This exhibition traces the evolution of her unique practice through a selection of key sculptural works centering the human condition. Spanning four decades\, the exhibition moves from delicate miniatures crafted in silver and copper wire to monumental bronze sculptures cast from woven\, local willow branches. Together\, these works link traditional craft practices to modern and conceptual sculpture and enrich contemporary perspectives on care and the handmade. \nMelanie Colosimo & Emily Falvey\, curators \nWe gratefully acknowledge the support of the Honourable Margaret Norrie McCain\, CC\, ONB\, in realizing this exhibition and publication. \n[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\nAudio Companion\n[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”]\n    \n            \n                  \n			Introduction\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/1.-Introduction.mp3\n			\n		\n			Exhibition Information\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timesless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/2.-Exhibition-Information.mp3\n			\n		\n			From the Land\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/3.-From-the-Land.mp3\n			\n		\n			Once Upon a Time\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/4.-Once-Upon-a-Time.mp3\n			\n		\n			Silver Wire\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/5.-Silver-wire.mp3\n			\n		\n			Vigil\, Bronze Head\, Courage\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/6.-Vigil-Bronze-Head-Courage.mp3\n			\n		\n			Man in Black Coat\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/7.-Man-in-Black-Coat.mp3\n			\n		\n			Sketches for Muse\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/8.-Sketches-for-Muse.mp3\n			\n		\n			Man in a Kimono & Kindred Spirits\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/9.-Man-in-A-Kimono-Kindred-Spirits.mp3\n			\n		\n			Anguish\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/10.-Anguish.mp3\n			\n		\n			Anna Reid and Hidden Memories\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/11.-Anna-Reid-and-Hidden-Memories.mp3\n			\n		\n			Bowl\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/12.-Bowl.mp3\n			\n		\n			Mother and Child\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13.-Mother-and-Child.mp3\n			\n		\n			Spirits of Courage\, Love and Joy\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/14.-Spirits-of-Courage-Love-and-Joy.mp3\n			\n		\n			Artist Statement\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/15.-Artist-Statement.mp3\n			\n		\n			Curator Bios\n			Dawn MacNutt: Timeless Forms\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1984-Kindred-Spirits-1-1024x1010.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/16.-Curator-Bios.mp3\n			\n		\n              No HTML5 audio playback capabilities for this browser.

Campbell\, Still Tho is an ode to the visual artists in Canada who shaped hip hop culture and its visual aesthetics. In this group exhibition featuring artists from across Canada\, an array of mix-media works explores the growth\, influence and importance of graffiti art and its aesthetic legacies. \nThe phrase “Still Tho” in the exhibition’s title refers to a common expression in hip-hop culture that speaks to these artists’ perseverance\, their overcoming numerous barriers to make art and build community. Moreover\, the exhibition highlights the lasting impact of hip hop’s visual art on both Canadian culture and visual aesthetics in our digital age. \nFeature image: Still from “Moments of Movement\, Freestyle Dance Video Series #104 – Tafiya”\, Mark Valino\, 2022.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\nOpening Reception\nAll are welcome to a celebratory reception for MSVU Art Gallery’s Fall exhibitions\, ‘Still Tho\,’ curated by Mark V.

