DISCUSSION ITEMS • Update to the Municipal Complex Art Projects for Site #1 Site #2 and Site #3; Update Founder's Park Art Project. Staff Summary PAAB Liaison Ehrlich reported on the progress with the Founder's Park CIP project "CATCH" noting that the sculpture installation had been installed Monday, January 17, 2011. Some corrections were being made to the bases to change the color of the cement along the sides of the bases to better match the top of the base and the sculpture color. Ehrlich reported lighting had been ordered for the Site #1 monoliths by Steve Gillman but had not been received to install. This should be completed sometime this month. The Living Lenses sculpture was completed and staff had received pictures of the sculpture which appeared to be the same as the original proposal however the artists were still working with the audio that would be installed within the sculpture and accessed at the kiosks in the library and recreation center. She reported that these should be completed soon and installation was estimated to be sometime late February 2011. Ehrlich updated the board regarding the Site #3 Teatro XIX sculpture by Herk van Tongeren. She reported the base had been poured. The sculpture would be installed once the adjustments were made to the brackets that would hold the sculpture on the base. Estimated timeline was January or early February. Once the piece was installed, Michael van Entry would begin the cleaning and patina process, contingent upon the weather. January 20, 2011 Wylie Public Arts Advisory Board Meeting Minutes 2 BUSINESS ITEMS 1. Consider and act upon approval of the minutes from the December 16, 2010 Public Arts Advisory Board meeting. (C. Ehrlich, PAAB staff liaison) Board Action A motion was made by board member Spillyards, seconded by board member Harrison to approve the minutes as presented with one change, omitting "small" from the first line, second paragraph of the discussion item for the Art Festival. A vote was taken and the motion passed 5-0 with board members Burt and Gaudreau absent. 2. Consider and act upon final review and approval of "CATCH" by Madeline Wiener, Founder's Park CIP Art Project to include final payment of $10,000.00 for installation and final inspection. (C. Ehrlich, PAAB staff liaison) Board Discussion Each board member had been asked to review the sculptures prior to the board meeting. Members spoke about the sculptures and how well they fit the space. Board member Harris noted that she had gone to the art site and taken pictures of the placement of the sculptures and how well they looked in that space. Board members discussed the uneven look of the bases and asked that the bases be completed prior to final payment. Ehrlich explained to the board that the bases were being redone along each side to better match the color of the top of the bases and the colors within the dolometic stone. She explained the process would more than likely not exactly match, but would allow a closer color and uniform texture. Board Action A motion was made by board member Harrison, seconded by board member Dougherty to approve the installation and final review of the Founder's Park CIP Art Project by Madeline Wiener contingent upon the completion of an overlay of the sides of the bases holding the sculptures to make the cement color more uniform with the top of the bases. A vote was taken and the motion passed 5-0 with board members Burt and Gaudreau absent. ADJOURNMENT With no other business before the board, a motion was made by board member Harrison, seconded by board member Spillyards to adjourn the meeting at 6:54 p.m. A vote was taken and the motion passed 5-0 with board members Burt and Harrison absent.
