32ND ANNUAL FINE ART AUCTION

Introduction

You’re nobody ’til somebody loves you. You’re nobody ’til somebody cares. Since the legendary days of Sinatra, Martin, and Davis Jr., Vegas has been a hotbed for talent and spectacle. At tonight’s shindig we channel that spirit in spectacular fashion, bidding boldly on the incredible work from hundreds of local artists and letting it ride in support of access to art for all at Pratt Fine Arts Center. Headlining tonight’s main event is a dazzling group of board, staff, and volunteers who lent their time and creativity to the planning committee. And if this were The Sands Hotel, we’d light up the marquee with the names of The Pratt Pack’s favorite crooners, co-chairs Adam Glant and Walt Riehl. We are humbled by their service and we thank them dearly. Upping the ante is the Klorfine Foundation, raising the stakes for tonight’s Raise the Paddle appeal with a very generous $250,000 match. Help us show our immense gratitude by joining The Pack, giving generously and rising the meet the challenge in full.

Sip a martini with class or do like Frank and tip back your flask. Gamble for a chance to win big and don’t miss the opportunity to double down! Thank you for your support and may Lady Luck be ever on your side.

Cheers,

Bob Swain Steve Galatro BOARD PRESIDENT

32ND ANNUAL FINE ART AUCTION

Introduction

To Our Honorees, Richard and Barbara Wortley Dear Rich and Barbara, People are honored for different reasons. Sometimes it’s for generosity of time and resources, sometimes it’s for service and dedication, sometimes it’s to recognize true leadership and community-building. With you, it’s all of the above. With you, it’s about honoring two incredible people who always show up. You show up with boxes of donated art materials for youth classes and stacks of old newspapers for the glass studios. You’re there when the envelopes need stuffing or fundraising calls need to be made. You are the first ones in the dirt on campus clean-up day and the last ones to leave when setting up for an event. You are always there to support the artists at our events and to lend thoughtful insights to various committees and meetings. And who could forget the time that you conference called in to an important meeting from the back of an elephant, while vacationing a world away (true story!). Perhaps the only quality that rivals your unmatched commitment to showing up is your ability to pair it with a genuine care for the work of the organization, for the well-being of its community, and for the support of artists. We are humbled by your true devotion and we all are lifted up because of it. We are deeply grateful for your service. Please accept our heartfelt thanks for all that you’ve done for us. Sincerely,

All of Us

The Artists and Advocates of Pratt Fine Arts Center

Chihuly’s Soft Cylinder series showcases a technique of drawing on glass using a series of colored glass shards, carefully placed on a hotplate and then gathered onto the molten piece before the final gather of glass from the furnace. This series has continued to gracefully evolve since Chihuly first began it in 1974. Inspired in form by the languid pull of gravity, and in design by the intricate weavings of Navajo blankets; this classic piece, created in 1989, is exemplary in what it represents of Chihuly’s artwork.

PRATT FINE ARTS CENTER

About Pratt Fine Arts Center Pratt Fine Arts Center began in 1976 as a tiny art facility with a big vision to build a community of artists and an educational center providing the tools and the training to support the creation of art. Today, Pratt is making that vision a reality by being… The Place to Make Art! Pratt Fine Arts Center is proud to serve as a lasting tribute to Edwin T. Pratt, a man who devoted his life to improving the quality of life for all people. Mr. Pratt served as Executive Director of the Seattle Urban League from 1961 to 1969. His assassination in that year by unknown assailants was deeply felt by many Seattleites who depended on Pratt’s calm leadership during a period of social upheaval. For 38 years, Pratt has been providing the Northwest community with the opportunity to experience art. Pratt’s classes teach more than 3,500 students and its studios serve more than 500 working artists each year. Its classes, lectures and programs reach more than 20,000 people annually. Affordable studio space with an unparalleled array of equipment provides artists of all ages and abilities with the opportunity to learn, to experiment and to create.

Andrew Horch PEACOCK VASE $

101

The unusual properties of reactive colors in blown glass have been guiding Andrew Horch’s most recent work. Certain colors, when combined, react chemically to create new colors and textures. To make the vessel, reactive colors were layered on top of each other, then the glass was raked to form unique patterns. Halos appear at the boundaries between different colors. These halos give the piece unusual depth and texture. As a glass artist, Andrew has been working exclusively at Pratt Fine Arts Center for the last three years. He is also an electrical engineer, a career that has made him attentive to qualities of precision and flow.

In her photographs, Lily aims to create unique worlds using traditional darkroom methods. Through the use of double negatives and negative manipulations (such as light leaks and hot glue), she tries to tell a story in her photos while also attempting to create images that are uniquely a product of the darkroom, which results in images that are impossible to recreate digitally. While she appreciates the benefits of the digital age, she laments the film apocalypse. The physical and timeconsuming nature of darkroom printing plays a large role in her work. She prefers to photograph people, and her images maintain a very human presence even if no person is physically present within the frame.

As an enameler, she uses properties of the glass: the preciousness, the texture, and the color. Her current work is primarily bowls and ceremonial vessels because she is interested in the social implications and uses of these forms. Subtle differences in shape affect the meaning of the piece dramatically; an open form is generous and a tighter one more austere and self-sufficient. This bowl is an experimental use of gold leaf on enamel which she intends to use more in the future.

Mark Bennion is a painter and sculptor who has shown his work across the United States, Canada and Europe since 1968. He lives and works on Vashon Island. Over the past 25 years, Bennion has developed a unique painting process, which he calls fresco, using oil, dry pigment on plaster, and paper on a panel or canvas. Strongly encouraged by mentor William Ivey (1919– 1992), Bennion sees his ‘’frescoes’’ as a confluence of Eastern and Western techniques. The work on plaster is painted and sanded, and painted over and over, sometimes four or five layers but often up to 10 or 12 until the work is complete. Bennion is also a sculptor, exhibiting large-scale geometric welded steel pieces in numerous outdoor installations.

By juxtaposing letters from the grandfather she never knew with images of strange and unfamiliar walls, doors and alleys, she explores the inexplicable connections and emotions one might experience with places seen only in passing and objects of sentimental value. The piece’s bee iconography speaks to the idea of communication and the critical nature of this communication to the survival of the hive. For this reason, the bees are a poetic parallel between the letters and graffiti. Daphne Minkoff is represented by Linda Hodges Gallery.

Gail sees making art as a form of meditation and likes the challenge of using simple gestures and a limited palette to convey a feeling, memory, sensation or place. Summer Triptych is about capturing the memory of summer days filled with warm sun, blue sky, cool water and fresh-mown grass. A selection of her recent paintings are currently on display at TASTE Restaurant at the Seattle Art Museum.

Richard Rhodes apprenticed as a stonemason in Siena, Italy after graduate studies in London. As the first non-Italian admitted into Siena’s ancient masonic guild in 726 years (operative branch of the Freemason’s, heirs to the cathedral builders of Europe), he is known throughout the sculpture and stone community as the “last apprentice.” Though now branching into other media such as cast bronze, Rhodes credits his guild training as the major influence in his sculptural practice.

Enrique’s work is equally influenced by life in a small rural village of Huitzo, Oaxaca, Mexico and by such artists as Rufino Tamayo, Diego Rivera, and Rudolfo Morales. His luxurious use of ink to define stylized forms responds both to the muralist traditions of revolutionary Mexico and to his own experience as a painter of gouache on bark papers. Flores has been a major contributor to the Oaxaca School of Art, especially in the style of “magical realism.” People, farm animals, and everyday objects, such as bicycles and the constellations, weave together in a seamless narrative style. People fly, animals put on ancient masks and musical notes become physical creatures. Enrique was a master artist at Pratt Fine Arts Center in September 2013 and teaches Pratt’s Study Abroad Workshop in Oaxaca every February.

The natural world – its intrinsic energy and fundamental properties – is dependent upon a fine balance. The equilibrium of positive and negative forces extends throughout universal concepts: dark/light, finite/ infinite, soft/hard, and organic/manmade. The five elements – earth, fire, water, air and space – are the foundation of this universe, our bodies and our mental and spiritual selves. Maintaining the balance among and within the elements and understanding their energies is paramount to our survival. Catherine’s work explores the balance of energies in many cultures. Each is an offering to the basic elements of our delicate natural systems. Gua II contains the series of eight trigrams that make up the I Ching 64 hexagrams: heaven, thunder, wind, mountain, fire, water, lake, and earth.

