A&AH GRADUATE EXHIBITION MEETING

Art and Art History Graduate Exhibitions Meeting
Tuesday, November 25, 2008
12:30 – 1:30 p.m.
Sheridan, Lecture Hall B124

All graduating students wishing to participate in our two graduate exhibitions at the Blackwood Gallery in March 2009 should attend this meeting.

The exhibitions will take place between March 4 – 29, 2009. Artsweek at U of T will be March 19 – April 3. It might be advantageous to have the second opening on the 19th.

At the meeting we will assign tasks to students to assist with the organization of the shows. Some of the tasks will include the following:

· Signage design and show titles
· Canadian Art ad design and coordination
· Press release writing and distribution
· Artist statement editor
· Reception coordinator
· Installation coordinator for first exhibition, includes creating list of works in the exhibition
· Installation coordinator for second exhibition, includes creating list of works in the exhibition
· Installation strike coordinator for first exhibition
· Installation strike coordinator for second exhibition
· Web communications coordinator, Facebook page

We may consider placing work in outdoor and indoor public spaces throughout the campus. Given that this would take some time to negotiate with the administration, we should think of a deadline well in advance, say six weeks before. That would bring us to mid January.
