The Xth Sculpture Network International Forum – Sculpture Today A Space For Inquiry – Experience Re-Codified – takes place at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. It will address the theme with an international panel of experts and artists to question: How is “space” understood? Which is the spectator’s role? How is our experience of the piece? How do issues of sustainability and resource influence sculpture making and thought?
