It became part of the Wattis Institute in 1998. The idea was that it would support organized in the United States. The Wattis also runs the pioneering Capp Street Project, multidisciplinary work by artists while expanding the dialogue around contemporary art founded in San Francisco in 1983, the first visual arts residency in the United States dedicated through workshops and lectures. At this point Capp Street Project is a three month residency solely to the creation and presentation of new art installations. Since its inception, Capp Street that we do twice a year and which provides a substantial grant, a budget for materials, and Project has given more than 100 local, national, and international artists the opportunity to staff support to artists in its exhibition program.

That allows us to have the writing on a very high level. We have understand the history and current realities of this particular exhibition format, the Biennial a print run of about 15,000 and have almost run out of the first two issues so there seems as a large scale international group exhibition, you examine other mayor Biennials made over to be interest in it.

We wanted to explore the periphery of the catered to, or the project is simply so big that real precision is impossible. But I feel that I am periphery if you will. There will be five group exhibitions focusing on very specific topics now at a stage of my career where I have enough experience to be able to handle a biennial around which we place about 45 solo presentations. All is held together by an investigation with 100-plus artists and still be as precise as I would be for a show with 20 artists.

Gonzalez Torres was the first artist to use Untitled as a title followed by further explanation in parenthesis. What are you looking forward to most with respect to the 2011 Wattis exhibition program? How do you manage to find exceptional work that deals with civil war, We have two exhibitions coming up in September 2011 that I am very excited about. dictatorships, poor government infrastructure, and severe poverty? One, Painting Between the Lines, will negotiate the territory between visual and textual The question of whether or not a country is democratic is very subjective.

The other exhibition is titled More American of civil war all over their surfaces, like Lebanon. In all of these places we found people who Photographs after Walker Evans’s well-known show and publication at the Museum of Modern were making exceptional work. Lebanon was one of the big discoveries for me. Nigeria has Art in New York in 1938.

The way I usually do it is to see three artists on the first day of America today with the same “instructions” that were given to Evans and his colleagues in of my trip and ask each one for the names of three other artists, and continue like this for a the 1930s. The instructions were mostly put together by Roy Stryker, who was in charge of few days. Usually artists are the best starting point for research. the FSA photography program. How do you feel your managing of the substantial challenge this biennial presents will affect your approach to large-scale projects in the future?

At the time it made sense that the visual arts program would focus its many years, starting in college. But I didn’t know that much about the art scene, except for energies on artists in the local community. These efforts grew awareness and consciousness well-known artists like Guillermo Gómez-Peña and Enrique Chagoya. I was also familiar with of the vitality of the regional art scene. YBCA became an active catalyst for supporting the the even older generation of artists such as William T. Wiley, Joan Brown and Robert Arneson, ecology that includes artists, commercial galleries, non-profit arts organizations, writers, etc. from the Funk period in the 1960s. I had gained some sense of the history of contemporary When I arrived here two years ago, I came in with the idea that YBCA needed to re-consider art in the Bay Area when I was doing research for an exhibition on the history of California how it could best leverage that position, because San Francisco’s ecology had evolved over art that I organized for the San Diego Museum of Art (SDMA) when I was the curator of the subsequent fifteen plus years. The hub of museums and exhibition spaces big and small in contemporary art there. But as far as what was going on more recently, I would say that I the neighborhood around the intersection of Mission Street and Third Street has expanded learned more about the art scene mostly through the Bay Area Now exhibitions that I had substantially to include SF Camerawork, the Museum of African Diaspora, the Contemporary seen. Jewish Museum, the Cartoon Museum, SPUR Urban Center as well as commercial galleries like Catherine Clark and Baer Ridgway. This institutional community forms a nexus of activity Where did you go to school? and magnetism for audiences. With this evolution it only made sense to re-evaluate how I studied in the PhD program at The Graduate Center, CUNY in New York City. I have an MFA YBCA’s role as the “heartbeat” of San Francisco could best be sustained. One of the ways that from Hunter College and a BA from Goddard College in Vermont. I thought we could be of particular value is to increase our offerings of exhibitions featuring global contemporary art and public art around the building. How has the process of being a curator changed from working on community-based projects, like the Longwood Arts Projects in the South Bronx to your experience at the San Diego Museum of Art, and how has it And you’ve been working with a lot of Latin America-based artists and influenced your vision of what you are trying to do here at YBCA? artists based out of Asia as well. That’s a really good question, because when I was considering whether or not I wanted to take Yes, exactly. I want to create a program that is a resource for local artists, art schools and arts this position, I thought about how I could merge my interests, experiences, and skills from both organizations such as Southern Exposure, the Chinese Cultural Center and Kala Art Institute my Bronx experience and my San Diego experience, which couldn’t have been more opposite. as well as the growing list of commercial galleries. In order to do that, I needed to open it up What I have here is the institutional support to create dynamic contemporary art exhibitions globally. Part of the shift is that we are a bit less artist-centered and more audience oriented, in an atmosphere of innovation and experimentation. The galleries are beautiful and I have with the caveat that the arts community is a significant core audience for YBCA programs enough of a budget to support ideas for complex projects. Since we are an independent across all of the disciplines. At the same time we are committed to guiding audiences through multi-disciplinary contemporary arts center, I am free to produce cutting edge programs and the sometimes difficult and challenging ideas and strategies circulating in the artworks we politically progressive work as well as to mix and match ideas across disciplines. My efforts present, through wall text, brochures, symposiums and social networking activities. have been fully embraced by my colleagues, whereas in a more conventional museum, like the one in San Diego, I often felt like I was working against the tide of a much more conventional So what kind of programming can we expect in 2011? idea of what art should be, what materials artists should use, and what topics artists should In the coming year our major exhibitions are going to be flipping between California and Asia. be addressing.

We will also include eight installations of video- When I was running the gallery in the South Bronx, we worked a lot with emerging artists based and photo-based work focused on the artist’s personal history and his relationship with who were new to New York, who had come from different countries around the world, as his family, especially his father. We are the first venue to exhibit Waste Not in the context of well as local artists living in the outer boroughs. What I started doing there were exhibitions other works by the artist.

So I organized shows on violence, urbanism are hosting a series of six artist conversations led by experts in fields where the Bay Area and personal style, and ethnic identities—topics that had resonance with local communities, plays a leadership role—environmentalism, futurism, radical identities, community activism, but also with the downtown art scene in Soho and the East Village.

With approximately 10,000 square feet of exhibition space, each artist will have enough room to really strut their stuff, with a body of work such as a series of paintings, a Does YBCA function like other institutions as far as having a collection new installation, or a media-based work. The audience will be offered an in-depth experience and expanding it? And if so, what is your role in that? of each artist’s vision. We’re really excited about that. We don’t have a collection; that is the simple answer. And because we don’t have a collection, it means that every time you see works of art in our galleries, we have either borrowed or What is Contemporary Links and is there a similar program you are trying commissioned it. The pace of rotating exhibitions throughout the year is quite demanding and to implement here at YBCA? It seems like already from what we are talking we do not have the option to put works on display from a vault in the basement, works that I about with the extra programming going on during Bay Area Now that may have developed a long-term relationship with. At YBCA we are almost always presenting you’re into creating this kind of multi-faceted programming which brings works that will be on view once in the history of the institution. This makes for very rigorous in the community....Can we expect more of that here? work, where the curator needs to keep up with what is going on in the art scene, as well So when you’re talking about Contemporary Links you’re talking about the program I initiated as in the spheres of ideas and current events. It’s important to stay informed and then to at SDMA, where I commissioned several artists, one at a time, to create new works based on communicate a vision in collaboration with artists and works of art, for compelling and works in the collection, and that way we were able to build a collection of contemporary art timely ideas expressed primarily through the senses. We certainly have many opportunities that already linked to works in the historical departments. Artists were pushed to think outside to present lots of programs. the box and audiences enjoyed seeing the collection through the eyes of a contemporary artist.

