===== PDF PAGE 65 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] CITY OF WEST CHICAGO PUBLIC AFFAIRS COMMITTEE AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY ITEM TITLE: Proposal for Butterfly Mural on Southwest | AGENDAITEMNUMBER: ___v.A. Corner of Supermercado Tampico Building FILE NURIEER: COMMITTEE AGENDA DATE: June 24, 2019 COUNCIL AGENDA DATE: STAFF REVIEW: Rosemary Mackey SIGNATURE APPROVED BY CITY ADMINISTRATOR: Michael Guttman SIGNATURE. ITEM SUMMARY: The Cultural Arts Commission wishes to build the City’s collection of meaningful Public Art installations which aim to capture the spirit and story of the community, as well as document the past and present and create a sense of place that is uniquely West Chicago. As such, the Commission is proposing the creation of a mural by prolific Mexican artist Juan Chawuk, which makes a strong symbolic connection between Monarch butterfly migration and the migration of diverse immigrant populations that traveled to West Chicago throughout its history. As West Chicago celebrates the Year of the Butterfly, the mural would capture the transformative beauty of butterflies, the need to appreciate and nurture these important pollinators, and the opportunity to celebrate One West Chicago through art. Members of the Commission have been talking with owners of Supermercado Tampico and confirmed interest in the mural being installed on the southwest side of their building, with visibility to countless commuters of Metra as well pedestrian traffic from the walking trail and from Main Street. The mural, approximately eight feet by sixteen feet, would be the first of several similarly sized panels of a related theme which could be added in subsequent years. Specific details addressing budget, materials, and maintenance are contained in the attached Commission- generated proposal, including a rendering of the proposed artwork for the first panel. A formal hosting agreement will be created with owners of Supermercado Tampico, naming the City of West Chicago as the owner of the artwork, once the project is approved. ACTIONS PROPOSED: Consideration of the Commission’s proposal. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: ===== PDF PAGE 66 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] Juan Chawuk (Juan Aguilar Santis) Birthdate: January 30, 1971 Birthplace: Las Margaritas, Chiapas Residency: San Cristébal de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico Email: juanchawuk@hotmail.com Cellular: 01152 1967 1030 589 BIO Juan Chawuk is a Tojolobal Maya from Chiapas, Mexico, and is considered by many to be the best artist in Chiapas, Mexico, and an area known worldwide for its artistic excellence. He has had exhibits as well as done murals all over Mexico, in the United States and Europe. He is an excellent educator and is amazing with children and he can do workshops and projects with students and can paint murals as well. U.S. exhibits West Chicago, Illinois Chicago Kansas City, Missouri Los Angeles, CA Milwaukee, WI Moline, Illinois Phoenix, Arizona Rutgers University He has also done murals in Kansas City and Chicago. He has also exhibited and held workshops in Belgium China Columbia France Italy ===== PDF PAGE 67 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] ARTIST STATEMENT Ideas appear unbeholden to topic or established styles. Chawuk’s journey in the arts is visionary but barely accepted because it is complex and arduous. He himself flees from the comfortable ease of a trend or label. He leaps into risk. He neither self-excludes nor indulges himself in vanity art. Instead, even in mistakes, he exalts rational, emotional intelligence within the freedom found therein. That is when the panorama unfolds in his creation, strengthening the reflection of textures of Character, Time and Matter. With the allure of pheromonic attraction that transports us over rainbows of acceptance and respect for human diversity or the uncovering of feculent humanity’s racism or discrimination. Below is a mural from Kansas City school and the second is a mural he did at Solorio. He has done 6 murals in the U.S. and over 20 in Mexico. The others are samples of his work. ===== PDF PAGE 68 ===== [Extraction: no text detected] [No text detected on this page; page may be blank, photographic, or graphical.] ===== PDF PAGE 69 ===== [Extraction: no text detected] [No text detected on this page; page may be blank, photographic, or graphical.] ===== PDF PAGE 70 ===== [Extraction: no text detected] [No text detected on this page; page may be blank, photographic, or graphical.] ===== PDF PAGE 71 ===== [Extraction: no text detected] [No text detected on this page; page may be blank, photographic, or graphical.] ===== PDF PAGE 72 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] Following Mexican artist, Juan Chawuk’s success three years of projects in c West Chicago working with People Made Visible and the Mexican Cultural Center DuPage, the West Chicago Cultural Arts Commission (CAC) has approach Juan for a special public art project directly tied to West Chicago’s year of the butterfly. The CAC truly believes West Chicago is a leader in suburban art, and would like to better showcase that through public art at strategic entry points into the City. After discussions with the Ocampo family, who own Supermercado Tampico, it has been proposed to place a butterfly mural on the southwest side of their building to greet visitors who enter West Chicago on the train. The goal would be to expand public murals to eventually cover the entire west side of the building, beautifying the space that greets many people. An 8 foot by 16 foot mural is proposed, attached digital sketch is proposed, although please see reference images for Juan’s work which is more representative of the actual style the mural will be painting in. The mural will be painted onto four aluminum panels in an open studio at Gallery 200, located at 103 W. Washington, over a three week time frame, and then the panels will be directly attached to the Supermercado Tampico building in a way that complies with public art standards and in a way that makes maintenance most efficient. Juan has been engaged through the College of DuPage’s upcoming Frida 2020 exhibit planning committee to do an art piece of the upcoming Frida Kahlo show in July 2019, and West Chicago would be able to have Juan in West Chicago following his work in Glen Ellyn for COD, further capitalizing on the publicity he will receive for his project there. The budge for the project is as follows: Artist fee $3,000 Artist housing & food $550 Aluminum panels $500 Paint, primer, sealer, brushes $700 Plaque label $100 Installation $350 Total budget $5,200 $5,000 of this will be covered from the CAC’s budget. As the piece will belong to the City of West Chicago, but be hosted by Supermercado Tampico, Tampico is willing to cover the additional $200 toward the installation fee. The CAC will place this public art piece into its maintenance plan which entails an annual review of all public art with assessments for repairs and maintenance procedures such as resealing, that will be added to each budget request. Maintenance fees are estimated to be minor based on assessments of previous projects and other communities’ projects. ===== PDF PAGE 73 ===== [Extraction: no text detected] [No text detected on this page; page may be blank, photographic, or graphical.] ===== PDF PAGE 74 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] Proposed mural digital draft ===== PDF PAGE 75 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] other examples of Juan's murals ===== PDF PAGE 76 ===== [Extraction: embedded PDF text] WEST CHICAGO POLICE DEPARTMENT MONTHLY REPORT MARCH 2019 Michael Uplegger, Chief of Police ===== PDF PAGE 77 ===== [Extraction: embedded PDF text] West Chicago Police Department Monthly TABLEOFCONTENTS Organizational Chart ..................................................................................................... 3 Department Overview .................................................................................................. 4 Personnel ....................................................................................................................... 5 Criminal Activities ................................................................................................................. 6 Monthly Performance ............................................................................................................... 10 IUCR…………………………………………………………………………..11 Officer Activities ............................................................................................................ 12 2 ===== PDF PAGE 78 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] West Chicago Police Department Monthly Organizational Chart WEST CHICAGO POLICE January 1, 2019 ===== PDF PAGE 79 ===== [Extraction: embedded PDF text] West Chicago Police Department Monthly Department Overview The Mission of the West Chicago Police Department is to Protect Life and Liberty, Provide Quality Police Services, and Forge Community Partnerships with Integrity and Professionalism.
