DYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT Panel Discussion

Throughout the past decade, The Utilities and Environmental Protection Department's Public Art Program, WATERSHED+, has been changing the way artists work within the City to create new and diverse public art works and stronger connections between Citizens and City Services and Employees.

The City of Calgary UEP Public Art Program WATERSHED+

WATERSHED+ Lead Artists and  all  DE Lab artists discuss how embedding artists within City systems can lead to innovative public art work.

Contemporary Calgary

Embedding artists in a hidden, yet integral City system has provoked new ideas and dialogues, changing how Public Art is created and perceived in our City. Join WATERSHED+ Lead Artists, Sans façon, along with all five DE Lab artists for an intimate and illuminating discussion, delving into the history and creation of the project, and the artists’ experiences working within the City of Calgary. Moderated by Amery Calvelli, this discussion intends to showcase the success and challenges of The Dynamic Environment Lab as part of WATERSHED+, and how the program has affected the direction of public art in Calgary. 

Following the discussion, please join the panelists for an opening reception of the exhibit DYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT. A selection of works from the DE Lab artists, on view until January 2020, speaks to the vast scope of the Utilities and Environmental Protection Department, the employees who maintain our crucial infrastructure, and the intimate connections art can create between Citizen and City. 

Contemporary Calgary will be open from 5:00PM to 9:00PM and the Panel Discussion will begin at 6:00PM in the Planetarium.
