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:Walking as Remapping: Night Walk in the Moth Garden
DESCRIPTION:Join the artists for a nighttime walk to the garden under the full moon where participants will spend time observing the vibrant world active during the nighttime as well as their own sensory responses to the night. Guided by the artists\, participants will explore how to shift their sensory perception\, and consider how other beings\, like moths\, sense the world. \nParticipants will meet in the parking lot and the walk to the garden is about 15 minutes along a gravel roadway with mowed grass paths which have some uneven surfaces and slight to moderate inclines. Because the garden and walk involve encounters with other beings in their own sensory worlds\, please avoid the use of insect repellants and other scented products. Bug suits will be available\, or you are welcome to bring your own. We also recommend wearing long sleeves. \nPlease check your email in the afternoon if the weather looks ominous as we will be in touch as soon as possible if we plan to reschedule. We are tentatively holding June 23 at 9:00 pm as a rain date. Otherwise\, we will be outside for the program and so encourage you to dress for the weather with comfortable footwear for walking. Bring your curiosity\, creativity\, and a sense of adventure! \nThis event is presented by the Art Gallery of Guelph in partnership with the Department of Geography and School of English and Theatre Studies with the support of the University of Guelph Wellness@Work program. \nRegister now: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/walking-as-remapping-night-walk-in-the-moth-garden-tickets-917049127627?aff=oddtdtcreator  \nImage detail: Lisa Hirmer and Christina Kingsbury\, Moth Garden\, 2023\, materials variable.

SUMMARY:Summer Season Exhibitions Launch

Additional parking is available in the University of Guelph campus parking lot P23 with access from College Avenue and MacDonald Street. \nImage detail: Richard Bedwash\, Sweat Lodge\, 1977\, acrylic on canvas.

SUMMARY:Xuan Ye: I OWNED\, A TONGUE
DESCRIPTION:Xuan Ye: I OWNED\, A TONGUE\nMay 25th – June 22nd\, 2024 \nEd Video Media Arts Centre \n404 York Rd\, Guelph\, ON N1E 3H4 \nHours: Monday\, Tuesday\, Thursday and Friday\, 10 am – 5 pm \n\nOpening Reception:  Saturday\, May 25th\, 2024\, from 2 pm – 4 pm\, Ed Video Media Arts Centre\, 404 York Rd\, Guelph\, ON N1E 3H4 \nJoint Launch: A Cyberarchaeology of Checkpoints and EveryLetterCyborg Bites: \nSaturday\, June 8th\, 2024\, from 2 pm – 4 pm\, Art Metropole\, 896 College Street\, Toronto\, ON M6H 1A4 \nArtist Statement\nI OWNED\, A TONGUE is about hacking the alphabetic writing apparatus as a technology in an algorithmic narration of cybernetic feedback and data economies. In the exhibition\, the software writes on its own\, interfaces invite you to decipher and gesture\, neon signs emit ringing sounds while scrolling antonym pairs\, and speech voices are indigestible data that insist on unlearning. Six works of digital poetry\, that are six modes of perceptual rerouting\, synthesize unstable and untranslatable signifiers that confuse yet connect us. Meanings dangle in the collective dreams we are all in\, where networked machines relay signals from the other side of reality. Lost tongues are found anew as contexts are displaced\, detached\, and divinated from their normalized mundane. \nAbout EveryLetterCyborg Bites Artist Multiple (Edition of 100)\nEveryLetterCyborg Bites are toothy fortune cookies offering cryptic divinations in camouflage as heteroglossia. Each bite is one message that is one tweet from the Twitter bot @qletrcyborg (2018 – 2022). Each tweet contains words sourced from Donna Haraway’s A Cyborg Manifesto (1985) as its corpus. Each message is encrypted with a word randomly generated from an online database of English dictionaries. Each bite casts a post-cyberfeminist spell\, enchanting the already predicted fortune with the allure of data noise and indeterministic codes. \n  \n \nAbout the Artists and Contributors\nXuan Ye 叶轩 works across art\, music and technology. X is interested in making noise as a generative space to evoke the dissonant\, untranslatable and illegible within more-than-human entanglements. They often involve improvisation\, computation and fiction to compose software\, images\, installations\, performances and editions. Their work has appeared at the MOCA Toronto\, UCCA Center for Contemporary Art (Shanghai)\, Venice Architecture Biennale\, Peer to Space (Berlin)\, MUTEK Montreal\, Art Gallery of Ontario\, and Goethe-Institut (Beijing)\, among others. Their multifaceted practice has been featured and reviewed in Canadian Art (Winter 2020)\, ArtAsiaPacific(Issue. 111)\, KUNSTFORUM (Bd. 257)\, Musicworks (Issue. 136)\, and Bandcamp Daily (Best Experimental Albums). \nMujie Li is an experimental writer and a doctoral researcher of digital media and culture at the University of Sussex (United Kingdom). Her research explores how literary aspects (such as writing\, reading\, text and language) in digital and computational technological conditions work together to shape digital aesthetics. She is the author of the novella Mirage Time (2017\, published by Dostoyevsky Wannabe)\, and the article On Digital Aesthetics: Sense-Data and Atmospheric Language (2023\, published by Electronic Book Review). \nJason Doell is vital to Canada’s experimental music/sound community. His interdisciplinary practice includes site/context-specific works\, live coding\, and signal-chain manipulation. Doell has created several significant works\, including “Beneath a Landscape”\, a 30-minute subway piece commissioned by INTERsection festival (CA)\, the interactive online work “TURNONANDBENOTALONE” presented by Music Gallery (CA)\, and the algorithmic piece “tbtastiuth” commissioned by MaerzMusik (DE). Doell has worked with international artists such as Quatuor Bozzini\, Continuum Contemporary Music\, Pulitzer Prize-winner Raven Chacon\, and legendary guitarist John Dieterich. Doell’s new album\, Becoming In Shadows ~ Of Being Touched\, was released on American imprint Whited Sepulchre. \nExhibition Catalogue\nDownload here. \nAccessibility \nOn the side of the 404 York Rd building\, there is an accessible ramp that leads to the building’s back door.

