Creative New Zealand has provided further information on the selection process for New Zealand's presentation at the 2015 Venice Biennale.

The proposals will be assessed by a selection panel chaired by Arts Council Chairman Dick Grant and including: Heather Galbraith (2015 Commissioner), Alistair Carruthers (Patron), Anne Rush (Arts Council), Blair French (Assistant Director, Curatorial & Digital, MCA, Sydney), Brett Graham, Artist), Caterina Riva (Director, Artspace), Dayle Mace (Patron), Helen Kedgely (Arts Council), and Judy Millar (Artist).
The panel will meet in late September with the aim of announcing the successful artist(s)/curator team in early October.
