LAND ART New Mexico

OUTDOOR SITE-SPECIFIC SCULPTURE CLASS
Fall 2009

Using the instructor as a mentor and guide, students will propose, plan, research and help each other build their projects on sites of their choosing throughout New Mexico. There will be a class visit and demonstration with guest artist Patrick Dougherty. Students will be expected to contact landowners or government offices and work with them to clear the way for installation. Class will meet once each week for discussion and once each week for building. Supplies will be purchased by the students as necessary. Open to teens and adults.

	CALL FOR ENTRIES The Harwood Art Center is currently seeking proposals from artists to create site-specific, temporary, outdoor installations on the grounds of the Harwood Art Center. All works to be considered must entice and engage the community and passersby, benefit from community involvement, and be impervious to, or happily engage, potentially destructive forces of nature or human interaction. Please visit the Calls for Entries section of this site.

This site is updated regularly. Please check back for more details and new information. This project is made possible in part by The FUNd at Albuquerque Community Foundation and McCune Charitable Foundation.
