Alameda County Community Food Bank murals created by students of Eduardo Pineda's ENGAGE:Mural Arts class, Fall 2011
No full textIn fall of 2011 Eduardo Pineda's ENGAGE: Mural Arts class created murals for the Alameda County Community Food Bank (ACCFB), for the newly constructed storage and distribution facility. Student majors included graphic design, illustration, textiles, printmaking, writing & literature, individualized program, photography, sculpture, and painting/drawing. The collaborative design and painting process produced wood mural panels for the food sorting area, and a larger mural on canvas at the entrance to the facility. Students met with Food Bank staff to learn about the organization’s mission and observe the facility’s environment. The students also benefited from the architectural design of the warehouse produced by a previous CCA class — an Interior Design course taught by Amy Campos — in order to identify the best placement of the murals within the facility.
In the panels, the students wanted to represent the transformation of food from packaged resource at the food bank to when it emerges at homes as bright and bountiful sustenance. In the canvas mural, students wanted to express the many hands food passes through in order to get the people served by ACCFB: farmers, donors, legislators, warehouse volunteers, truckers, agencies, on its route to the community
To curate in the field: archaeological privatization and the aesthetic ‘legislation’ of antiquity in India
Get PDFThis paper strives to pluralize notions of taste in relation to the canonized
category of the Hindu or Indian temple. I put ‘Hindu’ in italics because I include
Jain temples in my discussion and I put ‘Indian’ in italics because the architecture
I discuss predates India as a nation-state and in the twenty-first century includes
buildings in South and Southeast Asia as well as the Diaspora. Through a
discussion of the Archaeological Preservation Aesthetic (APA) and multiple
variants of the Ritual Renovation Aesthetics (RRA), new ways of looking
emerge. This paper seeks to reconcile the hegemonic assumptions about art
historical taste and the temple within an increasingly global environment. The
main argument is predicated on temple users’ practice as a form of curatorial
practice in the field and provides a deep description of the multiplication of
aesthetics due to increasing privatization of temple administration in India. The
tenth-century cluster of temples from the Medapata region (Southern Rajasthan)
serves as case study for a widespread phenomenon of putting ancient temples
‘back’ into worship during the second half of the twentieth and the beginning of
the twenty-first century
