It is my pleasure to announce the successful candidate of the Killam Library artist-in-residence project: William Robinson. William’s work employs video, performance, sculpture, drawing and other media to investigate the culture of sound and social architecture. He has exhibited nationally and internationally, having shown in New York, Bergen and Berlin, as well as in Toronto at Nuit Blanche and in Halifax at Nocturne. William will be doing two public talks/presentations during his six-week residency, which begins on Monday. The dates for these public talks are not yet confirmed.
The idea for this residency came from SIM student, artist and Killam intern Nancy McPhee. The funding came through an HRM grant. The Killam is partnering with the Dalhousie Art Gallery on this initiative.
For more information about the residency, please see the LibVine