Over the years, as Juan’s images and subjects have changed along with mediums and techniques, he has found that humanity is the driving force in his work. The fact that Juan was born in Cuba, the quick loss of innocence he experienced as a young person in a foreign place, learning a new language, and growing up without immediate family will always affect his work. Juan finds the politics that have made him an outsider intriguing, since they are almost always present, yet out of his control. The human condition, our fragile existence on this planet, the way we relate, love, isolate, and unnecessarily damage ourselves and the world we live in are fascinating topics, no matter how they are ultimately expressed. Juan is influenced by balance, perceived symmetry, architecture, growth and decay, weathered beauty, and the tug-of-war between the natural and the manmade landscape.

The inspiration for Scott’s design comes from the Japanese chochin (paper lantern). Traditionally in Japan, chochin can be found hanging outside of businesses, restaurants, and festivals to tell potential customers what is being offered. Many have simple graphics or lettering with names of food (ramen), characters from culture (Daruma) or simple words of wisdom (beware of fire in your house!). The lanterns are always a sign of hospitality and good food. www.scottydarlington.com

Growing up in the Pacific Northwest on a small island translated into ample time on and around the water for Raven Skyriver. Some of his most memorable moments are those of having his first salmon on the line, or a humpback whale feeding off the bow of his kayak. These unforgettable experiences dictate the work he makes today. He attempts to capture the essence of the animals that he depicts, and speak to the viewer’s own understanding of these creatures. He also hopes to draw into question the delicate balance of nature that is often taken for granted.

ITEM

Armelle Bouchet O’Neill is a French-born, Seattle-based glass artist. Attracted by Scandinavian design, she studied at the Danish Design School on the island of Bornholm from 2005 to 2008. She moved to the United States in 2009, where she shares a studio with her husband and work partner, Sean O’Neill. She has been the recipient of many awards and scholarships, and in 2012, Bouchet O’Neill received the juror’s Grand Prize from Museum of Glass, Tacoma. Bouchet O’Neill’s work draws from the diversity of the rich and wild landscapes of the earth and what they inspire in us. Her work explores the repetition of line and its resulting forms. The lines are carefully laid out on the glass surface and the space between them is carved deeply using high-pressure sand. The series of lines will later reveal a landscape: a curve catches the light, evolves, repeats itself and grows organically, alluding to the rugged yet intricate formation of terrain. www.TraverGallery.com

ITEM

Liquid light moves with calligraphic intention and fluid and elegant gestures. A cooled glass form, now an object, refracts and reflects light, thereby magnifying and illuminating our life experience. As an artist, Julie Conway’s inspiration is to combine glass forms with light sources to create experiential works that may brighten our physical space and perhaps transform our personal state. She is enchanted by the material that is simultaneously a solid and a liquid; its propensity to refract light is an essential part of her work. Illuminata, the name of Julie’s studio, stems from the Italian Renaissance group of thinkers and artists who expanded consciousness and brought enlightenment to the public. Their daring courage influences many of her artworks and challenges her perceived limitations. Included with this piece are LED components and a rechargeable battery pack for an easy, lighted display in any location. www.illuminataglass.com

Chandler Woodfin uses watercolor to explore the interference of humans into the landscape. These places are beautiful and bright, but also sick. They bloom and flourish with overabundance, but the soil and water are frail. These environments are vulnerable. Chandler is a Seattle-based painter and draftsman. Using watercolor and charcoal, she examines what it means to be human in both its personal and social contexts. She focuses on the moments in between action, the overlooked difficulties of our day-to-day existence, and tries to provide antidotes of comfort to our common ailments. Chandler received her BFA from Columbia College of Missouri, and completed a two-year painting apprenticeship at Gage Academy of Art in Seattle. She currently teaches drawing and painting at Pratt Fine Arts Center.
