Kelly Richardson The Erudition

JANUARY 15 to MARCH 6

Opening Reception: Saturday, January 15

Artist walkthrough and remarks at 8 PM
Reception Sponsored by KPMG

In 2009, the Southern Alberta Art Gallery invited UK-based artist Kelly Richardson to participate in the Intersection International Residency program at the Gushul Studio in Blairmore, Alberta.  Richardson, whose video and photography-based practice puts its own spin on the traditions of Canadian landscape art, gathered reams of footage capturing the surrounding terrain. In post-production, all traces of human interference were removed, and skies, stars and trees were digitally constructed in an effort to heighten the appearance of being potentially otherworldly. Now complete, The Erudition is premiering simultaneously in three Canadian provinces with the full three-channel, high definition version debuting at SAAG. read more

mad soldiers

JANUARY 15 to MARCH 6

Opening Reception: Saturday, January 15

Artist walkthrough and remarks at 8 PM
Reception Sponsored by KPMG

My work is deeply rooted in the passing of memory through stories. The civil war in El Salvador has had a huge impact on my imagination, so a lot of my work deals with that time period, historically linked with feelings of loss and cultural memories of violence.
