SUMMARY:Artworks Gallery Guelph: The Space Between Art Show.
DESCRIPTION:ARTWORKS GALLERY GUELPH \n404 YORK ROAD \nGUELPH\,  ONTARIO \nMAY 6 – JULY 7\, 2024 \nWhat is “the space between”? For some it’s the distance between two objects. For others\, it’s the concept of negative space. And for yet others\, it’s the emotional distance between two people. Drop by Artworks Gallery Guelph (404 York Road) to see how our gallery artists have explored this theme. Patti Collins is presenting her sculptures in light along with highly textured abstract paintings. Scenes of nature and waterscapes have captured the imagination of chalk pastel artist\, Suzanne Wakefield. Nancy Farrell ‘s dramatic abstracts create splashes of colour and movement\, with themes of   outer space and bucolic forest paths. Sharyn Seibert has pushed boundaries by creating a glass and canvas installation as well as reminisces around travel and beloved countries.  We are also excited to showcase the work of Kate Rogers\, our Featured Artist who has installed a series of 6 paintings that investigate her development from childhood beliefs to a present reality of confidence and artistic fervour. This collection  has been one of the most challenging shows to date and we’d love for you to visit.  We are open daily from 10am to 4pm. \n

SUMMARY:hot dreams - new exhibition at Ed Video
DESCRIPTION:hot dreams \nAdryn Gibbs\, Eli Nolet \nCurated by Adrien Crossman \nJuly 5th – August 2nd\, 2024 \nEd Video Media Arts Centre\, 404 York Rd\, Guelph\, ON N1E 3H4 \nHours: Monday\, Tuesday\, Thursday and Friday\, 10 am – 5 pm \nOpening Reception:\nFriday\, July 5th\, 2024\, from 7 pm – 9 pm \n  \nhot dreams brings together the work of Ardyn Gibbs and Eli Nolet\, two emerging trans and non binary artists exploring queer affect through new media and materiality. Queer desire\, safety\, memory\, joy\, and visibility exist as throughlines in these works that reach for physical spaces of queer belonging/gathering that have for some only existed as a fantasy or imagining. Employing both physical and digital material references to objects such as chains\, metal piercings\, and the reflective sheen reminiscent of that cast by leather or latex\, the works in hot dreams refer to the queer body – or rather the absence of queer bodies. \nAbout the Artists:\nEli Nolet (they/them) is a queer trans settler-Indigenous artist and arts worker from the occupied territories of the Erie\, Neutral\, Huron-Wendat\, Haudenosaunee\, and Mississaugas (otherwise known as hamilton\, ontario). Eli’s practice explores identity and selfhood through new media activations of static image and text work. Across their practice\, Eli is interested in investigating the many layered histories of queer culture and desire\, and questioning the binaries of visible/invisible\, normative/transgressive. \nArdyn Gibbs (they/them) is a queer and trans\, settler-Indigenous (Mohawk) artist and arts worker located on the territories of the Haudenosaunee\, Anishnaabe\, and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation otherwise known as Hamilton\, ON. Using digital new media technologies Ardyn’s work explores themes of queer futurism\, digital dreaming\, and visibility/legibility of queer bodies in public spaces. Ardyn is passionate about collective dreaming\, placekeeping\, and fostering meaningful connections. \nAdrien Crossman (they/them) is a queer and non-binary white settler artist\, educator\, and curator currently residing on the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe in so called Hamilton\, Ontario. They hold an MFA in Visual Art from the University of Windsor (2018)\, and a BFA in Integrated Media with a Minor in Digital and Media Studies from OCAD University (2012). Crossman is interested in the affective qualities of queerness\, investigating how queerness can be felt through specific aesthetics and sensibilities. Adrien co-founded and co-runs the online arts publication off centre and is an Assistant Professor in the School of the Arts at McMaster University. \nAccessibility\nOn the side of the 404 York Rd building\, there is an accessible ramp that leads to the building’s back door. Head straight through the hall to reach Ed Video’s side door. Parking is available along the side of the building. The parking spot closest to the ramp is reserved for those with accessibility needs. Note that parking spots near other buildings in the area are not publicly available spots. \nAcknowledgement\nFounded in 1976\, Ed Video Media Arts Centre is a charitable artist-run centre\, whose mission is to foster the creation\, exhibition\, and appreciation of media arts.Ed Video is situated on the traditional lands of the Attawandaron\, Anishinaabek\, and Haudenosaunee Peoples and the treaty lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit. The Ed Video Media Arts Centre acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts\, the Ontario Arts Council\, the City of Guelph\, and the Trillium Foundation.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception Paul Nadeau: Gravel is the New Gold
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the launch of the exhibition Gravel is the New Gold\, featuring the work of artist Paul Nadeau. Drawing together the visual language of cottage-country ephemera with references to practices of measuring\, mapping\, and surveying\, Nadeau’s hyperreal paintings incorporate trompe l’oeil to underscore a certain perception of the Canadian wilderness that has both depended on and accelerated the continuous dispossession of Indigenous lands for resource extraction and leisure. \nThis exhibition represents the culmination of two years of focused work in the University of Guelph’s Master of Fine Arts program. The Art Gallery of Guelph’s annual exhibitions of graduating MFA students are presented in conjunction with the School of Fine Art and Music at the University of Guelph.

SUMMARY:Yours in Native Spirit: Richard Bedwash exhibition tour
DESCRIPTION:Explore the vivid paintings and symbol-rich stories of Anishinaabe artist Richard Bedwash presented this summer in the exhibition\, Yours in Native Spirit. This conversational walkthrough with co-curators Shauna McCabe and Colinda Clyne explores the connection between Bedwash’s life experiences and the community of Guelph. Deeply impacted by the colonialism of incarceration from his experiences of residential school to his term in the Guelph Correctional Centre\, Bedwash’s expressive paintings represent a reclamation of knowledge\, drawing on traditional stories and oral histories that he was intent on preserving and passing on. All are welcome; no registration required.
