We’ve got the schedule sorted for the conference! Click here to have a look at what’s in store.
There’s also a new page listing panel discussions, which center on options for young sculptors in and out of school, and on public art. It’s a really exciting lineup.
Just a few weeks to go!
John Grade and I met several years ago when a student of mine came home from the Miami Art Basil with one of his catalogs for his work. His forms spoke to me then and I immediately worked on getting him here for a visiting artist gig here at UW. What I found through this interaction was a kind, smart, driven, and incredibly down to earth artist that both the students and I could aspire to become. For the conference he will be sharing his new work Middle Fork.
For more info on John and the work he’ll be exhibiting in Laramie, click here.
We’re getting our sculpture yard ready! Excited for a clean and organized work space!

Two things for you to have a look at as the conference approacheth:
The 2014 poster has been released, to have a look at, post at your university, etc. You’ll also want to look at the pdf of the back of the poster, a separate pdf – it has a lot of important info that (at the time I’m writing this)hasn’t been broken down into individual web pages yet. So look at it here – it’s currently the most comprehensive source of info on the conference. Just click on the thumbnail image of the poster, then the link below.
