Online Q&A with Chris Williams

On Tuesday September 26 from 1:00-2:00 pm. the Arts Faculty is hosting an online Q&A event with Fine Arts Alum (BA ’91) and Academy Award winner Chris Williams

KWAG (Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallert) has produced short documentary videos titled Public Domain featuring artists whose work is in the KWAG Permanent Collection. Public Domain engages with the power of art to connect people and build more resilient communities, within the region and beyond.

Taking cues from the cartoneramovement, a grass roots publishing endeavour originating in Argentina in the early 2000s, the Fine Art students Professor Tara Cooper’s class "Takin’ It To The Streets" have created their own artist books, which will be on display in the Dana Porter Library lobby from February 2 to 13.  

Come on February 2 from 2 to 4 p.m. to celebrate the opening of the exhibit and try your hand at creating your own artist's book!

The latest animated film by Fine Arts Alum Chris Williams (BA '90) has been nominated for an Academy award in the Best Animated Feature category. The Netflix feature “The Sea Beast” is the story of legendary sea monster hunter whose life is turned upside down when a young girl stows away on his ship and befriends the most dangerous beast of them all.