Each artist reflected on this expression in their contribution to the design. \nKalkidan Assefa (Dripping Soul) chose to honour the pioneers of East Coast/Atlantic hip hop\, focusing on Black Nova Scotian communities. Areas like Uniacke Square—where some Africville residents were relocated—were among the first in the region to embrace hip hop’s underlying themes of social and economic disenfranchisement. Assefa highlighted the emcee\, one of hip hop’s four elements\, as the voice that connected these communities with others who shared similar experiences. \nMique Michelle pays homage to the women of hip hop who are often overlooked as contributors to the culture\, collaborators\, or solo artists. Too often\, they are seen as “assistants.” Inspired by Atlantic Canada’s heavy-hitting women emcees\, the globally trailblazing women of hip hop\, and their stories\, Mique Michelle created three characters who are a mashup of past\, present\, and future Femme presence. Mique Michelle adds\, “Let’s not forget to write ourselves into the future while respecting those who created the foundation.”  She invites viewers to take a closer at the mural to find a dozen local easter eggs scattered throughout. \nGhettosocks believes that the founders of hip hop (like DJ Kool Herc) intended to bring people together by celebrating life and culture through their music. This essence permeates the wall and will hold it down until the next iteration inevitably seizes its place. \n“Painting this mural with Mique and Kal has been a beautiful experience. Collaboration is one of the many incredible aspects of hip hop\, and I feel privileged to be included amongst such a pair of immense talent.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Throughout her practice\, Maloney looks at Western history and culture through a feminist lens\, and the results are depictions of plants\, bones\, and organs that reference gender\, pleasure\, desire\, and power. Her craft is joyful and beautiful\, while simultaneously interrogating icons of Western colonialism\, such as museum collections\, domestic gardens\, and landscape art.[/vc_column_text][divider

Specimen also remains true to the themes that have grounded her practice for decades: the dynamics of human relationships\, the interwoven experience of the physical and the psychological\, and the simultaneous power and vulnerability of the body. The Specimen works are domestic-size ceramic sculptures that integrate other found and modified elements\, including fabric and wire. The assemblages are rooted in abstraction and embrace absurdity\, resisting any easy or conclusive reading. Elements of the sculptures serve as stand-ins for larger human forms and have a narrative quality. Specimen also offers a look inward\, at the insides\, the viscera of the body. Through her work in general\, and most vividly in this recent Specimen series\, Low-Beer speaks precisely about her own experiences and observations\, while simultaneously giving space for the viewer to be triggered\, engaged and enchanted.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nOpening Reception\nSaturday\, March 9 at 1:00-3:00pm \nAll are invited to a relaxed reception for MSVU Art Gallery’s spring exhibitions\, Susan Low-Beer: Specimen and  Sarah Maloney’s Pleasure Ground: A Feminist Take on the Natural World.

Following their forced exile after the Second Maroon War with the British\, Jamaican Maroons were exiled to Mi’kma’ki and the British colony of Nova Scotia in 1796. Despite sustained resistance and protest\, the majority of Maroons departed Nova Scotia centuries ago\, however\, many Maroon descendants still live in this province where the legacy of Maroon culture endures. In this exhibition\, Tyshan Wright creates a staged Maroon house and settlement that includes expertly handcrafted iterations of the ceremonial and everyday domestic objects that Maroons were forced to leave behind in Jamaica\, as well as those they use today. This staged settlement imagines Jamaican Maroons and Maroon life thriving across time and place. Maroon Town celebrates historic Maroon resilience and present-day acts of sovereignty that build a vibrant and connected tomorrow for Maroon descendants.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nAbout the Curator\nJulie Hollenbach is a queer\, white-settler artist\, curator\, and cultural historian teaching craft histories and material cultures on unceded Mi’kmaq territory at NSCAD University.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nAbout the Artist\nKjipuktuk (Halifax)-based artist Tyshan Wright works at the intersection of contemporary art and traditional Jamaican Maroon culture and craft.

The exhibition features seven Indigenous artists who create work in an Indigenous language from each of the major geographic regions of what is now known as Canada—Anishinaabemowin\, Komqwejwi’kasikl\, nēhiyawēwin\, Nitsiipowahsiin\, Tāłtān\, and Uummarmiutun. Taskoch pipon kona kah nipa muskoseya\, nepin pesim eti pimachihew aims to address and initiate discussion about how Indigenous languages intertwine with Indigenous epistemologies and how the dormancy and extinction of Indigenous languages leads to a hindrance of culture and knowledge. Bringing together emerging and established Indigenous artists\, the exhibition gives space back to those artists whose practices deal with Indigenous languages in each of their visibilities\, vulnerabilities\, and regional voices. \nOrganized and circulated by TRUCK Contemporary Art\, presented at MSVU Art Gallery in partnership with Eyelevel.\nSupport from the Canada Council for the Arts is gratefully acknowledged.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nOpening Reception\nSaturday\, May 28 \nOpening remarks will take place shortly after 1:00pm\, followed by a relaxed reception with refreshments.

