Pablo Picasso works from the Musee National
Picasso at the de Young will take us through 30 years
of his painting career. He passed through six periods:
Blue, Rose, Expressionist, Cubism, Neoclassicism, and
Surrealism. Throughout his life, the prolific Picasso
continued to work in various styles, often combining
influences, vocabularies, and modes of expression in a
single work of art. On his passing, it was discovered
he owned nine villas. Each of these had been closed
and not used, but were full of paintings. The family
thought they had discovered great treasuries of art
works completed by other artists of his time. In fact, he
would duplicate the great works of other artists to un-
derstand their process. He remained both presciently
avant-garde, antici-
pating and leading
the work of the fu-
ture artists, and
highly individualis-
tic. His body of work
is unequalled in the
modern era.
The Legion of
Honor will be pre-
senting the collection

What is a face, really? Its own
photo? Its make-up? Or is it a
face as painted by such or such
painter? That which is in front?
Inside? Behind? And the rest?
Doesn't everyone look at him-
self in his own particular way?
Deformations simply do not ex-
ist.
~Pablo Picasso
Board NotesBoard NotesBoard NotesBoard Notes
The Shasta County Arts Coun-
cil is focused on the process of build-
ing an involved board. We are looking
for people who compliment each
other’s talents and can become contrib-
uting members of the board and an
organization committed to enhancing
the community in which we live
through the Arts.
We need people who can par-
ticipate in the establishment of long
term goals and a strategic planning
process and represent the Arts Council
as a positive in the commu-Page 4
nity. It will mean attending board meet-
ings and trainings, and serving on at
least one committee, and participating in
our fundraising process. If you are inter-
ested, please contact us at 241-7320 or
We are also in the process of re-
vising our contracts for projects, pro-
grams, and performances. And we truly
appreciate the participation and patience
of all the people involved in this process.
We are grateful for all of your contribu-
tions over the years to the Redding com-
munity.
Building a Great Future
Picasso Cont.Picasso Cont.Picasso Cont.Picasso Cont. Dutch and Flemish Masterworks.
Approximately, 60 faultless paint-
ings will become a visual feast that
reveals the prosperous society and
productive landscape that charac-
terized Holland during its Golden
Age. We will be viewing the works
of Rembrandt van Rijn, Frans Hals,
Hans Bols and Paulus Potter among
many other accomplished painters
of this period.
Also on exhibit at this time
in the Bowles Gallery at the Legion,
will be ceramic pieces created by
Picasso. After a visit to the Madoura
ceramic workshop in Vallauris,
France in 1946, he was inspired to
create ceramics prolifically for the
next 18 years. He produced these as
non-functional art objects which in-
cluded decorated vases and bird
vessels as well as two dimensional
tiles.
We are fortunate to have the
opportunity to view these amaz-
ingly contrasted periods, styles and
cultures. We hope you can join us in
August for this experience.

The Natural StepThe Natural StepThe Natural StepThe Natural Step
The Shasta College Art Club
and the Shasta County Arts Council are
proud to present The Natural Step. It
has been crafted under the theme of
natural form and features many tal-
ented people from a wide span of back-
grounds and life experiences.
The Natural Step features the
works of sculptors, painters, cerami-
cists, carvers, metal workers, illustra-
tors, and street artists . It’s a great place
for many different minds to get to-
gether on singular projects to expand
and form friendships in such a competi-
tive field.
The Art Club reformed in the
fall semester of 2010. Since then its
members have received experience and
learning from real-world art experi-
ences at Turtle Bay's exhibits, such as
Forged by Fire, The West Coast Bi-
Annual Show, and just recently Gros-
sology. Another source of real-world
experience comes from the Art Gallery
at Shasta College; the official headquar-
ters of many art club members. Mem-
bers are asked to participate in many

Suppose you’re an attractive high
school girl and you’re not only a mem-
ber of a large and unique family but
your father is, in fact, one of the great
pioneers of industrial efficiency. Then
suppose he decides, for no apparent
reason, to apply his unorthodox meth-
ods to you and to the rest of your big
family. The results are terribly embar-
rassing, funny and—it must be admit-
ted—extremely effective!

Chris Isaak
Throughout his impressive recording
career, Chris Isaak has artfully ex-
plored the good, the bad and the ugly
sides of love. He's done so with an
abiding respect for popular music's
past, but at the same time with a clear
passion for the here and now. After
two critically distinguished albums,
Isaak's rockabilly roots and velvet
voice broke through in 1995 with
Heart Shaped World and the interna-
tional mega-hit Wicked Game. His lat-
est album, Mr. Lucky, has again been
critically lauded and features a song
cycle that perfectly balances the ecstasy
of great romance with the agony of
pure heartbreak.

Support the Arts
Wayne Thiebaud, a Califor-
nia painter, first received acclaim in
the early 1960s with his paintings of
confections like ice cream cones,
cakes and soups in thickly textured,
bright colors. In the early 1990s,
Thiebaud (pronounced “TEE-boh”)
created a piece of art for the common
Californian: Coastline, more com-
monly known as the California Arts
License Plate.
Anyone who owns a car can
get the Arts License Plate by order-
ing online from the Department of
Motor Vehicles at www.dmv.ca.gov.
Fees are $50 for a standard plate ($40
renewal) and $98 for a personalized
plate ($78 renewal).
Those drivers who
love the iconic image of Thiebaud's
Coastline for their car also know that
their purchase goes towards advanc-
ing the arts and creativity for Califor-
nia's children. Approximately 60
percent of the California Arts Coun-
cil budget comes from sales and re-
newals of the Arts License Plate.
More information is available
through the California Arts Council's
website at www.cac.ca.gov.
