Did Ed Bedford drop his fork?
Hey, I noticed Ed hasn’t written anything for Tin Fork in a while. I’ve been reading it since I was a teenager and it’s become somewhat of a comfort section for me. Hopefully he’s doing well!
Curious what happened to this column? I haven’t seen it since early 2023. Is Ed no longer doing Tin Fork? Please, let me know. I do enjoy the Print version, and seldom go to the website (force of habit/old admirer of The Reader). Is Ed still contributing?
Ed is taking a well-deserved vacation. He should return to writing in a few weeks.
Del Mar: no heart for art
Your May 9 article (“Is Octetra the right art for Del Mar?”, Neighborhood News, May 9, 2023) about the proposal from the City of Del Mar’s Arts Advisory Committee for a Noguchi sculpture to be installed at the Del Mar Civic Center got a few of the most critical facts about the proposal wrong. Your reporter, Sheila Pell said, “The Del Mar City Council voted 3-2 to proceed to a 60-day public comment phase.” If only that were true. The fact is that the Council voted 3-2 to kill the project on the spot. The Council did not take its Arts Advisory Committee’s recommendation to move the proposal forward with a public comment period, which would have been followed by a vote by residents. This was a sad day for many residents and many steps backwards for Del Mar in terms of public art.
