Colpa Press will take charge of printing our expanded-format publication on their amazing Risograph, allowing us to use colored ink on colored paper to our hearts’ content. Takeaway #4 will feature essays by Stacy Martin ...

‘The Cliff House’ Documentary at Balboa Theatre
For those of you who had your appetite for all things Lands End-related whetted by our last Field Trip (or for those you who missed that fantastic outing), never fear!

DREAM SITE: Stairwell’s at Aquatic Park
What if the next Stairwell’s show was in one these 2 circular concession stand/restroom structures at Aquatic Park? There’s quite a bit of history here–one of the largest WPA projects in the 20s, site of the Maritime Museum since the late 50s, much adored swimming spot (despite the frigid temps of the SF Bay), and ...

Walking and Listening: Podcasts
Hello, my name is Sarah and I’m a podcast listener. While binging on audio, I realized that by some cosmic alignment two of my very favorite programs featured Stairwell’s-appropriate episodes this week. On the locally-produced 99% Invisible, host Roman Mars and producer Sam Greenspan met with stair-aficionado Charles Fleming (author of our Field Trip #3 ...

Birds & Devils: Our Next Exhibition Site
We took a trip across the bridge to Oakland’s Fruitvale neighborhood to check in on the location of our next exhibition (set to open June 1). Lucky for us the lovely resident just moved into this live/work space recently and still has a lot to unpack. It was great to get a glimpse inside some ...

Some Stairs: Part II (Leading Stairs)
[This is the second in a series of posts by Joy Drury Cox. You can read Part I here.] A lot of my work deals with standard forms. I collect paper ephemera like guest checks and job applications.

DISPATCH FROM LA: Missing Stairs
Taking a brief weekend away from the Bay Area, I flew down to Los Angeles for a few excellent reasons: a) the LA Art Book Fair and the wonderful team at Colpa; b) a dear friend‘s installation at Calarts; and c) another dear friend‘s opening at Commonwealth & Council. Commonwealth & Council is run by ...

Living Upstairs
Until I moved to Brooklyn in the summer of 2007, I had never lived above street level. I don’t count the one summer I spent in a garret room in Providence, recovering from a break-up by knocking my head against the rafters. And I don’t count that semester I spent in a Dublin dorm room, emerging ...

Stairs in the Dark
The staircase leading to the upstairs room in the back of the Hideout at Dalva, as seen peripherally. Delicious fancy cocktails and some subtle stair action. What’s not to like? [CL]

Portable Ramp at the Piers
I spotted this portable ramp on the Embarcadero while touring the new Exploratorium buildings at Piers 15/17 recently. I don’t have much to say about the thing really, but just wanted to note its ‘understated gracefulness’ as a sculptural object (ha!), especially when it’s not being used to attach anything to the pier. There is ...

not enough data: Proposal for Stairwell Renovation
As part of the artist talk and reading for A WELL STIRS on December 2, Stairwell’s Takeaway #3 contributor Tom Comitta created A Proposal for the Partial Renovation of the Main Stairwell at 8 Samoset using excerpts from found stair permit applications.

Download a PDF copy of Stairwell’s Takeaway Issue 3!
For our third Takeaway issue, we asked three writers to respond to a variety of prompts inspired by the work in A WELL STIRS. Emma Spertus’ stairwell posters gave way to Dana Goldberg’s “La Vie Bohème 1991″ (a rumination on the front-page poster). Christine Peterson’s intervention into the underside of the stairs yielded Susannah Mager’s ...

DIRECTIONS FOR TONIGHT!
“How do I get to 8 Samoset Street?” you may ask. If you’re traveling by hot air balloon, you’re on your own.

Please join us this Friday, November 16, from 6-9pm for the opening reception of A ...

Some Stairs: Part I
How does one meet a staircase? My first response is negligently. Staircases incite an immediacy to respond that must tap into some basic human desire to rise or perhaps to conquer. We move forward, lacking knowledge of the history of the thing before us, comforted by its repetition of elements. One, two, three. Each stair ...

The Second Longest Escalator in Nebraska
It is probably no accident that those lulls in a cross-country road trip, when eager camaraderie and ingenious mix tapes give way to bleary-eyed silence and a car stereo auto-cycling through various colors of radio snow, seem to coincide with the appearance of billboards trumpeting the imminent appearance of some roadside attraction sure to cure ...

PAUSES: Bruce Nauman’s Staircase at Oliver Ranch
In a recent quest for inspiration, I found myself revisiting PBS’s Art21 series. I was pleasantly surprised by the interview with Bruce Nauman, particularly a brief segment regarding his Staircase project for the Oliver Collection in Northern California. The piece is an installation of a staircase built into the hillside of a private property. ...

