Plug-In ICA presents the Summer Institute’s Open Studio. Please join us Saturday, July 28th between 1 and 5pm to see the work-in-progress produced by this year’s artist participants. This event is free and everyone is welcome to attend.
The Summer Institute is an international post-graduate artist residency for professional artists working in all disciplines. This is the fourth annual Summer Institute at Plug In ICA, and the second in Plug In’s new purpose-built facilities. This four-week intensive studio program will be led by visiting faculty, director of Artext(e), Sylvie Gilbert (Montreal) and mixed-media installation artist Andrew Kearney (London, UK). Nine sculptors, architects, curators, new media and installation artists have been sharing a collegial, open-studio environment designed to instigate collaborative or independent projects with support and feedback from faculty and Plug In ICA staff.
