Lucky old me gets to attend this exciting symposium at Harbourfront in a couple of weeks....
Landmark symposium delves into the history and innovations of Canadian Craft
Crafting New Traditions: Canadian Innovators + Influences Symposium
February 22 and February 23, 2008 at Harbourfront Centre
Crafting New Traditions: Canadian Innovators + Influences Symposium is the first time that Canada's craft practice will be explored from a historical and contemporary artistic perspective - through the minds and voices of some of Canada's most influential curators, artists and academics. This symposium includes three keynote speakers and ten respected researchers from across Canada examining the influences and accomplishments of prominent Canadian craft pioneers working in ceramics, glass, metal, textiles and wood. These presentations coincide with the launch of the book Crafting New Traditions: Canadian Innovators and Influences - published by the Canadian Museum of Civilization (as part of their Mercury series), in collaboration with Harbourfront Centre.
So, seemingly, my arts and culture blog has metaphorphasised into a craft blog. But frankly, Toronto already has plenty of quality craft blogs. So, what should I do?
