1.1 Introduction of Art at Council
Verbal Report: Mayor Clay / File: 18-7705-01
Mayor Clay welcomed Janice Cotter, Gallery Manager of the Port Moody Arts Centre, to introduce the eveningˇ¦s Art at Council, a poem and painting titled Love is the Pain of Feverish Flowers. Ms. Cotter noted that the Port Moody Arts Centre will be holding a Korean literature and arts exhibition of the same name starting on July 14, 2016 featuring poems from poet Cheonhak Kwon's award 
winning poetry book, and paintings from painter Cheongcho Lee, inspired by Ms. Kwon's poems.

Ms. Cotter noted that over the 20 years that Ms. Kwon and Mr. Lee have known each other, Ms. Kwonˇ¦s poetry has been an inspiration for many of Mr. Leeˇ¦s paintings. Their collaboration on Love is the Pain of Feverish Flowers is their first combined literary and visual arts exhibition, in which they hope to communicate and share the cultural and artistic emotions of poetry and painting in harmony. Ms. Cotter invited everyone to attend the poetry reading and live painting performance to be held at the exhibition opening from 6pm to 8pm, at which Mr. Lee will be painting Ms. Kwon's traditional Korean dress.

Ms. Cotter welcomed Ms. Kwon and her daughter, Hana Kim, to the stage to read the poem, Love is the Pain of Feverish Flowers, in Korean and English.
The artists, through an interpreter, responded to questions on motivation, inspiration, and layering of poetry with other art forms, such as music and dance.
