  • Eija-Liisa Ahtila: Seeing in Time

    An exhibition honouring Eija-Liisa Ahtila, the Finnish artist whose experimental installations push boundaries in both art and film, opens in Montreal this week. Curator John Zeppetelli, also a filmmaker, has pulled together some of Ahtila’s key works.

  • Sorting Daemons: Big Brother’s Art-World Gaze

    George Orwell’s 1984 propelled terms like “doublespeak” and “Big Brother” into our lexicon, terms that crystallized fear of government control—and even inspired, decades later, some all-seeing reality TV. Now these themes drive an international group show in Kingston.

  • to show, to give, to make it be there: In the Beginning, the Word

    In the 1950s and 1960s, Vancouver was the site of fruitful cross-disciplinary activity—artists wrote, and poets made art. Now, Adele Weder reviews a semiotic-aesthetic homage to the era, one curated by Hard Core Logo author Michael Turner.

  • Sol LeWitt: Primary Legacy

    In recent years, both the Dia and MASS MoCA have mounted tribute exhibitions to late American artist Sol LeWitt. This week, Mercer Union wraps up its own notable homage, which recreates a 1981 wall drawing LeWitt did for the then-fledgling space.

  • The Khyber Controversy: Three Years' Grace

    For the past number of years, there's been controversy regarding the future of Halifax’s Khyber Arts Society. Seen by many as a key venue locally and nationally, the Khyber was back in the news this month as a city report recommended a new three-year plan for its space.

  • Todd Tremeer: War Games

    Play and strife come together, DIY style, in Todd Tremeer’s Little Wars (Make Me), an interactive project that debuted this month at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria. In it, viewers can collaborate on a wall-sized battle mural and “bring the war home” via paper-cutout soldiers.

  • John Kissick/Gwen MacGregor: Two for the Road

    Summer is often marked by contrasts, a dynamic that the Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery seems to pick up on in its current pairing of solo shows: John Kissick’s manic, multifaceted paintings and Gwen MacGregor’s calm, geoscience-toned fieldwork.

  • Heat: Marvelous Meltdowns

    MKG127 acknowledges Toronto’s above-average summer temperatures with “Heat,” an exhibition that ironically offers some cool respite while displaying works that evoke bubbling tar, existential crises and blistering guitar solos.
