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:Big Ideas Lecture and Exhibition Launch: What Remains
DESCRIPTION:Launching the ArtsEverywhere festival organized and presented by Musagetes\, join the artists of the El Paso-based What Remains Collective (Dr. Adriana Alvarez\, Iris Morales\, Mabel Weber\, and Monica Lozano) for a guided conversation about documenting the stories of immigrant families as well as the belongings abandoned by individuals over the course of attempts to cross the political border into the United States. \nThe conversation will be followed by an opening reception for the collective’s exhibition What Remains at the Art Gallery of Guelph\, that brings together photography\, video\, and La Trenza – an evolving installation that braids together the belongings and stories of humans in transit\, immigrants\, asylum seekers\, displaced families\, men\, women\, and children who have experienced the journey of crossing a border\, from the heavily militarized to the nearly invisible. Representing individual experiences through the objects they carry with them\, this piece is made of materials recovered from the desert of Ciudad Juarez that were found half buried. \nImage detail: Monica Lozano\, The Cemetery\, 2022\, detail\, digital photograph.

SUMMARY:Choice and Chance
DESCRIPTION:Nancy MacNabb of Guelph and Patrice Baker of Fergus are teaming together for a show of acrylic and mixed media abstract art held at Headwaters Arts Gallery in Alton\, Ontario\, just south of Orangeville. See large and small artistic pieces that engage viewers by emotion and curiosity\, by the heart and the mind.

SUMMARY:Retrospectacle: A Garage Sale of Artistic Works
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition aims to provide an opportunity for artists with old work that is taking up space in their studio\, falls outside of “recency” submission criteria for exhibition opportunities\, or is maybe just a super experimental piece that falls outside of their current body of work that they would like to have the opportunity to sell. \nShow is up March 12th to April 12th\, Tue-Fri 11am to 4pm staff permitting. \nPlease support the local artists in the show by coming out to the closing reception April 4th\, 5 to 7pm.

SUMMARY:Autoscopy Sophia Oppel Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Solo Exhibition by Sophia Oppel presented by Ed Video Media Arts Centre from February 24th – March 22nd. ‘ \n“As biometric capture and datafication are increasingly required to access our digitized surround\, bodies are rendered knowable and transparent by corporate entities. Autoscopy continues Oppel’s investigation into the implications of bodily transparency and the hostile affirmation leveraged by late-stage capitalism. Autoscopy is a spatial video installation\, coalescing around a terminal built to replicate the shape of a commercial 3D scanning booth\, and affixed with laser-cut 2-way mirror. The projected imagery of two videos refract through this mirrored enclosure\, oscillating between portrayals of a body as a faulty collection of 3D scans and CGI anatomical models in varying states of layered visibility. In a narrative voice-over that merges intimate poesis with body horror\, the process of being 3D scanned is described as erotic\, invasive\, and yet depersonalizing.”

SUMMARY:Improvising Communities: A Retrospective Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The Emergence of a New Field of Interdisciplinary Inquiry\n\nOctober 16–21\, 2023\nMassey Hall\, University of Guelph \nImprovising Communities: A Retrospective Exhibition marks the celebration of a significant milestone in the emerging field of Critical Studies in Improvisation.  \nThe founding of the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation (IICSI) at the University in Guelph was facilitated by a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Partnership Grant\, awarded in 2012. The Partnership Grant set in motion a decade of robust research and creative outputs generated by a team of scholars\, researchers\, community partners\, and arts practitioners on a local\, national\, and international scale.  \nThis exhibition illustrates the formalization of improvisation as a field of academic inquiry over the ten+ year period of the SSHRC Partnership Grant in which the institute was named (2012 to 2022) and narrates how IICSI has evolved into a central source for the collection and dissemination of research on the social implications of improvisational practices.   \nImprovising Communities invites you to explore\, inquire\, investigate\, and play with a curated selection of sample projects generated by IICSI’s network during this extended period\, from practice-based community programming to accessible new media technologies. The exhibition encourages you to consider one of IICSI’s central research questions: can improvisation be a vehicle for positive social change?  \nThis exhibition takes places October 16–21\, 2023 in Massey Hall\, at the University of Guelph. \n  \nThe Hand You Are Dealt: Improvising the Archive\nIn late 2022\, IICSI approached Studio Oleomingus\, a partner on their new SSHRC grant “Improvising Futures\,” about creating a video game which showcases the last ten years of IICSI’s research findings. Enthusiastic and up for the task\, Studio Oleomingus and IICSI set to work to determine the format\, content\, and technical specifications of the game\, meeting monthly with an advisory committee to talk through ideas\, troubleshoot potential issues\, and narrow in on a delightful player experience.\nAfter almost a full year of collaboration\, what emerges is a freeform digital toy: a collection of playing cards that contain within them a variety of media\, including audio tracks\, documentaries\, short films\, photographs\, recorded performances\, artwork\, and more\, from different research and creative outputs generated by IICSI and their network over the past decade. We proudly present to you\, The Hand You Are Dealt: Improvising the Archive. \nHosted on your web browser\, the game is accessible to anyone with an internet connection\, and it invites players to discover the intricacies of IICSI’s diverse array of researchers\, partners\, and community organizations\, all while learning a little bit about the institute’s research and activities.  \nIICSI and Studio Oleomingus hope the game will be as fun to play as it is informative\, and hope the game leads to a wider conversation about improvisation in the exploration of digital archives and interactive art. \nThe video game will premiere at our exhibition opening night\, on Monday\, October 16 at 7 pm at Massey Hall\, University of Guelph. \nExhibition Schedule\nMonday\, October 16\n7–9 pm | Opening Reception \nJoin IICSI for the opening reception of Improvising Communities: A Retrospective Exhibition at Massey Hall\, University of Guelph! The evening will be divided into two parts: a special premiere of our video game The Hand You are Dealt: Improvising the Archive and talk back with Studio Oleomingus creators Dhruv Jani and Sushant Chakraborty\, and an exclusive screening of the documentary Cape Spear Klang (2021) and talk back with Directors Ellen Waterman and Diego Pani. Light refreshments will be provided. Massey Hall is a physically accessible venue. \nPlease RSVP to attend!

SUMMARY:"dreamscapes" by Kira Alexanian at Wyndham’s 3rd Floor Gallery
DESCRIPTION:dreamscapes in Wyndham’s 3rd Floor Gallery in Guelph (125 Wyndham Street North\, Guelph ON)\n\nThe show will be on from September 5th to 30th and the opening reception is Thursday\, September 7th from 6-8pm. Light refreshments will be served.\n\nAbout the Show:\nIt is no surprise that the human experience is too often cruel. Just when your footing is found and you begin to take root\, an unexpected shift sends you flailing and face down in the bristly undergrowth.  Dreams are a welcome escape. The boundless and vibrant scenes of the mind’s eye are reminders of the importance of make-believe. In dreamscapes\, I make tangible the glimmering illustrations of my own inner fantasies. These works are formulated without physical reference matter. Instead\, I tap into my brain’s archive of idealistic environments\, with movements of the paintbrush gently urging me far into their otherworldly delights. Fine details and animated lines further reflect the swirling possibilities of a daydream – a place free of the strain of waking life.
