Vancouver Sculpture Biennale
New Media Plans + TAA Networking Party
Thursday 18 October 5:30P–9:00P

Join us for a presentation by Michella Frosch about the Vancouver Sculpture Biennale, leading to legacies beyond 2010.

The Vancouver Sculpture Biennale is a public art festival, mounted every two years, featuring the work of some of the world’s most acclaimed contemporary sculptors. A new focus has become public works involving new media.

Leora Kornfeld of Ubiquity Interactive will give a presentation about metroCode.net’s innovative cellphone tour to augment the pieces on display in the parks, walkways, and plazas of Vancouver.

Michella Frosch is CEO of Crescende Enterprises Ltd., a company she founded in 2001 for the purpose of creating a series of exhibition tours world-wide of artefacts from private collections around the world.

From 1995–1997 she played a key role in the development and writing of the strategic plan for Illuminated Filmworks, the official sub-license film agency of the Vatican Library. She also worked with a team of people to create the vision and sponsorship program for an international film festival for the United Nations, for their conference on Population and Development in Cairo.

Michella has been a member of the Board of Directors for Arts Umbrella for more than 17 years (Canada’s Visual and Performing Arts Centre for children Ages 2 to 19) and Director of the Arts Umbrella Foundation Board for 3 years. She also serves as Board Member of the International Centre for Global Ethics Canada, Chairs the Board of Directors of the Vancouver Sculpture Biennale—Open Spaces Project, and continues to be involved with several other charitable organizations in arts and culture.
