The sculpture is displayed – and judged - in three sections (a) carved works (b) formed or cast works (c) fabricated works and installations. Each year we show over 100 works suitable for garden/courtyard areas, large properties, corporate spaces and home decoration (The average over the past few years is about 120 works.) There are thousands and thousands of People’s Choice Award votes lodged by viewers of the exhibition. This is one of Australia’s longest-running (over 20 years) and largest outdoor sculpture exhibitions (by number of sculptures on display).
The opening function and presentation event will be held on Wednesday, 29th March at East Imperial Restaurant, Carlton. For invitations to this event please contact the curator whose details can be found below.
The exhibition is presented and co-ordinated by the Association of Sculptors of Victoria sculptorsvictoria.asn.au. For further information regarding the exhibition please contact the curator, Mark Cowie 0429 336 639 or asv_mifgs@sculptorsvictoria.asn.au
