In Memoriam
Leadership in Arts Education
Dear Friends, In January we held staff and faculty meetings to discuss the draft, and revisions were made. At its February meeting the Board of Trustees approved the plan. I would like to thank all of those who participated in this process. As we know, a good strategic plan is never truly “finished.” It is a document that is meant to guide an institution, but it cannot anticipate every opportunity or challenge that will present itself. With that in mind, we hope to keep the plan very much a living document. I urge you to view the plan on our website at California College of the Arts educates students www.cca.edu/about/stratplan. Please feel free to to shape culture through the practice and critiemail your comments, questions, or concerns to cal study of the arts. The college prepares its comments@cca.edu. students for lifelong creative work and service to In closing, I would like to share with you a pastheir communities through a curriculum in art, sage from the plan that articulates the ambitions of architecture, design, and writing. the college for the coming years:
For the past nine months, the college community has been engaged in developing a strategic plan to carry CCA through its centenary. Students, faculty, staff, alumni, and trustees have participated in a series of lively and informative discussions, culminating with a daylong Board of Trustees meeting in December. Faculty, staff, and student representatives were in attendance, and there was plenty of good discussion concerning the key values and mission of the college. In the process, we came to consensus about the following revision of the mission statement:
After the initial discussion, participants focused their work in small groups to develop ideas relating to the three overarching goals of the strategic plan: • Enhance national visibility through academic excellence • Maintain a sustainable business model • Strengthen internal and external community relations Several common themes emerged. There was strong agreement that we should work to create strategic partnerships with local and national organizations and to build stronger bridges between the campus community and the creative economies of Northern California. Many other good ideas were incorporated into a draft of the plan.
With this strategic plan, CCA proposes a series of initiatives aimed at establishing the institution as a leader in education through the arts. In this capacity, CCA will offer its students the very best education an art college can offer, provide its alumni the greatest opportunities for creative work and public service, and give its communities the benefits of sharing the public sphere with a vibrant and dynamic cultural institution.
Sincerely,
Michael S. Roth President

Writing Programs Flourish at CCA In fall 2004 the MFA Program in Writing will welcome its largest class yet. As many as thirty-five poets, fiction writers, and writers of creative nonfiction will join the college’s flourishing literary community. In recent years, California College of the Arts has expanded its offerings to include both a graduate writing program (which graduated its first class in 2002) and a BA Program in Creative Writing, headed by poet Stephen Ajay, which admitted its first students in fall 2003. Ann Joslin Williams, fiction writer and chair of the MFA Program in Writing, believes that a majority of CCA’s graduate writing students are attracted to the art school setting. Williams says, “We encourage the crossing of genres. If you are a fiction writer and you want to take a poetry workshop, or a studio art class, you can. Writers and visual artists find that the creative process is similar.”
Literary Arts at 1111 Eighth Street CCA’s regular mix of art exhibitions, screenings, and artist talks has been enhanced by an increasing number of literary events. With the growth of the graduate writing program, readings by MFA writers took place over multiple days during the spring 2004 Graduate Exhibition. Writers were included in For Example, the show of recent work by faculty teaching Core studios, on view in December 2003 at Michael Martin Galleries in San Francisco, and in the annual faculty show at the Oliver Art Center on the Oakland campus. Since 2000, the college has hosted the nationally known reading series organized by Small Press Traffic, an independent organization founded in San Francisco in 1974 and now housed at CCA. For more information on events or membership in Small Press Traffic, visit www.sptraffic.org.
Visiting writers who have given talks at the college include novelist Barry Gifford, who appeared in conversation with Juvenal Acosta, associate professor of writing and literature, in February 2004 as part of the CCA Graduate Studies/Wattis Institute Public Lecture Series. Screenings of Lost Highway, Perdita Durango, and Wild at Heart, all based on Gifford books, took place the same week. In the graduate writing program, a Friday seminar series brings current students into contact with visiting writers, Small Press Traffic’s annual Poets’ Theater showcases poets as playwrights, directors, and actors.

