RESOLUTION NO. 0602-08-119: APPROVAL OF MINUTES ADOPTED
RESOLVED, that this Commission does hereby approve the Minutes of the Meeting of May 5, 2008.

NOTE: ALL ADOPTIONS ARE UNANIMOUS UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED.
President’s Report
President Johnston reported that he, Vice President Draisin, Mr. Cancel and representatives of the Mayor’s Office visited Donald Fisher’s offices at the Gap to view the Fisher Collection, which he found most remarkable, and to listen to a very informative presentation of their proposal for the Contemporary Art Museum of the Presidio (“CAMP”). President Johnston acknowledged that the proposal is somewhat controversial, but as he learned more about it, he became more enthusiastic.

Referring to the Executive Committee minutes, President Johnston noted that the Committee received a presentation on the feasibility study on the old Gallery site at 155 Grove Street, and a potential partnership with a nonprofit arts organization to create an arts center at that corner.

President Johnston explained that Mr. Cancel would report on the budget after having attended the Mayor’s budget presentation earlier in the day. He added that budget cuts are being felt Citywide, noting that negotiations with the City’s unions will affect the agency’s final budget. He reported that staff has already begun hearing from the Cultural Centers and grantees about their budget concerns. He called for the Commission to support staff as they grapple with these challenges.

President Johnston referred to the flyer for the Arts Town Hall to be held on June 9, reminding Commissioners of Cultural Equity Grants Program Director San San Wong’s presentation on the event at the Commission’s May meeting. He added that this would be an important inaugural for the Bay area arts community.

He reminded the Commission of the upcoming San Francisco Symphony Summer in the City series, presented by the Arts Commission. He encouraged Commissioners to attend, and announced the free concert at Dolores Park on Sunday, July 20.

President Johnston reported that the San Francisco Black Film Festival was featured on the cover of the San Francisco Chronicle’s Datebook section, noting that the festival would begin later that week, celebrating its tenth anniversary.

Finally, President Johnston announced that the Commission would receive a report and presentation from WritersCorps, wrapping up its fourteenth year and making preparations to celebrate its fifteenth anniversary. He referred to the program’s latest book, distributed to the Commissioners.
Director’s Report
Director of Cultural Affairs Luis R. Cancel announced that the Mayor presented a very sobering picture of the current state of the economy and the challenges for the City. He reported the Mayor’s proposal to eliminate over 1,000 positions, including 450 currently filled, despite efforts to minimize the impact. Mr. Cancel explained that the Arts Commission, along with other departments, had participated fully in three rounds of budget review, seeking cuts of eight percent, with a five percent contingency, and an eight percent personnel target. The required cuts will be met by cutting grants and the Community Partnerships initiative.

He reported that the Cultural Centers and the Arts Commission have done relatively well, mainly due to the substantial and healthy growth in tourism and to bond financing for capital expansion. He reported that San Francisco hosted some 16 million visitors, who put $8.2 billion into the city’s coffers; foreign visitors increased to 2.3 million last year. Mr. Cancel pointed out that the main driver of tourism is the desire to visit the city’s cultural attractions. He said that it is important to find an effective way to measure that impact, to support the argument for spending on the cultural sector. He noted that the Hotel Tax Fund brought in some $225 million last year. On the capital side, he noted that the Airport’s expansion of its international terminal, Muni’s Central Subway, the Transbay Terminal and General Hospital’s renovation all require two percent of their funding for art, generating four new positions in the Public Art Program.

Mr. Cancel is moving forward with the educational initiative targeting middle schools, the Cultural Voucher Youth Program. At a cost of $375,000, with the collaboration of the Department of Children, Youth and Families and the San Francisco Unified School District, the program is intended to reach every sixth-grader enrolled in a San Francisco public school, as well as their teachers and some of the school administrators. The goal is for the City to pioneer this new initiative to engage and teach the next generation of informed cultural patrons.

Mr. Cancel reported that one of the Mayor’s goals is energy conservation. Toward this end, Arts Commission staff has begun working with the organizations operating the Cultural Centers to help them become more energy-conscious and energy-efficient. Beginning with their July 1 lease agreements, the Centers will be expected to assume energy costs, and Arts Commission staff will work with them to help tap into energy initiatives through the City.

