2013 Powderhorn Art Fair 3

Award Winners

2012

3rd Place

Karen Bell, Clay

My sculptures are entirely studies of the natural world. Small creatures that live in the leaf litter, woods, deserts, lakes and rivers all around us. I focus on reptiles, amphibians,bats, insects and the occasional armadillo-sometimes in their habitat-sometimes alone. A few sculptures tell stories such as the metamorphosis or their habitat.

Award Winners
The work is entirely hand built by myself from stoneware clay. I use both high fire reduction glazes and low fire glazes putting all pieces through two glaze firings to give more realistic details, colors and textures on my sculptures.

2012

ach year four top awards (Best Of, Second Place, Third Place, Merit) and invitational awards are given to Main Exhibitors and one top award to the Community Showcase. All artists are eligible for The Spirit of Powderhorn award. A panel of three judges, of varying art backgrounds (one of whom is a Powderhorn Park Neighborhood resident), is chosen by the Art Fair Committee to jury the Main Exhibitors and select award winners. One judge is chosen by the Community Showcase Committee to select the Spirit of Powderhorn award winner (the artist whose work best represents the unique qualities found in the Powderhorn Park Neighborhood), and Best of for the Community Showcase.

2012 Best of Show

Julie Crabtree-Pfannes, Fiber

I begin with a blank canvas which I hand paint to give a base for my work. Using a basic sewing machine and only a straight or zig zag stitch, I use a free motion technique which is like drawing with a needle and thread. Adding much more depth with hand stitching using a variety of threads and fabrics. Some are hand dyed for custom colors, building up layer upon layer to create depth to the art. Applications could include handmade paper, distressed fabrics or whatever I can make to create the work. I am inspired by the ever-changing landscapes throughout the seasons to capture the texture into either realism or some abstract piece based on the color and texture of nature. Julie Crabtree studied textiles, fashion, art and embroidery at Mansfield College of Arts, Nottinghamshire, England. After completing a four-year degree course she taught at the College before emigrating to Canada, and now calls Northern Wisconsin home.

Merit Award

Steve Nowatzki, Printmaking

My work is an attempt at stripping away the veneer of commercialized packaging that disguises the stresses put upon the planetary environment. In my images Ive attempted to cerebrally challenge the viewer and also educate them with different viewpoints on how they make their lifestyle choices. I use a blend of new studio practices with the original printmaking techniques to minimize the resources used in my art. I use stone lithographs, zinc etchings, monoprints and drawingsmany times in concert with one another to achieve the end result of my concepts. My prints are all hand printed, by me, on archival paper. My zinc plates are ground down and reused after completing the edition run; the lithographs are drawn and printed on reusable stones. I even recycle old cotton clothes into my hand made paper.

2nd Place

Jeff Homar, Mixed Media

My concept of the art box was developed during a watercolor course at UW-Milwaukee in 1967. By extending the space within the box, the paper can be manipulated into an active surface, creating a strong spatial effect. The glass also becomes an active element and has to be considered constantly as the images and colors float over and interact with the papers images and the colors inside. This manipulation of the actual space and the implied sense of space, along with the interplay of imagery between paper and glass, create unlimited possibilities for inventing new and exciting visual statements

Spirit Of Powderhorn Devon Driscoll, Jewelry

Creating jewelry that sparks interest and curiosity is what motivates Devon. All sorts of media inspire her but she really enjoys analyzing her everyday environments, as the small thins can ignite grand ideas. Devons jewelry teeters on aggressive with a smooth transition into a charismatic piece of art. A deep passion of texture and asymmetry of spatial concepts are present in her designs. Devons jewelry forms an experience and engages not only the wearer but also the passerby. It is, as we know the one-minute friends at the coffee shop, brushing past while shopping or standing in line at the grocery store whose compliments make our day.

Maggie Dobbin, Flag Artist (1954-2013)

2012
invitational award winners

By Andrew Phelan

aggie grew up being the eyes for her two older blind sisters, and so she developed a keen visual sense from an early age. Where her family excelled in musical expression, Maggies creative focus has always been in colors and movement, first as a clothes designer but finally, and joyfully, as a flag artist.

Top left: Maggie Dobbin (right) with husband Andrew Phelan. Top right: This years Powderhorn Art Fair logo and program cover is based on these Full Monty Rainbow House Flags by Maggie Dobbin.

