City of University Place announcement.
A piece of artwork found in a storage area has the U.P. Historical Society asking for your help in identifying its origins!
Hopefully, sharing these images will spark someone’s memory or perhaps lead to a clue that might put the Society on the right path to finding out from where it came.
The artwork is a school painting of Curtis on canvas cloth, more than four feet tall, painted in 1992. The artists’ names are listed, as seen in the photo.
If you have any information whatsoever, please call Frank at 253.301.8578.
Artists’ names???
Artists’ names? Where??
Just a bit concerned here about the use of the term “Artists”. If the U.P. Historical Society where to search for “students” they might have more success. As an educator and artist, I might suggest to ‘ let sleeping paintings lie’. This one is very tired and needs a lot more rest…especially for a historical society…maybe 50 years or so. There was an actual group or movement in the Art World called “Bad Art”, trying to breakdown or question the established values in traditional art making. May I suggest starting there?