Mr. Cancel reported that he and the staff are working on a number of interagency collaborations. Echoing President Johnston, he was very excited about the recent presentation on the CAMP proposal; the collection would be the pride of any city in the world. He thought it fortunate that Donald and Doris Fisher want to maintain the collection in San Francisco, creating a facility with a strong financial base and a commitment to public education. Mr. Cancel said that the building is designed to integrate easily into the surrounding complex, blending into the landscape; he found it commendable for its lack of ostentation, unlike the flashy buildings designed by many high-profile architects. He reported that he is continuing his fact-finding, meeting with the Presidio and with conservation groups, and will prepare a full report on the pros and cons for the Commission.

Mr. Cancel reported that he has been working with the Redevelopment Agency to move forward on the Mexican Museum at Yerba Buena. He said that they have some decisions to make soon, and that they will ask the Arts Commission to play a fiduciary and oversight role with the Museum. The Redevelopment Agency has not yet approved a final Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”); he promised to share it with the Commission when they do.

Mr. Cancel noted that the coming Arts Town Hall was quickly oversubscribed, and that the arts community has shown tremendous interest, already calling for a second round.

Finally, drawing the Commission’s attention to the packet of clippings distributed to them, he reported that the Gallery, and the agency as a whole, received a number of reviews, announcements and other press coverage in the past year. He praised the staff for a great job getting the word out despite the lack of an information officer.

Committee Reports and Committee Matters
1. Community Arts, Education and Grants Committee—Maya Draisin, Chair
  1. Vice President Draisin introduced WritersCorps Project Manager Janet Heller, for the bittersweet goodbyes to teachers Beto Palomar and Mahru Elahi.
    
    Ms. Heller thanked all of the 2007-2008 teachers, and then spoke about Ms. Elahi’s tenure with WritersCorps, praising her as always willing to take on more responsibility, and a talented teaching artist. Ms. Elahi led the youth intern program, teaching at Ida B. Wells and Sanchez schools, and she expanded the program’s work with Intersection for the Arts. Ms. Heller introduced Eric Foster, one of Ms. Elahi’s students and winner of the Martin Luther King Freewrite this year. He was honored to speak about his teacher, saying there were not enough words to express all she had done for him. He recalled meeting her when he was 16, thinking poetry was just for people who were “soft,” but he wrote his first poem in her class. He thanked her for her honest feedback, for teaching him about life as well as poetry, and for taking time with her students.
    
    Turning to Beto Palomar, Ms. Heller expressed her deep respect for him, for his intellect and his heart. She said that he had taught more than a thousand students, and that he encourages students to find their own voices, to think, and to take action with words. She noted that he was a protégé of the great June Jordan, and a talented multimedia artist who designed several of the covers for WritersCorps publications. Ms. Heller wished him well in his new life in New Hampshire, and introduced his teacher, Ricardo Elizalde.
    
    Mr. Elizalde said that he had been glad to have Mr. Palomar in his classroom at International Studies Academy (“ISA”) for five years. He recalled one student who used to sleep in the back of Mr. Elizalde’s classroom, but who woke up and participated when Mr. Palomar began working with the class. He introduced Angela Starks, a student of Mr. Palomar’s at ISA, who was planning to read her work at the Giants game the next day.
    
    Ms. Starks thanked Mr. Palomar for opening up opportunities for her, and helping her to become a better writer.
    
    Vice President Draisin, visibly moved, thanked the speakers, who so evidently benefited from the ability and caring of Ms. Elahi and Mr. Palomar. She praised their work, saying they were not only developing strong words, but were changing the direction of people’s lives; quite an accomplishment. On behalf of the Commission, she wished them the best, assuring them that the work they’ve done will continue to inspire.
    
    With a round of applause, Ms. Elahi and Mr. Palomar were presented with framed photos.
    
    Ms. Heller closed by reminding everyone of the WritersCorps reading at the following day’s Giants game, where Ms. Starks and Mr. Palomar would read their work at home plate. She presented Mr. Cancel with a Giants shirt and cap.
    
