Jack Archibald, Paradigm Shift
Public Art Collection
About the Collection
In 1985, the Legislature passed the Utah Percent-for-Art Act, which designates that 1% of construction costs (capped at $200,000) of new and/or renovated state public buildings is added to the project for the purpose of commissioning, maintaining, and conserving site-specific art at, on, or in the facility. UA&M administers the program to assist and coordinate public art projects with local communities statewide.

Dynamic Landscape
Tooza Design
2020
Sculpture
Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Services
Saratoga Springs
Dynamic Landscape was commissioned for the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Services Saratoga Springs location in 2020. Tooza Design is a creative partnership between Shelley and Rob Beishline. Founded in 1998, their multi-disciplinary design studio focuses on large-scale sculptural installations, environmental graphics, and graphic design. According to Tooza Design, the form of Dynamic Landscape emulates the Wasatch range as seen from Saratoga Springs. Just as the colors of the mountains appear to change with the different light of day, and through different seasons, the art changes color as well. This artwork was created to complement the building's architecture and capture the attention of patrons as they enter.
