SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
11 a.m.- 12:30 p.m.
SARAH THORNTON
Vancity Theatre, 1181 Seymour Street
Begin your day with a special talk by Sarah Thornton, author of Seven Days
in the Art World. Thornton's acclaimed book takes us behind the scenes
at Christie's auction house, a "crit" class at CalArts, Art Basel, the Turner
Prize, Takashi Murakami's studio and the Venice Biennale. She will reveal
how she went about researching the book, explain how its narratives are
"ethnographic" and address some of its recurrent themes, such as artistic
validation and social hierarchies.
A Canadian based in the U.K., Thornton has a B.A. in art history and a Ph.D. in sociology. She writes about art, the art world and the art market for many publications, including the Art Newspaper
and Artforum. She has taught cultural studies at Sussex University, and was a visiting research fellow
at Goldsmiths, University of London.
Presented as part of ART TALKS: Canadian Art INTERNATIONAL SPEAKER SERIES

SPECIAL SCREENING AND RECEPTION
HERB AND DOROTHY
5:30.- 8:30 p.m.
Vancity Theatre, 1181 Seymour Street
Complete your day with a special screening of Herb and Dorothy, Megumi Sasaki's award-winning documentary film, followed by a cocktail reception with fellow art lovers. You don't need to be a Rockefeller to collect art. He was a postal clerk. She was a librarian. With their modest means, this couple managed to build one of the most important contemporary-art collections in history. Meet Herbert and Dorothy Vogel, whose passion and committment defy stereotypes and redefine what it means to be an art collector. The Washington Post calls this film "a love affair with art." Director Megumi Sasaki will be present to introduce the film and participate in a Q&A.
Presented in partnership with:  Thank you to our sponsors:
