SUMMARY:Wallflower Paintings by Corine van Hoeve
DESCRIPTION:Based in Dundas\, Ontario\, Corine began actively drawing and painting in mid-career after taking courses at the Dundas Valley School of Art (DVSA). Having previously obtained degrees from the University of Guelph\, Western University\, and University of Toronto\, she has\, at different times\, worked in finance and education as well as project management. When not out painting or sketching from life or en plein air\, Corine works from her studio at the Cotton Factory in Hamilton\, Ontario. \nInstagram: @cvanhoeve\nWebsite: cvanhoeve.ca\nEmail: cvanhoeve@gmail.com \nWhile artwork is made to be viewed and commented upon\, a ‘wallflower’ is\, by definition\, the opposite. It describes an individual who\, though present at parties and gatherings\, actively avoids direct connection with others. My paintings embody this duality: encouraging people to look while at the same time not necessarily returning the gaze. On another level\, they are studies in observation\, perhaps a little like a wallflower might carefully scrutinize who’s the life of the party from the corner of the room. I analyze value\, colour and form in terms of scale and composition\, seeking to create some kind of balance and harmony to ease the discomfort of being seen. \nApril 21 – May 21\, 2025 \nArtist Reception: May 3rd\, 2-4pm \n3rd Floor Gallery Wyndham Art Supplies 125 Wyndham St N\, Guelph ON \nGallery Hours: M-F 3-5pm\, Sat 12-5 \nFor more info click here.

SUMMARY:Art Gallery of Guelph Summer Exhibition Launch
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Thursday\, May 22 at 6:30 pm to celebrate the launch of the Art Gallery of Guelph’s summer season with the opening of two new exhibitions: 155\,578 and Fuzzy Thinking. \n155\,578 features the work of over 50 artists with connections to Guelph\, selected through an open call. The exhibition also includes a large-scale participatory installation that invites visitors to contribute\, creating an evolving work shaped by community input. \nFuzzy Thinking brings together contemporary textile-based works that critically explore history and memory through material\, process\, and form. Embracing the tactile and the conceptual\, the exhibition offers softer\, more intuitive pathways to understanding the past and imagining the future. \nEnjoy an evening of art\, conversation\, and community as we launch a season shaped by collaboration\, reflection\, and creative engagement. Admission is free and all are welcome.
