^^LACKAMASp^jflf ews March 9, 2005 ew buildings await art Uff Sorensen K> Clackamas Print Blank walls and bare side- ■cs all over campus are Hnning to give way to murals ■ sculptures, as faculty and ■inistrators have begun the ■1 process of moving into ■r new buildings: the deco- Ke new art (and some L homes for older art) has Lome the responsibility of K True, an instructor for the |t Department and chairman of [e Art Acquisition Committee B’s focused on making the ■pus a little more interesting i look at. ■My intent is to find sponsors Io create artwork for some of the spaces,” said True. “There may be some outright purchases later on if we can get the endow ments.” While True oversees the proj ect to add and relocate some of the artwork, many of the fac ulty and staff members are also enjoying some creative input for their work environment. “One of the things our college has supported is art in the build ings,” said Lynda Graf, assistant to the dean of enrollment servic es. “We’ve been in [Rook Hall] a year and we decided art would make a nice addition.” New to Rook, a painting that spent part of its life hanging in the cafeteria was recently relo cated to the building’s first floor near the elevator, and, accord ing to Graf, more plans are in the works for Rook’s two-story lobby. “We have several proposals out,” said True of future plans for Rook and the rest of the campus. “Until we get through the mini-grant process next week, we won’t know what’s funded.” Without any kind of specific budget for the artwork, True has tapped both his own creativity and some of the campus artwork in storage to help fill in some of the spaces on campus. “Being a county entity, Clackamas is subject to the rules and regulations,” said True, who’s still looking for both financial and creative contribu tions from the local art scene. Some of the creative contri butions have already appeared in the form of sculptures in front of the Niemeyer Center’s main entrance. These were donated by Lee Imonen and M.J. Anderson, both sculpture artists known in the Portland area, to help liven up the new sidewalk in front of the Niemeyer lobby, but True also has a few more tricks up his sleeve. “There is another mural in storage I haven’t seen yet,” said True. “That work in front of Niemeyer will stay there for a while.” True says he’s looking for ward to getting a little more accomplished during spring break, and when the students return to classes in April, the hope is that the campus will have a few more pieces of genu ine artwork to attract the eye.
