Our hometown gal and Jingletown based resident, Tracey Snelling has done it again! She won the New York based Foundwork Artist Prize, an annual juried award to recognize outstanding practice by contemporary artists. As honoree, she will receive an unrestricted USD 10,000 grant and studio visits with each of the distinguished curators, gallerists, and artists on Foundwork’s 2020 jury.
Although it's never stated, I've no doubt Lost Year Motel references the horrid pandemic that has destroyed so many lives this year and revealed the inadequacies of our government, COVID-19!
The jury for the 2020 Foundwork Artist Prize included esteemed curators, gallerists, and artists based in Berlin, Omaha, Los Angeles, Tulsa, and Mexico City:
Rachel Adams, Chief Curator and Director of Programs, Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts
Anat Ebgi, Owner and Director, Anat Ebgi Gallery
Natasha Ginwala, Artistic Director, 13th Gwangju Biennale; Associate Curator, Gropius Bau
Kalup Linzy, performance and video artist
Humberto Moro Deputy Director and Senior Curator, El Museo Tamayo; Adjunct Curator, SCAD Museum of Art
Michael Ruiz, Founder and Managing Director, Future Gallery
Foundwork was established by Adam Yokell, a former Brooklyn gallerist, after experiencing the limitations that artists and exhibitors face trying to find and connect with one another. Foundwork currently features artists in more than thirty countries, including self-taught artists together with those from academic studio backgrounds.
Foundwork hosts programs including their Guest Curators program, ‘Dialogues’ interview series and the Foundwork Artist Prize.

Her work Lost Year Motel was presented for the first time in Verona, Italy, in the spaces of the Studio la Città on the occasion of the exhibition La Musée 2, which ended on 21 November 2020.
Foundwork statement:
“We’re thrilled to honor Tracey Snelling, whose practice has the capacity to connect with many communities around the world, and speaks about the turbulence of urban anxiety and the extenuating living conditions experimented by many,” says juror Humberto Moro. “In the midst of an art world which is increasingly sanitized, it’s fundamental to highlight the practices—like Snelling’s—that deal with these subjects from a generous and empathic point of view.”
“Tracey makes us reconsider the relationship between identity and place—the way we so often project narratives onto one another based on the environments we’re used to,” says Adam Yokell, Foundwork’s Director. “We’re thrilled to help propel her socially resonant work during these polarized times.”

Tracey Snelling ~ Asphault Jungle
photos by Styrous®
Last night the exhibition, Asphault Jungle, featuring the multimedia sculptures of Tracey Snelling opened at the Jules Maeght Gallery (link below).
The installations are representative of life around us, shops of various
kinds, apartments, porn shops, convenience stores, motels, brothels,
etc., almost all set in a slum environment and all done in miniature
scale. The works contain video, photos, neon signs and whatever she can get her hands on.
The one piece that is not similar to the rest of the work is Drift which is almost life-size and idylic; until you look at it closely.

characters, themes, and metaphors. Artists include: Michael Arcega,
Julia Goodman, Dina Goldstein, Andy Diaz Hope and Laurel Roth Hope, Vera
Iliatova, David Kasprzak, Mads Lynnerup, Elisabeth Higgins O’Connor,

Tracey Snelling ~ Selling It on Market Street
iPhone photos by Styrous®
Tracey Snelling has had her series, ”Best Sellers", featured in an art in public places project in the Downtown section of San Francisco. The posters are on the bus stop kiosks along Market Street from the Embarcadero to 8th street. I took the walk today to photograph them. Only found 4 in the series of 6, unfortunately, and I got reflections in the glass in a couple. They would have looked better at night but that's the way it goes.
Tracey Snelling’s Art on Market Street Kiosk Poster Series, Best Sellers, is a response to the changes occurring in San Francisco’s physical and cultural landscape. The posters offer idealistic visions of Market Street that combine cherished aspects from the past with the new and innovative ideas that are reshaping the City’s identity. They will be up from October 28, 2016 to February 13, 2017.
Tracey Snelling ~ Hetoic, ”Best Sellers" series.
Tracey Snelling ~ Daring, ”Best Sellers" series.
Tracey Snelling ~ Radical, ”Best Sellers" series.
The Art on Market Street Posters are for sale for $50 each. There are a limited number of posters available for sale.
One can browse the on-line archive
to view the posters and then contact Justine Topfer at (415) 252-2584
or justine.topfer@sfgov.org about availability. The posters are 6 feet
high by 4 feet wide and laminated on both sides. All the funds collected
from the sale of the Market Street posters go back into the Market
Street Program.
The Art on Market Street Poster Series is commissioned by the San Francisco Arts Commission (sfac) with funding from the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency.
Great work, Tracey!
