Charles H. Scott Gallery

The Charles H. Scott Gallery is pleased to present a performance by Scottish artist Dave Allen for the opening of the exhibition titled The Sound I'm Looking For.

Please join us at READ Books for the launch of Andrew Dadson’s artist book Visible Heavens from 1850 – 2008. In this striking volume, Vancouver artist Andrew Dadson presents a photocopy of a found star map from 1850 and then one subsequent, slowly degrading, copy for each year leading up to 2008, documenting the changes from an accurate nineteenth century vision of the stars to an abstracted blackness depicting “heaven” today. Edited by Kathy Slade.

OPENING RECEPTION Friday July 25 at 7:30pm

ARTIST TALK Saturday July 26 at 1pm

The Charles H. Scott Gallery is pleased to present Strippers, an exhibition by Charlotte Cullinan and Jeanine Richards. Strippers is curated by Cate Rimmer and is the London (UK)-based artists’ first solo exhibition in Canada.

The Charles H. Scott Gallery is pleased to present TELLING DETAILS: The Architecture of Clifford Wiens. Curated by Vancouver architectural historian and critic Trevor Boddy and organized by the Mendel Art Gallery, the exhibition is a retrospective of the work of Clifford Wiens, a key figure in developing architecture in dialogue with both landscape and technology-the heart of current design thinking in Western Canada. In Arthur Erickson's estimation: "Not only is he Saskatchewan's finest architect ever, but Clifford Wiens' work is of international importance."

This event has been postponed until further notice. Please check back to the website for the new date of this event. Thank you.

READ Books/Charles H. Scott Gallery and the SBC Gallery of Contemporary Art are pleased to announce the publication of The Banal.

The Banal is a catalogue of three exhibitions curated by Cate Rimmer for the Liane and Danny Taran Gallery of the Saidye Bronfman Centre for the Arts (now the SBC Gallery of Contemporary Art) in Montreal.
