Background Information: A Call to Artists was released in March 2015 to local, regional and national artists requesting proposals for public art to be placed in the City’s fifth roundabout. The submittals were reviewed at the April 28, 2015 Arts Council meeting, where the Arts Council selected Dream Big, Kathleen Caricof, and Seth Vandable as finalists for the roundabout. The next step in the process to secure art for the project is the presentation of the artists’ final concepts for the Art s Council’s recommendation. Copies of the final concepts are attached for your review. The Southlake Arts Council is being asked to select one concept for recommendation to City Council and an alternate concept. City Council will consider the selected art piece (and alternate art piece if necessary) at their June 16, 2015 meeting. Financial Considerations: Funding in the amount of $90,000 has been allocated for the design and installation of a public art piece for the roundabout project. Strategic Link: Selection of the public art is linked to the City’s Strategy Map related to the focus area of Quality Development and meets the corporate objective to provide attractive and unique spaces for the enjoyment of personal interests. It also addresses Critical Business Outcome CB01, to implement Southlake 2030 Plan by focusing on short-term initiatives. 3A - 1 Southlake Arts Council Meeting Date – May 26, 2015 Page 2 of 2 City of Southlake Values: Integrity ♦ Innovation ♦ Accountability ♦ Commitment to Excellence ♦ Teamwork Citizen Input/ Board Review: The selection of public art complies with provisions of the Public Art Policy and the Southlake 2030 Public Art Master Plan.

Legal Review: Not Applicable Alternatives: Not Applicable Supporting Documents: Artists’ concepts Recommendation: Southlake Arts Council recommendation on one final concept and one alternate concept for public art at the roundabout at Dove Road and Peytonville Avenue/Sam School Road 3A - 2 “Flying Together”. Southlake Roundabout Proposal Dream Big Sculpture “Flying Together” features two bronze eagles soaring majestically into the sky symbolizing the great heights that have been achieved through the spirit of community in Southlake. The eagles, birds native to the Texas area, represent the ideas of freedom and innovation while reflecting Southlake’s traditional, small town charm. The pair of eagles will be flying across a stainless steel mobius circle as they move into the future. The circle integrates a timeless, contemporary element to this cast bronze sculpture, and will have a surface treatment that will be ‘brushed’, leaving it luminescent yet non- reflective, eliminating any possibility of glare for motorists. Knowing that roundabouts serve as portals into the city, we were struck by the need for a sculpture that not only compliments the design elements of these exceptional neighborhoods, but rises above the roundabout so that it can be better seen and appreciated by all the residents and visitors to Southlake. The two eagles, (similar to the one pictured below fig.1) are unique in design and will be held aloft by two stainless steel pillars mounted in a granite base. ”Flying together” will be interesting and engaging from all angles, and will be cast from the highest quality silicon bronze and stainless steel, which are materials well known to be both durable and low maintenance. Following is a detail shot of a sculpture similar to the ones being created for this project, along with three other concept sketches of our proposal.

The comments of the committee were very helpful, and in fact, inspired us to a higher degree of creativity as we considered your thoughts on our original proposal. Everything about The Marq Southlake is a celebration. There is a celebration of the arts every time you have a performance there, and it is a celebration of life and community each time people come together or to use the other facilities at the Marq. One of the elements you like about the “Peace” sculpture is that it has the feel of someone dancing. Perfect for a sculpture placed next to an amphitheater, we took this element a bit further in “Celebrate” as we kicked back one leg of the sculpture creating even more motion. Again taking into account the ideas that came out of the Arts Council, we replaced the folded cranes for something more appropriate to the intent of The Marq. Now spiral ribbons with colored circles create a feeling of celebration. Within this celebratory element will also be abstracted symbols of the perfor ming arts. Different symbols will be visible from different viewing locations creating interest from each viewpoint of the sculpture. One option for community involvement would be to invite the community to submit ideas for the symbols to be included in the sculpture. As far as color, we decided to keep some splashes, and to simplify our pallette. There will be just a few randomly placed colors, enough to be bright and cheerful, but we’ll refrain from using the entire spectrum of the rainbow. “Celebrate’s” unique composition and exuberant nature will serve to welcome residents and visitors of all ages to T he Marq Southlake. ”Celebrate” is beautiful and engaging from all angles. At over 20 feet tall ( 24 ft. tall with the base), it will be large enough to be seen and appreciated from both the ampitheatre and the nearby street. A sculpture in this prominent location speaks volumes about Southlake’s commitment to enrich the quality of life for the community. “Celebrate” will serve to inspire and delight people for years to come. In the pages below are the Concept Sketches of “Celebrate”. Two of the sketches are done in Photoshop and one is a rendering to show scale. 