She received her Associate Degree from Minneapolis Community College in Apparel Arts and worked in a variety of sewing settings, from tailoring to large inflatables to commercial banners. As a dedicated recycler, she would collect the leftover banner fabric from commercial runs, with the idea of using these someday as she had earlier with leftover clothing fabrics. Seeing a simple yard flag in a catalogue inspired her to make her first flags, ones with considerably more colors and zing. A child of the sixties, she had the heart of the artist and a love for festivals. She made her first flags to decorate the site for the annual Rites of Spring Festival in Mountain View AR, her spiritual home. Her first art fair was at the Powderhorn Art Fair in the late 1990s, just a mile or two from her Seward home. The community was so supportive of her flags and her infectious joy that she decided to do her art fulltime. Her flags evolved into kinetic stained glass, capturing the moods of the sun and wind in

ever-playful ways. Her cutting and sewing techniques were flawless and her intuitive sense of geometries amazing. She became a fixture at the Minnesota Renaissance Fair, as well as art fairs around Minnesota. But the Powderhorn Art Fair and community were always her home base, and her spot at the north part of the Lake a highly visible landmark. She was privileged and touched to be awarded the Spirit of Powderhorn recognition a few years ago. She was joyful dancer, an avid reader, an enthusiastic card player, a creative gardener, a dog whisperer, a loyal friend, and cherished wife. We will all miss her, her flags, her spirit, and her laugh.

SUN LION

Powderhorn Art Fair Focuses on Zero Waste

This years Powderhorn Art Fair is starting a new waste management system focusing on zero waste. There will be three strategically-placed waste stations positioned throughout the event. Each waste station includes a 10 x 10 tent, green flag marker, waste stations banners, and three types of waste receptacles (organic waste, recyclable waste and trash waste). The three stations will be the only locations to discard waste for the two-day event allowing trash to be funneled to these identifiable waste stations. All park single trash and recycle waste cans/barrels will be removed from the park during the event. Youth volunteers will be at each waste station assisting and educating art fair goers about the proper way to dispose of their waste. The Powderhorn Teen Teamworks Youth Crew will be assisting in collecting garbage that ends up on the park grounds and removing full trash receptacles from each waste station. Adam Lares, Powderhorn Park Recreation Leader

Paul Robinson

oon after the Community Showcase became a part of the art fair in 2001, many of us talked about building a tall, colorful, inviting structure to herald the Showcase area. In 2012, park director Adam Lares said, I know who can do that.

Adam soon introduced me to Paul Robinson: artist, puppet fabricator, and all-around great guy to work with. Paul, Adam, and I brainstormed. Id like to see something big, colorful, and weatherproof that moves in the wind and welcomes people, I said. How about a big sun? said Paul. It can rotate on a pole. Adam and I said, Perfect! On the day before the fair opened, Adam and Paul affixed the big red and yellow sculpture atop a post already used for signage in the picnic area. This year, the suns red fabric rays will catch wind, rotate, and welcome fair guests once again. Look for Paul Robinsons wonderful creation at the Community Showcase on the south side of the park building. Shari Albers

This SUN LION is a gift to this vibrant artistic community we call home! We all live in the Heart of the Beast, our city, our neighborhood, our park, OUR world! Shine in all of your glory! Paul Robinson
The SUN LION heralds the Community Showcase area of the art fair. Created by Paul Robinson in 2012. Paul Robinson is currently the Company Manager of In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre and the May Day Parade and Festival Director. Powderhorn Art Fair thanks Paul Robinson for his beautiful art that will be seen by many and cherished for years to come.

One year ago, Pillsbury House + Theatre, Upstream Arts, Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association, and Minneapolis College of Art and Design Professor Natasha Pestich with support from the Ward 8 Council Office of Elizabeth Glidden came together with the national organization Artplace to commission artists who live and work in the Powderhorn, Central, Bancroft, and Bryant neighborhoods to put 20 art projects on 32nd to 42nd Street along Chicago Avenue. Heres just a small taste of what has happened so far: More than 3000 people have experienced 204 different individual pieces of art in 137 locations, including 46 different local businesses. Photographer Wing Young Huie introduced himself to more than 200 people in the neighborhood then introduced them to each other and photographed people who had not previously known each other together. Those photos are displayed in stores up and down the street. Storytellers Dylan Fresco and Michelle Barnes interviewed almost 100 people in the neighborhood then led 12 tours of 12-15 people on walks along the 10 blocks, inside and out, where they shared those stories as performance. Visual artist and fabricator Michael Hoyt created an outdoor seating area/gathering place near the bus stop on 35th and Chicago where peoples wishes for the community are on display. Collage Artist Patricia Anderson gathered the stories of seniors in the neighborhood then worked with youth to create collage art based on their stories. Ninety-four percent (94%) of participants surveyed said they felt more connected to the neighborhood. I had a feeling that were all in this together, they said. Look around you. The communities surrounding the park youre standing in are blessed with as much diversity and creativity as any other area in the Twin Cities. People with
