Report, Public Art Edina September 22, 2016
Public Art Edina
Report to the
Arts and Culture Commission
September 22, 2016
We congratulate the City Communications Department for their recent national awards
from the City-County Communications & Marketing Association (3CMA) at their annual
awards ceremony in San Antonio, Tex., where they received a first place Savvy Award for
“Public Art Profiles,” a video series highlighting Public Art Edina and the sculpture artists
in our annual rotating exhibit.
Three Trees, a sculpture from the PAE permanent collection, was returned to The Edina
Promenade this week having been removed last year for the Phase IV expansion project.
The sculpture, by Kevin Komadina, was a gift from the artist a few years ago after being
in the annual rotating exhibit. PAE wishes to acknowledge the support of the City Public
Works Department under the leadership of Brian Olson and his crew who not only
poured secure concrete bases for the pieces, but also re-installed the 3-piece sculpture
with aid of a boom truck, a pickup and the artist, a retired physician and Edina resident,
who became a PAE member earlier this year. Helping from Public Works were Brandon
Klatke, Chet Boom, Mark Jungswirth and Sean Klapperick.
PAE has included a letter to the EACC proposing to the City Communications
Department, “embedding an interactive map as a link for all the major points of interest
in the City. This would give our residents and visitors immediate information about the
location of a point of interest - be a sculpture, a park or other points of interest - using a
360 degree camera they would virtually explore the area further peaking their interest.”
See attached letter.
