PAEA 2017 1 Welcome 2017 PAEA Conference

Welcome to Pittsburgh! Be inspired by the beauty of the City of Pittsburgh and the energy of its visual arts culture. The Pennsylvania Art Education Association is hosting its annual conference in the city to connect members with the visual arts in museums, art centers, galleries, public places and with arts advocates. ART IT UP as you are immersed in this rich environment. From the time of the industrial revolution, the visual arts were valued as Andrew Carnegie dedicated a museum of modern art to invest for the old masters of tomorrow as he hosted the International Art Exhibition to gain acquisitions for the collection. This foresight to ART IT UP has built a reputation that has brought notoriety to the city and empowered a community that is welcoming to new ideas and creative innovations that continue today! The PAEA Conference 2017 in Pittsburgh will be the largest gathering space for art educators in the state and is designed exclusively with you in mind. Experience the thriving visual arts scene with Pittsburgh artists, professional sessions, hands–on workshops, outreach tours and stimulating socials. Present your work to our community of art educators and connect with peers to gain new inspiration and knowledge. As we grow over the three days, our reach and voice will be strengthened to advocate for and respond to change in art education. Be empowered after your return from the creative colleagues around the state. Invest in your future at this conference in Pittsburgh. Let’s ART IT UP! Lynda Abraham–Braff, Cynthia Blackwell & Kymberly Cruz 2017 Conference Co–Chairs About the Logo . . . Our conference logo grew out of a desire to remind art teachers that art is the joy in life and we are blessed to Art It Up each day. We also wanted to connect our logo to the urban art of this great city. We hope you will enjoy reading about our ideas for the logo design. • The colors incorporate the Pantone Color of the Year: Greenery along with a hot color palette recommended by Pantone to Graphic Designers. This brings a contemporary design influence to the conference. • The color palette incorporates greens and blues reminding us of clean energy, landscapes, and conservation. It also incorporates shades of blue and gray—urban colors reminiscent of the city. • The fonts are sans serif, simple and clean. Clean and simple fonts are utilized in many recently redesigned logos. Utilizing current graphic design trends will preserve this moment in time when looking back at our conference designs in future years. • The R in ART drops down to touch the U in UP, bringing connection between words and flow to the design. The arrow in the U points up and gives additional meaning to the conference theme Art It Up. • The squares with horizontal lines flowing through them gives the logo structure and repeats the overall block shape of the logo. The white lines create a sense of elegance, and can suggest water or architectural structure . . . depending upon how your eye/mind perceives them. • Gestalt principles are rules of organization often used in logo design because they help the viewer perceive or grasp complex ideas in an organized way. These principles are visually pleasing because they bring order to complex ideas. Repeating shapes and using shapes that make close connections, like the squares with lines, utilizes the Gestalt Principle of Similarity and Proximity. The relationship between the R & U utilizes the Gestalt Principle of Continuation. Annual PAEA Conference Student Art Exhibition . . . We wish to thank all the teachers that encouraged their students to participate in the real time exhibit of work that can be found in Grand Station I. This is the same area where the keynote speakers will be each day, so you can’t miss it. We love digital exhibits, but there is still nothing like seeing the real thing. Take a few moments to enjoy the work of our talented students from across the state. Art Museum Opportunities . . . The Mattress Factory will have free admission for teachers Friday through Sunday by showing your conference badge. The Warhol & Carnegie Museums are free to teachers that become loyalty program members. This is a year long membership that costs you nothing and includes additional benefits.

Graphic Organizers on the Divider Pages . . . Every year we insert heavy divider pages in bold colors that help you find each day of the conference. These pages are designed to encourage you to take notes. We have selected three different graphic organizers this year that you might enjoy trying in your classroom. Thurs/Friday: The Frayer Model is a graphic organizer used for word analysis and vocabulary building. This four–square model prompts students to think about and describe the meaning of a word or concept placed in the center of the organizer, then . . . defining/describing the term, illustrating its essential characteristics, providing examples of the idea, and providing non–examples of the idea. This is a great organizer to use with elementary students. Saturday: The Becoming an Art Critic graphic organizer provides a format to organize key ideas for observing and writing about a work of art. Questions can be modified for specific works of art or critical concepts in the lesson and is easily adaptable for all ages. Sunday: The Cornell Note Taker graphic organizer provides a systematic format for condensing and organizing notes. The paper is divided into two columns: the note–taking column (on the right) is twice the size of the questions/key word column (on the left). This graphic organizer is easily adaptable for all ages.