With tender attentiveness to the land and its inhabitants\, MacDonald planted these gardens across the land known as Canada from 1995-2003. He also created a series of accompanying video works\, using his documentation of the gardens and their butterflies. One of the first gardens was located on the Mount Saint Vincent University campus as part of the 1997 exhibition Digital Garden. Since 2019\, MSVU Art Gallery has been in conversation with curator Lisa Myers and the Finding Flowers project\, seeking to renew the quiet\, contemplative nature of Mike’s work through revisiting and re-planting his original butterfly garden. Lisa Myers visited MSVU Art Gallery June 27-30 to begin the re-planting of the butterfly garden.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nGarden Location\nThe garden planted in 1997 was located along a section of a retaining wall that borders the parking lot on the north side of Seton Academic Centre.

MSVU Art Gallery is wanting to re-build the garden with the help of others who share those values and a love of plants. If you would like to donate a plant\, in the form of a small transplant from your garden\, germinated seeds\, or other form of plant sharing\, it would be most welcome. Each garden that Mike created was unique and this re-planting will include the same plants as the original. We have already secured donations for a number of plants but are still hoping to find a few more – if you would like to donate a plant from the list below\, please contact claire.dykhuis@msvu.ca (before June 30 if possible) and indicate which plant you would like to offer to the garden. Please visit MSVU Art Gallery’s Instagram account for images of these plants.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default”

His self-taught practice focused on the environment and natural world\, incorporating plants and animals in much of his work. He found inspiration in both his Indigenous ancestry and Western sources\, drawing from science as well as traditional medicine and ethnobotany. His works have been featured in exhibitions across Turtle Island and worldwide. In 1994\, he was awarded the prestigious Jack and Doris Shadbolt Prize from the Vancouver Institute for Visual Arts and in 2000 he received the first Aboriginal Achievement Award for New Media presented at the Toronto imagiNATIVE Festival.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nAbout the Curator\nLisa Myers is an independent curator\, artist and Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Environmental and Urban Change at York University.

The exhibition 50 Bits and Pieces: an MSVU Art Gallery Retrospective marks this semicentennial. With the support of an Arts Nova Scotia Commission Grant\, Lisa Bouraly and David Clark\, two collaborators invested in archives and digitization\, were invited to scour the MSVU Art Gallery archives—media holdings\, exhibition files\, catalogue collections\, collections\, and other historical records—to find out what was reflected about the Gallery’s history. Culled from more than 700 exhibitions\, 1000 workshops\, and 800 objects in the collection\, 50 Bits and Pieces presents 50 unique yet illustrative moments from MSVU Art Gallery’s past. The original exhibition was to open in 2020\, however\, the global COVID-19 pandemic forced a change in plans. The installation was moved to the fall of 2021 and this extended timeline presented an opportunity for new ways to engage with the archival material. The result is an online interface\, created by David\, that offers collages of the “bits and pieces” selected by Lisa from the archive\, including passages and excerpts from documents\, speeches\, research notes\, exhibition installation photographs\, videos\, and media coverage. The exhibition is a culmination of these 50 moments and their corresponding archival material\, adapted into an immersive installation at the Gallery\, commemorating its 50th anniversary.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”]\n    \n            \n                  \n			Exhibition Information\n			50 Bits and Pieces: an MSVU Art Gallery Retrospective\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/1-1-1024x574.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/01-Exhibition-Information-1.wav\n			\n		\n			Curator Statement - Lisa Bouraly\n			50 Bits and Pieces: an MSVU Art Gallery Retrospective\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/1-1-1024x574.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/02-Curator-Statement-Lisa-Bouraly.wav\n			\n		\n			Artist Statement - David Clark\n			50 Bits and Pieces: an MSVU Art Gallery Retrospective\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/1-1-1024x574.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/03-Artist-Statement-David-Clark.mp3\n			\n		\n			About the Curator - Lisa Bouraly\n			50 Bits and Pieces: an MSVU Art Gallery Retrospective\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/1-1-1024x574.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/04-About-the-Curator-Lisa-Bouraly.wav\n			\n		\n			About the Artist - David Clark\n			50 Bits and Pieces: an MSVU Art Gallery Retrospective\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/1-1-1024x574.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/05-About-the-Artist-David-Clark.wav\n			\n		\n              No HTML5 audio playback capabilities for this browser.

