HO Museum of Art prepares
for arrival of new additions
■ Business school professor
Del Hawkins is appointed to
UO Museum of Art director
in time for renovations
By Rebecca Newell
Oregon Daily Emerald
After a four-year return to full
time teaching, Del I. Hawkins will
again combine his love of market
ing with his passion for the arts,
and especially for the University
of Oregon Museum of Art as the
new director.
Hawkins was named Museum
of Art director
after current
director
David Robert
son turned in
his resigna
tion, effective
June 30.
Robertson,
who has
served as di
rector since
February
1996, is an art history graduate of
the University of Pennsylvania
and the University of Missouri.
“I’m returning home where my
family and other people important
to me live,” Robertson, who is go
ing back to Chicago, said. “In ad
dition, I will have the opportunity
to work and publish in my field of
research interest.”
“David Robertson did a phe
nomenal job. When we hired him,
I had high expectations, and he ex
ceeded them all,” said Hawkins,
who served as an interim director
for one year before Robertson was
hired.
Continuing with Robertson’s
momentum will be a huge task but
something that Hawkins says he is
eager to do.
“My challenge will be two
fold,” Hawkins said. “First, to con
tinue to raise funds necessary to
complete the building project, and
second, to be the most visible rep
resentative of the museum in the
community.”
The museum’s $12 million
HAWKINS
building campaign will more than
double the size of the current
building, which is listed on the
National Register of Historic
Places. The renovations will be in
line with the original plans during
construction in 1932, which were
changed when the Depression hit.
Besides increasing the size of
the museum, the campaign will
also renovate the public spaces,
galleries and support area. “I an
ticipate the successful completion
of fund raising for this project in
the next few months and then I
look forward to overseeing ground
breaking, and the start of construc
tion,” Hawkins said.
In order to facilitate this mas
sive change, the museum, which
draws between 40,000 and 50,000
visitors a year, will close for two
years, reopening in early 2003.
“We’ll be a museum without walls
for a while, which will be a chal
lenge,” Hawkins said. “But this
i ( It’s just very pleasant
to be associated with
such a passionate group
of people.
Del Hawkins
future art museum
director
museum is special, and I think the
new building will enhance that. ”
Hawkins acknowledged that it
will be a challenge to keep the mu
seum visible while the building is
closed. Backed by a phenomenal
staff, he said he will meet that
challenge by expanding outreach
programs in order to make artwork
available for students, as well as
maintaining the museum’s pres
ence in the community.
“It’s just very pleasant to be as
sociated with such a passionate
group of people; the staff and
friends of the museum. There are
amazing numbers of people who
donate so much time and energy
to the museum,” Hawkins said,
explaining the key role staff and
volunteers fill.
Hawkins will also step down as
the head of the marketing depart
ment. During his contract as direc
tor of the museum, he will also
hold a part-time appointment in
the business school. He will hold
the position of director for 18
months, after which he will retire
from full-time work, teaching 1/3
time, and pursue more non-profit
work.
“We are fortunate to have*such a
well-qualified person available to
step into this key position on short
notice to carry forward the mo
mentum began by David Robert
son,” Lorraine Davis, Vice Provost
of the University, said.
Davis also explained the unusu
al decision to appoint a business
professor as director of the Muse
um of Art. “Del Hawkins has ideal
qualifications, combining his
business and management profes
sional expertise with a strong in
terest for the arts and the muse
um’s vitality,” Davis said.
Hawkins admitted that his first
stint as museum director was a
pleasant surprise. “I wasn’t active
ly involved with the museum un
til I became director, but it was ad
dictive,” Hawkins said,
explaining his current role with
the Museum Board of directors,
where he has served two terms.
“The museum is a strange beast. It
has a power to grab a hold of you
and doesn’t let go easily.”
Hawkins said he also believes
that the national search for a per
manent director will be met with
success. “During Robertson’s four
year tenure, the UO art museum’s
stature and outreach have grown
dramatically so that I consider the
directorship will be viewed as a
real ‘gem’ of a job,” Hawkins said.
After retirement, Hawkins
plans to continue his involvement
with the museum, foreseeing a
committee position for the board.
“The museum almost has a life of
it’s own, a presence. Being part of
it is a real delight,” he said.
Prostitution
continued from page 1
lar to a Portland ordinance the
Oregon Supreme Court is sched
uled to address later this summer.
A Portland woman, who was
convicted of prostitution and or
dered not to enter the city’s prosti
tution-free zone for 90 days,
brought her appeal before the Ore
gon Supreme Court, arguing the
exclusion placed her in double
jeopardy — that it punished her
for the same crime twice.
If the City Council approves the
zone as proposed by the Police
Commission, individuals arrested
for prostitution or soliciting pros
titution would be issued an order,
excluding them from the area un
til appearing before a judge for a
hearing. At the hearing, the judge
would consider extenuating cir
cumstances and either drop or en
force the exclusion from the zone,
which could last up to a year.
In conjunction with the prosti
tution-free zone, police would im
plement an “anti-cruising dis
trict,” which would be moved to
areas prone to prostitution. The
names and identities of men ar
rested for soliciting prostitutes
could possibly be published in
the paper, as well as on the Eu
gene Police Department’s Web
site.
“Punishment for convicted
prostitutes isn’t really punish
ment, it’s help,” Commissioner
Pat Farr said, referring to the pos
sibility of a state-mandated drug
treatment program for convicted
prostitutes.
"The women who I believe are
the victims will be provided with
treatment,” Mayor Jim Torrey
said, backing up the idea that
treatment, not punishment,
would be more effective.
In support, Portland police offi
cers say the prostitution-free zone
has been successful in Portland
on cutting down the city’s flesh
trade, and could also be success
ful in Eugene.
“Street-level prostitution tends
to congregate-around certain ar
eas,” Larry Kochever, captain of
the Portland Police Department’s
drug and vice division, said.
“Prostitution-free zones attack the
foundation of prostitution by lit
erally running the trade off the
streets.”
“It’s not an absolute solution,
but we’re moving in the right di
rection,” Commissioner Gary
Pape said.
