ART IS FEATURED IN COMMUNITY FOCUS SPACE PROGRAM AT JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT
SANTA ANA, Calif. – A selection of paintings by Laguna Beach artist Mark Jacobucci will be on display through January 30, 2012 in the Thomas F. Riley Terminal as part of John Wayne Airport’s Community Focus Space Program. His artwork can be seen on the departure (upper) level near the security screening areas and on the arrival (lower) level near baggage carousels 1 and 4.
Jacobucci’s paintings are primarily landscapes: beaches, coastlines and rural scenes. “Often I try to see and paint the beauty in an ordinary everyday scene, such as an alleyway or a street intersection,” said Jacobucci.
The JWA exhibition will feature seven oil paintings depicting playing, working and driving around in Orange County.
Known for using vibrant colors, large brushstrokes and plein air methods, Jacobucci gives a contemporary flair to his paintings. He studied painting in high school on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, attended Brandeis University for his Bachelors of Arts Degree and the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, earning a Master’s of Liberal Arts Degree (MLA).
After receiving his MLA in Landscape Architecture in 1984, Jacobucci came to California the following year to work in the profession at an internationally acclaimed design firm in Laguna Beach. He continued to paint and sketch and took painting classes at the Laguna College of Art.
Jacobucci’s work is displayed in various exhibitions including the Festival of Arts in Laguna Beach since 2001, and is held by numerous private collectors and corporations. Corporate collectors include: The Hyatt Hotels, Irvine Company, Irvine Apartment Communities, Peralta Partners, McDermott Will & Emery, Transtar, Corrigan Law, Coffee Architects, Broadcom, and Union Bank.

"I didn't say anything."

"How can you say such a thing?"

"I'm not going through this again."

"What do you mean?"

"All this -- denial. I'm done. I'm just going to say exactly what happened as I remember it."

"It never happened!"

"The reason I know it happened is that I renember it. I was eight years old. My brother was twelve years old. I was able to recover the date because I remember at some point in the week preceding the event, our father for some reason had told us, I'm going to be speaking at the Unitarian Church this Sunday at 11:00. It did not seem weird to me at the time, because he was always out of the house anyway. Plus all he used to when he was home was harangue me, so good."

"You lie."

"In fact, I remember thinking, it made sense that he would get something going on Sundays, because that was the only time he was ever even around anymore. Weekdays he was working, of course, and weeknights he was always at one of his many, many important community activities."

"You are delusional."

"Then, I found this article, and it all ...

"I have a thesis. My thesis is: In any woman's life, having children would have to be the most significant event. So, in my mother's story -- "

"Her family wasn't really any different from any of the other families."

"Yes."

"In what way?"

"She and her husband were both very active in community affairs. Both her children went to school."

"What else?"

"They were both boys?"

"Anything else?"

"No. That's it."

"So you said, that one way in which your mother's family wasn't really any different from any of the other families, was that she and her husband were both very active in community affairs. Can you tell me a little more about that?"

"Oh, sure. There was always something going on. Cub Scouts, she was like Den Mother of her older son's Cub Scout Pack. Pack 54. Plus the Comedy Club. Plus I'm pretty sure, she was involved in the kindergarten. She and her husband both. And politics. It was the Sixties."

"Just normal 60's Mom stuff."

"In any case, it's time to forget the past."
