�Curator s Statement
Last Spring Brian Benedetti, Director of the Fine Arts Fiesta in Wilkes-Barre,
approached me with the opportunity to organize an exhibit of sculpture in conjunction
with this year’s 30th anniversary Fiesta. Since moving to Wilkes-Barre in 1982, 1 had
been interested in the idea of using the River Common as a venue to develop a series
of site-specific sculptures. That location, with the dike dividing the landscape into
foreground and distant background and the awareness of the River in between,
presents intriguing possibilities. After some discussion it was decided that, under the
auspices of the Sordoni Art Gallery, Wilkes University, we would apply to the
Pennsylvania Council on the Arts for a grant to invite six artists to create and install
temporary pieces designed specifically for the River Common or for an alternate
nearby location.
A meeting with Marsha Moss, an independent curator well experienced in the
logistical and bureaucratic complexities of organizing such exhibitions, provided me
with initial direction. Sculpture Source, a slide resource in Washington, D.C.,
supplemented my knowledge of potential participants through their registry, which
located nearly one hundred artists doing work appropriate to our situation.
The artists eventually invited were chosen for a variety of reasons, the
primary of which was my personal response to their previous projects. Since to our
knowledge an exhibit of this nature had never been done in the Wilkes-Barre area,
diversity was also a consideration. John Bromberg would focus on the energy of the
River; Angelo Ciotti would address the area’s historic involvement with coal; Mei-ling
Hom would respond to the past recreational function of the River Common; Steve
Poleskie would create a unique sky piece over Public Square (downtown and adjacent
to the Commons); George Shortess would develop a sound interactive environment
incorporating the Burns Bell Tower on the Wilkes campus and comment on today’s
commuter society; and, finally, Matthew Tanteri would orchestrate a light installation
designed for its location on the bank of the Susquehanna.
The success of the exhibition was based on the fact that each artist, working
with his/her own vocabulary and with an energy and integrity that was communal,
developed an installation or performance that addressed the specific aspects of the site
and provided us with the opportunity to experience our environment in different lights.

The excitement mounts as the date approaches. 1 have been most moved
since the outset by the prospects of the river and how the bank interacts to create
this marvelous vista. Driven by this my proposal is as follows
Directly across from the Gallery amidst the tree,, in a park hkt atmosphere.
1 will construct what I see as a transmitter, twelve feet in circumference. A
pyramid will sit atop bales of hay extending to the perimeter of the cylinder
formed by the bales. The base of the pyramid will be aluminum wr! hold black
line drawings while the top will be plexiglas, to expose object-, within. Protruding
from the base are hundreds of blue sticks stuck into the hay.
The second part of the piece is best viewed from up on
To-.T
behind the transmitter. Towards the water’s edge on the .service road appear three
trees with their root systems exposed and with blue slicks stuck amidst the root .
As you look out into the river, three large blue poles planted in the River bank
stand as guardians poised in tension and movement with the river: on the
opposite bank another group of poles also stands.
“That the waters of the earth can safely lead our pas -.age thr&lt;.mgh the dark
times’’ is the name of the piece.
John Bromberg
February 1990

In conjunction with this piece, a ceremony was held on May 19 as a
collaboration between the artist and Joseph J. Burinsky of Hazleton,
Pennsylvania. This ceremony involved Native American ritual and conveyed respect
for Nature especially as revealed in the many facets of the Susquehanna River.

�In the 1960s Poleskie was a landscape painter, but once he started flying
he found he couldn’t condense his visual perspective into a two-dimentional plane
— no matter how large he made it, it remained flat and less than real. He began
drawing on photographs taken from the air and would then fly his biplane or
Piper Apache in the specific pattern while emitting smoke from the back of the
plane. A reporter who rode with him compared it to being in the ball of a ball
point pen. Recently he has been including events on the ground — music, dance,
etc. — to co-ordinate with his movements in the air. Poleskie has performed his
art all over the world.
Poleskie’s sky piece for Wilkes-Barre (he is a native of nearby Pringle)
centered on Public Square during the Fine Arts Fiesta. Circling the Square
represents the completion of a cycle: Public Square was one of the first places
Poleskie exhibited his work when he was still a student at Wilkes College in 1958.
For this performance he piloted an airplane made in 1958. Circling the Square
had six movements with titles relating to the history of Northeastern Pennsylvania
and especially to the Flood of 1972, which caused significant damage throughout
the Wyoming Valley.

