WELCOME TO THE TE KUPENGA INTERNATIONAL STONE SCULPTURE SYMPOSIUM 2010

The selection process for artists attending the 2010 Symposium is now complete.  The artists' names are published in the following pages. The International, National and Taranaki sculptors will gather in New Plymouth at the end of December 2010,

Shortly, this website will feature links to images of each artist's previous work and statements from the artists about their work.  

For three weeks in January these talented artists will carve the local volcanic Andesite boulders on the New Plymouth foreshore beside the Tasman sea. The local public and tourists will have a rare  opportunity to observe hard rock sculptors at work and to see the fruits of their efforts at the final exhibition from 19 January and auction on 23 January.

Throughout the Symposium this website will enable people to see events unfold – with new pictures of the artist's works in progress being uploaded on a regular basis. 

When revisiting this website, do remember to PRESS YOUR REFRESH BUTTON so that fresh images will download for you to see.