6 Annual Fall Conference President’s Message 2017 PAEA Conference

Welcome Art Educators!

This is one of the best times of the year! Each year, I look forward to learning and collaborating with like–minded art educators at our annual PAEA conference. The conference is so much more than getting fresh, new ideas for the classroom. It is also a place of research and advocacy, a place to fuel our passion and give us the words and wisdom to defend and uphold art education opportunities for all students in the state of Pennsylvania. We are here because we know how important our programs are for our students. And we are here because we believe that we can do better. A big buzz in my school is about growth mindset, a belief that we can improve through research, experimentation, and practice. I am delighted to see so many art educators here, continuing to hone their practice. The PAEA Board of Directors has been working hard addressing the three areas of our Strategic Vision. A few highlights include:

Research, Knowledge and Learning Thank you to all who participated in our 2017 Survey on the State of Art Education in PA. Look for the infographic with important bullet points of our findings. Check out our schedule of professional development events across the state for the 2017–2018 school year. For a complete list of events, visit our website: paeablog.org. And finally, a shout out to Diane Wilkin for her work on PAEA President: Robin Brewer our Act 48 provider renewal application. PAEA has received PDE approval to offer Act 48 credit and will continue to plan Act 48 events throughout the year.

Advocacy and Community 2017 Youth Art Month was a huge success! Members across the state displayed outstanding student artwork at the Department of Education in Harrisburg. Be sure to participate in the Youth Art Month Flag Design and Exhibition for 2018. Special thanks to Suzanne Pagel and Jocelyn Lashley for their work with YAM. We also welcome our new Youth Art Month Co–Chairs, Robb Bomboy and Christina Braun. They are planning a few changes for next year so look for that information heading your way soon.

Organizational Vibrancy PAEA was awarded the NAEA 2017 Website Award. This year, we introduced a new blog component to our web page. Kudos to webmaster Kris Fontes and bloggers Leslie Grace, Sue Liedke, and Christina Uliano! Finally, I want to invite you to reach out to me if you are looking to be more involved in your professional organization. It has been my personal goal to welcome anyone who is interested in offering professional development, serving on a committee or joining the PAEA Board. As I tell my photography club students, “This club is only as good as you make it.” So what’s stopping you? Bring a friend, host an event, lead a webinar, share ideas on social media or join a committee. I’m only an email away!

PAEA 2017 13 The Pittsburgh Center for Creative Reuse

Creative Reuse is a treasure that sits quietly on a side street in Pittsburgh’s East End and occupies a small part of a larger ecocomplex, that includes Construction Junction and Freecycle. This upcycle center for arts and crafts literally takes what you would never think of as artistic materials and offers it for almost nothing to a community of people who desire unique and inspiring ways to create. When you realize the outreach programs and institutions in and around Pittsburgh the creative reuse center has been a part of, it no longer seems so quiet. Some of the programs developed by the center include their flagship program, Reuse–A–Palooza, an exploratory art activity where participants of all ages are invited to create with a large array of playful, reclaimed materials. The Educator Empowerment Program, a pilot program made possible by the Grable Founda- PAEA 2017 Outstanding tion (Summer/Fall 2017), will have Creative Reuse partner with 10–15 educators from a diversity of settings to participate in a Emeritus Art Educator set of hands–on professional development sessions that focus on environmental issues, resource conservation, and creative educa- Marcy L.

