July 8 to August 21,
2010
Please join us for the opening on Thursday, July 8 from 7 to
9
p.m.
Site Exercises is an exhibition of
work by some of the [UTF-8?]gallery’s artists that takes the gallery space
itself as a point of departure. Though the [UTF-8?]exhibition’s premise might
provoke a charge of brazen navel gazing, the works as installed point to or play
with the overlooked or even historical aspects of a location made familiar as a
conventional white cube.
In referring to the architectural or spatial characteristics of
Susan Hobbs Gallery, the selected works in turn allow formal relationships to
unfold between them. In addition to works by Ian Carr-Harris, Axel Lieber and
others, Site Exercises includes new, site-specific works by Didier
Courbot and Patrick Howlett, as well as a re-presentation of a work by Brian
Groombridge that literally connects the two floors of the
gallery.
For more information please contact the
gallery or visit our
website.
Please note that on the evening of the
opening free parking is available west of Tecumseth Street at the lot for the
Niagara Street Public School - on the north side of Adelaide Street between
number 706 and 714. This offer does not apply during regular gallery
hours.