McClintock 15 Peter Selz, Founding Director. National Guard in front of BAM (under construction), 1969. Let’s start off with the History of BAM and PFA. Oh yeah. Because the structure is open, its a sequential experience. Each of the galleries are The Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, which is going through some big changes distinct and yet the experience of walking progressively from one gallery to another--you right now, the Museum itself, this building, opened in November of 1970. After several years can only go in one direction. So we do very consciously think about what that experience is, of planning, Peter Selz, the founding director of the museum, who was brought in from the about what the aggregate experience is, about the cumulative experience is from one gallery Museum of Modern Art in New York. Interestingly, the history of this institution and this to another. It becomes really interesting when you’re programming the totality of the building. collection go back to the years just following the founding of the University. The University It’s really quite challenging when an exhibition has to stretch over a couple of galleries. You was founded din 1868, and the first gifts of works of art to the university, and ultimately to experience the overview of the atrium and go back into the gallery--it’s wonderful and its us, were made in 1872. Interestingly, the two major gifts that came in through 1872 and 1880, challenging. Peter curated a number of exhibitions in other spaces before this building opened, and among them were both classical works of art and contemporary works of art. One of and I think the character of our program is very much inspired by our building. A curator the works that we consider one our great classical works in the collection is a landscape by always has to work within the building they operate in. Albert Bierstadt of the Yosemite Valley, painted in 1872, it was a contemporary work of art. Who is the architect? Was that typical of Museums back then? Mario Campi. No it was not. It had a lot to do with the donors at the time, because we didn’t have a museum, we didn’t have a director of the museum, we didn’t have curators or of those structures. It Are there shows curated in the whole space? was reflective of new cultural practice in the Bay Area at the time. Bierstadt was very well Yes, but not usually. It’s a practical issue. We have to de-install the entire museum, and then known across the country, and looking back, it was a great but perhaps unintended model for re-install the entire museum. It’s long, its expensive, and it means the museum is shut down us. I think one of the strengths of this museum and our practice is that we have great historical for a while, on both ends, which we don’t want. masterworks, we are part of the university--the university is our being. So to have these historical and cultural benchmarks as part of the academic experience, and part of the student How many curators are involved with BAM/ PFA? experience here, and part of the way as we as curators and audience consider contemporary There aren’t that many for the amount of programming we do. It’s close to fifteen exhibitions art and also historical art is really important. The way I like to think about it now is this a year, and the film archive has previously produced 400 programs a year, now it’s about mid- kind of conversation, among different cultures, between past and present and present and 400’s. The film archive has three full-time senior curators, another head of collections. So, past. So in our programming, that comes through. A lot our programming is based on our that’s not a lot of people. In the museum, it’s about the same number of curators and about relationship with contemporary artistic practice, contemporary film practice, contemporary an equivalent number of support staff. It’s a really small curatorial staff for the volume of cultural practice, as well as academic investigations and scholarly work. While we may not programming we produce. always be focusing strictly on contemporary art, we hope that the intellectual approach is always that of new ideas and new ways of thinking, with new voices or with expanded voices. I know we already talked a bit about the contemporary programming, but So both historical work and contemporary art are always being approached in a really vital can you elaborate on the mid-career surveys on Ari Marcopolus and Barry way. Interestingly, we find this with so many of the artists who we are working with, living McGee? artists. They, of course, are always working through the process of considering past art, and Both Ari Marcopolus and Barry McGee are mid-career retrospectives, so it falls somewhere so are we, as we should be. I like that to think that being that involved in contemporary in between an emerging artist and a long-gone artist, or a recently gone master like Eva Hesse. practice is as a mandate, in a certain way. It is important because we participate in changes That is something that we want to do more of in our program, more mid-career surveys of in contemporary practice, and that is what is moving us as much as standard art history, or selected artists, who fit in logically not only with the history of our program, but actually I traditional art history. We, of course follow that, but we are always looking for new ideas and think one of the things we try to do in all of the exhibitions is not just continue to do what new approaches and new scholarship. we’ve done in the past but really try to push in as many ways as possible. These are artists who we’re interested in, and are under-recognized in certain ways. Those are all the things you look Let’s talk a little bit more about Peter Selz. for when doing exhibitions of living artists, from your community and other communities. It We are all very lucky that our institution started under his direction, and he is still here, just so happens that Ari and Barry are both from this community. In the case of Eva Hesse, and incredibly active, writing and thinking and investigating and interrogating. He really is this is another area that we consciously explore in our exhibition programs, and that is work an incredible model, not only in the programming, but in the formation that the collection that has connections to our collection. And we have one very major Eva Hesse piece called took. You realize that for about a hundred years, and this is fairly common in institutions, “Aught”, four huge panels, a really exquisite piece. In addition to that, we have an extensive the collection was built just by gifts, with nobody really directing those gifts. And the time collection of what have formerly been called her test pieces, that came from her studio, and that Peter came in, and the time the museum was established...and I do need to say that this is where she experimented with materials. New scholarship, that the scholar Briony Fer a big reason this museum exists is because of an incredible gift the artist Hans Hofmann has done, has really investigated how Eva Hesse worked in her studio, and these processes made. And it is not only because he gave us 47 of his own, some of them fresh from the in her studio that were so central to her practice. This in an exhibition that has been in the studio, but also in 1963 he gave us $250,000. That was to ensure that a proper museum was works for a long time, almost half of the exhibition is from our collection. We were not able to built, not only for his collection, but the other collections as well. So again, this conversation organize the exhibition, so it was organized brilliantly by the Fruitmarket gallery in Edinburgh. between contemporary art and historical art is really the basis of our work. Peter really It opened in Edinburgh about a year and a half ago, and it has traveled to London, Barcelona, shaped the direction of the collection, of how an institution would put together a collection its currently in Toronto, and the exhibition will come to us. It’s a really important show for us. in a vibrant university like ours, without unlimited resources, with focused resources. And also I think it will be really eye-opening too. something that would have a kind of breadth in the collection, that would offer something to our community. Let’s talk a little bit about your history with the space, and how you came to be head curator here. Would you say that the way the museum is laid out, the physical nature of I came just about 10 years ago, and my original position was Curator of Collections, so my it, adds to that dialogue? focus was on the collections. This is a museum program I’ve known all of my career. I have been A large crowd inside BAM. 17 Ari Marcopoulos, Within Arm’s Reach 2009. a curator for many year, mostly in University museums. I am a trained Art Historian, but my practice has almost always been with contemporary art. My first full-time curatorial job was as curator of exhibitions at the art museum at The California State University at Long Beach. “We want our exhibitions to both lend understanding I oversaw all the exhibitions, but in particular an exhibition program called “Centric”, which was modeled after the MATRIX program here. I collaborated a lot with the then MATRIX and new information, but we also want to create curator, Connie Lewallen. But also, along the way, I’ve done a lot of historical exhibitions. So exhibitions that inspire the viewer through contact when I came here, this responsibility for historical work and contemporary work was really kind of perfect for me. Professionally, I’ve gone from kind of being a specialist to a generalist. with the art and the ideas. It’s not that the exhibitions I think particularly in an educational environment at a university, that is what is so engaging to me--to be involved in new ideas about historical work. I am very interested in keeping our are just directed toward scholars and those who put collections really vital, the way in which we approach them vital and lively. So, one exhibition the exhibition together, but they are meant to generate might be contemporary, and another might not. I was co-curator of the Peter Paul Rubens exhibition in 2005, which was not contemporary by any means. We developed the exhibition response, experience, and new ideas.” with two other institutions, because of the Peter Paul Rubens oil sketch in our own collection. So taking the major parts of our collection, and using them as springboards to re-examine scholarship or do new scholarship. too, and it is a close conversation. One of the things that we do quite a lot of, and there is a long history of this here, is we have a very high percentage of exhibitions that are on view at What is the programming with MATRIX? any time that are from our collections. But they are not titled “Collection Exhibitions.”, They It is one of the oldest museum programs like this. It started in 1978 by then director Jim are really thought out and they are thematic, like Larry Rinder’s exhibition “Hauntology”. Elliott. He had actually invented the Matrix Program at another museum. At the time it was That exhibition came out of a number of different ideas. One of them was we wanted to introduced, museums did not have a way to very quickly show contemporary art, to very feature a number of our new acquisitions. Rather than just saying “This is a new acquisitions quickly respond to new art and new thinking. And that was the whole idea of the program, exhibition,” Larry started thinking about a way to investigate a relationship between the to really break ground, to push what a museum could do. MATRIX been doing that for over works of art. Many of the new works that we were bringing into the collection were targeted 30 years. to some degree because of this ongoing dialogue with the collection. To create exhibitions that explore that dialogue are really quite wonderful and important for us to do. We are going Why do you think more museums don’t have that immediate dialogue? to be showing early next year a group of James McNeill Whistler prints, which came to us in They do. The MATRIX Program has been modeled in almost every major museum in the a very important gift in the last year. The approach that I took to it, is to look at Whistler’s country. The Contemporary Arts Museum in Houston has a Perspectives series, SF MOMA work, and to also think about work by the Bay Area artist Robert Bechtle, who has for many has a New Work Program, the Saint Louis Art Museum has a Current series. All of these years looked at Whistler’s work. And we have a great early Bechtle painting in our collection, initially came out of this idea of having a program that allows museums to be a little more and have just added two recent works on paper. So, in part this is the way I want people to spontaneous about current practice. So the character of the MATRIX Program has morphed consider Whistler’s work. I think that’s another thing that’s important about our program. a little bit with every curator that has been here in every phase of the MATRIX Program, We want our exhibitions to both lend understanding and new information, but we also want and it really should because it should be responsive to changes in artistic practice. You’ll to create exhibitions that inspire the viewer through contact with the art and the ideas. It’s see that many of the exhibitions by Liz Thomas, who is the MATRIX curator now, many of not that the exhibitions are just directed toward scholars and those who put the exhibition A large crowd inside BAM. those programs are about a kind of socially engaged practice. It is very reflective of what together, but they are meant to generate response, experience, and new ideas. is happening around the world, it is always meant to be an international program. It’s really exciting and open-ended. An example of this kind of unique experience is the recent screening of the historical film, Voices of Light/The Passion of Joan of Arc by the great Danish filmmaker Carl Theodor Can you please talk a bit about the idea of sustainable collections, and Dreyer. It was part of a Dreyer retrospective the PFA created. They presented this particular how it seems there are not a lot of sustainable collection practices in big film at the Paramount Theatre in Oakland with a live orchestra and chorale groups form UC institutions. Berkeley. There were over 2000 people in the audience, and almost everyone said it was one What is on my mind in that area now is how we continue to be adventurous, and forward of those lifetime experiences--it was an incredible, awe-inspiring experience. This is what we thinking. Forward thinking often is adventurous, and risk-taking. And how we do that at the aim for, the highest levels. That is really what we hope we are presenting. same time that we are cautious, and that we are fully aware of how we can care for works of art, how we can provide space for them, conditions for them, physical care. One of the things How does the MFA program here function with the museum--what is the that is very important to us, is that we collect works of art, that if they are not already directly relationship? tied to our program, that they have a shared sensibility. We aren’t collecting arbitrarily, we’re We present the MFA exhibition every year in May. I haven’t overseen it directly, but it is really really thinking about future programs, we’re thinking about relationships and about exploring a wonderful program. In the past several years, the Matrix Curator and a curatorial assistant in new territory. The tricky part is the materials, and volume of what we are collecting. We’re the department work with the art faculty and the Masters students all year. They begin talking right in the process for doing a long-term plan for storage, both in our building and off site. about and planning the exhibition, working with them in their studios, to give the as much of And, what are some of the conditions that you need for storage and how do you raise money an opportunity to show the work that they are in the process of doing. They become involved for that. Another part of that, is how do we continue to make the collections accessible as in a professional exhibition as part of their training here. It is handled with the same respect they grow. All of these things need to be thought about and planned together, and that is a and diligence that every other exhibition in the museum is. It is in one of the main galleries, challenge for all institutions. there is a publication and a celebration. The MFA students are involved in the installation, and so it is an incredible learning experience. You will see every year that the students are terrific, Do you think technology will change this, and that institutions should start some of them are already showing at galleries at the time. having their collections on-line? Well, you can. And, I think one of the more important things in this, is that your programming keeps a real vital sensibility and exploration of the collections.

