    DOWNTOWN REGINA PUBLIC ART GUIDE Downtown Regina Public Art Guide 1 JOSH GOFF & DANNY FERNANDEZ Tiki Room Wall (2010) on front cover 2323 11th AVE. 1 “Tiki Room Wall” has been one of the most vibrant pieces of downtown Regina art since the summer of 2010. The mural was completed over the course of two weeks, with Goff and Fernandez each putting in fourteen hour days. Creating the piece necessitated the use of a skyjack which placed the artists three full building storeys above the ground. “Tiki Room Wall”, like many of Goff and Fernandez’s pieces, is done in spray paint. Goff and Fernandez’s intention in creat- ing the piece was to bring colour, optimism, and a sense of something different to the lives of those who live, work, shop, and dine downtown, as he feels that colour, particularly the absence of it, affects people’s moods. ROB BOS ^ Tornado Scribble (2012) 1845 CORNWALL ST. 2 Bos’ piece commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Regina tornado shows how the written line destroys the blankness of the page to create symbols that can be read and understood. Meaning thus comes from this initial destruc- tive gesture and then manifests itself in an abstract form. These lines can be used to both communicate and obscure meaning, such as when a word is scribbled out and replaced by another. “Tornado Scribble” suggests the multiple new meanings put forth by the destruction and loss incurred by the tornado, and how they alter perception and memory. The piece is 25 feet high and 12 feet wide, and is made from lazer cut aluminum.

    TEACHER RESOURCE CURRICULUM THEMES CURRICULAR CONNECTIONS Saskatchewan Voices; Sculpture; Ceramics; GRADE 4 | CR4.2: Students will explore Saskatchewan History and Culture artist Joe Fafard’s portraits and respond by creating a visual or written work about a local person who is significant in their lives. JOE FAFARD: THE POLITICIAN Fafard’s sculpture of The Politician depicts John G. Diefenbaker, Canada ’s 13th Prime Minister. Diefenbaker was a persuasive speaker and a prairie populist who prided himself on being able to remember the names of thousands of his constituents. Fafard has skillfully captured the essence of the man who suffered election defeats for two decades before finally being elected to Parliament, achieving the leadership of his party and then the Prime Minister’s office. In The Politician Fafard presents Diefenbaker in his later years, perhaps his last campaign in 1979, striking a characteristic hands-on-hips pose. Being a man of the people was part of the Diefenbaker persona, so it would be perfectly natural for him to climb on a chair in any of the community halls in his constituency to speak to a small group of voters. With The Politician, Fafard has applied his characteristic attention to detail to the figure on the chair, which exhibits strength of character and a sense of humanity that elevates this sculpture above a portrayal of one person to become the archetypal politician. THINGS TO THINK ABOUT Do you know someone who has a pose or gesture that is unique to that person, like John Diefenbaker’s hands-on- hips pose? What does that pose or gesture say about the person? Newspaper editorial cartoonists had a wonderful time drawing Diefenbaker during his time as Prime Minister and leader of the opposition.

  • Keep on Going Frank & Victor Cicansky
    Keep On Going Frank & Victor Cicansky This exhibition features the paintings, sculptures and craft objects of folk artist, Frank Cicansky, in dialogue with the ceramics and sculptural work of his son, internationally renowned artist, Victor Cicansky. The presentation of these artists’ works together offers an opportunity to consider the shared values, creative drives and narratives of memory, place and origin that inform both of their artistic practices. Together these works reflect a sincere and compelling response to place, offering immigrant narratives of first and second generation settler Canadians in southern Saskatchewan, while also exploring the influential connections between our province’s folk art and funk art genres. Frank Cicansky’s work not only reflects his skilled craftsmanship, from his training as a blacksmith and wheelwright in Romania before he immigrated in 1926, but offers narratives of his experiences of settlement in his new country, in the Wood Mountain area south of Moose Jaw. Carvings and wooden sculptures of pioneer life depict horses and wagons of threshing teams he would have worked on and the barns and houses he would have built, while the paintings, including a series titled In the Thirties, highlight the hardships of settling in southern Saskatchewan. Known as a great storyteller, Frank chose to depict these memories visually in paint, while incorporating mixed media and text. He also shared the memories behind each image verbally, having them recorded in audio, which have been transcribed in his voice, in his spoken vernacular, and included on the exhibition labels. In these folk images with incorporated text, we see depictions of farmsteads abandoned during the Depression by desperate families with their belongings piled in a wagon, a dead horse, an empty well and clouds of grasshoppers.
