'82' AGENDA STATEMENT
HERITAGE AND CULTURAL ARTS COMMISSION
MEETING DATE: September 11, 2008
SUBJECT: Shannon Community Center-Public Art Modification
Report by John Hartnett, Heritage & Cultural Arts Manager
ATTACHMENTS: l. Mosaic Design for Fountain
2. Mosaic Design for Bridge
3-5. Seat Walls by Fountain
RECOMMENDATION: Receive Report
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION: In December 2007, the City Council approved public art for the
Shannon Community Center which included:
• A Monumental Bas Relief by artists Colin Lambert & Peter Adams for the lobby wall
• Two Murals for the Preschool Area by artist Tricia George
• Mosaic Tile Artwork for the outdoor fountain and bridge by artist Margarita Soyfertis
The original public art project for artist Margarita Soyfertis was to install an approved design for mosaic
tiles on the floor of the existing fountain (Attachment 1), which is situated between the walkway leading
from the parking lot to the bridge leading to the new Shannon Community Center. Additionally, the artist
was contracted to install a second approved design for mosaic tiles on either side of the bridge leading to
the Center (Attachment 2). As part of the Shannon Community Center project, the bridge is in the process
of being re-constructed with new framing and slate tiles.
In the past few months, Staff has been working with artist Margarita Soyfertis and the Shannon
Community Center contractor to determine a way to install mosaic tiles on the bridge. After reviewing
several alternatives, it has been determined that installing mosaic tiles on the bridge is not a viable option
for the artist, due to technical difficulties and maintenance concerns.
Staff has discussed other potential locations for mosaics with the artist, and it is recommended that,
instead of the bridge project, the artist install mosaic tiles with the original design intended for the bridge
on the three seat walls surrounding the fountain (Attachment 3-5). This can serve many purposes by
complimenting the fountain floor mosaic design, enhancing the entry way to the bridge and Shannon
Community Center as well as to create a more inviting seating area for visitors.
COPIES TO: Margarita Soyfertis
ITEM NO.: 8.1
GAIERITAGE COMMISSION~AGENDA STMTS\2008\9-] 1 Shannon Artwork-Modification.doc
Since the total square footage of mosaics for the bridge (346 square feet) and seat wall elements (333
square feet) are very similar, Staff recommends that the budget of $40,000 for the mosaic projects remain
the same.
Staff will be presenting the recommendation for artwork modification to the City Council at the
September 16, 2008 meeting.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission
receive the Report.
