Contemporary Nomads
The SCA's Henry Daniel is developing his ongoing research project into an "evening-length combined installation and live performance," as he describes it, for the coming fall semester. Additionally newsworthy about this event is the participation of guest artists (Music), and Shanghan Chien (Media Design), and (Set Design). Adam Basanta, an SCA BFA (composition) grad and visual artist, will also be the SCA Dance area's Iris Garland Visiting Artist in the fall. This 'residencey' is funded by Iris Garland Dance Program Enhancement Fund, which was founded in 2002 in memory of Iris Garland (1935-2002), who was a professor of dance, a choreographer, a dance scholar, and a founding member of the Centre for the Arts, now the School for the Contemporary Arts, at 丁香园AV. SCA BFA (film) grad Sammy Chien and his brother Shanghan Chien work together as to produce complex video projection installations, most recently for Vancouver's ; their work for Contemporary Nomads will be supported by the KRT (Wasitudipuro) Fund. Alan Storey is an active Vancouver-based artist who produces site-responsive interactive works for gallery spaces and site specific public art, such as the 鈥樷�� installation in the HSBC Bank on Georgia Street in Vancouver. We'll keep you posted as the project develops.