editors, and literary agents. Visitors this spring included Elaine Katzenberger, associate director of San Francisco’s landmark independent bookstore, City Lights; Michael Ray, senior editor at Zoetrope: All Story, the literary magazine founded by Francis Ford Coppola; David Daniel, poetry editor of the literary magazine Ploughshares; monologuist Josh Kornbluth; and San Francisco writer and NEA award winner Julie Orringer, author of How to Breathe Underwater. The CCA libraries house a growing collection of innovative literary resources. Recently, the Lannan Foundation generously donated their complete video library of readings and interviews featuring major poets and writers. The videos, which do not circulate, are housed in Meyer Library on the Oakland campus but can be requested for use at Simpson Library in San Francisco. Also at Simpson Library, Small Press Traffic maintains an archive of books and magazines of poetry, prose, and theory from independent presses, as well as chapbooks, broadsides, and other rare literary memorabilia. The materials date from the 1950s to the present and do not circulate.
Literary Journal Debuts Eleven Eleven, CCA’s new literary arts journal, will publish its first issue in spring 2004. The journal is produced and edited by students in the MFA Program in Writing. Eleven Eleven features original and engaging fiction, poetry, essays, interviews, and visual art. The journal will be available at Bay Area bookstores such as Cody’s in Berkeley, and Modern Times and Booksmith in San Francisco. To see work by current MFA in Writing students in a variety of disciplines, check out the online journal Transmission at www.cca.edu/transmission/.

Excerpt from “Wishbones” A short story by Ann Joslin Williams
4
Our mother had come out of her room. She wore nothing but underwear. There was a shirt in her hands. Ribs, sharp and clear, cut around her sides. Her collarbone sliced across to her shoulders like a hanger, connecting the bones of her skinny arms. Her breasts hung empty. She hadn’t seen us. Jeff made a hiccup noise, and she jumped, clutched the shirt to her chest. Then she ran away from us, all knees and hips and elbow Vs. She made it to the other end of the hall and slammed the door. Jeff got to his feet. Neither David nor I moved. We sat still, as though nothing had happened, as though my mother hadn’t just fled down the corridor mostly naked. Hot spiders crept up my back and turned cold on my neck. “I’m sorry,” Jeff said, but I wasn’t sure who he was talking to. “Geez,” he said. “Jesus, Carey. What in the name of . . .” He stared at the bathroom door. There was no light under it. She was in there, in the dark. Jeff tipped his head, listening. He scratched the underside of his chin. Then he said, “Your mother’s going through hard times. You need to take
care of her.” He had one hand on the edge of the table, leaning on it, his fingers spread out, the joints pressed white. “We do,” I said. The words came out so tight that my scalp tingled. I tried to think of what else to say and wished David would help, but he turned away. “Okay,” Jeff said, and put on his hat. “Well, okay, okay.” He poked his glasses straight. “Okay,” he said again, like it was a piece of something stuck in his throat. “Do you need anything next time?” he asked. “Supplies?” We didn’t answer. I was thinking that supplies meant toilet paper and batteries, and I was thinking that next time was a long ways away. There was moisture on Jeff’s forehead, and when he wiped it he knocked the brim of his cap, set it crooked. He didn’t put it right. Then he left, backed out the door and went across the yard. We watched until his truck started, and the headlights came on, sending out yellow shafts full of bugs and moths, suspended in the light.
Ann Joslin Williams is Chair of the MFA Program in Writing. She is a former Wallace Stegner Fellow at Stanford University and a graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. “Wishbones” first appeared in The Missouri Review, Volume XXIV, No. 1.

Joseph Lease’s collections include Human Rights and The Room. Lease’s poem “‘Broken World’ (For James Assatly)” was selected by Robert Creeley for The Best American Poetry 2002. Lease is Associate Professor of Writing and Literature at California College of the Arts. Joseph Lease notes: When I met James Assatly in 1991, he was completing his novel Hejira. By the spring of 1992, when he graduated from Brown with his MFA, James had grown increasingly ill and was living at home with his parents. In 1993 he died in Boston of an AIDS-related illness. In an interview Edmund White, with whom James worked closely at Brown, called Hejira a “remarkable novel . . . As long as we live,” White said, “we’ll remember that book.” I wrote this poem to honor James and his book, and to mourn all the words and worlds that were lost when we lost him. He was one of the smartest, toughest, most gifted people I knew then or have known since. He died on the morning of his thirty-first birthday— March 25, 1993. His novel remains unpublished. Poem and author’s note are reprinted from The Best American Poetry 2002 (Scribner).

Growing a Career in the Arts: Alumni Profiles By Melissa Hutcheson with Erica Olsen
“The MFA is the new MBA,” trumpeted an article in the February 2004 Harvard Business Review. Apparently the business world is waking up to the value of art skills. (We knew their value all along.) In this issue of Glance three recent graduates share how they got their start. Jennavave Barbero is an associate designer at BCBG in New York City. Susie Gelbron and Julie Walker are co-proprietors of Carrot & Stick Press in Oakland.
Jennavave Barbero Born in 1975 in Lodi, CA BFA 2002, Fashion Design Other education: Fashion Design Certificate and Fashion Merchandising Certificate (two-year degrees) Residence: New York, NY Current occupation: Associate designer, BCBG Influences at CCA: Neysa Young, Pauline Howland, Edward Leaman, Jennifer Minniti ... you see where I’m going here?
A former model, Jennavave Barbero always wanted to be involved in the fashion industry. While still a student at CCA, she worked as an assistant to local designer Jean Cacicedo and won an award in 2002 in the first annual Bay Area Fashion Design Scholarship Show, organized by Our Tribe Productions. After graduation the young designer struck out on her own and moved to New York. Jennavave, who found her current job through a friend from church,
cites her spiritual strength as a key factor in her success. At BCBG a typical day begins at 9 AM and ends no earlier than 7 PM. “I source goods, trim, and Jennavave Barbero sketch like crazy,” says Jennavave. As associate designer, she has a myriad responsibilities: merchandise line planning with the design director; maintaining the sample room; making sure the pattern maker and sewers are making samples to the specs; helping with fittings; and overseeing trim and fabric development. And that’s not to mention the paperwork: she tracks all shipping confirmations, packing slips, POs, and invoices. Asked about her favorite memory of CCA, Jennavave’s reply is that of a designer: “The satisfaction I felt as I watched my girls on the runway, showing a year’s worth of work, was unbeatable.”
Julie Walker and Susie Gelbron When Julie Walker and Susie Gelbron met in line during graduate student orientation they got more than financial aid. They found a career. A creative partnership that began with a letterpress printing project for class eventually evolved into Carrot & Stick Press (www.carrotandstickpress.com). The company, founded in 2000 and based in Oakland, CA, produces letterpress stationery—invitations, notecards, and place cards—as well as custom orders that are highly in demand. Their colorful patterns include pink argyle, blue polka dots, and a zebra print—all produced in their Oakland studio. Carrot & Stick’s first project was, appropriately, a birth announcement. The two entrepreneurs juggled custom letterpress orders with other jobs: Julie taught art in public schools and worked at the Gap corporate archives, while Susie ran a summer camp and did web design. Orders came from friends and family, and through word of mouth. Later, they were able to devote themselves to Carrot & Stick fulltime. “After attending a stationery show in New York City, we were flooded with orders,” they say. Today, they run a thriving business that has been featured in publications including Bon Appétit and The New York Times. As Carrot & Stick continues to grow, Julie and Susie face such challenges as quality control, finding a new location that includes retail space, and expanding their product offerings—all while designing new collections inspired by answering very personal questions: what do I want to buy? What am I looking for?

CCA Student Among Finalists in World Trade Center Memorial Competition By Chris Bliss

The last thing fifth-year architecture student Jessica Kmetovic imagined was that her picture would appear in The New York Times. But that’s exactly what happened on November 20, 2003, when it was announced that her team’s proposal, “Garden of Lights,” was selected as one of eight final designs in the World Trade Center Site Memorial Competition. The story began in fall 2002, when Jessica took a leave from CCA to attend Columbia University’s Shape of Two Cities Program: New York/Paris. At the end of the spring semester in Paris, she remained behind with fellow student Sean Corriel and architecture professor Pierre David to work on a submission for the competition. “We wanted to memorialize life, so the first idea that came to us was a garden,” said Jessica. “We then came up with the notion of lights to represent the spirit of each victim.” The street level of the memorial would feature a garden with trees and meadows. Below the surface would be a private room for families of the victims, and below that would be a public space. Natural light from above would connect the levels and fall on “altars” at the lowest level.

The team sent their single board submission to the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation and went back to their respective lives in San Francisco, New York, and Paris. Their design was among 13,683 registrants and 5,201 memorial submissions received from 63 nations. Two weeks into the fall 2003 semester, Jessica got the call. “I really wanted to enter the competition just to be a part of it. I never fathomed that we would make the finals,” said Jessica. Sworn to secrecy, the finalists were flown to New York, put up in a hotel, and given funds for materials to produce more detailed plans and models. In the second round of interviews the judges were demanding, asking questions about access, maintenance, and seasonal concerns. The pace was feverish—designs created at night were sent out for modelmaking the next morning. Although the jury ultimately chose another project, Jessica was thrilled to be part of the process. “Working in the public arena is an amazing experience—you’re pushed and pulled in so many directions.” Will she enter other competitions in the future? “Yes. This wasn’t a contest of personalities, it was a contest of ideas. That’s what appeals to me.”

