Centre, 22 Symonds Street
Marilyn Higgins is Deputy Head of the School of Architecture and

effective is the planning system in New Zealand in promoting good 
quality urban design? This seminar presents results of research carried 
out this year, based on interviews with a number of key players. It 
evaluates the success of the Government's urban design initiatives and 
looks at examples drawn from around the country. It is hoped that a 
lively debate will ensue!


5. Call for Entries: Temporary Sculpture Installation
Apply By Saturday 31 May 2008
New Zealand artists are invited to submit concept proposals for the 4th 
Annual Temporary Sculpture Installation project at the Connells Bay 
Sculpture Park on Waiheke Island. The commission is for a temporary 
installation. The work should be sculptural in nature and created for an 
outdoor site in a coastal/rural environment. It is important that the 
proposed work is ephemeral in nature and not simply a pre-built object 
for sale. The work is to be installed at Connells Bay Sculpture Park. 
The specific site for the work will be selected by the artist in 
consultation with the Trustees. Note that it is imperative that the work 
is sufficiently robust to remain installed in a coastal/rural 
environment for at least 6 months. It will be exposed to rain, wind and sun.
