Ogden City recognizes that the arts are essential for enhancing quality of life, promoting economic development, improving education, and celebrating community. The City’s “Master Plan for Arts and Culture” emphasizes that the arts are an important economic driver for the community, both by supporting the creative industries and by attracting and retaining top talent in other trades. Additionally, the arts strengthen Ogden’s unique cultural identity, by expressing diverse perspectives in a way that brings people together and forges new connections. The four goals identified in the Master Plan for Arts and Culture are outlined below. Embed the arts as a key component in economic development and city planning strategies. Advance the arts as an integral element that celebrates Ogden’s diversity and strengthens its unique identity. Create an environment where artists can thrive. Weave the arts into the daily Ogden experience. 1 The Creative District Master Plan supports the goals and objectives outlined in the Master Plan for Arts and Culture, and recommends how they can be achieved by using placemaking strategies in a targeted geographic area. In 2015, Ogden City received a grant from the “Our Town” program of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to use creative placemaking and arts engagement for the revitalization of the area between Downtown Ogden and the adjacent East Central residential neighborhood. This area was envisioned as a Creative District that would encourage artists and other creatives to work and live, create new opportunities for the community to engage with art, and develop a vibrant connection between Downtown and East Central. The focus of the Our Town grant is to develop a community vision, conceptual plan, and identity for the Creative District. Supportive grant activities include arts events and installations that would generate activity in the district and develop resources for artists and creatives. The Creative District Master Plan presents the vision and conceptual plan for the district. Study Area The Creative District encompasses downtown Ogden City as well as other neighboring areas. The District is bounded on the north and south by 24th and 26th Streets, and runs west to east from Grant Avenue to Madison Avenue. It overlaps other existing districts including the Central Business District, the East Central Neighborhood, the Crossroads of the West, Historic 25th Street, and Jefferson Avenue Historic Districts. The current zoning includes both CBD (commercial business district) and R-3EC (multi-family residential). Historic Overview Historic 25th Street, originally named Fifth Street, was the main spine of Ogden’s historic streetcar system that connected Union Station and the city’s colorful downtown to the what was then known as the “First Bench” residential neighborhood—home to many of Ogden’s early residents. This area originally included a mix of large mansions, small to medium sized homes, and multi-family apartment buildings with a number of interspersed outbuildings. A sprinkling of pioneer homes and agricultural buildings from the city’s original settlement period were also included in this mix. Smaller neighborhood-scale commercial buildings were common throughout the district (sometimes attached to homes), as well as churches and other civic buildings. By today’s standards the original streetcar subdivision was actually mixed-use and walkable. Over time, bungalows and apartments, and commercial buildings increasingly spread throughout the district as development continued to progress east toward the mountain benches. Eventually, the streetcar lines were abandoned and paved for vehicular use. Existing Conditions: One of the area’s most defining characteristics is its inclusion within a larger national historic district, the Central Bench National Historic District. Accordingly, the study area contains a large number of historic buildings. Historic architectural styles include late 19th and early 20th century commercial structures, as well as Victorian, Arts and Crafts, and Art Deco. Numerous homes located in the local Jefferson Avenue Historic District, which have been largely restored. Although the properties throughout the Creative District are generally well maintained, there are also many properties in a state of disrepair. Many historic homes have been subdivided into apartments, some of which present substandard living conditions. 2 The district contains a mix of residential, commercial, and institutional uses, the latter of which is often located on large parcels with big parking lots. This creates a difficult situation, because county, state, and federal agencies control many of these large parcels/parking lots, and have little incentive to replace parking with more active uses, or even share parking with adjacent buildings. A large number of vacant and boarded-up buildings exists throughout the area, further contributing to an overall sense of blight. Vacant lots and large parking areas contribute to a disconnected relationship between destinations and usable space within the district. Some new development, mainly in the 500 block of 25th Street, has brought back vibrancy to the area, helping to repair the physical connections between the district and the downtown. This recent development is contemporary in style, while still sensitive to the historic neighborhood context, and also includes some adaptive reuse of historic structures. The streets themselves are wide and accommodating, providing ample travel lanes, turn lanes, and on-street parking (angled in some cases). The 300 and 400 blocks are typically more urban and do not include park-strips while the 500 and 600 blocks are typically more suburban and include wide (10’) park strips with large mature street trees. Lighting is minimal, mainly consisting of tall poles located at or near intersections and mid-blocks, leaving large expanses of the streetscape dimly or poorly illuminated. In most instances, the sidewalks are in disrepair with large sections of cracked, buckled and uneven pavement. In many cases, intersections lack ADA accessible curb-ramps Challenges: As described in the previous section, the overall appearance and quality of the study area is substandard. The age of the buildings and infrastructure, combined with neglect and disrepair, contribute to a sense of unsafe or undesirable conditions. Specific challenges for the establishment of a creative district include the following: Existing Parking: Large expanses of surface parking lots and parking structures contribute to a feeling of disconnectedness, that works against human-scale development, active use or vibrancy to the district. Furthermore, many of these parking areas are underutilized. Washington Blvd: This is a high-traffic street and a UDOT right-of-way. Its size and heavy traffic volume present a physical barrier/separation between downtown and the neighborhood. Elevation change between Washington & Adams: This short but steep hillside creates a minor physical challenge to pedestrians and cyclists. Vacant Buildings: The large number of vacant and boarded-up buildings (potentially an opportunity for new arts-related uses) are not providing any active uses to the area, and present both a real and perceived safety challenge. Substandard housing: Although affordable, many of the buildings and homes that have been subdivided into apartments, present substandard living conditions. Poorly managed properties: A number of rental properties in the area are poorly maintained and experience a high number of police calls for crime and drug-related issues. These properties created real safety issues and contribute to overall eprceptions of the area as unsafe. Half-block streets: Currently several half-block streets including Kiesel Avenue, Ogden Avenue, Porter Avenue, and Orchard Avenue have a lower visibility and accessibility 3 compared to the more well traveled and visible main streets. This presents a real and perceived safety issue. Zoning: In many cases the current zoning ordinances are directly contributing to the previously listed challenges. Parking requirements are prohibitive for many existing buildings and lot consolidations. Single family zoning doesn’t allow for commercial/arts uses, even though some buildings have been converted to commercial and are no longer well-suited for being converted back to single family homes. The real challenge of the neighborhood is a lack of human activity on the street level. The contributing factors to this are an absence of active uses (housing and businesses) in close proximity to each other and an overall lack of pedestrian-oriented urban design. The people currently using the district arrive and leave via automobile resulting in a lack