Tom Marioni The Management Reserves the Right to Refuse Service to Anyone who Doesn’t Know Where They Are or What is Going on. Written by John Held Jr. portrait A. McClintock 19 In 1970, Tom Marioni initiated two events, which developed in tandem over the years. The latter was his exhibition, “The Act of Drinking Beer with Friends is the Highest Form of Art,” performed and installed under the pseudonym Allan Fish at the Oakland Museum. Tom later wrote that, “It was an important work for me, because it defined Action rather than Object as art.” Earlier that year, Tom had begun The Museum of Conceptual Art to explore a more radical art then could be presented at the Richmond Art Center, where he was still curator. The Museum lasted for fourteen years, until 1984. In 1973, he began a series of videotape showings at the Museum every Wednesday afternoon. In 1976, an announcement went out reading, “Café Society in Breen’s Café downstairs 2-4 every Wednesday in the saloon of MOCA. “I wanted to try to recreate the café scene of artists and writers in Paris in the 20s. I thought of Café Society as drunken parties where ideas are born.” In other writings, he elaborated. “My Café Society became a kind of open house for artists, The Museum of Conceptual Art at the San Francisco Museum of Art 1979 (Free Beer) an artists’ bar, really. In New York, a lot of artists were living in the same neighborhood, SoHo, which had bars where they hung out. But the only way to get an artists’ scene going in San switched to calling it ‘Café Wednesday.’ As of 2000 it is called the Society of Independent Francisco was to do it in an artificial way, by formalizing it, by inviting people.” Artists, SIA, which was the name of the organization that exhibited Duchamp’s famous urinal in 1917.” “This is a social artwork for me, another kind of invisible work. When Breen’s closed in ’79, I moved to the bar next door, Jerry & Johnny’s. In 1980, I printed artists’ credit cards and gave The early video exhibition Wednesday’s tended to be “bring your own, serve yourself” affairs. one to any artist who asked for it. The artist would show the card to the bartender in order Upon moving to Breen’s, thenceforth to Jerry & Johnny’s and the House of Shields, Wednesday to get free beer.” evening patrons were served by the staff of the respective establishments. Breen’s began reserving tables for Café Society members, reminding visitor Hans Haacke of the German “In 1984 I closed MOCA…I changed the name of my meetings to ‘Academy of MOCA.’ My custom stamstich, or family tables, whereby drinking establishments reserved seating for meetings were an academy like in the time of Aristotle, basically a bunch of people hanging special interest groups on particular days. out, drinking and having conversations.” After the 1989 earthquake precipitated a move to the Crown Point Press building, Joyce “The Academy of MOCA met at Jerry and Johnny’s for ten years until the ’89 earthquake Umamoto became the resident bartender, a position she undertook until 1995; first in the in San Francisco closed it permanently. I was without a hangout for about six months, but space currently occupied by Hawthorn Lane restaurant, and later to Tom’s current studio, temporary Wednesdays continued first in the House of Shields bar a block away and later at where we now gather. the Capp Street Project, an art space where I had an exhibition. Then I got a new studio. There was no bar downstairs, so I built one in my studio.” Upon departure of Umamoto as resident bartender, frequent visitors were encouraged to sign up as bartender, allowing them the opportunity to invite three guests. As a result, fresh “For two years, 1990-1992, until the Berkeley Art Museum at the University of California faces and ideas are infused into the situation. As of November 2007, fifty-one guest bartenders bought my archives, I called my Wednesday meetings ‘Archives of MOCA,’ and after that I had obtained Graduate Bartender status by volunteering to staff the bar three times. Twenty- seven of the Graduate Bartenders are women. Critics have commented that Tom’s Wednesday’s hark back to ritual and/or celebration. Tom has stated that it could perhaps be linked to pagan ritual. Indeed, portraits of his idols (Duchamp, Brancusi, Cage, et al.) overlook the proceedings. At various times, Tom has compared his weekly art salon to Aristotle’s informal teaching method, a Japanese tea ceremony, and a “site- specific, socially engaged installation.” At times, these “socially engaged situations” produce situational artworks. Members of the Society have been pressed into the service of communal concerts, films, exhibitions, and… readings. Jazz fills the background of Society proceedings, and it is through this medium thatTom compares his intentions. “My social art and my performance art are influenced by jazz. The way combo jazz is written traditionally is to start all together, improvise in the middle, and all finish together. In jazz improvisation the musicians have back-and-forth abstract conversation. There is freedom in jazz but there are rules too. As I have said before, I have house rules so I can have control. Art is manipulation. In theater the actor manipulates the audience’s emotions. In concrete action/performance art the artist does not play to the audience; he manipulates material and the audience is witness to it. The guests in the Wednesday events are free agents. They do not have a script to work from…we have a back-and-forth conversation.” Museum of Conceptual Art (MOCA) 1970-1984, founded by Tom Marioni. First floor Breens Cafe.

John Held, Jr.: I’m in Tom Marioni’s studio “water closet.” He’s got this cartoon from TM: Social lubricant. I refer to it as an aid to communication. Okay. “Any carbonated The New Yorker pinned up…two dogs walking down the street, and one of them says, “What drinks must be opened in the WC room.” Well, the bathroom door has a WC on I do as an artist is take an ordinary object, say a lamppost, and by urinating on it, transform it it.

I’m the janitor, so I don’t want to clean it up. That is what Tom Marioni has done over thirty-five years with his weekly gathering of artists. “No cans except for Tecate beer.” I want only bottles because they are a noble He’s transformed it into a work of Art.

Over JH: David Ireland used to drink Foster’s from the can. many years, its undergone refinement, becoming a model of how an artistic community can perpetuate itself over a prolonged period.

The cowboy would I view the House Rules of the Society of Independent Artists as the finetuning of Utopia. I never drink beer out of a glass. think the rules are indicative of what you’ve observed over a thirty-five year period, and what it takes to maintain this art community. So, let’s go through the rules. I love the first one. Why “Bartenders can invite up to 3 guests.” That’s how new people can get introduced don’t you read it for me? into the scene. Tom Marioni: Well, I had to make these rules. It started out thirty-seven years ago as a “Guests do not invite guests without checking with Tom.” That’s obvious. meeting in a bar – a public place. So, it didn’t have to have rules. But since 1990, I moved it into my studio, and then it became an artist club, so I had to establish rules so I could keep out the “No theater people, except famous movie stars.” And the reason for that is that riff-raff. Over time, over the last twenty years, it’s been in my studio, and I’ve made rules, but theater people are just too theatrical. they’ve changed over time, because sometimes they don’t apply anymore. For instance, one of them was, “No slides of artwork.” Well, nobody uses slides anymore, so it’s an obsolete rule. “No art students except those that can pass as professionals.” That’s obvious, too. The most important rule then, a more recent one, like in the last five years is,The “ management reserves the right to refuse service to anyone who doesn’t “No touching objects or books on shelves.” know where they are or what is going on.” Sometimes people would bring a guest, sometimes uninvited, and they wouldn’t know what was happening, or where they were. I “No art collectors, except in disguise.” Art collectors might introduce themselves as wanted people to know… art collectors, as if that was a profession, and then artists might embarrass themselves in front of others in my studio by kissing up to them. So, I don’t want any of that there. They should JH: …they should be in the moment and know what the moment is composed of. do that in private. (Both laugh). TM: Right.

