Mural #5, Hermosa's Great Wave, Is the Creation of Legendary
Mural #5, Hermosa’s Great Wave, is the creation of legendary, multidisciplinary artist John Van Hamersveld. The Palos Verdes artist is best known for his Endless Summer surf movie poster and his album covers for the Beatles “Magical Mystery Tour“, the Rolling Stones’ “Exile on Mainstreet”, the Beach Boys “Made in California” and Jefferson Airplane’s “Crown of Redemption”. The mural depicts the evolution of Hermosa Beach surfboards through time, with Van Hamersveld’s mural expressing the narrative through the silhouettes of three surfers, each holding a different surfboard representing a distinct era. The image of these surfers overlays a collage of colorful, abstract shapes and an expansive, all-powerful wave. Located at 14th Street and Hermosa Avenue, on the wall of The Underground Pub & Grill, the 75 foot by 19 foot mural is directly across the street from the long gone Foster’s Freeze where Van Hamersveld and his high school surf buddies hung out five decades ago. The unveiling served as a reunion for members of the three great surfing eras memorialized in the mural. The mural’s story begins with the kookbox era. Jacobs, McFarlane and Van Hamersveld himself, first surfed on kookboxes — hollow, wood surfboards steered by dragging a foot because kookboxes didn’t have fins. Next - the Golden Era of the 1960s, represented at the unveiling by surfboard shaper and retired lifeguard Sonny Vardeman and by members of the Haggerty Surf Club, including John Joseph, Mike McIntire, and John Leininger. The contemporary era of short board surfers was represented at the unveiling by Spyder Surf shaper Dennis Jarvis, ET shaper Pat Ryan, surfing’s first World Champion PT Townsend and South Bay standouts Bobby Warcola and John Teague. -
Hunt Armory 324 Emerson Street Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 15206
Hunt Armory 324 Emerson Street Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 15206 Officers of the Historic Review Commission: Please accept this nomination to grant historic designation to the Hunt Armory structure located in Shadyside at 324 Emerson Street, Pittsburgh, PA, 15206. The Hunt Armory building is 102 years old and has been consistently occupied by the 28th Infantry Division since 1916. The building exemplifies the renaissance revival style characteristic of armories and other military buildings of its period, and both the building and the military units inside it are directly relevant to the rich cultural heritage of Western Pennsylvania and the United States. Shadyside and the Pennsylvania National Guard have both undergone many changes over the last century, but the Hunt Armory has always stood as a local landmark. The Armory is already listed on the National Register of Historic Places. However, due to the upcoming potential of more statewide armory sales, both residents in the Shadyside community and the preservation and museum community of Pittsburgh feel that local historic status should be placed upon the Armory in order to recognize and protect its historic façade and commemorative plaques dedicated to the lives of soldiers killed in combat. Consequently, the Office of Senator Jim Ferlo collaborated with the Roy A. Hunt Foundation and a retired member of the Pennsylvania National Guard to gather support and submit this application for historic status of the building. By approving it, you honor not only the building but also the lives and labors of the Pennsylvania National Guard over the past 102 years. Thank you for your consideration. -

Former Los Angeles Oil Tank Transformed Into Massive Surfing Mural TRC Installs Colorful, Three-Story Tall Work from Famed Artist John Van Hamersveld
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 10, 2018 Former Los Angeles Oil Tank Transformed into Massive Surfing Mural TRC installs colorful, three-story tall work from famed artist John Van Hamersveld LOS ANGELES – El Segundo residents now have a striking new addition to their skyline – a giant mural of surf-inspired psychedelia thanks to iconic California artist John Van Hamersveld, city officials, the Los Angeles Department of Water & Power and TRC. The mural – 32 feet high and 510 feet long – surrounds a hulking LADWP storage tank on Grand Avenue that’s no longer in use. TRC, a leader in engineering, environmental consulting and construction-management services, commissioned Van Hamersveld to wrap the tank with his colorful artwork at the behest of the city of El Segundo. “This project came to life after an El Segundo resident asked me if something could be done to improve the appearance of the tank,” said Mayor Drew Boyles. “This is a shining example of a resident voicing a concern and the city council working with stakeholders to develop a truly beautiful outcome. We would like to thank everyone involved for partnering on this ambitious project.” The mural was installed in 51 panels that encircle the top of the tank, which once held 7.3 million gallons of oil from the refinery next door. Van Hamersveld, a 1959 graduate of El Segundo High School, is a famous pop artist who has done numerous murals around California – though none as large as this. But he’s best known for the poster he created for the seminal 1966 surf film “The Endless Summer” and for his work in the rock music world – an iconic Jimi Hendrix concert poster and album cover designs for the Beatles’ “Magical Mystery Tour,” the Rolling Stones’ “Exile on Main St.” and the Grateful Dead’s “Skeletons From the Closet,” to name a few. -
The Influence of the LA Streets on Art By: Tom Gregory
The Influence of the LA Streets on Art By: Tom Gregory L.A. INFLUENTIAL -- a lively panel discussion on the influence of Southern California's subcultures, scenes, and scenery on contemporary art Panelists: Chaz Bojorquez, Brad Howe, Dave Tourjé, John Van Hamersveld, Norton Wisdom, and Gary Wong, moderated by Mary Anna Pomonis. GREGORY WAY GALLERY 245 S. Beverly Dr., Beverly Hills, 90212 T. 310.562.7879 www.gregorywaygallery.com L.A. Influential features a panel of native Los Angeles artists discussing the current interest in LA's diverse subcultures' impact on art as demonstrated in exhibitions such as MOCA's Art in the Streets and Street Cred: Graffiti Art from Concrete to Canvas at the Pasadena Museum of California Art. These exhibitions have raised myriad dialogues concerning art and the cultural influence of Los Angeles in the global art scene. Along with the discussion of L.A.'s varying subcultures, the panel will also address the significance of SoCal both in terms of its historical indigenous art movements in conjunction with its regional environmental changes -- light, color, space, heat, sprawl, and motion of a constantly shifting contemporary backdrop. Each artist on the panel draws on their distinct backgrounds and connection to now-thriving art scenes that were born in Southern California, including their varying mix of influences from the disparate but related worlds of music, street, surf, skate and high and low art. Chaz Bojorquez, known as the godfather of graffiti art, is considered one of the first artists who successfully made the transition from street to gallery. Bojorquez studied at the Chouinard School of Art during the late 60s with abstractionist Matsumi Kanemitsu among others. -
