New OCAD President Will Fight Pugly Award

By Sarah Lazarovic

Well, we don’t know what practicing artist and soon to be OCAD President Sara Diamond has on her OCAD to do list, but one of those line items will definitely include defending Will Alsop’s tabletop from Pugly commendation (see below). In keeping with OCAD’s tradition of hiring practicing artistes, Ms. Diamond is both video/installation artist and current director of research at the Banff Centre and artistic director of the Banff New Media Institute. She also looks a wee bit like Betsey Johnson.
