Sweeps run November 2026
Tested negatives — the checklist run whole, the empty shelves named. Run against Lakeville and Union Township, the artists checklist returns: no founding academic artist — no art department or school was founded here for one to found; no sculptor of record (Colanese's mixed-media sculpture is one medium of a painter, not a sculptor's line); no sculptor-in-residence succession and no niche-filling generation; no university museum and no city art museum — the town has neither institution, and the county's museum record is South Bend's file; no canon painter of a local school at national record; no designer-teacher succession in the public schools at the strength the record carries; no public-art survey to make — no major outdoor work with a named maker was found standing on the town's ground (the marker record is the historians' file, and the Centennial Quilt — a community textile, pictured in the county's plan — is the events file's and the culture leg's, not a named artist's work); no photographer of record (Geyer is carried as author and compiler of photographs, not as a photographer; a South Bend photographer's "Lakeville" session page is a shoot location, not a Lakeville photographer); no novelist, poet or children's-book author tied to the town. The sweep's loudest false positives were another Lakeville's: Connecticut's post-office mural record, excluded on its own carrier.
