Snider has made significant contributions to contemporary art practice in Canada.From 1981-2009 he taught visual artstudio, critical theory, technical theatreand social art history in the School for theContemporary Arts at Simon Fraser University,and is currently a ProfessorEmeritus. He served as Curator of ContemporaryArt for the Art Gallery ofGreater Victoria, and for Open SpaceGallery, Victoria, BC. He is well-knownas a writer of art criticism.Snider’s artwork has included sculpture,performance design, models, drawingsand videos. His models may be hismost popular pieces. Snider began creatingscale models early in his career toaccompany formal proposals for larger,site-specific artworks. During these years,he began to recognize their potential as conceptual prototypes addressing issues in the public sphere.While the full-scale public art projects represented by these models are often unreasonable and evenimpossible, the models themselves serve to illustrate and underscore issues of global concern.Greg Snider has been the recipient of numerous grants, including Canada Council Senior ArtsGrants. He is represented in a number of public and private collections in Canada, including the ArtGallery of Greater Victoria and the National Gallery of Canada.