untitled [Cabanas!
Location: Wilkes-Barre River common
The sculpture situated on the levee by the Susquehanna is a line of
rhythmical, blocky, picket shaped forms. These oversized picket forms (8' high x
3 ' wide x 3 ' deep each) are in part my response to the trim tidiness of WilkesBarre and a visual play with the levee waterfront site suggesting a row of cabana­
like beach structures. On the levee the structure is a walk-through space forming
an alternately covered and open arcade of dappled light filtered through walls of
plastic construction fencing. The structure is built of orange construction netting
and 2" x 2" lumber painted fluorescent orange.
My perceptual game will hopefully be heightened as the setting sun
illuminates and intensifies the orange netting and the fluorescent painted elements

�Angelo Ciottl
Tintern Abbey

Location: Wilkes-Barre River common

In an article for the journal International Sculpture Angelo Ciotti is
quoted as describing his pieces as “functional earthworks,” whose purpose is to
"bring life back to a dead earth.” He is inspired in his work by the prehistoric
shapes of Stone Age man and the oriental emphasis on simple positive and
negative forms, or forces, interacting. The artist states, “I want to see a
sculptural style that is living, not inert.”
Tintern Abbey was designed to sit near the dike of the Susquehanna across
from the Dorothy Dickson Darte Center where the River bends and creates a
dramatic vista. It is a contemplative piece — the viewer is able to sit within it —
based on our coal legacy. The title, Tintern Abbey, is taken from the Welsh
milage located at the end of a Roman road, where the Emperor Hadrian built the
first coal mines. This interpretation of a Gothic abbey is, in the artist’s words,
“a place to rest and ponder upon nature’s rejuvenation of life.” Both theme and
content are relevant to our experience in Wilkes-Barre.

Art is experience. Art is perception. Art is the process of our nervous
systems The essence of art is in particular kinds of human perception, I make
physical art objects and sounds that can be appreciated either as playful art
works or as reflections on the nature of perception and art. The installation is
designed to create art within the individual viewer that can raise questions about
art and about social concerns as we experience the world around us. The objects
and messages around the base of the tower provide visual commentary on a
mobile, consumer-oriented society as a loose collection of ideas.
The sounds generated within the installation stimulate some interactive
aspects of the human nervous system, the system which is essential to our
experience as human perceivers. They are computer-generated sounds and
computer-modified radio sounds. The particular temporal pattern is influenced
by the ways in which viewers move and interact with the sensors that provide the
input to the small computers controlling the sounds.
We move as we absorb the images of the space and the tower, generating
the sound patterns which are suggestive of our neural aesthetic responses as
cycles of interacting nervous systems contemplating the environment modified by
human intrusions. In this way the installation becomes a metaphor for the
perception of the altered environment.
Structure is very important for me, particularly the isomorphism in the
structure of the nervous system and the structure of my art works. For the
expression of this kind of correspondence, the computer is an ideal tool, both for
implementing particular ideas and for conceptualizing the relationships between
neural networks, perceptions and art experiences. The computer and, by extension,
the tower itself, becomes a metaphor for an interacting primitive nervous system
that generates sound responses. The process is analogous to the way our own
nervous system responds. Behind this installation is my hope that some viewers
and listeners will appreciate esthetically the idea that neural activity is our art
experience.

