Correspondents
Joint Project with AKA Gallery
Collaborations between Prince Albert and Saskatoon Artists
Artists:
Chris Ferchuk and Terry Billings
Kathleen Houston and Marlene Yuzak
Dana Wareing Popescul and Annemarie Buchmann-Gerber
"Correspondents" is a collaboration between AKA Artist-Run Centre in Saskatoon and the Little Gallery in Prince Albert. This project is intended to create dialogue and support between artists in these two communities, resulting in a group exhibition to be presented in both cities.
Artists from both communities were invited to participate and linked with a partner on a joint project that could take many forms (i.e. physically working on the same piece together, exploring the same subject individually but with a relationship between the pieces, sending pieces back and forth and both altering the same piece). The projects could be cross media as well.
This exhibition forges stronger links between the two arts communities and enhances individual exchange. At the same time, it explores the implications of the collaborative process.
