THE Outdoor Sculpture Festival that was such a success in springtime 2014 is coming back to Canberra Grammar School, along with the new CGS Harris Hobbs Outdoor Sculpture Prize, sponsored by landscape artists Karina Harris and Neil Hobbs.
This time the heritage-listed CGS outdoor campus will be used to highlight the range of sculptural forms entered, which may vary “from the ephemeral to the monumental”, as they say—and will be heading into winter.
The campus will be enhanced by several permanent outdoor sculpture acquisitions funded from commissions from the sales of work from exhibitions in the CGS Gallery over the past 25 years.
Artists are invited to submit entries for the Outdoor Sculpture Prize by Friday April 21 to cgs.act.edu.au/community/harrishobbsprize/
Sites are available throughout the campus and artists may inspect the site in advance to consider the placement of their work. If artists wish to consider site specific responses contact Trevor Dunbar at trevor.dunbar@cgs.act.edu.au