The discussion and recording took place online\, via Zoom\, on November 26\, 2021.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” disable_element=”yes” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”19231″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” hover_animation=”zoom” alignment=”center” img_link_target=”_blank” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” img_link=”http://www.50bitsandpieces.net/”][vc_column_text]\n^^ click to visit project interface ^^\n[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nCollaborators’ Statement\n\nTo what extent does an art gallery’s exhibition and collection history live up to its stated objectives of representing and supporting artists\, especially women artists? Celebrating a 50-year history (1971-2021)\, MSVU Art Gallery’s anniversary represents a unique opportunity to attempt to answer this question. During a year-long collaboration\, we worked with visual and textual archives from MSVU Art Gallery to produce an online interface designed to make our findings breathe new life into the Gallery’s history. Drawing from dispersed and fragmented archives\, a selection of 50 representative moments has been curated to encapsulate the Gallery’s 50-year history. This interface is an invitation to explore and revisit an institution which has devoted a significant part of its activities to the representation of women as cultural subjects and producers. The interface itself works as a navigation system and as an artistic and alternative database\, offering a constellation of 50 activities that encompasses the Gallery’s mission\, its work with surrounding communities\, and its support to artists from Atlantic Canada. Navigation of the interface is neither chronological nor thematic: the serendipitous discovery of Bits and Pieces content is punctuated by digital and animated collages that weave and layer sound\, video\, and other multimedia elements. This interactive navigation is meant to enable visitors to create their own connections\, impressions\, and interpretations of the Gallery’s archives. \nThis project would not have been possible without the invaluable support of the Gallery team: David Dahms\, Claire Dykhuis\, Laura Ritchie\, and Traci Steylen. We are also very grateful to Faiza Abdulle\, Adrian Fish\, Susan Gibson Garvey\, Ingrid Jenkner\, Connor Mackinnon\, Lori Mombourquette\, Kaya Panthier\, and Wiebke Schroeder for their contributions to this project. \n– Lisa Bouraly and David Clark \n[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nAbout the Curator\nLisa Bouraly is a researcher in Museum studies and a curator of contemporary art.

The question of home (namely “what and where is home?”) is made no simpler by this fact. Indeed\, this crisis has exacerbated existing inequalities and precarity in housing access. Co-opting the language of public health directives to stay home and shelter in place\, Tactics for Staying Home in Uncertain Times invites viewers to consider the meanings of home through the lens of diaspora. This exhibition asks\, how do we stay home when home is away? How do we make here feel like home? \nTactics brings together five emerging Black\, Indigenous and racialized (BIPOC) artists living across Canada whose works articulate ideas of displacement\, domesticity\, and the limits of belonging. By tracing connections to present and past homes\, the artists render visible everyday gestures that enable feelings of belonging and solidarity across complex and diverse communities. The featured works borrow from the fabric of lived experience: familiar fruit\, objects of utility and comfort\, the light of an electronic screen.

