  • Until May 16: Mark Makers -
    First Nations Graphics Curated by Joane Cardinal Schubert,
    toured by the Mackenzie Art Gallery, Regina
    “Mark Makers First Nations Graphics is an exhibition of work by contemporary Saskatchewan First Nations artists which expands the notion of First Nations graphics to include mark making on any surface by scoring, beading, quillwork, pigment and collage application. ... In First People's traditional culture, representation is reality. The use of symbol or the act of drawing an image contains the responsibility and adherences of cultural memory -- image banks are "stored" knowledge, represented by visual vocabulary, recognized, held, and passed on by the people revered as "elders". Native images have never been abstractions of reality, as the hand that made the image was inextricably linked to an ongoing contemporized protocol." Joane Cardinal Schubert
    Participating artists: Richard Agecoutay, Henry Beaudry, Bob Boyer, Allen Clarke, Ruth Cuthand, Brian James, Michael Lonechild, Ann McLean, Gerald McMaster, Anquelique Merasty, Janice Morin, Sheila Orr, Edward Poitras, Sherry Farrell Racette, Celina Ritter, Allen Sapp, Jennifer Shaw, Bette Spence, Sarain Stump, Jerry Whitehead, David Williams, Morgan Wood.

  • May 21, 1999 - July 4, 1999
    New Work by Dana Popescul
    Opening Reception: June 8, at 8:00pm
    The rumpus room, a suburban phenomenon, often is the not "presentable" room (unlike the living room), but is well used and "comfortable". Dana Popescul's rumpus room has been ambiguously intensified. It is still a leisure space for sprawling around in front of the TV, but Popescul has modified the furniture with vibrant colours and intense decorative elements. She is including modified tourist souvenirs, (prefabricated mass produced memories), and family mementos purchased at garage sales and other icons/symbols of popular culture such as hockey trophies. The modifications are playful, humorous and intense, but underlying is Popescul's questioning of the objects' role in symbolizing significant events; pointing to the futility of our attempts to preserve the past.
