Toorak Village Sculpture Exhibition 2009
FESTIVAL DATES 1ST MAY – 31ST MAY 2009
The Toorak Village Sculpture Exhibition is the most innovative and important annual event to take place in the Toorak Village, where we link the arts with business to form a unique cultural experience. During the month of May we exhibit contemporary sculptural works in the shop windows and on the sidewalks of Toorak Rd. Each year it continues to grow with increased enthusiasm from traders, artists & the public that view & buy sculpture.
2009 will be the 8th year of the Toorak Village Sculpture Exhibition and we invite all emerging and prominent sculptors to submit entries for both interior & exterior installation.
Interior – small to medium sized for exhibition in shop windows & must be displayed on an independent white base (supplied by artist). Remember our shop window sizes do vary & the sculptures must share window space with shops merchandise.
Exterior - large sized, extremely robust & able to be fixed/bolted to footpath for installation along Toorak Road. There will be 8 to 10 sites available
Consultant curator – Malcolm Thomson, presently curator of the Clement Meadmore Gallery at the Australian Academy of Design will assist the exhibition committee with the selection of sculpture for the 2009 exhibition. We plan to have prizes of $5,000, $2,000 & $1,000 for the most innovative sculptural works, a prestigious opening in the Toorak Village, a full colour catalogue, signage, posters & an impressive media campaign. Once again it is proudly supported & sponsored by the City of Stonnington along with Toorak Village businesses.
We look forward to receiving entries for the Toorak Village Sculpture Exhibition 2009.

MIFGS 2009
At the last committee meeting Patrick Culshaw provided a verbal report covering progress to date. He advised that an increase in prize money had been negotiated with IMG, and this will become permanent. IMG have also agreed to last year’s revised split up of commission, to ASV benefit. As well, Without Pier Gallery has again agreed to sponsor the Emerging Sculptor Award. The venue is the same as last year, with the same gazebo and more space than last year. Deborah Halpern will be Judge. A function will be held at La Notte again. Two other possible sponsors/donors are still to decide. The Committee congratulated the Treasurer on the favourable negotiations with IMG. So now sculptors – get ready to put your best foot forward for MIFGS 2009!
Entries close February 23rd 2009. Entry forms and conditions of entry can be downloaded at: http://www.sculptorsvictoria.asn.au/mifgs_entry_2009.pdf http://www.sculptorsvictoria.asn.au/mifgs_information_2009.pdf