But sometimes there’s leftovers. o’clock we’re really into a great discussion, but it’s not always about art. JH: You’ve written elsewhere that beer is a lubricant to social discourse. “No popcorn unshelled peanuts or cake.” I don’t want my studio all messed up. JH: You’re the janitor. TM:Yes, I’m the janitor (laughs), and I don’t want to change the mood of this into some kind of tea party with cake and candles. “Leave the bathroom door closed and the light on.” “The SIA sends out e-mail notices only for SIA business.” Ok, so that’s all – that’s all clear- those are the house rules now.

I’m sure I am. Do you see any theoretical background to this? TM: I’m a romantic, and I wanted to create - back in the seventies - why I started the Museum of Conceptual Art, and why I founded Vision magazine that I was editor of, and why I formed a couple of music groups, was to try to create a scene for outsiders like myself. I didn’t go to the Art Institute. I wasn’t born here. I moved here after art school. This was a very closed community in the old days. If you didn’t go to the Art Institute, and your work didn’t have angst and it wasn’t expressionistic, you weren’t accepted. So I wanted to create a scene for outsiders like myself, and I became, in a way, the establishment, because now I’m an elder art statesman in San Francisco. tommarioni.com JH: I guess there’s a payoff after thirty-five years of service.

Griff, can you talk about your background and your involvement Urban Color? with Gallery 16? The Gallery and the Fine Art Press have always had a kind of symbiotic relationship. In the Well, I am an artist and I came to San Francisco to go to the graduate program at SFAI, this early days of our business, like every young alternative space, we found ourselves having a very was 1991. And upon getting out of the graduate program there, I decided to start an exhibition difficult time making ends meet, strictly by virtue of what we were selling. So we wanted to program and was really interested in the idea of connecting myself to the community of artists have a revenue stream that would allow us to have more flexibility and take greater chances in that were living in San Francisco. A lot of the things I was interested in showing, I didn’t see terms of what we were showing. So the Press was really designed to function two ways: One being shown in other venues. So, right after I got out of graduate school, I launched Gallery was to be able to act as a resource for artists and photographers around the nation, and also 16 with a partner who started Urban Digital Color in 1993. to be able to provide a revenue stream to fund the exhibition program. I mean, it’s ebbed and flowed over the years. In the early days, DUC was really critically important to the economic What are the primary goals of Gallery 16? survival of Gallery 16, and nowadays, G16 makes more money than the Press does. So, it has Well, I guess they’ve changed a bit over the years. For a long time I saw it as an extension of supported itself in different ways over the course of its history. an artist’s studio because we are involved in so many different activities related to artmaking. I think the fundamental tenet is the idea of giving artists the freedom to use our space, So it’s the co-existent relationship between DUC and Gallery 16 that equipment and resources in the way that they want to--the idea of giving artists the freedom enables survival in the current art market today? to experiment in the space. I’ve always bristled at the notion that we’re strictly a commercial Well, in the early days the printing and editions and publishing that we were doing made up the gallery or that we’ve operated in the service of the marketplace. We really don’t. We’re not lion’s share of the revenue that we were making. We always kind of thought of it as our version advocating for the benefit of collectors, we’re advocating for the authority of the artist. In of listener sponsored radio. People that were hiring us to make editions were supporting the some ways, I think we’ve always kind of operated in this kind of chasm between the alternative artists that we were inviting to present exhibitions at Gallery 16. We didn’t advertise it that space and the commercial space; it’s kind of a hybrid of these two things. way necessarily, but we were spending the money that was generated through the printing press on the artists projects and installations that the gallery presented. Nowadays, because 23 we’ve been around for 16 years, the art market has grown up around us, the artists that we’ve shown over the years have increased in value, so, the gallery probably makes the lion’s share of our revenue. But it is still important that the businesses function in tandem. Every artist that we invite to participate in the exhibition schedule is invited to publish an edition or a book or a multiple of some kind. So in that way, it’s kind of like an artist residency. How has the fight surrounding federal funding for the National Endowment for the Arts shaped the model that became Gallery 16? Before I went to graduate school, I spent some time in Washington DC lobbying Congress on interview Gregory Ito behalf of artists spaces--like Artist’s Space in New York and Highways in Los Angeles. During this period, federal funding for the arts, particularly as it related to the National Endowment for the Arts, was dwindling rapidly, and under attack. This was absolutely true for the arts program for individual artists. So when I finished grad school and was thinking of ways to develop a self-sustaining exhibition space, the idea of creating a non-profit model made no sense to me whatsoever, partly because I felt like the pool of resources that arts organizations had at their disposal was diminishing. The religious right and the conservative Congress at the time wanted to eliminate the National Endowment for the Arts entirely. The NEA has always been a great leveraging device to raise private money. The amount of money that the Federal government spends on arts every year is a paltry sum, but it leverages a great deal of private money. When the leverage is gone, so goes some of the private interest in philanthropic endeavors. I did not want to become a full-time fundraiser, and I certainly thought that the New book, “16 Years at Gallery 16” notion of following this traditional non-profit model would make me a full-time fundraiser. I figured that the support of these projects would be better realized if I just funded it myself. So I think the culture wars, this period in the 90s where we were fighting over the value of the group show mentality, which is more curatorial driven. I wouldn’t say that we are totally supporting the visual arts as a country...I think that really helped set the tone for me deciding anti-curatorial in principle, but we’ve definitely favored allowing artists to develop bodies of to go on a more entrepreneurial path with the business. work under their own conditions. In that way, I think it’s more supportive of the individual artist, rather than imposing our curatorial conditions upon them. You guys talk a lot about the development of technology and the growing relationship between technology and art. How does your programming Gallery 16 was started in the Mission? present this? Potrero Hill. 1616 16th Street. That’s where the name came from. Well I think we talk about it because it was so fundamental to the way we started. Gallery 16 as an exhibition program hasn’t ever been primarily invested in work that is made with Now you’re in the SOMA South Beach Area. Can you talk about this technology. It has not been a curatorial focus or a specific interest of ours from the standpoint transition? The difference in communities, and the progression or of the artwork that is made. But, rather, it afforded us all these opportunities to exist. In the digression of the artists community in these areas. early 90s when we started, we were amongst only three other places in the country that used The whole notion of the “arts community” is a funny one. The community of artists is one portrait A.McClintock the kind of printing technology that we had for artistic purposes. We used it to allow artists thing, and that was initially the community I was interested in connecting with. As an artist to experiment. I think we broke some ground from the standpoint of the kinds of things that myself, I wanted to know the other artists that were working here, and have interesting were being made with technology at the time. Certainly some of the early shows that we dialogues about what people were up to. But the buying public, the viewing public, that’s a were doing were seminal exhibitions with artists like Lynn Hershman and Rebecca Bollinger. very different thing. The people who are going to come to Michelle Grabner’s show are not Many of these artists have gone on to do really amazing things with technology as a function, necessarily going to come to Lowell Darlings. We have a show of photographs, and people in part, of their studio practice. But, for us, it was both a resource opportunity--a way for us who collect sculpture don’t go to see photography. There isn’t one art community. People talk to make money and be self-sustaining--and also to offer the technology to artists to create about it like there is, but there isn’t. There are a lot of different little communities. We used to something new. So it was like the best of both worlds. We had this equipment, and we wanted be on Potrero Hill with a third floor walk up, squirreled away--you couldn’t see us from the to use it to produce artwork. street. You really had to know that we were there to even be aware of our existence. It was really a destination, there wasn’t much around. CCA hadn’t opened their campus up yet, the Are you the primary curator of the space? Center for the Book hadn’t opened. Now, we’ve moved to this corridor between the ballpark Well, I own it, so yeah, I get to do what I want. But, I’ve been fortunate to have great staff and SFMOMA, we’re on street level, and very visible. It’s fundamentally about more visibility over the years. Vanessa Blaikie and Troy Peters are totally involved with every aspect of the and providing more attention to the artist that we’re working with, which was kind of the business. There is constant conversation about the kind of things that we are going to be point all the way through. exhibiting and publishing. It’s a community effort around here, but, yes, ultimately the decisions are mine. Can you discuss on your thoughts in regards to the city of San Francisco in comparison to cities like Los Angeles and New York? Does Gallery 16 focus on solo shows or group shows? In terms of the quality of artwork that’s produced, and the artists that live and work in those Solo shows, primarily. The space has always been run from the perspective of an artist. Right communities, it’s not radically different. There are certainly conceptual differences between from the beginning, I knew I wanted to create a place that I would want to show in. It was the objects that are made in LA, New York and San Francisco. But I think that artists that important to me that artists understand our faith in them. That faith extends itself to the live in this city make a distinct decision to be here because of the obvious benefits of living question of group shows versus solo shows. We’ve always felt that it was important to allow in a place like San Francisco. Clearly different from the urban sprawl of Los Angeles, and the artists to do precisely what they want in the space, as a mechanism of support, as opposed to density of New York, and the careerism that accentuates both of those places. San Francisco Stephen Hendee. “I think the fundamental tenet is the idea of giving artists the free- dom to use our space, equipment and resources in the way that they want to--the idea of giving artists the freedom to experiment in the space.” Margaret Kilgallen, 1997. is a different kind of community in that way. It’s never supported the arts in terms of the marketplace in the same way that places like LA and NY do. But I think it gives artists much more freedom to explore here. It allows for the opportunity to create a life in the arts as opposed to a career in the arts. When did Gallery 16 start publishing? We started publishing just a couple of months after the businesses opened. What was Gallery 16’s first published book? Well we always invited artists to create something while they were exhibiting with Gallery 16. So again, it was just a way of experimenting and learning about the technology and the methods of printmaking forms that we were investigating at the time. Every artist that we invite has the opportunity to create something different. So we had to figure out a way Charles Linder to make those things--it was a big learning curve. In the early days, we were making really complicated hand-bound books, and limited editions. Special collections libraries and book collectors were collecting them. The prints, books and multiples we were making were expensive and complicated to produce. Our publishing now is often a response to those early, really expensive and limited production runs. It was disarming to realize that we weren’t even able to afford the things we were making. We found ourselves selling artwork to a community of people who could afford it. These people weren’t our peers. So we started making books that were much cheaper to own and hopefully would spread the word a little more, in a more populist way. But, to answer your question, I think Ann Chamberlain’s “Stain” was our first published book. So you publish books so that the artist’s work can be more obtainable? That’s one reason. It’s definitely more true to the original concept of printmaking. The printing press was designed to communicate with as many people as possible, so our efforts now are more in that spirit for sure. Sonny Smith performs. Rex Ray Stephen Hendee. What are some of the benefits that come with printed material in contrast to the internet and the free forms we see on the web? Well, I’m not sure that we aren’t watching something disappear before our eyes. The nature of the printed page seems to be really important to certain communities and utterly irrelevant to others. I’ve got a 15 year-old and he consumes every bit of information that he gets from the media online. He has a very different relationship to the printed book, or printed material in general. I may be simply embracing a kind of nostalgia. I mean, its truly important to me; I understand that this discrete physical object has a beginning and an end, a tactility, a physicality that has been carefully designed. But, I don’t know if it’s important to the coming generations. Having said that, I don’t think these ideas are mutually exclusive. I think both can and should exist in the world; they represent fundamentally different ways of experiencing information. Can you talk about the new book Gallery 16 is publishing? We are really excited to be publishing a book about the last 16 years of the gallery. It’s called “These Are The People In Your Neighborhood.” It’s a look at the life of Gallery 16, and there 15 year anniversary show, installation view. are about 75 artists represented in the book. There are probably another forty artists that didn’t get into the book because of space limitations, which is a shame because I would have loved to include them all. There are essays by Maria Porges, Glen Helfand and Mark Van Proyen. I think it is an interesting story of how we’ve merged these businesses and created a new model for art support. But it’s also a rich history of the Bay Area’s artist community. There are some amazing artists that we have had the opportunity to work with over the years. And we felt like it was really important, at this point in our history, to look back and honor the artists that we have had had the pleasure to work with. Are there any shows that we can look forward to at Gallery 16? Charles Linder In January and February we will be presenting recent editions we’ve produced with Shaun O’Dell, Amy Ellingson, Stefan Kirkeby and Inez Storer. We are going to follow that up with a Michelle Grabner and Brad Killam. show of new work by Deborah Oropallo. In May we will present a show with Tucker Nichols, a local superstar. He’s becoming a real fan favorite in San Francisco. Throughout the year, we have exhibitions that sprinkle new artists like Jared Sprecher that we’re showing for the first time, with artists we have worked with for many years like Rex Ray in September. Any shout outs or special thanks? I have so many, I wouldn’t know where to start. I owe a huge debt to everyone who has made it possible for us to continue. We’ve made it through some really turbulent times with the support of so many people in this community. San Francisco is an amazing town that way. I don’t think we could have made this particular business model work in any other city in the country. 26 Sonny Smith performs.

