Temporary Sculpture Exhibits at
Several Vancouver Parks

Vancouver International Sculpture Biennale

September 22, 2005 - During late September and through October 30th sculptures will be placed in Vancouver parks including Devonian Harbour, Coal Harbour, Thornton, English Bay and Vanier Parks.

These latest sculptures to appear at a variety of greenswards is part of the Vancouver International Sculpture Biennale. The Park Board emphasizes that the organizers of the display will undertake all costs related to it and that it is temporary in nature with plans for coming down 18-months from now.

Starting in 1998, sculptures from around the world have appeared as temporary exhibits on parks in Vancouver. Originally sponsored and funded by Buschlen Mowatt Galleries, these exhibits are now a part of the Vancouver International Sculpture Biennale. The Park Board has entered into an agreement (See Board Report) with the Biennale to enable a number of 18-month exhibits to take place in parks over the next 10 years.