Donor Profile: Ronald and Anita Wornick CCA trustee Ronald Wornick and his wife, Anita, have been generous donors to the college for many years. In 1996 they provided a substantial gift during the fundraising campaign to help build the San Francisco campus. The Wornick Wood and Furniture Studios attest to the couple’s abiding passion for the field of wood arts. In 1999 they created an endowed annual scholarship for students in CCA’s Wood/Furniture Program. Recently the Wornicks expanded their generosity to the college by giving a gift of $500,000. The gift established the Wornick Distinguished Visiting Professor in Wood Arts endowment fund. The goal of the fund is to bring a distinguished artist to CCA to teach as a visiting professor. The objective of the Wornick professor’s tenure is to enhance and nourish the curriculum in those areas of art and design that use wood as a creative medium for exploration, expression, and aesthetic functionality. The first Wornick visiting professor is Roy McMakin, who is teaching this semester. A Door Meant as Adornment, a major survey of his work, was organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, in 2003. In addition, McMakin has completed numerous architectural, public art, and design commissions, most notably for the J. Paul Getty Museum and the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. His company, Domestic Furniture, is based in Seattle. The CCA community will

be able to view McMakin’s work this fall in the exhibition Baja to Vancouver, organized by the CCA Wattis Institute. Ron commented, “The opportunity to work with the CCA Wood/Furniture Program, Donald Fortescue and his faculty, and the students in particular has been one of the great adventures and privileges of my life. I smile to think of it.” Ron is the retired founder, chairman, and CEO of The Wornick Company, an international food processing firm. He has been a member of CCA’s Board of Trustees since 1992 and its vice chair since 1997. An amateur wood artist himself, Wornick has explored the making of furniture forms and sculpted wood vessels. He and Anita have assembled an impressive collection of wood
objects, some of which were on view in the remarkable exhibition, Expressions in Wood—Masterworks from the Wornick Collection, at the Oakland Museum of California in 1997 before traveling to New York and other U.S. cities. In addition to his activities with the college, Ron also serves on the boards of Copia: The American Center for Wine, Food, and the Arts, the Taube Center for Jewish Studies at Stanford University, The Contemporary Jewish Museum (formerly the Jewish Museum of San Francisco), and Collectors of Wood Art.
Meet the New Trustees Simon J. Blattner, chair of the Board of Trustees, has announced the appointment of three new trustees: Leigh Hudson, Ann Morhauser, and Mary Zlot. Blattner commented, “I’m delighted to welcome Leigh, Ann, and Mary to CCA. They bring a wealth of experience and a high level of commitment and passion to our board.”

Gifts and Grants Throughout the fall and winter months, CCA received many generous donations from alumni and friends. The college is grateful for their involvement and support. Four new scholarships were created to help talented and deserving students. Trustee Lorna Meyer gave $100,000 to establish two scholarships: the Christopher Timothy Cutler Endowed Scholarship and the Frederick W. Farnol and Ellen C. Farnol Endowed Scholarship. The college received another gift of $100,000 from the estate of alumna Albertina Zanzi (1941), creating the Albertina “Nina” Zanzi Endowed Scholarship; this gift was made possible by Ms. Zanzi’s niece, Linda Lotspeich,
and her husband, Steve. And trustee Kent Logan and his wife, Vicki, gave $20,000 to establish the Vicki and Kent Logan Scholarship for Curatorial Practice. Each of these new scholarships plays a key role in supporting promising students in their studies at CCA. The Getty Grant Program awarded CCA’s Curatorial Practice Program a $200,000 grant to bring to campus a diverse and distinguished group of visiting curators and artists to enrich the curriculum. Visiting faculty will include Andrea Fraser, Hans Haacke, Hou Hanru, Sandra Percival, and Benjamin Weil. Several generous gifts were given to support the CCA Annual Fund. Carmen Christensen gave over $100,000 to the Annual Fund. The
LEF Foundation awarded $80,000 to sustain the school’s core operations, and Miranda Leonard gave $10,000 for the same purpose. Over one hundred CCA alumni, parents, and friends generously responded to our year-end appeal for support. As of January 31, 2004, CCA had received more than $13,000 for the Annual Fund and student scholarships. The Center for Art and Public Life received a grant of $63,000 from the Alameda County Office of Education/ U.S. Department of Education in support of professional development for art educators. The Center also received $56,000 from the Nathan Cummings Foundation in support of its Community Student Fellows program and a grant of $50,000 from the Richard and Rhoda Goldman