Together\, their works politically and poetically express current Arctic concerns towards land\, language\, sovereignty and resurgence. Artists from throughout the circumpolar north share kinship with each other and their ancestors\, love for their homelands\, and respect for the land and its inhabitants. Yet they also share histories of colonialism and experience its ongoing legacies and are united in their desire to protect northern ecologies\, languages\, peoples and knowledge from the nefarious effects of climate change\, encroaching industry and competition. These resistance efforts do not merely express\, they give shape to a collective ecology of care\, a “decolonial love” (in the words of Leanne Simpson and others) that is both generous and generative. These works invite viewers to contemplate relationships between textual and embodied Indigenous knowledges\, innovation and sustainability\, humour and resilience\, and our collective responsibility to northern life and land. \nOrganized and circulated by the Leonard & Bina Ellen Art Gallery / Concordia University \nThis exhibition was cancelled due to MSVU Art Gallery’s closure in response to

The large-scale charcoal drawings of Lodgepole Pine\, Ponderosa\, and Douglas Fir trees sway slightly in response to air currents in the gallery\, evoking the canopy of these monstrous\, seemingly ageless trees. Notions of human incursions upon nature— hydroelectric lines\, communication towers and the effects of invasive species like the pine beetle—seep into the drawings\, hinting at the fragility of the wilderness. Everett lives and works in Kelowna\, BC. \nThis exhibition was cancelled due to MSVU Art Gallery’s closure in response to COVID-19[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nInterview with Jane Everett\n[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IjLNWG-yWc&feature=emb_logo”][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\nAudio Companion\n[/vc_column_text]\n    \n            \n                  \n			Exhibition Audio Track\n			Jane Everett: Understory\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Understory_3-1024x685.jpg\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Understory-first-5-mins-_01.mp3\n			\n		\n			Artist's Statement\n			Jane Everett: Understory\n			\n			ALL CATEGORIES\n			\n			\n			https://www.msvuart.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Jane-Everett.m4a\n			\n		\n              No HTML5 audio playback capabilities for this browser.

Through her work\, Heather Hart considers Black histories\, access to ownership\, taking up physical space\, and the significance of having a place to call home. Visitors may access both the rooftop and its floor level attic\, while contemplating and enacting upon these vantage points. Northern Oracle provides a performative area: a locale for demonstration of power\, influence\, and for “shouting from the rooftop.” The Oracle is the heart of the work and a shrine where visitors may leave offerings. \nOrganized and circulated by the Doris McCarthy Gallery\nPresented at MSVU Art Gallery in partnership with the Africville Heritage Trust \nThis exhibition ended early due to MSVU Art Gallery’s closure in response to COVID-19\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/391275660″][vc_column_text]\nAccess support provided by\n \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\nOpening Reception\nSaturday\, January 18 at 2:00pm \nPlease join the artist for an informal presentation followed by a relaxed reception.

To celebrate the NSTT 75th Anniversary\, First You Dream developed out of a call for entries to all scholarship recipients\, inviting submissions of recent work. The final exhibition selection resulted in a broad range of media\, including drawing\, ceramics\, fibre\, jewellery\, mixed-media\, painting\, printmaking\, sculpture and video. The generational mix of the artists (indicated by the dates of their Talent Trust scholarships) ranges from 1979 to 2016—a span of 37 years. The exhibition includes work by Jordan Broadworth\, Sandra Brownlee\, Lux Habrich\, Sara Hartland-Rowe\, Dan O’Neill\, Lucy Pullen\, Pamela Ritchie\, Despo Sophocleous\, Emily Vey Duke\, and Charley Young. \nOrganized by MSVU Art Gallery in partnership with Cape Breton University Art Gallery and the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. The Nova Scotia Talent Trust and partner galleries recognize the support of the Province of Nova Scotia through the Department of Communities\, Culture and Heritage.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/338435994″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\nCatalogue\n[/vc_column_text][image_with_animation image_url=”18704″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” img_link_target=”_blank” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” img_link=”/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Catalogue-_correctedfinal-accessible-1.pdf”][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\nMaking and Mentoring\nWednesday\, July 24 at 6:00pm \nIn conjunction with First You Dream: Celebrating 75 Years of the Nova Scotia Talent Trust\, MSVU Art Gallery is hosting a panel discussion on the topic of mentorship with artists Lux Habrich\, Dan O’Neill and Pamela Ritchie.

