    Viewing Distance

    Artists: Judy Bowyer, Bart Gazzola, Laura Kinzel, Joanne Lyons, Ellen Moffat, Stuart Mueller, Ian Rawlinso
    Closing Reception: Thursday, Aug. 16th at 7:30pm
    This is a joint exhibition project with the Estevan Art Gallery and Museum, The Little Gallery, the Moose Jaw Art Museum, and the Swift Current National Exhibition Centre. For the four participating galleries, this show is an important step towards the pooling of resources and the process of collaboration. The goal of this joint exhibition project is to take stock of current art production throughout Saskatchewan, to see which forces drive contemporary art expression and to ascertain if there are trends in content or media. As the curators reviewed the submissions, it became clear that a number of distinctly different shows were possible. We settled on the overarching topic of Viewing Distance and followed this train of thought with our selection. The exhibition presents artists' practices which reflect on distances - either originating in technological processes and our relationship to technologies, and/or exploring emotional and psychological distant states.