CCA Students Star in HGTV’S Designer Finals TV producers descended on the San Francisco campus last December to cast CCA interior design and architecture students for Designer Finals, a new series by HGTV (Home and Garden Television). In the series, lucky homeowners get a free room makeover by a student from one of the nation’s top design schools, and students gain valuable real-world experience. CCA students selected for the series were Jeff Barrett, fourth-year architecture student, who designed a kitchen in San Mateo; fifth-year architecture student Chad DeWitt, who designed a home office in Lafayette; Hae Young Lee, fourth-year student in interior design, who designed a guest house in Concord; and Sondra Stoner, thirdyear student in interior design, who designed a children’s playroom in Concord. “There was a huge sense of urgency every day. I worked hard, but it was so rewarding,” says Hae Young. Unlike other home makeover shows, there were no

scary surprises as students met with homeowners beforehand to consider the household’s needs and present their plans. Students then had two days, a $2,000 materials budget, and a small crew of handypersons to work their design magic. “TV is deceptive in that, in reality, things don’t cost $2,000 and don’t happen in two days,” says Chad. “Quality design takes money and time.” The projects brought out students’ resourcefulness. For instance, Chad was able to procure the generous donation of a chair from San Francisco–based company Design Within Reach. With a price tag more than his entire makeover budget, the chair was a big hit with his clients. Designer Finals premieres in summer 2004. HGTV will likely begin airing segments featuring CCA students in early fall. —Kim Lessard, Communications

Interior Design Program Reaccredited Fashion Design Program Accepted by CFDA The Fashion Design Program has been accepted by the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) to participate in their scholarship, design initiative programs, and Best of School award. Our program is one of only fifteen leading fashion programs in the country privileged to be part of one of the fashion industry’s most important organizations. The CFDA is a nonprofit association whose membership consists of more than 250 of America’s foremost fashion designers. CFDA membership is by invitation, and new candidates, including participating educational institutions, are voted in by the board of directors annually. —Jennifer Minniti, Associate Dean
In fall 2003, the Interior Design Program was reaccredited for a six-year term by the Foundation for Interior Design Education Research (FIDER), an international nonprofit organization that accredits postsecondary interior design programs in the United States and Canada. The program received its initial accreditation in 1978 and holds the FIDER standards as the benchmark for its academic rigor. For 2004, DesignIntelligence has ranked the program at number six among the top FIDER-accredited interior design programs in the country. —Anthony Spurlock, Interior Design
Curatorial Practice Welcomes Visiting Artists The MA Program in Curatorial Practice welcomed five curators and artists during spring semester, with the help of generous support the program has received from the Christensen Fund. Raúl Cárdenas of the Tijuana-based artist group Torolab, and Osvaldo Sánchez, the artistic director of InSITE 2005, joined us in February. In April the Mexico-based independent curator Magali Arriola and artist Santiago Sierra met with graduate students. Also in April, Michèle Faguet, director of Espacio La Rebeca in Bogotá, Colombia, and Adriano Pedrosa, an artist, writer, editor, and independent curator based in Brazil, each visited CCA for a week. —Kate Fowle, Curatorial Practice

John Bankston Is First Viola Frey Distinguished Visiting Professor CCA welcomes award-winning artist John Bankston as the first Viola Frey Distinguished Visiting Professor. The Viola Frey Chair in Fine Arts is the first endowment for a visiting artist in the history of the college and was created specifically to bring noted artists from around the world to teach at CCA and share their work with the Bay Area community. Bankston is the recipient of the Joan Mitchell Foundation Grant Program Award, the Fleishhacker Foundation Eureka Fellowship, the Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Grant, and the 2001 Art Council Grant. He also received the 2002 SECA Art Award from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. His work can be seen in the Studio Museum in Harlem in New York City and the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art in Hartford, CT. Bankston received his MFA in painting from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. His work in drawing and painting addresses issues of gender, race, and power. The college thanked the many generous donors of the Viola Frey Chair in Fine Arts and welcomed Bankston at a reception in December 2003. —Advancement Office
In September 2003, AIA San Francisco honored Marc Goldstein, FAIA, with a Special Achievement Award. A distinguished adjunct professor in the CCA Architecture Program, Goldstein was one of three early leaders of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP. Along with fellow design partner Edward Charles “Chuck” Bassett, FAIA, and associate partner Charles Pfister, Goldstein helped define San Francisco’s architectural legacy through landmark buildings, classic interiors, and humanistic urban design. Hulleah Tsinhnahjinnie (‘81) was awarded a 2003 Eiteljorg Fellowship for Native American Fine Art. Tsinhnahjinnie, a photographer and multimedia artist, is Diné/Seminole/ Muscogee. She recently earned an MFA from UC Irvine. Each of the five Eiteljorg fellows, who are selected by an independent jury, receives a $20,000 honorarium to facilitate their continued growth as creative artists.
Several CCA-related titles were cited in the 2003 American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA) Fifty Books/ Fifty Covers competition.
