Exhibitions

For hundreds of years, the Canadian landscape has been a prevailing subject for artists. Search/Research: contemporary landscapes focuses on diverse approaches artists take in searching and researching the landscape. Approaches range from David Pirrie's analysis of mountain terrain and Landon Mackenzie's (Associate Professor) exploration of history and geography, to Scott Massey's (03) interventions with nature in the urban environment and Blaine Campbell's (07) investigations into re-development projects such as those related to the 2010 Olympics.

The ECI Undergraduate Exhibition opens May 4 and runs through May 11 at our Granville Island campus, 1399/1400 Johnston Street. This exhibition features the work of over 350 graduating students.

Buildings are open to the public, 10am-6pm daily. For additional information, please call 604.844.3075.

David Khang (00) is exhibiting in a show entitled Grotesques along with Cheto Castellano, Irene Loughlin, Natalie Loveless, Naufus Ramirez-Figuroa and Coco Rico at A Space in Toronto.

Grotesques must be thought of as a site of experimentation, where risk is a seductive ally that pries open the aperture for possibility. In this collective exhibition, the grotesque is invoked as a realm of mutative, transitional, and transgressive potentiality.
