The College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales (COFA) is one of Australia's premier art and design schools located in Sydney, Australia. Shaun Gladwell, Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro are graduates of COFA – their Australian representation at the Venice Biennale highlights the crucial role of training institutions in the development of the next generation of artists, designers and theorists. Additionally, COFA has actively supported a group of Art Education students to develop an interactive education toolkit supporting young people to directly engage in the creative process with the artists exhibiting in 2009. COFA has also supported a postgraduate group of Master of Art Administration students to work as part of the planning and installation team for Once Removed on the ground in Venice, through the leadership of curator Felicity Fenner. We are greatly appreciative of COFA’s support and commitment to Australia’s participation at the 53rd International Art Exhibition in Venice.
