9th Streets, 76102 (Council District 9) i. Artists Sedrick and Letitia Huckaby

Deborah Peoples received permission from the City of Fort Worth to paint a mural on Main Street in response to current events and asked Sedrick and Letitia Huckaby to design it. Artists from across the DFW metroplex volunteered to help sketch the outline and paint the mural, which took two (2) days. They estimated that several hundred people added their names to the mural. Letitia said that the community has supported and taken ownership of the piece and added that it was nice to see people from all walks of life enjoy the mural and share why it was important to them. Sedrick added that they are now getting calls from other cities who are interested in creating similar public art projects.

Commissioner Lee asked if there were any unexpected issues with this project, and Letitia responded that there were not any issues with the City of Fort Worth. However, there was one incident in which someone defaced the mural, but it was quickly removed. She added that ensuring social distancing and wearing of masks was a challenge.

Peters shared that the City of Fort Worth considers this a pilot project and is drafting guidelines for future projects of this nature.

Art Commissioners thanked the artists for their work and expressed that this mural did a good job of bringing the community together in a family-friendly event.

VII. Discussion Item

a. Diversity Assessment of Fort Worth Public Art Projects – Martha Peters Peters gave an overview of commissioned public art pieces in the Fort Worth Public Art (FWPA) Collection by African American, Latino, and Asian artists, as well as artworks that depict diverse cultural themes. She also shared that several public artworks in progress depict Civil Rights and other cultural themes and many are by artists of color.

Peters stated that a similar inventory is being made of the works in the Legacy Collection and will be shared at a later date. Public art collection manager Jenny Conn stated that the FWPA Collection has a total of 136 artworks with 74 of those commissioned.

Peters stated that since public art funding is derived from Bond Programs, the location of public art projects are limited to those where the City is making capital infrastructure improvements within those programs, and that community stakeholders guide the approach to each project.

Commissioner Lee noted that having this collection assessment is a good tool to show City Council where improvements of art diversity could be made. He also suggested adding graphic depictions of the statistics, as well as demographic information to the assessment.

b. Discussion of Questions Posed by Vice Chairman Estrus Tucker during the June 8, 2020,

Art Commission Meeting: i. What artwork(s) might the City of Fort Worth commission that would contribute to

the powerful, diverse movement for racial equity in our city, our nation, and our world?

Commissioner Pena noted that most pieces in the collection represent a specific community or location. Pena asked if there was a place in the City that could include all cultures into one space and suggested sponsoring a mural on a yearly basis.

Commissioner Casler Price suggested creating more temporary public art pieces that bring people together. She added that these projects need to be more immediate and can provide opportunities for local young artists.

Peters noted that the funding source for public art projects comes from Bond packages and there is an expectation that those pieces are permanent. A challenge for the public art program is finding funding sources that support temporary public art projects, although the Fort Worth Public Art Master Plan Update of 2017 encourages the program to undertake temporary projects.

Commissioner Tucker suggested that the program consider a permanent public art piece that supports temporary projects. Tucker added that art should allow people in engage with one another, adding art is a high privilege in our cities and to commission art that is accessible is our opportunity.

Art Commissioners agreed that there is a need for funding temporary public art and that this is an opportunity to reach out to the City to demonstrate that temporary art can make a positive impact on our community.

ii. How might public art be a catalyst for good in the midst of the brazen disparities

and brutal inequities of systemic racism?

Commissioner Lee suggested that we find a way to have an open and honest conversation about parts of our city’s history that is less than perfect.

iii. What can we do as an Art Commission to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion

at this moment?

Commissioner Talambas supported previous comments and added that the structural systems that make citywide decisions need to include more diversity, including those who have not previously participated. He added that communities feel disconnected from art because they have not been invited to participate in the public art process. He suggested that staff take a more active role in the formation of Project Core Teams to promote diversity.

The Draft Fiscal Year 2021 Public Art Annual Work Plan, endorsed by the Fort Worth Art Commission on July 13, 2020, is attached. The draft plan includes proposed new public art projects and initiatives in red font.

PROJECT NAME: FIRE STATION #45

Approval of Artist Joe Barrington’s Final Design for the Fire Station #45 Public Art PRESENTATION: Project, Located at the Intersection of Quail Grove Drive and Harmon Road, 76177

(District 7)

FINAL DESIGN PREVIEW

Joe Barrington has designed a new sculpture for Fire Station #45 titled, Cowtown Dalmatian. The concept is a larger‐

than‐life longhorn constructed of stainless steel with bronze “spots”. Barrington was inspired by the Project Core Team’s

interest in artwork that would reflect the area’s rustic aesthetic and echo its western heritage. After participating in a

micro‐residency with the Fort Worth Fire Department, he was further inspired by the firefighters’ dedication to all facets

of their job. Referencing the department’s commitment to service, the longhorn is currently designed to stand atop a

native limestone rock, facing the City of Fort Worth, serving as a guardian to its citizens.

The artist will share further details with a full Final Design presentation at the Fort Worth Art Commission meeting on

Monday, August 10, 2020.
