We are slowing down for the summer here at twocities, but here are a couple of international shows and conferences in July worth noting.
Australian Ceramics Triennale, July 16 - 20, 2009
This national ceramics conference, in its 12th year, will be hosted in Sydney from July 16 to 20. Ceramic artists from around the globe are invited to present, exhibit and lead workshops, and the conference aims to promote international dialogue on the development of ceramic art in Australia. Two Chinese artists, Li Jianshen (Jackson Lee) and Chen Guanghui, will be participating this year.
This year's theme is 'Facing the Future' and focuses on the relationship between contemporary ceramic practices and the emergence of various global forces.
Glass Weekend at Wheaton Arts, July 17 - 19, 2009
Sponsored by The Creative Glass Center of America at Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center and the Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass, this biennial event has been held since 1985. From July 17 to 19, this international symposium and exhibition brings together glass artists, collectors, galleries and museum curators for three days of exhibitions, lectures, demonstrations and hands-on workshops. A gallery exhibition features the most current works of over 200 international artists.
Proceeds from the weekend benefit the Creative Glass Center's fellowship program, which provides working fellowships to 12 individual artists, selected from around the world, each year.