    Vice President Draisin presented the following motion.
  2. RESOLUTION NO. 0602-08-150: Motion to approve the following individual as a grants application review panelist for Cultural Equity Grants:
    
    Aide Rodriguez, Development Manager of Institutional Support, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts
2. Executive Committee—P.J. Johnston, Chair
  1. President Johnston referred Commissioners to the Committee’s minutes, saying that his and Mr. Cancel’s reports mostly covered the Committee’s discussions. He thought the Committee was enthusiastic about the possibility of the partnership for the Grove Street site, and that it would be crucial to ensure the visibility of the Arts Commission generally, and the Gallery specifically, within the partnership.
    
    He also reported that Ms. Wong had brought an interesting series of studies on the arts ecology. The Committee voted to contract with a nonprofit expert in the field, furthering the Commission’s goals of better assessment of the arts in the city, the region and the nation, positioning itself to be a leader. He presented the following motion.
  2. RESOLUTION NO. 0602-08-151: Motion to increase the grant agreement with the San Francisco Community Initiatives Fund for a total grant not to exceed $35,000 to support an arts education intern.
3. Civic Design Committee—Jeannene Przyblyski, Interim Chair
  1. In the absence of Commissioner Przyblyski, Commissioner Hunter reported that the Committee had two new members, Commissioners Bihan and Delaney, in attendance, who brought energy and high standards. He briefly reported on some library renovations, noting that Commissioner Delaney proposed a more playful approach. The Committee also reviewed the Mather Center near Hetch Hetchy; Commissioner Przyblyski has long advocated that it have public art, since it draws visitors from all over the world.
    
    Commissioner Hunter presented the following motion:
  2. RESOLUTION NO. 0602-08-152: Motion to approve Phase 3 of the Sunnyside Conservatory Renovation.
4. Street Artists Committee—Alexander Lloyd, Chair
  1. In the absence of Commissioner Lloyd, President Johnston reported that the Committee had not met due to lack of quorum. The Committee is next scheduled to meet in July. He praised Commissioner Lloyd for taking the Committee’s work so seriously, suggesting that this Committee most directly affects individual people’s lives.
    
    President Johnston referred Commissioners to the new Committee assignments; this Committee again has five members. He explained that he supported the recent staff recommendation to reduce the frequency of meetings to every other month, and reminded all Commissioners of the critical necessity of attending their scheduled Committee meetings.
    
    President Johnston presented the following motions.
  2. RESOLUTION NO. 0602-08-153: Motion to approve requests by former certificate-holders for priority issuance of certificate with waiver of re-screening of wares: Rosario Cascone, Daniel Hennessey, Wing W. Chan, Michael Rodman, Tat-Wah Mou, Sarah Huntoon, Min Xiong Li, Zhong Ru Fang, Angela Godoy, Robert Eisenhart, Masashi Imajo.
  3. RESOLUTION NO. 0602-08-154: Motion to approve requests by applicants for waiver of 15-day policy in obtaining certificate: Shao Yue Chen, Ramesh Chindam, Edward Freeland.
5. Visual Arts Committee—Jeannene Przyblyski, Chair
  1. In the absence of Commissioner Przyblyski, Commissioner Hunter reported that the Committee had discussed a great number of issues. He thanked the wonderful staff for presenting all the ideas so clearly, adding that the Committee could see how much work they do to make projects happen.
    
    He said that Gallery Director Meg Shiffler presented an extensive Gallery report, including a discussion of the upcoming fundraising event to be held on June 14, 2008 at Electric Works. He invited her to speak to the full Commission.
    
    Ms. Shiffler explained that this new event, replacing the fall fundraiser held in past years, marked a new fundraising strategy. Rather than leveraging donations of work by artists for sale at a big gala auction, the new strategy calls for two or three more intimate events (100 people or so), with a higher ticket price, a more educational focus, allowing for more interaction with the artists. This first event features artist Ala Ebtekar producing a print onsite at Electric Works, formerly well-known as Trillium Press. The event will also include dinner and a talk; part of the ticket price can be applied to the purchase of a print. This format can benefit the artist as well, connecting him with potential patrons. She explained that the ticket is not tax-deductible for those who attend the event, but that anyone who could not attend was welcome to make a tax-deductible donation.
    
