サンフランシスコから車で約 3 時間。 レッドウッドの森をはじめとする自然豊かな山稜を背にした太平洋を臨む崖の上の台地にメンドシーノの街はあります。 メンドシーノ周辺には風光明媚な環境を求めアーティストやクラフトマンが多く集まり、多くのギャラリーが立地し、 アートが感じられる町として全米から訪れる人も多いところです。
メンドシーノの町と旧美麻村( 現・大町市)は1980 年、 メンドシーノアートセンターの創設者ビル・ザッカ氏 (Bill Zacha) と版画家・吉田遠志氏を通じて国際姉妹村として締結がなされて以来、交流が続いています。 2008 年からは、 メンドシーノのアーティストと松本、安曇野、大町地区の作家たちを中心に毎年隔年で相互訪問の交流展を続け、今回で14 周年を迎えました。
このような芸術分野での国際交流は、風土や文化背景の異なる国の人々が創作の世界においてさまざまな刺激を受ける機会となり、 創造の意欲や新たな取組みを進める大きなきっかけとなっています。 この芸術交流が今後さらに広がり、互いの国の地域文化創造の可能性が大きく広がることを期待しています。

Three hours away from San Francisco by car lies Mendocino. A city on a plateau overlooking the Pacific with a rich natural mountain range and beautiful Redwood forests. In the area surrounding Mendocino, many artists and craftsmen dwell, seeking a place of scenic beauty. Since there are many galleries, people from all over the country visit the area to see the art.
Mendocino and Miasa have been sustaining an exchange since Bill Zacha, who established the Mendocino Art Center, and Toshi Yoshida, a woodblock printer, created a sister city relationship in 1980. They began an exchange exhibition to allow for the artistic exchange between the artists of the Mendocino area, and the artists of Omachi, Azumino and Matsumoto in 2008. This year marks its 14th anniversary. An international exchange of the artistic world such as this gives people from different cultural backgrounds the opportunity to see all kinds of inspiration and brings motivation for creation, leading to new projects. We hope that this art exchange will develop further and that the possibilities of locally created culture in both of our countries will continue to expand.

We welcome you back to our Redwood Grove in 2021 with a few safety protocols to keep in mind. First, we are switching to advance tickets required for all days to track and limit the amount of visitors, we are limiting the number of vendor booths, artists, and volunteers as well. Masking is required for everyone indoors and outside when gathering to watch entertainment and when distancing is not possible. There are several hand washing and sanitation stations scattered throughout the grounds. We have installed several air scrubbers/purifiers throughout the galleries, and the doors and windows will remain open to let the healing Pacific breezes in. Please dress in layers to adapt to the ever-changing environment.

Salon & Salon de Refuses May 15, 2021 to June 21, 21
2021-05-15 11:00 - 2021-06-22 16:00 | Gualala Art Center 46501 Old State Hwy, 46501 Old State Highway, Gualala, 95445, United States
The Gualala Salon and Salon des Refusés has earned a reputation as the top judged and juried fine art exhibit on the Mendonoma Coast. Organized and curated by the North Coast Artists Guild, the exhibit is held annually at the Gualala Arts Center and will fill three large gallery spaces with over one hundred pieces of fine art. Prestigious artists, art dealers, academics, and collectors are recruited to be judges.
The judges decide which artwork will be accepted and shown in the Burnett Gallery. Work not juried into the Salon by the judges is displayed in the Salon des Refusés, located in the Elaine Jacob Foyer and Coleman Hall. Thus, all artwork submitted into the show is exhibited. Which artists have been selected into the Salon is a tightly held secret until opening night.
The original Salon des Refusés exhibition took place in Paris in 1863, showing works that had been rejected by the official Paris Salon judges. These judges represented the French Academy and were advocates of a traditional, orthodox style of painting and sculpture. In 1863, they rejected almost 3,000 pieces of work, including many now considered masterpieces such as Manet’s Le Dejeuner sur l’Herbe and Whistler’s Symphony in White, No. 1.
The resulting furor led Emperor Napoleon III to mandate that a second exhibition (dubbed the “Salon des Refuses”) be organized so that the public might judge the merits of the artwork themselves. In the spirit of the original Paris Salon des Refusés, all visitors to the Gualala Salon des Refusés are able to vote for the “People’s Choice” awards. In fact, many artists prefer to be selected as a “refusé” to receive the public’s opinion. This is a wonderful opportunity for artists to stretch themselves and experiment.

