Agasi, a Mokelumne Hill artist, had two of his pieces of art on display at
Starbucks in Angels Camp. According to the Calaveras Enterprise, Agasi found
out last week that one of his pieces had been stolen; he has yet to recover it
and no information has come in as to its whereabouts. Agasi, who said he places
no blame on Starbucks or its management for the theft, has had pieces on
display on the walls at the coffee shop for nearly two years. Due to relocating
and being without a telephone for some time, Agasi did not find out that his creation, “Still Form in
Patience,” had been stolen until nearly two months after it was taken. The
piece measures 14 by 17 inches and is framed. It is done in chalk
pastels and depicts a chess piece, a boxing puppet and a pair of bolt cutters
with a multicolored background. Agasi said that if anybody has any information
about the painting they should call the Calaveras County Sheriff’s Department
at 754-6500. A Calaveras Enterprise Story
