David Alexander: A fifty year boots & brain journey in the land
November 03 - November 21, 2018
Opening reception: Saturday, Nov 3, 2018
"I have never subscribed to a repeated echo or a fundamental assumption that painting is over, forgotten or a relic of the past. Contemporary landscape is flourishing in new ways throughout the world. The idea of the painted wilderness or less trodden place is not a nostalgic notion. Thoreau's tiny ascetic cabin depicted in a bucolic setting of Eden or AY Jackson’s sleigh in the snow is nostalgic and overly romantic. Instead, the physical and psychological explorations of land and culture move us forward to create a viable contemporary painting. This construct, with a viewer to be a participant within an event of a landscape painting is only a single issue and is one of many tactical goals in the current genre of contemporary landscape painting." – David Alexander, 2018

Ducote & Nardelli: “SENTINENCE”
May 26 - June 13, 2018
Opening reception: May 26; 2-5PM
Artist talk at 3PM
‘Abstraction is a language that relies upon sensory impressions over written narratives. Abstract works create a unique internal dialogue with viewers through feeling, perceiving and experiencing the works subjectively. Through this external stimulus and internal reflection, ‘Sentience’, an exhibition featuring works by Camrose Ducote and Linda
Nardelli, invites you to consider and experience art through the five groups that compose a sentient being; matter, sensation, perception, mental formations and consciousness. Just like the works by Ducote and Nardelli, with their hidden and exposed elements that are produced out of an exploration of the abstract and the organic, ‘Sentience’ is about being more than a just physical form; it’s about embodying spirit.’ -written by Elizabeth Carr
Andre Petterson: “Brand”
May 05 - May 23, 2018
Sponsored by Prophecy Wine on Saturday, May 5 at reception.
Art Dealers Association of Canada Gallery Hop on Saturday (May 5); meet the artist at 415PM
“Advertising logos pepper tapestries of billboards, street signage and bus banners across urban landscapes in cities and rural villages all over the world.
Branding, an essential tool for marketing and identity construction in late capitalism, serves as a mode of communication rife with meaning about access, possession, and consumption. In Brand, Vancouver-based artist Andre Petterson explores themes of globalization and cultural homogenization through the dissemination of visual ephemera in the marketing campaigns of large western corporations such as Disney, Coca-Cola, and the Louis Vuitton Group.
Best known for his work blending painting and photography, Petterson exposes the breakdown of traditional distinctions between high and low, real and fake, old and new, urban and rural. Brand destabilizes the significance of recognizable cultural signifiers as they are re-contextualized and re-configured in different contexts; sometimes reinforcing wealth and status, other times receding to obscurity to the point of ironic absurdity.” - Raissa Alvero 2017

Brent Laycock: “Rhapsodies: Themes & Variations”
April 14 - May 02, 2018
Opening reception: Apr 14, 2018; 2-5PM
artist talk at 3PM
“When I am at my easel, the creative process involves balancing emotion and reason. The emotional part comes from being inspired by the things I love. And what I love to paint usually involves subject matter taken from the landscape of my home territory – Alberta. Once the subject has been determined, the next step is to dive into the canvas with a sense of enthusiastic abandon, laying down carefree, bold strokes in strong colours with little concern for detail or nuances of composition. This is the realm of free and passionate expression - a burst of flame with the hope that something glorious will appear….” – Brent Laycock

Nationally and internationally recognized, Vancouver-based artist Leslie Poole (b. 1942, Halifax, Nova Scotia) received his MFA from Yale University (New Haven, Connecticut) in 1970 and is now firmly established as one of Canada's most extensively exhibited artists.
Poole's paintings, drawings, and prints question life and art at the end/beginning of the Millennium through subjects as diverse as: male and female figures, still life, landscape, and self-portraits. Never content with doing only one thing well, his works range from realist to expressionist in style. His masterful expressionistic brushwork is directed by the assurance of years of experience in order to create works of deeply felt emotion. Expert paint handling and use of colour are his trademarks. Leslie believes that through the continuous exploration of him/herself, the artist symbolically creates the conditions of the human soul.

