New Guide to Sculpture on Campus

March 31, 2014

McMaster University students Mera Qamar and Annie Zhu, who produced new Campus Sculpture Guide.

From the Bird bath to the Bust of Bertrand Russell, there’s a wealth of sculpture to be explored all across McMaster campus. And just in time for warmer weather, two McMaster students have produced a new, expanded Campus Sculpture Guide to help you do just that.

Pick up a free guide at the McMaster Museum of Art, while supplies last*, and begin your tour of more than 20 sculptures from the Museum’s doorstep. With brochure in hand, the self-guided walking tour can be completed in under an hour.

The Guide includes a tour map, thumbnail photos, basic facts (artist, title, medium, donor) and stories-behind-the-sculptures. These are brief texts; highlighting the artist, subject, donor, or significance of the work to McMaster. Sculptures selected for this guide are primarily those that now, or in the past, fell within the Museum’s purview.

The Guide was designed by Annie Zhu (Health Sciences), who pulled together content from the archives with the help of Mera Qamar (Humanities).
