Geoffrey Farmer (92) was awarded a 2008 Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton Award from the Canada Council for the Arts on December 16, 2008.
The annual awards, worth $15,000 each, recognize outstanding mid-career artists in the seven disciplines funded by the Canada Council: dance, integrated arts, media arts, music, theatre, visual arts and writing and publishing. The prizes were created using funds from a generous bequest made by the late Victor Martyn Lynch Staunton to the Canada Council.
Integrated arts artist Diane Borsato, set and costume designer Linda Brunelle, author Marlene Cookshaw, choreographer and dance artist Susanna Hood, filmmaker Shandi Mitchell and composer Michael Oesterle, rounded out the 2008 award recipients.

Terence Koh - Love for Eternity
Terence Koh - Love for Eternity
The Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Castilla y León (MUSAC) presents Love for Eternity, a foray into the unique creative universe of artist Terence Koh (02), where cultures and identities blend with influences from post-minimalism and 1970's body art to create a personal cosmos governed by decadence and deliberate excess, providing the onlooker moments of fragile beauty.
September 27, 2008 - January 11, 2009
MUSAC will also co-publish, with Hatje Cantz, a book entitled TERENCE KOH. 1980 - 2008. The book will cover Koh's career, including snapshots of his installations at MUSAC and will be launched shortly.