Artist Talk at 415PM with Simon Andrew on Saturday, May 13th for the Art Dealers Association of Canada (ADAC) National Art Hop in celebration of Canada's 150th Birthday!
These paintings of the land are less about accurately reproducing it and more about putting it's elements together in a way that has some meaning that can convince. It is about using the landscape as a tool for the real aim, which is that of making a painting that make sense. Once a painting makes sense it refers back to its origins but in a way that it new. It is given a new identity. Like an actor, their face may be familiar but their lines differ when they play different characters.
Trying to find a convincing language within a painting, and often combining more than one, stretches what is possible and pushes me into new realms, in a search for new solutions. I love this sort of exploration. - Simon Andrew
Jennifer Hornyak /// IDEAS in Colour

Preview of Show: Thursday, April 20, 2017
OPENING RECEPTION: Saturday, April 22, 2017: 2-5 PM
Show continues through to May 10, 2017
Jennifer Hornyak is known for her vivid and distinctly textured paintings that blur the line between figuration and abstraction. Drawing inspiration from her surroundings, she creates work that is both intimate and universal. Through both colour and texture, Hornyak builds a structure for each painting that emanates a still life motif.
“Regardless of my intentions, the final shape of each flowerpot is a direct reflection of my mood. The objects may be the same, but how I paint them entirely depends on how I feel about the world that day. ”
Hornyak uses areas of pale and deep hues to build up a well-integrated negative space that surrounds her freely-rendered floral still life subjects. The spontaneous brushwork and undiluted colour are reminiscent of the Fauve group of painters of a century ago.

WABI SABI/DARK MATTERS
According to chaos theory, general trends in the universe can be predicted by observation. However specific events cannot be predicted because they rely on an infinite number of unknown variables along the way. How very much like painting.
The dilemma: how to get from here (the chaos and excitement of the un-manifested vision) to there (the specific finished painting).
How to create a painting from a ‘chaos theory’ kind of process: a process that sometimes seems to thwart its own directions, that refuses to be predictable, that requires foresight to exploit unexpected accidents, that requires an occasional outrageous gesture to keep a piece vital……….but that also requires the courage to sacrifice small gems to the unity of the whole. Yet somehow, against the odds, a painting must feel inevitable and somehow finished in its final form.
THESE NEW WORKS
The ‘chaos’ struggles described above are certainly inherent in these new paintings. They are inspired by the spirit of the Wabi Sabi aesthetic/philosophy, an off-shoot of Buddhist thought. Wabi Sabi maintains three basic tenets: nothing is finished, nothing lasts, nothing is perfect.

Artist Statement:
Linda Nardelli and Diana Zasadny are artists that paint what they feel. They bring to life in abstract and impressionism the sensory element of what they behold in their surroundings—exploring landscape, the sea, and the spirit of trees. Both Artists’ works have a compelling nature that invoke a deep sense of peace, beauty and refinement, as they merge personal experience with visual integrity. These artists create visual stories depicting the incredible sensitivity that nature emits, provoking in the viewer a deepening experience of their own visual senses.

Preview of Show: Thursday, March 5, 2014
Opening reception: Saturday, March 7, 2015: 2 -5 PM
Show continues through to March 18, 2015
Kenneth Lochhead: Colour Spaces is an exuberant reflection of Lochhead's life-long love affair with colour. Colour saturates the large abstract canvases of the 1960s, and dances across the landscapes of later years. Representation and abstraction were, for him, simply different aspects of the artist's vocabulary. Plastic form, with its elements of colour, light, line, and space, was the essence of coherent visual expression.
From 1950, when he was appointed Director of Regina College's art school, to his death in 2006, Lochhead participated in over 300 national and international exhibitions and received over 18 major Canadian and international art commissions.
He was honoured with the Order of Canada in 1971, an Honorary Doctor of Laws from the University of Regina in 2001, and the Governor-General's Award in Visual and Media Arts in 2006. Through painting he found his own expression for love, joy, and the celebration of life.