Top: Jeff Koon’s is currently suing Park Life for selling Interview Gregory Ito these balloon dogs because of their likeness to his balloon photos A. McClintock dog sculpture. What a JERK! 27 Jamie Alexander and Derek Song began a business venture, which evolved, and grew into a conglomerate of art known as Park Life. It is a space that caught my attention long ago, and is now a perfect candidate for this interview discussing their artistic obsessions. Park Life has become the diamond in the rough, in the cold and foggy Richmond District of San Francisco. The partnership between Jamie Alexander and Derek Song has made Park Life known for what it is today, presenting work from some of the most under-appreciated young emerging artists. The following interviews begin with Jamie Alexander, who is a current board member and chair of the Program Committee of the Headlands Center of the Arts, discussing Park Life’s gallery and store as well as his supernatural abilities of collecting great artwork. The second part of this interview with Derek Song is about Park Life’s Paper Museum Press, and the experiences of working with artists on publishing their books. Enjoy. Jamie Alexander When and how did Park Life begin? Park Life evolved from a desire to pursue some of the real interests I had...things I felt strongly about...contemporary art and the culture and community around it, specifically in the Bay Area. I’d reached a point after working for several years in water resource consulting and the internet where I wanted to do something more fulfilling. I’d always felt a strong connection to contemporary art since I was young through friends and organizations, and also through When choosing the items you have for sale in Park Life store, does the visiting museums, galleries, and reading about it…and buying work occasionally. But I had curatorial duties of the various items in the store differ from the artwork no real vision about making a living in that world. About 6 years ago I met Derek Song who shown in the gallery? shared a lot of similar interests with me, and we started discussing business ideas. He’d been There is definitely a link between the products in the store and the artwork we show. Maybe managing a retail store and putting some art shows together…two things I knew little about. not with everything but overall. We look at the store products as sort of entry level products He also was interested in publishing books. Park Life sort of grew organically from there… to the higher priced art and editions. We try to stock the store with unique things that are and our aesthetic started taking shape and the retail, publishing and gallery really just took off. new and not widely available…it’s a lot of work but it keeps us moving forward. And we spend I think we both found something we felt passionate about and with the help of a lot of friends as much if not more time working with artists to create limited edition objects…tees, prints, we have been gaining momentum ever since. etc…as we do curating the gallery shows. Selecting the items in the store is a personal thing for me…it’s stuff I’d buy and basically my personal aesthetic. Park Life is in what some people consider a non-art district when compared to the Mission or the SOMA in San Francisco. How did you choose to make Clement and 3rd Streets your home for business? Park Life has invited a number of people to curate shows. When did you We spent months considering neighborhoods all over San Francisco…the Mission, Hayes begin to share the curatorial duties at Park Life? What kinds of experiences Valley, Fillmore, Soma, etc. The first, obvious choice would have been the Mission… it’s widely have you had working with other curators like yourself? considered the center of the arts community in the Bay Area and home to a very strong I started to let other people I knew curate in 2008…Rich Jacobs, Serena-Mitnik Miller, Dave aesthetic and it’s where I live. We ultimately decided that we wanted to take a little risk and Kasperzak, Andrew Schoultz…they were some of the first curators in the gallery. I think try something different. We also wanted to create a destination space…making the idea of a that idea was me trying to let others help and bring fresh ideas. In the coming year I’m highly trafficked location a little irrelevant. We also wanted to find an area where we actually excited about having shows curated by Jessica Brier, Joey Piziali and Vanessa Blaikie, and Austin liked the idea of spending a lot of time.

But I quickly realized there was potential, and that there were special qualities of the neighborhood that I didn’t see in other places. It really freed us up to create something Has Park Life participated in any art fairs? If so what are some of your new and not rely on any other established ideas. The Inner Richmond really is a diverse and experiences with them? Do you feel the general public should visit such special area and I think commercially it has a lot of potential.

