    ARTWALKING RADIO 12-12-2024 - with guests Christopher Regan and Jerome Gastaldi
    Dec 13 2024
    Message from Leah Vasquez...For December's program, "Energy Used Well" we feature two diverse perspectives from two individuals, Christopher Regan and Jerome Gastaldi as we explore "Nature Nurturing Culture". Please join us as we share the diversity of Laguna Beach and celebrate its culture.

    Christopher Regan - Laguna County Water District Assistant General Manager strives to keep Laguna's residents thinking about water conservation and its impact on our lives and our environment. He is highly knowledgeable about Laguna's water history and how residents before the district's formation in 1925 had to pump water from a well. He will also discuss water education, landscape, and conservation.

    Jerome Gastaldi / aka: Robert Abbott - In his ninth decade he has the exuberance and energy to continue producing art, experimenting with conceptual interactive videos, and reshaping landscapes with open space projects related to his sculpture. Currently exhibiting "Finding Light" at Seven Degrees

    He founded the Modern Art Museum in Santa Ana, CA. Hosting exhibitions included paintings by David Hockney, Gerhard Richter, Rufino Tamayo, etc., and as director for the FACT gallery in Laguna Beach displaying local and international artists. He has authored: Keep an Eye on Your Soul and Art & Reality. Today Gastaldi focuses much of his time on large-scale commissions for industry public buildings parks and resorts. His work is included in museum collections in America and Asia. A quote tells us much about his philosophy and practice: "The exercise of analyzing fresh ideas of younger artists and studying the works of modern masters is a source of intellectual and visual stimulation that causes me to react."