Th® Wilkes-Barre Transmissometer or Big yy
Location: Wilkes-Barre River common
This light sculpture consisted of 12 sky pointing searchlights placed at
land s edge along the curve of the Susquehanna River. Responding to local
atmospheric conditions a grouping of four cloud-bound light columns crossed
40' above the ground to form a “Big W” in their center.
The installation was best viewed along the dike area from late sunset into
the evening hours. It was designed to make visible the active environmental
conditions of moisture and air mass found along the riverbank. It materialized
and dematerialized while mingling with the natural beauty of the landscape.
Watching it over a period of time allowed heightened observation of subtle
changes in atmosphere — variations caused by clouds passing overhead, a mist
creeping over the dike. Positioned on the border where air, earth and water meet,
light made visible their subtle interaction.

A Short History of the Work or W is for Wilkes-Barre but What’s a
Transmissometer?
Catching the last bus heading back from Wilkes-Barre to New York City
— sorting through a collection of sites seen that day — one image returned
repeatedly in my memory. Walking towards the Susquehanna River dike, I
discovered the thin line separating earth and sky opened — to reveal the drama
of a vista, the boundaries of which gave the Susquehanna’s winding progress a
careful consideration.
After working through several project ideas I returned to this site with a
plan to create a light structure that would define an edge along the riverside and
extend it upward into the night sky. In the final round of lights tested to achieve
this visual effect I was left with two lamps — both found at your local airport.
The runner up: the headlights of a Boeing jet. It was bright, but a little too wide
and fuzzy at the edge. The winner: a lamp with the word “transmissometer’’
stamped on the back of it.
In my dictionary I read: “transmissometer” — an instrument that
measures the visibility or the capability of the air to transmit light”. Speaking to
the lamp’s manufacturer, I learned it was part of a ceilometer as used at your
local airport to determine the height of the cloud ceiling above the earth. It seems
by shining these lights up, and visually determining where the spot of light meets
the cloud, the height can be figured by triangulation. Another manufacturer et
me in on their lesser known use — in lighting the torch of the Statue o i ertj.
In my outdoor tests the lamps produced the narrow beam I desired. They a so
lent a conceptual basis to develop the idea of a large scale, W-shape
transmissometer that would allow the viewer a visual measure of an activi y
integral to the riverfront environment.
The W, of course, is for Wilkes-Barre.

�Acknowledgements
Any exhibition requires the talents of many people, but with site-specific
sculpture the numbers become legion. We were gratified by the many positive
responses we received to our requests tor help, even though many of our needs
were unusual and our product was a challenging form of outdoor art. In this
year of public scandal about the arts we were pleasantly surprised to find our
regional audiences willing and able to lend a hand and embrace our goals.
We are grateful to all who made this exhibition possible, especially the
artists who participated and so touched our lives in a unique and lasting way.
Kevin O’Toole accepted his job as guest curator with a professionalism and
diligence which resulted in a harmoniously divergent group of artists and pieces.
Marsha Moss, an independent curator, and Andrew Zorn, Director of Sculpture
Source in Washington, D.C., were helpful in lending advice and information during
the formative stages. Annie Bohlin lent her usual uncanny sensibility to the
design of this catalog and the map which served as guide to our visitor-. David
Stevens of the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts was enthusiastic and encouraging.
Richard Maslow of the Maslow Collection of Contemporary Ar: readily lent
support for an educational artists’ symposium in conjunction with the exhibition.
Brian Benedetti offered the safe umbrella of the Fine Arts Fiesta to help with
security, insurance, and publicity. The Wilkes-Barre City offices under the direction
of Mayor Lee Namey were accommodating and supportive — special thanks go
to Dianna Gull. Ken Anderson, Manager of Forestry Operations at Pennsylvania
Gas and Water, went the extra mile for us.
At Wilkes University, Professor of Art Herbert Simon permitted the use
of his sculpture studio for our guest artists. Ray Woods and Harry Miller, along
with the ABM crew of Wilkes University under the direction of Gabe Sidonio
and John Ruda, offered willing and much needed support to the installation and
dismantling of the sculptures. The crew teams of both Wilkes University and
mg s College stood ready to help with the river ceremony.
Special attention should be given to those who gave in-kind support and
are iste on a separate page in this catalog. To these, and to the manv
supporters who cannot be named, we extend our thanks.
