September 16, 2011 (New York) — President Barack Obama has appointed Teresita Fernández, a MacArthur Award winning visual artist, to serve on the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, a federal panel that advises the President, Congress and governmental agencies on national matters of design and aesthetics. Fernández lives and works in New York and is represented by Lehmann Maupin Gallery.
Members of the arts panel play a key role in shaping Washington’s architecture by approving the site and design of national memorials and museums; advise the U.S. Mint on the design of coins and medals; and administer the National Capital Arts and Cultural Affairs program, which benefits non-profit cultural entities that provide arts programming in Washington. Seven commissioners appointed by the President serve four-year terms.
Past members have included architects, landscape architects and artists, including Daniel Chester French who sculpted the statue of Abraham Lincoln at the Lincoln Memorial and landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr., whose projects include the National Mall, Jefferson Memorial and the White House grounds.

Galerie Pfriem at SCAD Lacoste
Rue Saint-Trophime
84480 Lacoste, France
The SCAD exhibitions department presents a site-specific sculpture by acclaimed artist Teresita Fernández. A continuation of her “Eruption” series and inspired in part by the surroundings of Provence, this work engages the viewer in an active exploration of surface and space. Nuances reveal themselves in her alluring use of materials-in this case a vast plane covered in glass beads that shimmer and reflect the painted surface just beneath. In a subtle yet evocative experience, gallery visitors become immersed in a field of color, form and texture suggestive of topography and natural phenomena.

Sculptor Teresita Fernández creates work in response to nature. Reminiscent of clouds, rainstorms, waterfalls, and stars in the night sky, Fernández’s mercurial forms shimmer, float, and undulate before our eyes. The artist is interested in generating an intimate experience with each of her installations. As she has put it, “What I’m after is a lingering, ephemeral engagement. Slow, quiet, and with enough depth kinesthetically to be recalled by the viewer after the work is no longer in front of them.”
