Ms. Manton expressed her concern for the steel plates and the bottom of the sculptures and the possibility of being a tripping hazard.

Commissioner Keehn expressed her appreciation for efforts by the RHAA and the Union Square Association’s to install temporary artwork in Union Square. Commissioner Keehn shared that if the organizations would like to continue to place temporary artwork in San Francisco on a regular basis, that the Arts Commission could work with the groups to acquire higher caliber artwork. Ms. Zeiger said that after attending Streetscape meetings with the Union Square Association, she can see the desire to fill Union Square with more temporary art installation, preferably something that is more authentic to San Francisco. She asked if the Commissioners would be interested in attending the Streetscape meetings. Commissioner Keehn shared her contact information with Ms. Zeiger in order to reach out to her for future meetings.

Lastly, Commissioner Keehn asked if there will be signage. Ms. Zeiger stated that she did not know of any plans to add signage or text with the artwork. Commissioner Silverman asked that if the groups decide to add text, that Ms. Zeiger bring the text Visual Arts Committee for approval. Ms. Zeiger agreed. Ms. Manton suggested attaching any signage to the base, noting it is a temporary art installation.
 
Commissioner Keehn called for public comment. There was no public comment.

B. Terminal 1 Center, TSA Security Checkpoint
Justine Topfer
Action
 
Project Manager Justine Topfer introduced artist Liz Glynn via Skype to the Committee for the presentation of the conceptual designs for Ms. Glynn’s suspended artwork for the San Francisco International Airport: Terminal 1 Center, TSA Security Checkpoint Public Art Project. Ms. Topfer stated the artist selection panel’s request to increase Ms. Glynn’s suspended sculpture is reflected in Ms. Glynn’s conceptual design presentation. 
 
Ms. Glynn shared that her artwork is based on the idea that the airport is a hub of connectivity, and the internet as a metaphor for connectivity, including the underwater fiber optic cables that connect continents for technological communication. These fiber optic cables are reflected in Ms. Glynn’s idea to connect the islands in her artwork with bands featuring a binary code design. The binary code bands will be 12 inches wide and will be grouped to the islands. 
 
The total surface area of the islands has increased approximately 24% overall. A sixth island was proposed to balance the distribution of masses evenly among the columns, and include all of the earth’s continental landmasses. The tree heights were also increased. 
 
Ms. Glynn said that it was recently brought to her attention that the bands may cause an issue with the sightlines for security cameras. 
 
Ms. Glynn also discussed the glazes for her ceramic tile samples that were shared with the Committee. 
 
Commissioner Keehn called for public comment. There was no public comment.
 
Motion: Motion to approve the conceptual design documents phase deliverables for Liz Glynn’s artwork, Terra-Techne, for the San Francisco International Airport: Terminal 1 Center, TSA Security Checkpoint Public Art Project.
Moved: Sklar/Silverman
The motion was unanimously approved
 
Ms. Topfer stated her concerns from the San Francisco International Airport (“SFO”) Design Team regarding the binary code bands. Since Ms. Glynn is passionate about the addition, Ms. Topfer stated she is requesting meetings to further discuss the sightline issues with the security cameras. Ms. Pontious added that the SFO Design Team is having a lot of problems with aiming the cameras and it could cause further issues with the fire sprinkler system. 
 
Commissioner Silverman added that the weight of the artwork could require cross bracing to ensure safety. Ms. Pontious added that terracotta is quite heavy for the islands, as is the stainless steel material suggestion for the bands.
 
C. Terminal 1, Boarding Area B, End of Pier
Justine Topfer
Action
 
Ms. Topfer presented the selected artist and artwork for the San Francisco International Airport: Terminal 1, Boarding Area B, End of Pier Project. The artist selection panel met on June 19, 2018 and selected Spencer Finch and his artwork, Orion. Ms. Topfer said that Mr. Finch needs to reconfigure the artwork so the lights are LED instead of fluorescent. 
 
Ms. Pontious stated that she does have some concern for the maintenance of the artwork. There are gel sleeves over the lights in order to produce the color, and the artist stressed that the gels wear out and need to be replaced. Commissioner Silverman said that Berggruen, the gallery that represents Mr. Finch, shared that there are no reports about fading gel sleeves to their knowledge. 
 
Ms. Topfer stated that the project came in under budget, leaving more funds for future maintenance. 
 
Commissioner Keehn called for public comment. There was no public comment.

Moved: Silverman/Sklar
The motion was unanimously approved
 
Commissioner Keehn announced that the following motion will be revised to not include the approval artwork by Tammy Rae Carland. Commissioner Silverman represents Ms. Carland at her gallery and therefore would have to recuse herself. Commissioner Keehn stated that because Commissioner Silverman and President Beltran both have financial ties to Ms. Carland, it would be best to approve her artwork at the Executive Committee Meeting on July 23, 2018.