PAEA Emeritus Division Director & Webmaster

Union City Area School District (1998 – 2014) • 2005 Outstanding Middle Level Art Educator • 2010 PA Art Educator of the Year Kris Fontes joined the PAEA board as the Region 2 Representative in 2000, where her BFA in Advertising Art, MA in Instructional Technology and Media, and 21st Century digital design skills and knowledge proved to be invaluable. Since then she has taken on many roles across the state. As PAEA President–Elect, she began introducing gradual shifts towards stronger digital communication through online meetings. PAEA Leadership Council (LC) began holding monthly online meetings and she introduced the full board to Ning online meetings that allow members to discuss business during the winter months. It also gives board members an opportunity to voice their ideas, make suggestions, or share opinions in a thoughtful, written environment. Ms. Fontes was also responsible for shifting our hard copy newsletter into a quarterly digital publication, exploring multiple formats until eventually settling on shorter and more frequent documents using Constant Contact and Mail Chimp. These moves into 21st Century technology have saved PAEA a lot of travel, publishing and postal money and allowed us to increase our regional presence and student art opportunities. One of Ms. Fontes’ proudest accomplishments is the redesign of the PAEA website that received national recognition at NAEA this past year. She got involved with the website after a catastrophic failure of our original website server. A temporary website without much flexibility was recreated for a few years and at the 2013 summer board retreat, a new website was unveiled. It was still under construction, when Ms. Fontes became ill and had to put the Kristine Fontes website on hold for a year. She continues to share admin responsibilities for the PAEA website, Emeritus Division Director 2014–Present along with the LC and several vibrant young PAEA bloggers. Ms. Fontes also serves as the Webmaster 2010 – Present Emeritus Division Director, where she has developed a project called the Portfolio Initiative as a Newsletter Coordinator 2010 – 2016 way for retirees to recognize new professionals.

The Mattress Factory Meet in the Sheraton Hotel Lobby at 9:30 AM The Mattress Factory has pioneered the development of alternative art forms through site–specific installations, video, and performance art. It is nationally and internationally recognized as a leader in site–specific, contemporary art and is notorious for pushing the boundaries of both artist and viewer. The unparalleled support that artists receive from the Mattress Factory, while working in residence, often result in the production of extraordinary artwork that propels the artist’s career and significantly impacts the field of contemporary art. Mattress Factory exhibitions present new works by critically–acclaimed regional, national and international artists and the museum’s exhibitions appear in publications like The New York Times, Art in America, Art Asian/Pacific, and the Wall Street Journal, among many others. The Mattress Factory Education Department has developed outreach programs using installation art to challenge, excite and motivate students and learners of all ages to engage the world around them in new and creative ways. In 2003, the museum opened a fully–equipped Education Studio for workshops, school programs, teacher training and community activities. The museum’s Education Department serves more than 20,000 students, teachers, adults and families annually through a wide range of programs. In 2013, the Education Department refocused its priorities to better serve the museum’s urban neighborhood by launching an after school program and a series of workshops dedicated to children 3–6 years of age. Our Adult Installation Lab experience includes a guided tour of the museum’s galleries led by museum educators and an interactive art activity highlighting big ideas of contemporary installation art in the museum’s Education Studio.

The Carnegie Museum of Art Meet in the Sheraton Hotel Lobby at 9:30 AM PAEA members will have an opportunity to participate in a dynamic exchange of ideas about art and society. Founded in 1968, The Studio Museum in Harlem is internationally known for its catalytic role in championing the work of artists of African descent. In a unique institutional collaboration, CMOA and the Studio Museum present a group exhibition, 20/20: The Studio Museum in Harlem, with works by 40 artists, 20 from each collection. Responding to a tumultuous and deeply divided moment in our nation’s history, the curators have mined these collections to offer a metaphoric picture of America today. The exhibition unfolds through a thematic exploration of the foundations of our national condition, ultimately championing the critical role of art in political and individual expression. PAEA participants and CMOA educators will discuss how these important conversations can be brought into the classroom, especially through art and writing.