Christine M. Peterson: Light in the dark
Christine works with a variety of light-based media, from clamp lights to slide projectors to reflective tape, highlighting the mechanics rather than the subject. This leads to lensless slide projections — soft unfocused conglomerations of color and vague shapes — and emphatic lighting situations, as if a posse of clamp lights are jostling for space. Her ...

A WELL STIRS: Nov 16-Dec 2
Save the date! Our next exhibition, A WELL STIRS, opens Friday, November 16 and will feature new site-specific works by Aaron Finnis, Christine M. Peterson, and Emma Spertus.

The Winchester Mystery House is a mansion located in San Jose, California.

FIELD TRIP #2: Photographs and PDF handout
The second Stairwell’s Field Trip was a smashing success. After meeting (appropriately) on the steps to the Student Union, Spot the Octopus led us around the UC Berkeley campus, performing songs and leading us in a raucous noisemaking session at the base of the Kroeber Hall stairwell. After a picnic lunch outside the Berkeley Art Museum, artist ...

LOS ANGELES: Angels Flight
A short time ago, I spent a weekend in Los Angeles, visiting my parents and celebrating a friend’s inclusion in a great group show at the Highland Park gallery Public Fiction.

“WATERFALL ON LAKE MARGIN NOVEL FEATURE”
The Cleveland Cascade is not a dance move common in the state of Ohio. Rather, it is an outdoor Oakland stairway disguised as a park, or vice versa, that was created to provide a small taste of Italy right in the center of Oakland at the edge of Lake Merritt. It was originally made possible ...

FORT POINT: Stairs to Safety
Fort Point (built in 1861) to defend the Union army and California’s gold from outsiders, never saw any military action. There are three great stairwells in the fort which allow for passage between its three levels. Huge granite wedge-shaped slabs are stacked upon each other tongue and groove style and spiraled up. This construction is ...

STAIRS AT SHOWS: Sharon Van Etten knows what’s up
I recently had the chance to see Sharon Van Etten play (second time this year!) at the Rickshaw Stop here in SF and was pleasantly surprised (ok, actually I was exceedingly thrilled) that one of her spooky video backdrops included some stairs. I’m not sure of the source for this piece exactly but I’m glad ...

CALDER YATES: Viewer participation and unexpected outcomes
The second artist in “House Show” is current CCA MFA/MA student Calder Yates. Calder and I met six years ago in the appropriately-named Los Angeles all-ages club The Smell, reconnecting a year or so later in Brooklyn. Back in those days, his was making complicated works on paper — abstracted representations of employees within governmental structures. ...

THE RULES OF STAIRS: Poison arrows, crystals, & more
I have to admit that I’m not really a subscriber of Feng Shui. It seems to employ a threatening kind of reasoning: if you don’t make (at times, drastic) changes to the physical arrangement of your immediate surroundings you’ll be ‘punished’ with a loss of energy or health or wealth or whatnot. Maybe I’m being ...

MATT KENNEDY: Jumping (2010)

OUTER SUNSET SITE VISIT: Carville Annex
We recently went on a site visit to the location of Exhibition #2 with some of the artists who will be making work for the show.

KIDS ON A RAMP: Low tide on the Marina Green
I pass this spot every morning on my way to work and one day these kids demonstrated that it doesn’t go entirely unused. Apparently the “inclined plane” is a “simple machine” with a “mechanical advantage” (thanks, Internet). Mostly I just like how it’s ambiguous as to whether this would be considered an “on ramp” or ...

FIELD TRIP #1: Pics from our first trip and a handout PDF
Our recent first Field Trip was amazingly fun. We visited 1000 Van Ness, former site of Don Lee’s Cadillac Showroom, today home to an AMC multiplex and twelve beautiful escalators.

Copies of Stairs: New work by Margo Woloweic
Bay Area artist Margo Woloweic is working on an exciting new project that features stair-related pieces made out of sewn tissue paper. Woloweic’s “copies” of entranceways and front porches of homes are created by using Google street view to approximate the ratios of stair structures in other cities, rather than through direct on-site observation. The resulting floor ...

World’s Coolest Staircases
Is everyone thinking about stairs right now? We’ve tapped into some sort of zeitgeist, that’s for sure. An article in last month’s Travel + Leisure magazine showcased the “World’s Coolest Staircases.” I quote: While staircases are fundamentally a means to get from one point to another, they become cool—and worth seeking out—when the form is ...

Stairs in film: A Matter of Life and Death/Stairway to Heaven
I recently stumbled upon an amazing romantic fantasy film from 1946 called Stairway to Heaven (also known by its original title: A Matter of Life and Death) at the Castro Theatre.
