The new year of 2013 is off to a very fast start for
the Oceanside Museum of Art! After only several
months as the museum’s director, I am very excited
about the new exhibitions, programs, partnerships
and opportunities that are developing for OMA
members and art patrons throughout San Diego and
Southern California. Already this year, OMA has attracted huge turnouts to each of our receptions and
important events (600 attended the Hubbell/Salk
opening reception in early February; 400 attended
our Art After Dark event in January). Additionally,
OMA is generating tremendous press attention resulting in significantly greater numbers of admissions and new members. Overall museum membership has increased 10% in the past 2 months!
OMA is aggressively building a new vision for the future of the museum, which has spurred a “buzz”
in the North County and San Diego arts community about the museum’s programs and developing opportunities. Several significant strategies and priorities are in development with our outstanding Board,
staff, volunteers, and partners that will be announced over the next year. However, I wish to share with
you a few new directions that are ready for announcement.
First, OMA intends to focus significant exhibition and programming attention on the tremendous array
of diverse and talented artists living and working in San Diego. Producing insightful scholarship about
our region’s talent and connecting it with the larger Southern California, national, and international arts
discourse will be a critical priority for the museum in the next few years.
As all visitors to OMA know, OMA is greatly endowed with a fabulous museum facility – a 2008 Fredrick Fisher renovation/expansion to our original Irving Gill historic 1934 City Hall building. Taking a
fresh perspective on our wonderful museum and all of its capabilities, OMA is looking to reconfigure
our facility to better serve the public with additional exhibition and programming galleries/spaces. For
example our lobby, outside terrace/plaza, and stairwell are all ripe for the exhibition of artwork and
sculpture, in particular.
In addition, our lower level – historically off limits to the public – has a significant amount of space that
can accommodate a 700 square foot exhibition/project space gallery and a 900 square foot youth/adult
education classroom. With the generous support of our members and donors over the next months of
this year, we can open these new spaces and offer the high quality of programming that OMA is known
for. So...get ready...we’ve got much more to announce in the near future.

EXHIBITIONS
VOLCANOS AND FULL MOONS: ERNEST SILVA
MAY 25 - SEPTEMBER 15, 2013
At once comic, contemplative
and expressive of the human
condition, Ernest Silva’s body of
work reflects his interest in using
multiple-narratives to explore
personal and universal images.
Recognized for his metaphoric
imagery of deer, lighthouses,
water, birds and figures, Silva
will present an engaging conversation between his earlier and
more recent work occupying
two exhibition galleries and our
lobby!
Ernest Silva, House, Trees, Family, 2012
Silva derives his imagery from a
variety of sources: family photographs of his childhood in
Rhode Island, vintage story book
covers from the 1950’s, popular
culture and art history. His imagery is also informed by memory,
providing a panoply of symbols
that combine to activate a strong
emotional response. Interested
in the intersection between
painting, sculpture and installation his exhibition will reflect
a combination of the three that
will transform the galleries into
a stage set with drawings and
paintings on the walls and props
on the floor. Silva encourages
the viewer to become part of
the painting and the story, losing
the separation between artist, art
and audience.
Ernest Silva moved to San Diego from Rhode Island in 1979
to accept a teaching position at
the University of California San
Diego where he is a Professor
of Visual Art. Since then he has
been an active force not only in
the San Diego/Southern California art community, but also on
a national and international level. His public art projects have
included an installation at the
Centro Cultural Tijuana, Tijuana, Mexico and he has a major
long-term project called the Rain
House at The New Children’s
Museum of San Diego.

LOOKING FOR THINGS: JAY JOHNSON
May 25 - September 15, 2013
The diversity of Jay Johnson’s
chosen media is paralleled
in his constant exploration of
new modes of expression that
reflect his dry humor and inventive nature. Working with
found and reclaimed objects,
wood, metal, clay and paper,
each of Johnson’s works hint
at satirical short stories derived
from his imagination and the
world around him. Johnson has
played an active role in the San
Diego art scene since the 1980s
and most recently completed a
major project for the County of
San Diego. This exhibition presents recent work along with a
sampling of seminal pieces from
his oeuvre.