32 Annual Fall Conference Friday, October 19, 3:00 – 3:50 PM — Keynote Session Grand Station I

Keynote Session Presenter: Vanessa German Vanessa German is an award–winning multidisciplinary artist based in the Homewood community of Pittsburgh, PA. The third of five children, Vanessa was born in Wisconsin and raised in Los Angeles. Her mother is a renowned fiber artist who raised her children to make things and create their own stories and entertainment. “We grew up with the ingredients to make stuff . . . and most importantly, fully realized faith in our imaginations. This is how we stayed alive— making our ideas leave our bodies through our hands, becoming tangible—and righteous enough for us to keep wanting to do it.” Vanessa creates contemporary power figures, as she defines them, made of everyday objects transformed into an iconography of astonishing metaphors. Vanessa believes her power figures are alive by sight, and the adventure that sight incites in every piece has its own meaning. Her visual works have been shown in galleries and museums throughout the country and was recently acquired by The Progressive Collection, one of the preeminent corporate contemporary art collections in the nation, The David C. Driscoll Collection, and Franciscan University Collection. Her sculptures will be represented in African American Art 1950–Present, produced by the Driscoll Center and the Smithsonian Institution. Vanessa’s visual and performance work contend with the power and fragility of the human spirit. She grew up surrounded by Africans, Koreans, white folks, Mexican folks, strange folks, gay folks, sights, sounds, and scents according the ever–fabled melting pot. She also grew up at the foot of AIDS and gang violence, churches, co–ops, street vendors, house fires, and street music, from hip hop to meringue, every facet still found fibrous and illuminated in her story. Writer Graham Shearing observes, “She is a witness to what she finds and declares it loudly and passionately, and, for a shy woman, also fearlessly. She intuitively transforms her findings, her evidences, into her work.” Vanessa has pioneered a performance style called Spoken Word Opera, which brings all of the drama and theatricality of traditional opera to intimate performances and contemporary themes through a dynamic hybrid of spoken word poetry, hip hop, storytelling, music and movement. Recent performances include TEDx Harvard, TEDx MIT, and TEDx Pittsburgh. Vanessa has written and performed in four evening–length performance works. As a member of the inaugural 2009/2010 class of fellows at the August Wilson Center of African American Culture, she created Root, a spoken word opera. Vanessa is also the subject of the documentary film Tar Baby Jane. Biography from: http://avam.org/our-visionaries/vanessa-german.shtml

Keynote Session Presenter: Baron Batch Baron Batch referenced as The Artist is a cultural icon, community builder, dot connector, conceptual multimedia artist and entrepreneur based out of Homestead, PA who originally gained popularity through his street art. The Artist has brought the POP–X genre of art, a mix of Pop Art and Expressionism, to the city of Pittsburgh. Growing up in Midland, Texas with many siblings and little money, Baron was a standout football player. When he was sixteen, Baron’s mother was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and tragically passed, leaving her children to take care of each other. Baron turned to football and the Midland community to help him cope with the grief and accompanying anger. Baron attended Texas Tech University where he graduated with a degree in Communications and excelled in his collegiate football career. During the 2011 NFL Draft Baron was selected 232nd overall by the Pittsburgh Steelers. After tearing his ACL during a training camp practice in 2011 he was out for the season. In 2013, the Steelers cut Baron and once again he found himself forging his own future. With strategic financial savings from his football career, Baron moved into an unfinished building in Homestead, started creating art full–time, and began his journey as The Artist. This once unfinished building in Homestead is now Studio A.M., the most creative place on the planet. The Artist serves as Creative Director of the multi–faceted creative collection, that specializes in creative/guerilla marketing and brand strategies, unique and customizable private events/experiences with a top–notch chef. Studio A.M is open to the community

PAEA 2017 41 Art It Up & Notes on Thursdays and Sundays for food service and gallery hours. The space also serves as a production facility for his branded salsa line Angry Man Salsa, a high–quality dipping salsa available online in limited editions. The Artist works with the youth in the Pittsburgh area promoting the message, “With the correct process and sacrifice you can be and do anything you want.” Baron has gained tremendous support in the community since performing #FREE art drops, where he posts photos of giveaway paintings on Twitter and Instagram, leaving clues to their location. During the Summer of 2016, Baron admitted to painting along the riverfront bike trail from Hot Metal Bridge to Homestead. The Artist believes that sometimes great artists paint on things they aren’t supposed to. An arrest warrant was issued by the Pittsburgh Police for numerous counts of criminal mischief involving graffiti. Recently, The Artist opened a creative arts incubator, dubbed The Hideout, that supports artists and like–minded creatives by providing a platform that empowers growing creatives to implement their business and artistic ideas to the Pittsburgh community. The Artist is described as a creative force, and followed by thousands of fans who admire his artwork.