Gualala Salon and Salon des Refusés May 15-June 20, 2021
2021-05-14 11:00 - 2021-06-20 14:00 | 33620 Highway one, Gualala. CA 95445, 33620 Highway One, Gualala, CA, 95445, United States
Members are free to preview the exhibit this Friday, May 14 from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and then on Saturday, May 15, everyone is invited to see the new works of art on display throughout the center, including the Burnett Gallery (the Salon) and the Elaine Jacob Foyer (the Salon dés Refuses). Regular exhibit hours are 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Following an open call to artists, the show’s curator, Bruce Jones and other volunteers set about preparing the art for the judges to consider, and then proceeded to set each gallery with the paintings, drawings, ceramics, jewelry, sculpture, fabric and more. Always a difficult task given the quality of the work entered in this annual event, the judges will weigh-in with their selections.
This year’s judges are April and Ron Dammann, and happily they are not new to the challenge of judging fine art in our community. They applied their lifelong involvement in the arts as judges at Art in the Redwoods in 2013 and in the 2017 Salon. Their lives have been informed by art as both collectors and scholars.
Watch a video of April and Ron Dammann talk about art and the Salon and Salon des Refusés.
April Dammann, with degrees in French literature from UCLA, the University of Rochester and the Sorbonne, is an art historian and art gallery archivist who has written four biographical art histories. She developed a career in screenwriting and theatrical production during her years in Hollywood, where she and Ron lived in a home/art gallery that was designated an historic cultural monument.
Ron Dammann earned a B.A. in art history/anthropology at the University of Arizona and is a third generation art dealer. His family operated the Stendahl Galleries of Art for over a century. His experience restoring, selling and appraising painting and sculpture increased the prestige of the historic gallery and led to his role as president. He was also president of the Art Dealers Association of California for three terms and headed the Los Angeles Ethnic Arts Council, where he brought increased attention to his specialty: Pre-Columbian art of Mexico and Central America.

Valentine's day Exhibition at the Coast Highway Art Collective

Opening Reception
‘Poetry on the Spot’ returning to Point Arena
By Rozann Grunig
The members of the Coast Highway Art Collective are hosting their first opening reception of 2021 on Saturday, Feb. 6 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. This Valentine’s Day-themed exhibit posed questions to the members of the Collective; “What does Valentine’s day mean to you, your friends and family in the time of COVID 19? Is love complicated, tumultuous or simple? How do you express it in your art?” Our members took this challenge to heart, so to speak, and this exciting and creative exhibit is the result.
The exhibit inside the gallery will feature works by new member, Phil Clark, woodworker; as well as pieces by Bea Acosta, pine needle baskets; Andrea Allen, Chinese Brush painting; Lena Bullamore, drawing and painting; Colette Coad, art glass; Ling-Yen Jones, jewelry; Rozann Grunig, photography; Kersten & Ants, jewelry; Tamar Lenzi, lapidary & wire wrapped Jewelry; Geraldine LiaBraaten, photography; Jack O’Rourke, watercolor; Brenda Phillips, Ceramics; Scott Sewell, photography; Deborah Threlkel Abalone Queen jewelry; Kathryn Weiss, glass beads and jewelry.
On the patio, local poets Blake More and Lauren Sinnott will write a poem for visitors for their special Valentine. They are excited to revive “Poems on the Spot,” the beloved tradition started by Caroline Cooke and Stephen Kessler back in the day of CityArt. “Lauren and Blake will be on our outdoor patio, socially distanced, while they talk with you and compose your poem, either on a computer or written by hand,” says gallery manager, Ling-Yen Jones. “When your poem is finished, they will email it or send it to you. There will be a small fee requested of $10 to $50.”
Lauren, Blake and Ling-Yen will be interviewed on KGUA on Tuesday, Feb. 2 at 9 a.m. to discuss the show and their approach to poetry and art.
