Sculpture Now symposium

Department of Fine Arts

SculptureNOW brings together early and mid-career Canadian artists representing a range of approaches to the expanded field of sculpture. Organized in tag-team panels with a keynote speaker, this three-day symposium will explore sculptural and installation-based practices by comparing and contrasting various methodologies and approaches to subject matter: from representational to readymade, material to conceptual.


This year's panelists include Lois Andison, Michel de Broin, Jason de Haan, Derek Liddington, Kelly Mark, Roula Partheniou, and our BMO Keynote Speaker, Cal Lane. The symposium will also include studio visits with our MFA students. SculptureNOW is presented in conjunction with lois andison: relay, a mid-career survey of kinetic sculpture, video and text-based artwork at UWAG (University of Waterloo Art Gallery). The keynote presentation is supported by BMO Financial Group .
