Possible Relocation of "Invocation" by Pepe Ozan to Palega Park

In 2016, the San Francisco Arts Commission removed Zephyros, an outdoor kinetic sculpture by REBAR Art and Design Group from Palega Recreation Center due to mechanical failure. After thorough analysis it was determined that the artwork could not be safely returned to park. As a replacement for the damaged sculpture, the Arts Commission would like to relocate Invocation, by Pepe Ozan to Palega. Because there is no additional art enrichment funding for a newly commissioned artwork for Palega this relocation would ensure outdoor artwork for the park.

 

Pepe Ozan的作品「祈禱」可能被遷至Palega公園

2016年,由於機械故障,三藩市藝術委員會將REBAR Art & Design Group的戶外動態雕塑Zephyros從Palega休閒中心移除。經過透徹的分析之後,確定該藝術品無法安全地遷回公園。作為受損雕塑的替代品,藝術委員會希望將Pepe Ozan的作品「祈禱」遷至Palega。由於沒有額外的藝術充實資金能為Palega添加新製作的藝術品,這一搬遷將確保公園獲得一件戶外藝術品。

Invocation

Pepe Ozan

Pepe Ozan (1939-2013) was a San Francisco artist and award-winning documentary filmmaker known for his large-scale sculptures and participatory performances created for Burning Man. He was one of the first residents of Project Artaud, a pioneering artists’ collective in the Mission District, and his work has exhibited at the San Jose Museum of Art, in Golden Gate Park, and along the Blue Greenway Trail.

In 2004, the Arts Commission commissioned Pepe to create an artwork for the Cesar Chavez Boulevard bicycle infrastructure project. Invocation depicts a Mesoamerican Eagle Warrior and honors indigenous heritage and cultures. The work is made of painted steel and stands ten feet tall with a wingspan of eight feet. If relocated to Palega Rec Center, the artwork would be reengineered and repainted, and its concrete pedestal recast to its existing design and dimensions. The sculpture would be sited in the same location as the previous artwork.


Pepe Ozan的作品「祈禱」

Pepe Ozan(1939-2013)是一位三藩市藝術家和獲獎的紀錄片製片人,以他為「火人節」創作的大型雕塑和參與表演而聞名。他是Artaud專案(米慎區的一個先鋒藝術家合作社)的首批居民之一,作品曾在聖荷西藝術博物館、金門公園和Blue Greenway Trail展出。

2004年,藝術委員會委託Pepe為Cesar Chavez Boulevard自行車基礎設施專案創作一幅藝術品。「祈禱」刻畫了一位中美洲鷹戰士,尊崇土著遺產和文化。這件作品由彩塗鋼製成,高10英尺,翼展8英尺。如果搬到Palega休閒中心,藝術品將會重新設計和噴漆,並對混凝土基座進行重新澆築,以符合現有設計和尺寸。這座雕塑將安置在與先前藝術品相同的地點。