  • Using a Projected Trompe L'oeil to Highlight a Church Interior from the Outside
    Using a projected Trompe L'Oeil to highlight a church interior from the outside A. Hoeben fieldOfView Lange Nieuwstraat 23b1 3111AC Schiedam the Netherlands [email protected] The St. Willibrordus Church in the city center of Utrecht (the Netherlands) is a prime example of the Gothic Revival architecture. The richly decorated church interior is, unfortunately, one of the best kept secrets of the city. In the semi permanent art installation presented in this paper, imagery showing the church interior is projected on the outside walls of the entrance of the church. By projecting onto a spherical mirror suspended from the entrance ceiling, the projection is reflected onto three walls and the ceiling. The resulting image, when seen from the street-level outside, creates an perspective illusion. This paper shows how the installation was implemented in the church in an unobtrusive way, and explains the calibration system that was developed for determining the pre-distortions required to project the Trompe L'Oeil. church interior, art installation, digital projection, perspective manipulation, optical illusion 1.

  • ART, TECHNOLOGY, and HIGH ART/LOW CULTURE DEBATES in CANONICAL AMERICAN ART HISTORY I. Overview in His Media Ar
    CHAPTER ONE: ART, TECHNOLOGY, AND HIGH ART/LOW CULTURE DEBATES IN CANONICAL AMERICAN ART HISTORY I. Overview In his Media Art History, Hans-Peter Schwarz of the Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany (ZKM) wrote: “The history of the new media [sic] is inextricably linked with the history of the project of the modern era as a whole. It can only be described as the evolution of the human experience of reality, i.e. of the social reality relationship in the modern age.” I begin with his words, which have strong resonance for me, perhaps beyond his initial intent or ultimate direction. His astute triangulation of those three concepts—new media history, the project of the modern era, and “social reality”—form the nexus of my theoretical investigation. For it seems that current social realities and the project of the modern era largely govern new media’s reception within the Western art history canon. Perhaps clarity regarding the ideological interconnection of these three elements will only be possible with more historical distance. However, this dissertation represents a step toward a better understanding of the sometimes-vicious canonical opposition to the fusion of art and technology, in light of these intersections. Key are his two phrases: “the project of the modern era,” and “the evolution of the human experience of reality, i.e. of the social reality relationship in the modern age.” On the basis of Schwarz’s text, I take the second phrase to mean the dehumanization that results from industrialization and modern warfare. In regard to artistic production, he rightly underscores the abrupt reorganization of vision precipitated by, for example, developments in photography and cinematography during the early modernist period.

  • ERWIN REDL B
    ERWIN REDL b. 1963, Gföhl, Austria Lives in Ohio Known for his architecturally scaled light installations, Erwin Redl investigates the process of “reverse engineering” by (re-)translating the abstract aesthetic language of virtual reality and 3-D computer modeling back into architectural environments. In this body of work, space is experienced as a second skin, our social skin. Visual perception works in conjunction with corporeal motion, and the subsequent passage of time. In Los Angeles, the Pacific Design Center’s new Red Building by Cesar Pelli features four permanent installations by Redl, to be completed in November 2012. He also recently won two major public art competitions in with installations now in progress for the New York Police Academy’s new building in Queens as well as the Union Square / Market Street subway station in San Francisco, California. In 2013 he will open a new installation at the Borusan Museum in Istanbul, Turkey. A computer-controlled 580-foot long outdoor LED-installation at the Wexner Center for the Arts in Columbus, Ohio, is Redl’s largest work to date, completed in 2010. Among his most memorable of interventions was created for the 2002 Whitney Biennial, in a piece that covered the Whitney Museum's facade with a three multi-color LED veils. In 2008 he was commissioned by the World Expo in Zaragoza, Spain, to create a sound and light installation for the Austrian Pavilion. Redl’s work is collected privately as well as institutionally including the Whitney Museum of American Art New York, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego and the Milwaukee Art Museum, among other national and international museums.

