Tuesday, September 20th, 2011

The Arts, Culture and Heritage Advisory Committee for the City of Sechelt is going to hold a new speaker series, from September 17 – October 29, showcasing Robin Mayor, past- president of Emily Carr, former interdisciplinary and painting faculty Geoff Rees, architect Ian Johnston, public art curator Lori Phillips and internationally renowned curator, juror and lecturer Keith Wallace.

The Curator’s Journey

The role of the curator is instrumental to the success of so many artists, from the selection and presentation of their work to their ongoing development. Keith Wallace, Yishu’s Editor-in-Chief, is going to discuss the evolution of curatorial practices during the past thirty years, the role of the curator within institutions and the art system, the relationship between the curator and the artist, and how exhibitions can be forms of both communication and mistranslation.

This event is sponsored by the district of Sechelt.

Venue: Seaside Centre, 5511 Shorncliffe, Sechelt

Open to Public: September 17 – October 29
