 Auction this... By GARY BRADY-HERNDON Wednesday, June 13, 2001 ...A good example of the pride the wine makers take in displaying their wines was this year's co-hosts, Bob and Margrit Mondavi's, effort. Enlisting the talent of east coast artist, Wayne Ensrud, the Mondavi's had 20 bottles hand painted representing each of the 20 years the auction has been in existence. To display the bottles, Napa artist, Lisa Splendid-Jacklich, built a eight foot tower fashioned after the one that sits atop the winery building in Oakville. Splendid-Jacklich built an armature that reached from floor to ceiling. Inserted into the central frame were custom made supports, hand hammered in place, each arm covered with lamb's suede, so the bottles gently spiraled down the post. Splendid-Jacklich went to great lengths to match the stucco outer surface and the bronze door handles fashioned after the real ones found on the main winery doors. The doors themselves were made from 100 year old oak barrel staves which she sanded and then re-weathered to give an authentic appearance to the tower's entrance. Inside, she lined the walls and ceiling with light gauge copper sheets to reflect the beauty of the bottles and the artwork adorning their bodies.This combined effort worked especially well. At auction on Saturday, the Mondavi's lot went for $260,000, representing one of the biggest draws of the day -- a testament to the wine, the wine makers and the power of a good presentation.... read ENTIRE article... http://www.napavalleyregister.com/articles/2001/06/13/community/export159.txt http://www.napavalleyregister.com/articles/2001/06/13/community/export159.txtshapeimage_8_link_0
 Masters of art and wine Thursday, June 07, 2001 From Register Staff

Wine meets art in grand style this week in the valley. The 74 versions of Bacchus, which have been on display at the Napa Valley Museum, have been moved to the Meadowood where they will be auctioned off as part of the Napa Valley Wine Auction activities.In their place, the Napa Valley Museum will open a new exhibit featuring some great names in art history celebrating wine.The Bacchus creations were the inspiration of Margrit Biever Mondavi, who is co-chairing this year's auction with her husband, Robert. She created the designs for four-foot, die-cut template images of Bacchus, the Greek god of wine and fertility. By invitation, 74 artists, three-quarters of whom are local, let their imaginations run wild as they recreated the templates in their own styles."It was a major challenge," said Eric Nelson, director of the Napa Valley Museum, "but people got really creative around it."Or as artist Rise Delmar Ochsner named her piece, it was a process of getting "In Touch with my Inner Bacchus." Results ranged from a "Bucket-Headed Bacchus," by Robert Cooley to Lisa Splendid Jacklich's cubed "Boxed Bacchus... read ENTIRE article... http://www.napavalleyregister.com/articles/2001/06/07/features/export3786.txthttp://www.napavalleyregister.com/articles/2001/06/07/features/export3786.txtshapeimage_12_link_0
