SUMMARY:SPLENDID ISOLATION at the Elora Centre for the Arts
DESCRIPTION:From May 26th to July 24th\, 2022 I will be having a solo exhibition of my new painting series\, “Splendid Isolation”\, at the Elora Centre of the Arts this summer. \n“Splendid Isolation” is a series of paintings created in my studios in Elmira\, ON and Bear River\, N.S.\, from 2020 to 2021\, exploring themes of isolation and transience during the surreal time of a global pandemic\, unveiling the beauty that arises from creating in solitude. \nI’m very pleased to be exhibiting it in Ontario this year\, particularly since this series was funded by the Region of Waterloo Arts Fund.  Many thanks to the RWAF for funding this project! \nI’m delighted to be showing my work in this beautiful gallery space. The last time I showed my work there (“Solas agus Scath” in 2009) it was a great experience in every way. \nThe opening reception for “Splendid Isolation” will be on Saturday\, May 28th from 2 to 4 p.m.\,  and there will be a traditional Irish music session. \nThere will be a full colour catalogue printed to document the show. \nI hope to see you! \n\n

SUMMARY:Stretched to the Sun - Exhibition by Paige Quinn
DESCRIPTION:Stop by the 10C Gallery (42 Carden St.)  July 17-28 to view the wonderful paintings by Paige Quinn. \nPaige Quinn is a Guelph-based multidisciplinary artist. Her artwork explores ideas of reuniting and reconnecting to nature through relationships and bodily transformation.  She has recently completed an artist residency at Artscape Gibraltar Point\, and has been working on her artwork in her studio in Guelph.\n\nShow description:\n \nStretched in the Sun is a reflection on personal connection to the earth. Paige explores the relationship between figuration and abstraction\, exposing the under layers of her paintings in a way which invites chance into the artworks. The figures in her paintings are caught in the act of transformation and spiritual catharsis as they move and blend with their background in a process to become closer spiritually with the unknown.

SUMMARY:‘Connection & Response’ Elora Centre for the Arts
DESCRIPTION:New gallery exhibition reminds us that the most important aspect of our lives is\nour sense of connection. The Elora Centre for the Arts is set to launch a new exhibition in their gallery\, by award-winning Northern Ontario artist Bruce Cull. The exhibition\, entitled ‘Connection & Response’ reminds us that we are participants in\, and part of the physical world we inhabit. Bruce Cull’s work expresses his fear of lost connection with each other\, with our environment and a hope that we will rediscover old\, new and better forms of connection.\n“I live in a geographically isolated place” says Cull. “Yet I feel less isolated than many people in crowded urban environments”. Many of the objects incorporated into his work have been salvaged from the land he lives on. His stewardship of the land speaks directly to his connection with it. Bruce Cull lives in rural North East Ontario\, near Earlton in the Timiskaming District\, about 60km south of Kirkland Lake and almost 600km north of Elora. He lives on 200 acres\, in a studio that was once a granary for cattle. Cull has always lived in rural areas\, which as nourished his lifetime environmental awareness that has impacted his artistic practise. As Cull explains\, “we begin our lives connecting to our parent\, our siblings and gradually extending those relationships outward to a greater world of friends\, co-workers and others whom we encounter on this journey. Most of all\, we reach for mutually nourishing intimacy in partner relationship and this connection of love brings us hope and strength”\, says Cull.\n“My hope is that the Centre Wellington community and beyond will engage in a dialogue with this exhibition\, finding meaning and connections to their own lives” says Cull.\nThe exhibition will run in the main gallery from July 28 – September 11\, 2022\nAn opportunity to meet the artist will be held on the final day of the exhibition – everyone is welcome to attend the artist reception on Sunday September 11th from 2-4PM in the gallery at the Elora Centre for the Arts. \nFor more information:\nVisit our website at https://eloracentreforthearts.ca/connection-and-response-exhibition-by-bruce-cull/\nGallery and artisan shop summer hours:\nWednesdays & Thursdays 10AM – 4PM\, Fridays & Saturdays 10AM – 5PM and Sundays 12-4PM \nContact:\nAnnette Hansen\, curator\ncurator@ecfta.ca\n416 694-0156
