exhibited in the Clyde & Co Offices. She has participated in several juried group and solo shows on the West Coast and has won awards. She has a public art mural in the city of Livermore, California. Her six paintings are installed in the East County Hall of Justice, Dublin, CA, commissioned by the Alameda County Arts Commission. Two lamppost banners of her paintings are currently placed in the Inner Sunset, San Francisco, selected by the San Francisco Women Artists Gallery. Five of her works are in the permanent collection at the Sutter Hospital in San Francisco. Her work can be viewed at https://UshaShuklaArt.com Find her on Facebook and Instagram as UshaShuklaArt She’s at LinkedIn as https://www.linkedin.com/in/ushashukla/ RÉSUMÉ Awards 2019 Artistic Merit Award, Artists Embassy International, Richmond, CA 2018 Best of Show Theme, Pleasanton Art League Member Show, Firehouse Art Center, Pleasanton, CA 2018 Juror’s Choice, Vibrant Vision, San Francisco Women Artists’ Gallery, SF, CA 2018 Hearts in San Francisco Art Installation, San Francisco General Hospital, SF, CA 2018 Juror’s Choice, What Brings Us Joy, San Francisco Women Artists’ Gallery, SF, CA 2018 Public Art Project at ECHOJ, Dublin, Alameda County Arts Commission, Oakland, CA 2018 Best of Show, Pleasanton Art League, Alviso Adobe Community Park, Pleasanton, CA 2016 Clyde & Co.

The Firefly Sunshine design is inspired by my nature walks in the Emerald Glen Park, Dublin, close to my home. On sunny days I see flowers reflecting sunshine as if they were hundreds of fireflies dancing and chirping. This design reflects the energy and activity of Dublin’s diverse and colorful community. Artist Statement Design 2 Gracias Sage I create abstract paintings that distill the light, the intense colors, and the constant movement in nature. This design Gracias Sage is inspired by the greenery I see on my walks in and around Dublin city. I am always fascinated by green, the color of life, renewal, nature, and energy which is aptly seen in the Dublin neighborhood among the diverse and ever-growing community. Hopefully this design will evoke the feeling of the “New American Backyard” because of its earth tones, harmonious color palette, and organic shapes. Artist Statement Design 3 First Day of Spring I created the design First Day of Spring after experiencing the colorful Holi festival of India in Dublin. I am constantly amazed at the diverse community of Dublin living and supporting each other and celebrating together. It is like all the different colored flowers blooming together on the first day of spring. The “New American Backyard” brand is all about people inspiring and supporting each other irrespective of their beliefs which is showcased in Dublin. Hopefully this design will evoke non-judgmental and communal feelings in its viewers.