As far as an aesthetic, I guess we have one, but I don’t feel tied This is a question asked by many, and I would like to do the same. What are to it and like the idea of branching out. We just show art and artists we feel a connection to. your thoughts on the artistic community of San Francisco when compared Something that separates us from traditional gallery spaces is the fact that we don’t have to to cities like New York and Los Angeles? Do you feel SF is in anyway a rely on art sales to pay the bills…the retail store covers that so we’re more free to experiment major influence to artists in these cities? And do you think SF will ever be in the gallery… i.e. show more emerging artists that don’t have established markets. in the spotlight again after riding the wave created by the Mission School movement years ago? The Bay Area has always had a very strong arts community…great art schools, teachers, administrators, galleries, curators, non-profits, etc. Where I see deficiencies when compared to LA and NY is in the collector base and maybe the arts coverage. There just isn’t the same level of support. Maybe it’s a numbers game…LA and NY have relatively large populations but SF is a pretty well-heeled population and you don’t see people spending a lot of money on emerging and contemporary art. There is a dedicated and passionate collector base here, but it’s not very big. I feel it’s growing though. The Bay Area print media is also a bit underwhelming. I think what you guys have started with SFAQ is really great and needed. As far as SF influencing the overall art world, yes, I think definitely so. The Bay Area has always been at the forefront of the arts in America…50s Abstract Expressionist Painters, the Beats, 60s Psych Rock, the Mission School, I’m sure there’s another important movement happening right now too. And my feeling about the so-called Mission School of painters that formed in SF during the 90s is that they (Johanson, Kilgallen, McGee and others) literally influenced a generation of artists all over the world and it will be documented as an important part of art history in the years to come. What do you feel is the current state of art in San Francisco? We have seen many galleries leave SF like Jack Hanley, and many have closed their doors forever. Is SF a progressive artistic community? Does the work produced by artists in SF stand up to others in the international arena? Jack Hanley was an important part of the Bay Area art scene for a long time and will be missed, but I think that SF is the kind of community that keeps moving ahead and will quickly fill that void if it has not already. There are so many smart and interesting artists working throughout the Bay Area today that defy being categorized and put in a scene. I think that when anyone tries to sum up a city’s art scene based on a couple of artists or a style it is a disservice to the greater art community. It can be marginalizing. Some of the most influential artists working today, internationally and otherwise, are from or have spent time in the Bay Area. So, yes, it stands up. We do tend to lose artists to NY and LA quite a bit, but I think that’s more of a market driven variable. There was a really good discussion of this effect earlier this year on SFMOMA’s blog started by Renny Pritikin I think. Other than showing work, I have been told that you have quite a collection. How did you begin collecting? I’ve been collecting art for a while and it’s a bit of an obsession, but ever since I’ve had some disposable income I’ve been buying art. I’m pretty impulsive about it. The first substantial work (for me) I ever bought was probably about 12 years ago…a Barry McGee Bottle…he was the first artist whose work I really felt the need to possess. What kinds of artwork do you have? What artists speak to you? I’m a big Mission School fan of course. I really like the programs of SF galleries like Ratio 3, Silverman Gallery, Baer Ridgeway, Altman Siegel, Anthony Meier, Jancar Jones, Jack Hanley (rip), Ping Pong gallery, etc. SF has a lot of good galleries. What is your role as a collector, and has collecting influenced your curatorial duties at Park Life? As a collector I just buy what I like, though lately it’s more of a “Do I have the room for that?” question. Space becomes an issue. As far as curating relating to my collecting, sure, I’d love to host a Jules De Balincourt show at Park Life, but I don’t think that’s going to happen soon.I do like to buy stuff from our gallery shows occasionally… if the artist approves. “But I quickly realized there was po- tential, and that there were special qualities of the neighborhood that I didn’t see in other places. It really freed us up to create something new and not rely on any other established ideas.” -Jamie Alexander 29 Derek Song Tell us how Park Life’s venture in publishing began. Even before there was a Park Life, our first project was a monograph for Andrew Schoultz. It was during the time when Jamie and I were getting the book together that the idea of Park Life first took shape. Since then we have published four titles under the imprint Paper Museum Press. Are there any advantages to publishing books in comparison to the activities of hosting shows in a gallery or collecting work? We think the greatest advantage is the opportunity to personally work with artists that we couldn’t show in the gallery. For example, we are working on a book with Chris Ballantyne. He is represented by Hostfelt gallery so we can’t really work with Chris on a solo show but the book project allows us to collaborate. Publishing really gives us another option to work with artists who in other aspects we couldn’t reach. By publishing books of an artist’s work, you are working together on something that will be in the public area. What is it like when collaborating with these artists on their books? Since all our publishing projects have been monographs, the creative experience has been totally based on each individual artist. Some have been very hands on and others have given us the reigns regarding design, etc. Ultimately, the goal is to have the end product be as close to the artist’s vision as possible. Most shows are up for a month and are never repeated, but a book is forever. What are the advantages to printed material? How does print influence the artistic community? Like you said, shows are temporal; some that are really strong do influence other artists, which is cool. But a book is tangible and lets the viewer experience the work over and over. Looking back at some of our books, it’s neat how they act as markers for an artist’s career. You can see what phase they were in and how their work has changed. Print has a huge effect on the artistic community. I’m not going to come off as an expert, but the zine movement that really took off in the 80s allowed anyone with a voice to get his message across. Also, if you visit most artist’s studios or homes they have a substantial collection of art books and periodicals. I can’t think of an artist that hasn’t been influenced by something they have seen in print. Being a visual medium makes sense. Do most of the books you publish feature one artist, or do you also make books that deal with a particular theme or movement? Currently we have only done monographs. A couple of years ago we were working on a collection of book covers for one of our favorite publishers but that project didn’t come together. I do love monographs but I’m not opposed to branching out into other formats. What upcoming books can we look forward to from Park Life? Our next project is with the artist Chris Ballantyne. We are super happy to be working with him as he is one of our favorites. Plus he is really nice so that always helps the process. We are just in the beginning stages, but look for the book to be released in late summer, early fall. “It was during the time when Ja- mie and I were getting the book together that the idea of Park Life first took shape. Since then we have published four titles under the im- print Paper Museum Press.” -Derek Song 30 Collectors Corner The San Francisco Arts Quarterly is please to present our Collectors Corner which will continue in future issues. In this section we aim to show the world of collecting and the individuals who fill their lives with art. The Collectors Corner will encompass a wide range of art enthusi- asts, artists, gallerists, and historians who discuss their collections and the trill and importance of collecting art.

My parents were history teachers, and although they didn’t go to museums themselves, When I start hearing the same names over and over again from people involved in all aspects encouraged me to take an art history class while studying chemistry at college.

Art collecting is really much more than acquiring things, it’s really about developing a rich and dynamic relationship to culture—from being involved in an artist’s practice and supporting “Art collecting is really much more their work, to building and supporting a local art community, connecting gallerists, artists, curators and museums, encouraging a whole, and bringing art to the public.

Although Recology focuses on educating the public about recycling and composting, the source of excessive waste produced is a direct result of a consumer based society.