SUMMARY:Pronto Plate Lithography Workshop at Otherwise Studios
DESCRIPTION:Learn traditional lithography techniques on an intaglio press using the pronto plate lithography method during this 2-part workshop\, May 16 & 23! \nLearn how to create an image\, work with greasy & oil-sensitive materials when creating artwork\, how to affix your image on your pronto plate\, and print an edition of prints to take home. \nLithography is a printmaking process based on the concept that oil and water don’t mix. The printmaker draws or paints using oily materials\, onto a flat stone\, prepared metal plate\, or polyester plate. This image is made “permanent” through a series of chemical reactions and then printed using oil-based ink. The pronto plate method is a safer method without the harmful chemicals required for traditional stone lithography. \nTo ensure willing participants have access to educational opportunities\, please email Ahmri at info@otherwisestudios.com if you face financial barriers. Space permitting\, we can provide complimentary spots in this workshop.

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:Community Fabric
DESCRIPTION:WHAT IS COMMUNITY FABRIC?\nPresented by Art Not Shame\, the Community Fabric project is a free\, ten-week community-arts series in which participants work together to create a community quilt\, while building social connections and developing skills to support their mental health and wellbeing. Each week the quilt will grow as community members explore mark-making through textiles as local artist facilitators guide them through teachings around appliqué\, embroidery\, hand-sewing\, printmaking\, and quilting. In collaboration with the Guelph Neighbourhood Support Coalition and the Guelph Civic Museum\, participants will co-create a quilt that shares stories and experiences from neighbourhood groups across the City of Guelph. The quilt will be housed in Art Not Shame’s new community arts hub\, as a representation of the community members who will use the space and a physical symbol of inclusivity. The quilt will also be included in an exhibition at the Guelph Civic Museum in the Fall of 2024. \nNo experience necessary. This program is open to folks of all ages (children are welcome with their grown-up)! \nAll spaces are all ground floor and are physically accessible.

SUMMARY:Composition – Let’s Break The Rules!  Mon. Feb 26\, 2024 – Online class
DESCRIPTION:Composition – Let’s Break The Rules!\nOnline class\, live via Zoom\nMonday\, Feb. 26. 6:30 to 9:00 pm EDT\nAges 16+ \nRating: Beginner to advanced. \nInstructor:  Sylvia Galbraith \nComposition…  a concept that often seems to include rigid rules and standard ways of arranging the elements in your photograph.  Are your photographs ordinary rather than exceptional?  Does your work look like everyone else’s? How is it that any two people might interpret a scene in a completely different ways\, and is one more “correct” than the other? How do we evaluate our own photographs to determine if they are successful beyond our own sentimental opinion? \nSo many questions\, but this workshop will help you find the answers! We’ll look at unusual ways to compose your scene\, considering object placement\, edges/borders and framing\, creating depth\, and more.  By examining the work of renowned photographers\, we’ll determine why their images stand out.  Taught live via Zoom\, we’ll also play with some practical exercises during the class to get the creative mind working\, and students will have access to the class recording for one month. \nFee: $95.00 + HST \n Register Online or call 519-787-7040 to register by phone.
