How to Public Art | Daniel Templeman

About

Join Dr Dan Templeman for an insider’s look at building a career in public art, from first steps to major commissions.

Dan has worked predominately in public art since 2004, delivering over 15 large-scale commissions from Perth to Melbourne to Townsville, and more recently into China. He has collaborated with some of Australia’s leading design and construction teams, including Hassell Architecture, Cox Architecture, Urban Art Projects and Brecknock Consulting, and is currently working on the world’s first buoyant artificial reef, destined for the Gold Coast.

Dan holds a Doctorate in Visual Arts from the Queensland College of Art, and has exhibited and held works in collections nationally and internationally.