Ferris Plock Can you give a brief description about yourself and your art work? I am an artist living and working in San Francisco. I have been painting for about 10 years. I collaborate often with my wife, Kelly Tunstall, on all sorts of different projects. What initially got you interested in the residency program at the dump? I had been curious about the residency program for a long time before I had applied for it. A few of my friends had completed the residency at the dump and had really enjoyed it. Also, free paint? Free wood and canvas? I have found some very expensive paints and other materials while working at Recology (the dump). What were some of the challenges you faced when you first started creating work at the dump? Umm... I collect my art materials in a room with two or three gigantic bulldozers cruising around and picking up equally gigantic piles of discarded materials... So there’s that as a challenge. There are people blindly throwing full window panes out the back of their trucks, rusty nails, and a million other things to look out for while you are collecting materials for your art show... You definitely have to be on your toes. The first time I walked into Recology’s public disposal facility I had a hard time concentrating on what things I wanted to collect. There is one of everything in that space. There are way too many things for the brain to register and process when there are items stacked from floor to ceiling. No real challenges though... I mean... It is always a challenge for me to work in a new space, with new people. Its also a roll of the dice with some of the materials... some of the stuff I have picked up has been taken to the dump for a good reason... Has working with found materials always been apart of your process? If not, how would you say the access to the materials has influenced your process? It was a huge part of my process when I first moved to the city. Western Addition used to be a gold mine for free materials (people dumping their extra crap out on the street). I still like the idea of being able to pick up something that somebody else thought was trash and convert it into art. Do you think you will continue to use discarded/found materials in the future? Heck yes... That is one of the best parts of doing this residency! I get to come back and grab materials for other shows for the rest of my life! What are some of the most interesting things you’ve seen discarded? It’s more about the amount of stuff... A huge truck emptied its entire load the other day and it ended up being all food that was one day over its expiration date. Thank God there are no hungry people out there who might want the food... I mean piles upon piles of cheese, bread, pies, cakes, etc... It was insane. So much needless waste. Any last words or thank you’s? I want everybody I know to apply to this program. It is incredible that San Francisco has a paid residency program and it needs more awesome artists and more exposure. Get well soon Micah (you faker). Ferris Plock and Suzanne Husky at the Recology studios, 2010 Suzanne Husky, 2010 -Deborah Munk Ferris Plock, 2010 Suzanne Husky, 2010 Suzanne Husky Can you give a brief description about yourself and your art work? As an artist, I am concerned with people’s intimate relations with plants, animals, and the earth, and how we mingle together in political ways. The exploitation of natural resources, landscape use, and globalization are at the core of my multimedia practice, whether I am working in sculpture, installation, documentary photography, performance, or film. In recent projects, the idealism of historical and contemporary “back to the land” movements and of solitary acts of environmental consciousness have been my main area of focus. The wood piece you saw are Sleeper Cells which are small architectures one might sleep in. My practice has been deeply informed by both my childhood and the eleven years in which I have lived in the Bay Area. My mother was an active participant in the May 1968 strikes. The socialist ideologies of the Mitterrand years and the rural environment in which I grew up molded my upbringing and became important components of my work. What initially got you interested in the residency program at the dump? The residency program at the dump provides time, space, endless materials, a stipend, support, media outreach. Every few days we get to expose our work to children and other folks. What were some of the challenges you faced when you first started creating work at the dump? I knew that when the residency was going to start, I wanted to be in a production mode and I was therefore ready for action. I had made numerous construction drawings and shape drafts, none of which I used but that informed the final shapes I’m working on. Has working with found materials always been a part of your process? If not, how would you say the access to the materials has influenced your process? I have always worked with found and used materials when I sculpt. It was a decision I made during my first year of college after my first and last resin sculpture. Do you think you will continue to use discarded/found materials in the future? Yes. What are some of the most interesting things you’ve seen discarded? Furs of wild animal, meat still wrapped in the plastic containers, leather bags. Interesting no, repulsing yes. If you look at the movie “Earthlings” which I did just when I started the residency, you will be reminded of the fur farm, meat and leather industry. Then, you can grasp what was the lives of those animals. Captivity, mild insanity, violent death, shelf life, closet to fridge life, dump. When the meat is still wrapped, then that death really is useless. That is the worst. Along those lines are the few tons of wood that accompany them each day. 40 Ferris Plock, 2010 the SF Sunset Report part one photos / interviews Alberto Cuadros 41 with Jeff DenBroeder, John McCambridge Luke Bartels, Barry McGee, Kyle Field, Bad Vibe Bob, Alex Kopps, and Jeff Canham Jeff DenBroeder Barry McGee artist So Jeff, how long have you lived in San Francisco? So you surf at Ocean Beach a lot, or at least when the waves are good About 21 years. for it. Why do you think you choose not to live by the beach instead of somewhere else in San Francisco? Have you always lived in this neighborhood (mission/ potrero)? Oh, I don’t like it down by the beach. For the most part. I moved 6 blocks, from here to 26th, that was 1989. What about it don’t you like? Did you surf back then? It’s foggy, there’s a big Asian population. I did surf, yes, but I never lived by Ocean Beach, I’ve always driven to the beach. You don’t like Asians? You surf Ocean Beach a lot. Why do you think you never want to live over I don’t like Asians, well it’s not that I don’t like Asians, but I don’t like that many Asians, you there? know? The Sunset is horrible. Have you ever lived down there? What aspects do you think are the worst? I lived at 44th and Lawton for like six months, it drove me crazy, I hated it. There’s just no culture. What year? What about the pockets of families and stuff? It was like ’80...no it was like ‘93, yeah 44th and Lawton. It’s good if you’re raising a family, it’s really nice if you have a really good heating system, and a dehumidifier, and you’re raising a family, then it’s really nice. Did you think it would be cool because it was by the beach and still in San Francisco and you could surf? Sounds good. So you were saying that Sloat St. had kind of a redneck No, because most of the time you can’t really surf there, it’s not really... vibe? So I moved here, and I surfed, and I had moved up from Santa Cruz where I went to school, What was the vibe there in the early 90s? JDB said it was grumpy. and I would drive out to Ocean Beach from the Mission. Wise (surf shop) was out there on Yeah, there were some really great boogie boarders, I remember that they were super good, Vicente at the time, and it felt like there was nobody who surfed out there, it didn’t have the do you know Joe “the post man”? community feel, like how there is now, where you see people on the street. Maybe, what does he look like? What were the surfers like? He’s an old Asian boogie boarder that lives out on Lawton, he’s Ellie’s dad, I’m sure he could Well, I would pull into the Sloat parking lot, and it would be mostly working class guys in big tell you a lot. trucks, kind of just angry redneck dudes, with those Oakley blades, Ugg boots, in their big trucks, they’d change into their wetsuits, light up a cigarette while walking down to the water, and flick it as they started to paddle out. I watched a guy do it, it’s kind of a stereotype too, but I saw it. Bad Vibe Bob These are guys who lived in the Sunset? I think so, but there really wasn’t much there, a few weird bars. I guess if you live out there, What do you think of Orion’s art show at Mollusk? there’s people who know each other, but they were so grumpy and angry, it was a really It’s funny, I like the giant Sex Wax sculpture. grumpy, angry time. What do you think about the George Greenough/David Hockney painting? Oh is that what it is? David Hockney? John McCambridge Yeah. owner of Mollusk, artist, designer That’s what I first thought, does he comb his hair like that? Who? Orion? So you mentioned an early surf-related show that happened around the Yeah. time of the Yerba Buena show that happened at 111 Minna. You wanted to be in it, and a lot of artists that are now a part of the artists associated I don’t know, Barry told me I should interview Joe “the post man” do you with Mollusk were in it too, what was it called? know him? I forget what it was even called… He introduced me to my wife, she was living in the same building and Joe knocked on her door and told her that I wanted to to ask her out, she said yes so I did. He lived in the same Kyle Field: (interrupting) What show at 111 Minna?? building there with his kids. I guess it was a show set up by some guy who burned a lot of people. Did he grow up in the Sunset? I think he might have. Was it all surf related? It was all surf, it was a pretty good show, there were a bunch of people that came up from And he was a boogie boarder? southern California, I think it may have been around 2003, and it was pretty good, before it He was one of the early boogie boarders, plus there’s another guy, he shops at other avenues, was stale. he’s an older guy, Gene is his name. 42 Did you guys all surf together? Yeah sure, I mean there’s those sneaky sunny days when it clears up for, There was no one else to hang out with. kind of like today, a little bit. This one snuck up on us for sure. What years? 1988 or ‘87, it was the late 80s, we were already established by the time of the ‘89 This one is sneaky. So you’ve lived in other parts of San Francisco earthquake. before… YES When did you move into the neighborhood? ‘84. Do you prefer other parts of the city, to live? YES, YES (winks). I think everyone should, I think that’s the best way to live. How did you guys start hanging out? We all lived on Lawton St., we were the odd balls. Everyone surfed at VFW’s or Noriega, no Just based on weather or… one surfed in between Noriega St. and Lincoln, it was no mans land. YES When did you meet Barry? There is kind of a beach zone vibe, but that seems to be restricted to just Probably in ‘83, he had just started college, he was hanging out with my brother, they were the last couple of blocks of Sunset. scooter rats, Manny Miranda, Barry, and my brother Chris were into Vespa scooters. I had just RIGHT moved to SF, Barry and Manny came in a van to pick up my brother to go surf and they saw all my boards and we just all started surfing for the next five or more years, all the time. Talking about 50 by 20 blocks that make up the Sunset District, what percentage of that makes up the “Outer Sunset neighborhood” that You did some art stuff too though right? You curated some art shows, is that people refer to when calling it a destination? something you do, or was it just a few you did? How did that happen? I think the last three blocks. I was working at Yerba Buena when it first opened, one of the first shows I worked on was Barry’s. Installing. I worked on a buncha shows there, and in ‘99, 2000, it was a no-brainer, surf I got to get cash back real quick. show, there were a couple before that though, arts commission gallery, at Farleys we did a Me too, banana town. little show. Cash back banana. So you and a group of people would organize shows or was it just you? Seven elevens. Mostly me, a lot of it was handed off to me from Barry, I just kind of ended up being the organizer, I happened into it. I was already working at Yerba Buena, so I had an in to set up the surf show. Luke Bartels carpenter, designer Who was in the show? Alex Kopps artist Russell Crotty, Margarette Kilgallen, Kevin Ancell, Liz Pepin, a lot of early guys, Jim Ganzer, Ned Evans etc. Ancell connected me with a lot of the southern California guys that were not So you guys both surf and spend just