RELATED STORIES

  • When the Mood Strikes Us: Altered States

    From impressionist predilections for absinthe to Warhol’s mind-altering Factory parties, narcotics have long been affiliated with “bad boy” avant-garde artists. Now, a new group exhibition at Winnipeg’s PLATFORM explores how artists currently represent “the poetics and politics of narcotics.”

  • Canadian Art Gallery Hop: Super Saturday, Delicate Discussions

    Whether you call it “lessness,” “unmonumental,” or simply “life on Mars,” it’s clear there’s a predominating feeling of fragility in the art world right now. This Saturday, the Canadian Art Gallery Hop initiates a conversation on this important trend—and other related ones—with a free panel discussion and a dozen gallery talks.

  • Michel de Broin: Emote Control

    Berlin- and Montreal-based artist Michel de Broin mines intriguing common ground between primal urges and mass communication in “USURE MENTAL,” an exhibition of new sculpture and photo works in Montreal.

  • 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.
