Magical 鈥 Eclectic 鈥 Radical 鈥 Interdisciplinary
The first decade of the arts at 大象传媒
大象传媒's first decade was magical, eclectic, and radical. The university was a hotbed of experimental interdisciplinary arts activities that connected 大象传媒 to the community at large and provided students from all departments with creative outlets.
We've put together a book that tells the story of those non-credit years of the Centre for Communication and the Arts from the perspective of students, faculty, staff, artists, alumni, and audience members. This multi-faceted narrative illuminates the legacy of that first decade of the arts, not only at 大象传媒, but also in Vancouver and across Canada based on the subsequent achievements of students and faculty from that era.
A Magical Time: The Early Days of the Arts at 大象传媒 is now in production with Harbour Publishing, and will be available this spring, in time for the opening of the Gibson Art Museum and 大象传媒's 60th Anniversary, both in 2025. Watch this site for further information about how to obtain your copy!