about the same amount of time at getting a lot of exposure at the time. Ocean Beach except Luke lives there and Alex, you don’t. I live there because my house is there. Do you think these initial connections and shows created a context for other shows that would happen later in the decade regarding surfing and So would you rather live somewhere else? art, and even create a context for Mollusk to exist? No, no I like it there a lot, I work and live in the sunset, I met my wife in the neighborhood, It was kind of all a branch of these initial shows, Craig Stecyk had a few similar shows, but and for some reason she wanted to stay there as well so… there had never been a huge epic, Laguna Museum was working really hard around the same time to come up with a show like this, but I trumped them by about three months and they Do you think it’s weird that you like it out there but a majority of people were pissed off. We toured the surf show down to a gallery in Santa Monica in 2001 and really don’t- Laguna Art Museum came out with their big surf epic in 2002. We were going to tour this show throughout Europe but a lot of the artists ended up showing art in the Laguna Art Alex Kopps: YES, I think it’s WEIRD. Museum shows because they thuoght I had dropped the whole thing when I moved to Hawaii. Then 9/11 happened and the whole thing was over, they didn’t want hula dancers holding Luke Bartels: A lot of people do like the sunset too, there’s two types of people in this guns in europe, could you imagine? Anyway, Laguna ended up touring the show around using world… no there’s three: people who like the sunset, people who don’t, and people who don’t a similar template to my original, however they made it very surfed out and goofy, I always care either way wanted to leave the surf shit out, like board art, and keep it just art. Not a literal thing. They fucked up the whole idea about art. (both laughing). It’s kind of a thing now, huh? The surfer art thing. Someone was telling me earlier that they felt that there was a lack of Yeah it’s all over the place now, the “Bohemian artist surfer or writer.” I’ve read a bunch of culture in the Sunset. Do you feel that? articles about that shit. I think there’s a strong sense of community, which in many ways is a culture. I think people (in the Sunset) generally cross town to get a larger variety of what might be deemed culture, but It’s a marketable lifestyle thing for sure, maybe as a reaction to the “jock” I think there’s a unique sense of community that you only get in a few neighborhoods around element of surfing this new genre has become popular. the city, and the Sunset is one of those, especially the Outer Sunset. You go out on the street That’s the other ugly side of surfing, “jocks.” Do you think surfing is inherently jock like? and see people you know, you don’t have to pick a destination to find that community, that to me counts as culture. It’s an active thing. Well I guess it’s kind of cool to not surf, like in southern California where there’s a lot of surf There’s kind of a growing group of people who make art or have a craft- jocks, so maybe the anti-surfer/ surfer has been created as a result of that. Yeah, but I think that’s always been there. I think there’s certainly an influx of the young entrepreneurial spirit there, in the arts, but I think artists have always been attracted to that stretch near the water, the funk houses, etc. Kyle Field Similar to Venice Beach in the late 50s? Something like that, and the “good” weather in the sunset kept it at bay, but I think there’s musician, artist always been garages filled with artists doing funky stuff out there in the sunset. It’s crazy in the Sunset when its…sunny- YES On the weekends, I think for some people it’s the only view they get of the neighborhood, when it’s sunny and nice to be out doors. YES, I think they should try coming here on a monday morning when the fog comes back. What percentage of the days are sunny do you think? Maybe like 25%, that may be generous too, do you think that’s accurate? 43 44 Jeff Hamada BOOOOOOOM(dot)com Jeff Hamada - Founder Patrick Kyle Jerome Meynen Wang Shugang Winnie Truong Sonja Vordermaier Olaf Bruening James Nizam Tobias Putrih Dan Allegretto Amanda Nedham Allison Diaz Geoffrey Cottenceau Fumi Mini Nakamura Damien Correll Haung Qingjun & Maonjie 45 BOOOOOOOM(dot)com Do people ever complain that they forget how many “o’s” are in whining about the things I don’t. That being said, some of my favorite artists are street artists: Booooooom(dot)com? BLU, JR, Os Gemeos. I feel like they are focused on another type of street art altogether. I do Yes, and I take pride in the fact that my URL choice is ruining lives. For the record, there are post about that kind of work every now and then. Perhaps the main reason street art is not seven o’s. I’ve also incorporated Booooooom as an actual company and I can tell it especially a focus of Booooooom is because Wooster Collective does it best. annoys the people at the bank when they have to read handwritten checks. I actually thought of the logo for the site first, so the fact that there are seven o’s is only because that’s how I hear you have 4,000 submission emails in your inbox. When you aren’t many it takes to make it a 3x3 square. It also seemed like a name that was stupid enough to working on the site do you still have time for your own art practice? make people click on it out of curiosity. I haven’t had a lot of time for any work outside of Booooooom lately, but my goal for this upcoming year is to spend a lot more of my time on my own work. I am really interested in kid’s books and kid-friendly things and will be working on a couple things that won’t When did you start the website and what were your first intentions with necessarily be for kids but will be things for people of any age to enjoy. I’ve been especially it? I started Booooooom three years ago, in 2008. It wasn’t called Booooooom initially; it was inspired by Yo Gabba Gabba and Anorak Magazine. just a free wordpress blog. At the time, I didn’t think it would be anything more than a place to share things with my friends. I guess it still is, but I wasn’t trying to turn it into the full-time job that it is now. The site gained a small following mostly through word-of-mouth and about What younger art movement do you find the most inspiring? six months into it I started to take it a little more seriously. Early on I was really inspired The Flickr Pool movement. I’m going to pretend that this is a movement, but I really do see by Miranda July’s “Learning to Love You More” project and started introducing collaborative a whole generation of photographers gaining notoriety at an exponential rate largely due to projects on the site. I realized that I actually enjoyed running projects more than collecting exposure from groups on Flickr. and posting images. I also noticed there weren’t too many blogs really making an effort to find other ways of interacting with their audiences. I wanted to use Booooooom to form real I hear so many great things about the arts up in Vancouver. Can you talk relationships with people. a little about what’s going on up there? I think Vancouver is still a really tough city to live in if you’re trying to live off of your art. People haven’t been walking into art openings and buying art maybe the way they do in San Booooooom is now one of the most (if not the most) viewed art related website around and you have managed to keep it so open and diverse, Francisco (I’m not sure how it is for you), but things are changing. Friends of mine started The showing work from highly conceptual museum quality large scale Cheaper Show, an event that has become the largest single-night cultural event in Western installations to young photographers from impoverished countries to Canada. Artwork is priced at $200 and people line up around a whole city block to get in contemporary Vancouver based art. Do you find it hard to stay away and buy work from local and international contemporary artists. When the doors open there from specific trends/ styles as most art websites do? is an art-buying frenzy unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. This year was the 9th Cheaper I’m primarily thinking about my audience as opposed to what is and isn’t trendy. I went to Show and it was so successful that the team is headed to Toronto to host an even bigger one art school but I felt like an outsider there and I wanted to make Booooooom really inclusive. there next year. I hope that it is as engaging for those people who went to art school as it is for those who didn’t. I want Booooooom to be an encouragement machine gun; I want to pump people full of positive vibes. If I post your work I want you to be encouraged by it and be inspired to Please talk about Canada’s government-based art programs and how, go out and make more. A few magazine articles have labeled me a “taste-maker” and I don’t unlike the US, there is money for artists…not to mention the free health really like that pressure. I’m not trying to impress anyone with my ability to discover new care and other state run benefits for Canadian citizens. artists. Any teenager with a computer could do what I’m doing, and many are! I also don’t Well the BC government is actually doing considerable cuts to the arts here, and so we aren’t want to paint myself into a corner where I have to be the first art blog to post some really on par with all the other provinces in Canada, so it’s not entirely an artist’s paradise. There are big news story. I like that I can post artwork from a decade ago on Booooooom and it’s ok. some amazing things though, The National Film Board of Canada for one. There is government If I didn’t have that freedom I think working on the site would become a chore. The minute money there to help Canadians produce work, and not just produce the work but also help Booooooom isn’t fun for me anymore I will end it or turn it into something else. So while promote it and things like that. I think that’s pretty unheard of in other countries. I’m not concerned with hyped up artists or trends, I do think there are things that will fit on the site and things that won’t. I am still the only one hand-picking the content but I feel like it’s largely informed by the people who have been reading the site for the past couple years. How do you want to see Booooooom grow in the next few years? Reading their daily comments and interacting with them on the various projects, I feel like I In February I will be working on a project in Hawaii and I’d love to travel around and host really know the readers (many of whom I consider friends now) and know what kind of things projects all over the world. Eventually I’d love to have a physical space for Booooooom here will excite them. in Vancouver where I could host events and house on-going creative projects. I’d love to bring speakers into Vancouver and have a conference similar to TED but specific to the creative community. There would be a twist to it but I don’t want to reveal the whole idea at this point. It’s really nice to see that you aren’t including any “street and stencil I’ve got a lot planned for 2011; I want to get in over my head and be anxious about things. I art.” Do you feel this style has become a self serving hype based off need to make sure I’m still doing things I’ve never done before. If I don’t fail at least a few times principles that aren’t even included in the work anymore? next year it will mean I didn’t try hard enough. I have absolutely no interest in a specific type of street art. I don’t even know what to call it… territorial street art? I’m not inspired by someone’s name spray painted really big on a wall or the same image wheat pasted in a bunch of different cities. I was actually kind of disgusted by the amount of BNE stickers I saw around Tokyo (if you’ve been there you know what I’m -A.McClintock talking about). I just found it annoying. But that’s just me; I’ve just never been connected to the graffiti/stencil scene. I didn’t run around throwing up tags or sneak into train yards as a kid. I would feel ignorant making some sort of blanket statement about street art when I am just a guy with a blog, so I just choose to spend my time celebrating the things I like instead of 46 FEB.2011 Calendar http://secretfeature.com 47 FEB.2011 Calendar http://secretfeature.com 48 H.

A celebration of our anxieties pertaining to the body, identity, and nature: "In the Kingdom of Charisma" is a multimedia exhibit created during a three week long residency at Ever Gold Gallery. By growing crystals and organisms alongside intricate media collages, the resulting installation, video, images and sculptures of Chris Ritson embody the nuances of how we construct an individual identity, distinct from the vast cosmol- ogy that animates our lives. 441 OíFarrell Street San Franicsco, CA 94103 www.evergoldgallery.com [email protected] hours: wed-sat 1-6pm MUSICARTDRINKS Dissolving distinctions between art and everyday life.
