Central Coast Modern / Museum of Ventura County
California Cool: Mid-century Modernism on the Central Coast opened last Friday at the Museum of Ventura County. Here are just a few pics. I'll do a more in-depth post later.
Ceramic sculpture by Santa Barbara-based artist Michael Arntz, on loan from The Landing.
Mosaic by Evelyn Ackerman, collection of Laura Ackerman. Not only did the Ackermans have a long history collaborating with Central Coast-based companies Panelcarve and Forms + Surfaces, Evelyn designed a mural in Santa Barbara (below).
Sea, Land, and Sky (1957) by Evelyn, for a Louis Mazzeti office building on Victoria Street in Santa Barbara.
Screen salvaged from a Rodney Walker house in Ojai that was the victim of an insensitive remodel. The screen is from the collection of Eric Huff. Architecture is a major component of the exhibition.
The opening was a sell out.
