Juneau Retro — The Geometric Years: 1955–1980
The exhibition "Juneau Retro — The Geometric Years: 1955–1980" brings together an extensive selection of acrylics on canvas and gouaches on paper representative of the approach taken by Denis Juneau, an artist belonging to the second generation of the Plasticien movement. The works on view feature rhythmical, simple and precise geometric forms, bright, flat colours, an economy of means and a grid-like division of the pictorial space. In them can be seen the formal preoccupations that marked an entire era, not only in the area of the fine arts, but also in the world of design and advertising.

Gender and Exposure in Contemporary Iranian Photography
Discourses about Middle Eastern art tend to be preoccupied by certain issues: femininity, the veil, gender disparity, religious tradition, and revolutionary conflict. This exhibition shifts focus by considering the following themes: masculinity; female agency; secular activities; Persian traditions; and the unique situation of Iran.
The artists communicate visual messages that are by necessity subtle and ambiguous. They use strategies such as metaphor and allegory, the blurring of boundaries between fiction and documentary, and the adoption of visual styles more typical of fashion, advertising, and graphic design. This exhibition offers audiences an opportunity to abandon old assumptions and gain new insights.

Mark Boulos, No Permanent Address
Images Festival and Gallery TPW are very pleased to co-present work by Mark Boulos. No Permanent Address is a three channel video portrait of the New People's Army, a Maoist guerrilla group in the Philippines.
The work speaks to the persistence of communist ideologies at a time in which Boulos suggests "capitalism has begun to lose its sense of inevitability."
Boulos looks at the members of the insurgent group as quotidian heroes as he records their daily activities and speaks with them about notions of love, sacrifice, revolution and ideology.

Alyssa Andrews, BFA
Alyssa Andrews says her undergraduate education at Grenfell was memorable because of the close-knit spirit and sense of community within the visual arts program. The visual arts graduate, who completed her masters' degree in Quebec, believes Grenfell's small class sizes and the professional relationships with professors made for an incredibly rewarding and immersive educational experience. "It was only when I left Grenfell and attended Concordia University that I realized the high caliber of training that I received from Grenfell's professors, " she says.
