Tacoma's vacant spaces are full of storefront art surprises
Tacoma's vacant spaces are full of storefront art surprises
Dec 09, 2011 (The News Tribune - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- Storefront art surprises This time of year, Tacoma needs all the brightness it can get. Nights are long, days are dark, the recession isn't over, and increasing numbers of businesses are closing shop. But at least we have public art -- while it's still part of Tacoma's budget, at any rate.
A great example of why public art dollars are well spent is visible right now in vacant storefronts along Broadway and down South 11th Street in downtown Tacoma, where the latest Artscapes installations offer intricate new worlds and sculptures of light to brighten our winter darkness.
Part of the Spaceworks program to fill empty commercial spaces with art, the three-block stretch of Artscapes installations makes an easy walk. Beginning on Broadway just south of Ninth Street, opposite the Pantages, are two tiny worlds as intricate as they are different. In one window is Kelly June Mitchell's forest: paper scrolls screenprinted with trees, a scattering of leaves and twigs, a gorgeous fall leaf rosette hanging like a dark sun and a little shrine of concrete Buddha, deer and rabbits. The forest occupies its urban space with a Zen calm, inviting contemplation; it is empty yet satisfying.
