Public Art Edina Report
July 28, 2016
Public Art Edina did not meet in July.
The third utility box wrap will occur in August at the intersection of Industrial and Metro
Boulevards. Marnie Teppen is the artist of the graphic design entitled “EdinaBot 3000!”- a
graphic design of a robot.
Voting is open through Sept. 30th for your favorite entry in the 2016 annual rotating exhibit.
Cast ONE vote via the Edina to Go mobile phone app or with a paper ballot available at the
Edina Art Center, Senior Center or City Hall Parks & Recreation Department.
The Edina Crime Prevention Fund (ECPF) is supporting the K-9 Sculpture efforts which began
shortly after Public Art Edina was formed as an official group over 11 years ago. A committee is
being formed and in addition to the $5,000 donated to Public Art in 2015 by the Edina
Federated Women’s Club, a personal donation has been made by Pacy Erck, a retired teacher,
dog lover and patron of the arts as well as $1,000 from the ECPF. It is estimated that the
sculpture costs (bronze foundry work) will be about $11,000. There will also be additional costs
for the stone base and bronze plaques. The artist, Michelle Recke, is donating her artistic
services as the sculpture artist who was approved both by the committee and by the ECPF. Work
has begun on the sculpture and is expected to be complete and installed on the hill to the right
of the Police Department at City under a large tree in the spring pending approval of the City
Council.
