empty library pad

The temporary art installation element of the Yucca Valley Public Art Program includes an installation on the cement pad at the San Bernardino County Library on the corner of Highway 62 and Joshua Lane. This will give local artists a chance to showcase their piece at a high-traffic area.

Selected Artist 

Gubby Beck is a Yucca Valley metal sculptor. She earned her BFA in Sculpture and Printmaking. Her work ranges in size from large scale installations to home decor and miniatures. She is a welder and bends all her metal by hand without using any heat. Gubby's sculptures vary from illustrative landscapes to organic abstract forms to whimsical surrealscapes.

Library Plaza Artwork

Artwork: "Infinite Connection"

The Yucca Valley Branch Library artwork incorporates shapes appearing to take on different forms, changing as the artwork is viewed from a variety of perspectives. Another feature of this project, the shadows cast by the installation, shift throughout the days and the seasons. "Infinite Connection" will be raw metal left to rust as it is exposed to the elements, further evolving throughout its lifecycle. Symbolizing the connection of the world and bringing people together.
