CURRENT AND UPCOMING EXHIBITIONS



CITIES IN MIND
November 15 – December 4, 2011
Gallery Hours: Wednesday - Saturday, 12:00 – 5:00pm
Featuring: Wieslaw Michalak, Don Snyder and Andrew Williamson

Cities In Mind is a collaboration by three artists who explore the human connection with cities – here in Toronto, and around the world.

Wieslaw Michalak looks at the city topographically. The photographs presented in this series represent a metaphorical return to the idea of 'city landscape' as a human work.

Don Snyder examines the built landforms as experienced in the areas still occupied by nature. These images presented were made over a period of years, looking first at some long-settled parts of the city and later, by looking into Toronto's many and fascinating ravines.

Andrew Williamson's work uses Michalak's and Snyder's photographs, as well as other sources, to look at areas in the city as typologies.

INTRA MUROS I
February 2 – 4, 2012
Performance installation in progress: February 2 & 3, 2:00pm – 7:00pm
Closing performance action: February 3 at 8:00pm (with reception following)
Artist talk: February 4, 1:00pm – 3:00pm

FADO Performance Art Centre presents Intra Muros I: a performance installation by Martine Viale

Through self-displacement, successive actions and minimal materials, Intra Muros I proposes a sense of contemplation, as the artist gradually tries to accumulate meanings through a constant folding and unfolding of images. Pursuing a process based on persistence, Viale's work suggests multiple stages of working, rather then presenting a completed product. Transformation through time and accumulation plays a major role in the elaboration of the work. The artist's body becomes a "doing body" engaged in creating, layering and collecting traces of actions, which progressively transform the space and the artist herself.

Martine Viale is a Montreal based performance artist. Viale creates installations using the process of performance. In her work she values time, a direct engagement with the space and process action, allowing her to develop many perspectives at once. Her work has been presented in Montreal, and across Canada and internationally in Brazil, New York, Boston, The Philippines, France, Belgium, Serbia, Scotland, Spain and Denmark.
