Governor's Office - Olympia, WA - USA
Photo: ©2011 Kathleen McHughThese works were temporarily installed at sites of memorable political controversy
over public art. The Senate Chambers and Governor's door function as a symbolic
equivalent of Luther's historical action of tacking 95 theses on church doors demanding reformation: The installation on government doors as a thesis on reformation
in the public art process. (Kathleen McHugh)

Bureaucrats (both public and private) cloister behind closed doors while making
decisions about art. Unfortunately, political factions are a reality of culture and those
in powerful positions (governmental, academic, curatorial or commercial) determine whether an artist is worthy of selection and support. Kathleen McHugh's installations (#45 and #96) evoke concerns about the selection process utilized by bureaucratic
art committees and is a commentary on their effectiveness at fulfilling the role of
cultural stewards. (Gary A. Bibb)
