ECU students will participate in two International Sculpture Symposia, one in Finland and one in Latvia. They will make their own work as well as work with and assist students and invited artists from several countries in a cast iron workshop in Kellokoski, Finland. Land based installation will be the theme of the second symposium in Pedvale Sculpture Park in Latvia. This blog will document their study abroad experience.
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
