The exhibit What Painting Can Be features the work of 2010 alumnus Sean Mills ('10) and Studio Technicians Camrose Ducote (sculpture), Yang Hong (painting) and Carolyn Mount (technical services).

The exhibit runs from December 15, 2012 to January  31, 2013 at the Elissa Cristall Gallery.

In the Hastings Street window of the Audain Gallery, Vancouver artist Kathy Slade (founding editor, Emily Carr University Press + Manager, READ Bookstore) asks the question, Is Everything Going to Be Alright? This seemingly direct question tests public sentiment at a moment of general global uncertainty and at a moment when Vancouver is coming out of its Olympic daze and is rebranding and refiguring its relationship to nature as a green city based on sustainable urbanism.

Please join Murray Guy Gallery and Emily Carr University Press for the launch of Odessa Staircase Redux at The Armory fair.

Odessa Staircase Redux is a kind of flipbook revisiting the well-known film sequence from Sergei Eisenstein’s Battleship Potemkin. The first frame of every cut is hand-redrawn in black ink. The ensuing series of 153 ink drawings is re-organized to form a typology of camera angles and subject matter that in turn creates a new animation of the scene in the mind of the viewer.
