Biographies

Sam Durant lives and works in Los Angeles where he has developed an art practice that addresses utopias and failures. Using a broad range of mediums, his work crosses past events to create relationships between art historical, pop cultural, and political phenomena that have come to define culture in the last 35 years. He has an extensive international exhibition record that includes the last Venice and Whitney Bienniales as well as Baja to Vancouver at the VAG. He is represented by Blum & Poe in Santa Monica and Galleria Eva Fontana in Milan. He is in Vancouver for an exhibition at Catriona Jefferies Gallery.

Speaker Series

The Speaker Series (2000–2006) was a programme of visiting artist talks and lectures organized by Charles H. Scott Gallery in conjunction with the Art Now course at ECIAD. The programme was initiated by ECIAD faculty Ian Wallace in the 1970’s as a series of lunchtime artist talks. Wallace ran the programme until 1998.
