RELATED STORIES

  • Jed Lind: Starlight and Water

    Los Angeles artist Jed Lind is inspired by everything from Buckminster Fuller’s utopian legacy to the provisional architecture of coastal societies. In this brief video, Canadian Art editor Richard Rhodes offers his thoughts on Lind’s current solo show in Toronto.

  • Shari Hatt: Clowning Around

    Having taken on such diverse subjects as celebrity dogs, Liberace’s closet and circus sideshows, Halifax photo artist Shari Hatt now turns her lens to clowns. The resulting portraits mix sharp formalism with a compelling study of self-fashioned, subversive identities. Coulrophobes beware.

  • Iain Baxter&: Ampersand, Mon Amour

    It’s rare to find a non-editor who feels passionately for punctuation. Yet key Canadian artist Iain Baxter& remains obsessed with the ampersand, which he sees as symbolizing collaboration. In new installation works (and an adjustment to his legal last name) Baxter& continues to mine his witty semiotic flair.

  • 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.