    At Commissioner Hunter’s request, Ms. Shiffler summarized the rest of her report. She encouraged the Commissioners to walk past the Grove Street windows to see the installation by Paul Hayes, a three-dimensional “drawing” of thousands of pieces of twisted paper. She reported that a small group including Arts Commission staff and a representative of the Mayor’s Office on Disability (“MOD”) had met with artist Bill Fontana for a sound test in preparation for a major sound installation artwork in the City Hall Rotunda scheduled for January, 2009. They received very valuable feedback from the MOD. Mr. Cancel added that the effect of the sound was remarkable; just as bats rely upon echolocation to perceive their surroundings, the sounds he heard gave a sense of depth of the Rotunda, different from the visual sense of it. Both he and Ms. Shiffler thought the work was very exciting.
    
    She announced the new show opening June 12 at 401 Van Ness, A Complicated Dominion, and invited Commissioners to the pre-opening reception. She described the works in the show as allegorical storytelling with animal images, gorgeous and politically loaded.
    
    Commissioner Hunter thanked her for her impromptu update, and suggested that it would be worthwhile to have a more formal report to the full Commission on the Gallery soon, calling it the Commission’s portal to the world.
    
    He reported that the installation of the Harvey Milk Memorial bust at City Hall brought up the question of how to decide where the work would be placed. Public Art Program Director Jill Manton and Public Art staff are working with City Hall staff and the City Hall Preservation Advisory Commission to develop a process for determining the placement of such works in City Hall.
    
    Commissioner Hunter gave a brief overview of recent and upcoming Public Art installations, including the Peace Symbol designed by Tony Labat, which will be installed in Patricia’s Green in Hayes Valley. The Committee also discussed the Manolo Valdés sculptures in the Civic Center Plaza, and the Louise Bourgeois Spider at the Embarcadero. Artist Patrick Dougherty proposed a piece for the Civic Center for winter 2009, weaving recycled branches into trees planted there. The Committee reviewed a proposal by Wowhaus for the Sunnyside Conservatory, consisting of a number of small bronze imaginary animals; he noted the Civic Design Committee’s concern about possible theft of the small sculptures.
    
    Commissioner Hunter introduced the first motion below by commending Public Art Program Project Manager Judy Moran for her longtime stewardship of the Art on Market Street program, which for many years was the City’s only venue for temporary public artwork.
    
    Commissioner Hunter explained that Public Art Program Senior Manager Susan Pontious has negotiated a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the Airport which resolves maintenance procedures and expenditures for artworks at the Airport; the second motion below authorizes this MOU. Commissioner Hunter congratulated her for this successful resolution to a longstanding issue.
    
    Finally, Commissioner Hunter advised that the Committee has begun discussing the Central Subway, which will generate funds for a lot of art, from both internationally known and local artists.
    
    President Johnston added his thanks to Ms. Manton and Public Art staff for their hard work on the Harvey Milk Memorial.
  2. RESOLUTION NO. 0602-08-155: Motion to approve artist Jenifer K Wofford’s preliminary kiosk poster series proposal for the Art on Market Street 2008 Program and to authorize the Director of Cultural Affairs to enter into contract with Jenifer K Wofford for the Final Design of six original poster designs and the installation of four reproductions of each design for installation in Market Street kiosks from September 22, 2008 to December 18, 2008, with auxiliary program events in an amount not to exceed $18,000.
  3. RESOLUTION NO. 0602-08-156: Motion to approve a Memorandum of Understanding between the Airport and the Arts Commission, which shall apply to art enrichment and art maintenance expenses between July 1, 2007 and June 30, 2017, and which outlines the procedures and policies for the selection of art for the Airport and collection management responsibilities, art enrichment funding formulas, and other issues related to the coordination and cooperation between the Airport and the Arts Commission relative to the Public Art Program at the Airport.