3B - 3 “Celebrate” The Marq Southlake Lorri Acott www.DreamBigSculpture.com 3B - 4 3B - 5 I designed this artwork for the Marq Southlake Phase 1 location and its nearby amphitheatre in mind. “The Musicians” consists of three separate site-specific sculptures that speak to music, Southlake’s new amphitheater and the importance of community. My interest in this opportunity comes from my role as a public artist and my interest in creating artwork for public places. CONCEPT This open and airy design features a trio of abstracted musicians; a cello player, a flute player and a violinist. These instuments are used in a wide variety of music, from classical to rock as well as bluegrass and jazz. The trio’s whimsical design has a cubist, “Picasso-esque” feel to it and will appeal to visitors of all ages. “Picasso-esque” feel to it and will appeal to visitors of all ages. The sculptures will be unique fabrications of multiple materials, making them visually interesting from all angles. Each sculpture’s design uses both positive & negative space built upon in layers. Some layers are solid, while others are represented by open linear elements. Made predominantly out of durable stainless steel and limestone, each sculpture will also include special accents of bronze, copper, brass and stone as details in the instruments themselves. I have designed this placement with the cello, violin & flute in mind, however I would be open to other instrumentation if desired. As designed, the sculptures are 9 to 10 feet tall.As designed, the sculptures are 9 to 10 feet tall. This scale is significant, but not imposing within a public space. Because of the sculptures’ scale, they will be noticeable from a great distance, attracting viewers for a closer look. This sculpture is a playful visual reference to the Southlake community and entertainment options that will be available at The Marq Southlake Phase 1. ARTWORK INSTALLATION The sculpture’s site preparation and installation will be coordinated with the City of Southlake. The anticipated installation of the artwork will consist of a crane or forklift hoisting the sculptures into place, then securely bolting them to the artwork site. At this stage in the process, main the process, many aspects of the artwork location and installation are not known, so it is difficult to give an accurate description. All aspects of the sculpture fabrication and installation will follow the strict guidelines of the structural engineering requirements. I have worked with the National Sculptors’ Guild on all of my large-scale installations and this project for the City of Southlakewill be no exception. The Guild has 20+ years of experience in the placement of public art, and has already placed several sculptures in the City of Southlake. Their expertise in the placement of large-scale artwork combined with their working relationship with your City will guaguarantee a successful installation. Thank you for this opportunity. Kathleen Caricof 3B - 6 3B - 7 3B - 8 3B - 9 3B - 10 “HIGHNOTE” Proposed Public Artwork for The Marq Southlake Phase 1 Public Art Project I am honored to have been selected as a finalist for The Marq Southlake Phase 1 Public Art Project. Thank you for this opportunity to present my proposed artwork “HighNote” to your Arts Council. “HighNote” is inspired by The Marq Southlake Phase 1 and Aria Amphitheatre in theme and form. This sculpture will serve to identify its location and the cultural offerings it presents. The sculpture takes the form of a monumental scale Treble Clef – instantly recognizable as a symbol of music in its many forms. This elegantly curving artwork is crafted from stainless steel and translucent colored acrylic which are engaging and durable materials, proven for use in public artwork. Thematically, this sculpture is a visual reference to the Marq Southlake Phase 1’s adjacent outdoor amphitheater, Aria, as well as the Southlake community as a whole. In music notation, the Treble Clef is used to signify the higher end of musical register. I gravitated toward this recognizable symbol as a metaphorical representation of The Marq development signifying the “high notes” of the Southlake community experience. Additionally, the sculpture’s five windows of translucent acrylic - each a unique color - represent the Arts: Music, Theatre, Dance, Visual Art and Writing. They also refer to the cultural diversity of Southlake’s population. In designing an artwork to complement this multipurpose community facility, I focused on the attractive sweeping designs found within the Marq’s architecture as well as the roofline of the Aria Amphitheatre and the undulating paths that wind through the Bicentennial Park. The primary material for "Wellspring" is stainless steel finished in a hand-crafted brushed pattern which will shimmer in the Texas sun and ambient nighttime lighting. This finish allows for easy touch-ups should any damage occur. The colorful acrylic elements will be securely set within a stainless steel frame. Overall artwork dimensions will be approximately 14ft tall, 4ft wide and 2ft deep. At this scale, the sculpture will become an iconic presence for its location near the Aria Amphitheatre. Structurally, “HighNote” includes a sturdy integrated base, avoiding the need for any extensive site work beyond poured concrete footings. As with any of my public placements, all aspects of the design, fabrication and installation of this artwork will meet exacting structural engineering requirements. I firmly believe that the creation of artwork for public spaces demands the consideration of multiple points of view, diverse inputs, and compromise. In my 20-year career as a public artist, I have worked with administrators, citizens and other design/construction professionals on large-scale artworks across the country. I’m grateful to the Southlake Arts Council for this opportunity and I hope to discuss “HighNote” with you further.
