Sculpture Symposia 2010

Students will work on collaborative projects that will be on temporary exhibition in the park. Close contact with working artists and art students in these two countries as well as a visit to the National Art Academy in Tallinn Estonia will provide a wide range of exposure to contemporary issues in visual art in Europe. Visits to major art museums, cultural sites will be arranged in each country. For those students who choose to extend their stay in Europe, Helsinki is the ideal city from which to visit St. Petersburg Russia and the Hermitage Museums and other world-class collections and historic sites

Hello Everyone.

I am pleased to report that everyone has arrived safely in Kellokoski. The weather is unusually warm and summer-like and the situation is perfect. We are located on the banks of a small river, the accommodations are excellent and very comfortable and the facilities look very good for the Iron Casting Symposium. Tomorrow morning we gather for breakfast and than an organizational meeting and the work of the symposium begins. Several students will go to get iron, the equipment and materials will be organized and students will begin working on their patterns. Starting tomorrow we will make every effort to provide images to accompany the written entries.

Thanks for your interest and support.

Carl