    WELCOMECURATING THE CREATIVE REIMAGINING An Arts-based Journey to Reflect, Reset, and Reimagine the Future From animation to sculpture, film to the spoken word, murals, paintings, photographs, mixed-media pieces, political performance pieces, and even comedic satire, The Future Art Awards candidly explores a captured reflection of our times, offering new pathways of thinking, new modes of learning, and a virtual platform for the celebration of our creative reimagining of a more free world. While the pandemic may indeed serve as a catalyst for reflection, we have been here before at pivotal moments all throughout human history—only to return to the status quo or settle for unsatisfying incremental action. As we’ve pondered this phenomenon of an imposed inertia, ripe for change, the human spirit bursts forth and into the streets with the undeniable yearning for racial, social, and environmental justice, and ultimately, a rebalancing of the scales of power. How do we leverage the pandemic as a catalyst to reimagine alternative futures and to look to the healing power of the arts for a blueprint for meaningful change? After all, the arts have built cities and written histories. They’ve transformed dilapidated and abandoned streets and buildings into flourishing communities. They’ve enlightened intercultural understandings and represent a universal human experience through the beauty of a mosaic of distinct expressions. The arts often honor and pay tribute to our past by creating a record of what has come before, anchoring us for our move into the future by envisioning and materializing what comes next. By reestablishing context, whether by naming a truth, telling a story, or making a community visible, we distinguish ourselves through art against the often-homogenizing effects of globalization and the ongoing assault on arts’ education across centers of learning, both near and far.

  • How Can Light Art Manipulate the Visual Perception of Space?
    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ENGINEERING AND PRODUCT DESIGN EDUCATION 10-11 SEPTEMBER 2020, VIA DESIGN, VIA UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, HERNING, DENMARK HOW CAN LIGHT ART MANIPULATE THE VISUAL PERCEPTION OF SPACE? Zahra RAHIMI and Laila STEEN Oslo Metropolitan University, Norway ABSTRACT Transitioning from a field of engineering to a medium for more artistic expressions, lighting has changed from strictly functional lightboxes to elaborate light-based designs and installations. Both artists and architects have used light as a medium to manipulate visual perception and impressions. This paper explores the interaction between light, visual perceptions, and space. Through a case study of artworks that experiment with light, space, and visual perceptions, it discusses how light art can impact perceptions by the way it illuminates spaces. The findings demonstrate the impressions and perceptions created by light art and coloured light as an artistic material. The aesthetic application of light can remove boundaries and define a space in a different way. Although lighting installations are primarily part of architecture and interior design, this article proposes how light can be applied in design by manipulating the visual perception of the design on users. Keywords: Light, space, visual perception, colour, impression 1 INTRODUCTION Light creates the aesthetical and functional aspects as a physical and dynamic medium to highlight the essential details and materials of space [9]. It adds an intangible explanation to space and object, which is more adaptable to change in comparison with other materials in space [12]. Moreover, light is a vital factor of designs and art installations, as it can affect the experience of the space for the viewer [13].

Graves David Opdyke Light and Life Contemporary Landscapes g a macura inc. and 222 East 41st Street are proud to present Light and Life: Contempo- rary Landscapes. The pieces included in this exhibition examine how landscapes are de- fined, developed, and presented in a 21st century context. Using contemporary technol- ogy and materials, each artist has cultivated and grown their own version of present-day “organic” scenery. Turning the classic theme of landscapes on its ear, the featured artists present new and technically relevant settings that mirror our own collective understanding of our envi- ronment in the digital age. Whether through photography, sculpture, or mixed media, it becomes clear that technology, reconditioning of urban space, and utilization of resourc- es has reshaped our concept of a location and its possibilities. In Kathleen J. Grave’s Garden Bot series, microorganisms assist humans in the planting and tending of gardens. These Nanobots are a futuristic representation of the cells em- ployed in the upkeep of our own bodies, and technological evolution begins to take on the appearance of an organic composition. In the same breadth, David Opdyke’s repur- posing of man-made materials – such as PVC and plastic – into natural-looking sculp- tures is an attempt to refurbish the resources we have cast away to create a new type of urban landscaping.

Then, light sculpture introduces the medium of light as an expression of electronic tools. Finally, software-generated visualizations highlight advanced work in spatial imaging and cyberspace animation. Several kinetic and inter- active works extend the reach of art into the real space of viewer participation. A key sub-plot of Light / Space / Code concerns the natural world and its ecol- ogy.
