People Among the People: Book Signing with Susan Point + Robert D. Watt
Thursday May 30, 2019 | 6:30 – 7:30 pm
Join MOA for a special book signing with Musqueam artist Susan Point and author Robert D. Watt for the launch of People Among the People: The Public Art of Susan Point, published by Figure 1 in collaboration with MOA.
The stunning new book celebrates the public art of one of Canada’s most accomplished artists and designers. People Among the People beautifully displays the breadth and depth of Susan Point’s public art—from cast bronze faces in Whistler to massive carved cedar portals in Stanley Park to moulded polymer murals in Seattle.
Through interviews and archival access, Robert D. Watt gathers the stories of Point’s public art, often in Point’s own words, to illustrate the vital role she has played in revealing and re-establishing the “Salish footprint” in the Pacific Northwest.
The author and artist will be on hand to sign copies of the book at the MOA Shop.
The signing is free and open to the public (does not include museum admission).
For those who would like to skip the line in advance of the book signing — ‘People Among the People’ is currently available for purchase at the MOA Shop ($50).