A dancing figure in the form of a spiraling flurry of silk moves from one panel to another. As the dancer traverses the ring\, it appears that the viewer and the figure share the same physical space. Inspired during a residency in Paris\, Norton looks to 19th century inventor and modern dance pioneer Loïe Fuller’s choreography and costume design as a performative sculptural object. \nOrganized and circulated by The Robert McLaughlin Gallery in collaboration with Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/319906851″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”30″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”30″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”30″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\nCatalogue\n[/vc_column_text][image_with_animation image_url=”15908″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” img_link_target=”_blank” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”75%” max_width_mobile=”default” img_link=”https://issuu.com/thermg/docs/slipstream_online”][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\nOpening Reception\nSaturday\, January 12 at 2:00pm \nPlease join artist Jenn E Norton for a relaxed reception with refreshments.

But living rooms are private spaces packed with emotions and history\, as well as social and political investments. The kind of living room we create can reveal our background\, our values\, our social position\, and our aspirations. Even the privilege of having a living room speaks volumes when so many people live in precarious situations\, are without shelter\, or have been displaced from their homes and traditional lands. \nThis exhibition explores the many dynamics of domestic environments by staging a radically re-imagined living room in the gallery space. Unpacking the Living Room will host thoughtful community discussions about craft and art\, amateurism and professionalism\, leisure and labour\, and the private and the political. Through playful and insightful interventions\, Unpacking the Living Room invites community members to reflect on the histories and ideologies that ground understandings of self\, home\, belonging\, and resilience. \n– Julie Hollenbach\, curator[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default”

The first phase follows a group of friends as they attempt to construct self-portraits. The second phase of the performance sees the friends forgo the arduous task of performing femininity to perfection. Opting instead to glitch\, disembody and otherwise intervene in the prescriptive works of mainstream feminine gurus such as Jane Fonda\, Martha Stewart\, Sheryl Sandberg\, and Iliza Schleslinger. This phase of the performance witnesses the friends’ collective embrace of the queer pleasure of gender failure. Visitors are invited to drop-in or attend the whole performance.

SUMMARY:Maria Hupfield: The One Who Keeps on Giving
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]The exhibition is a production of The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Southern Alberta Art Gallery\, Lethbridge; Galerie de l’UQAM\, Montréal; Mount Saint Vincent University Art Gallery\, Halifax; and Canadian Cultural Centre\, Paris. It was sponsored by TD Bank Group and supported by Julia & Robert Foster. \nObjects contain meanings beyond their materiality\, meanings that we bring to them or receive from them. Objects are the result of an action\, entail a trace of a human gesture and trigger reactions and memories. They have the potential to be read collectively or personally. In her artistic practice\, Hupfield reveals the inter-relational potential triggered by objects between humans or cultural environments. \nHupfield’s new two-channel video installation\, The One Who Keeps On Giving\, gathers around an object: an oil painting of a seascape by the artist’s late mother who painted it as a young woman and signed it as Peggy Miller. It is this personal narrative that informs a performance\, which took place in Parry Sound\, Ontario on Georgian Bay—the setting that is also depicted on the canvas. Hupfield invited her siblings to contribute to this performance\, which surrounds the memory evoked by the painting. To ground the filmed performance and to accompany the painting in the exhibition context\, the contributors re-enacted the performance within the gallery space at The Power Plant\, the setting of the second film. \nAlongside Hupfield’s new commission\, the exhibition features a selection of objects that have been activated regularly in performances over recent years: a canoe\, a snowsuit\, a snowmobile helmet\, mitts and boots\, a cassette recorder with headphones\, a light bulb and seven items solicited from individuals. All of these objects are replicated in felt and displayed alongside a selection of films within an environment of wooden structures. \nIn the film It Is Never Just about Sustenance or Pleasure\, Hupfield is wearing custom-made mitts and boots to cover her extremities while walking through the desert of Santa Fe where there was once a waterway. The forms of the objects – not their material – reference wetlands. The gloves are based on contemporary snowmobiling and traditional moose hide mitts for hunting\, while the boots recall rubber hip-waders worn for river fly fishing. These objects\, which are grounded in regionally specific lifestyles\, appear de-contextualized and serve as tools for acknowledging the desert’s past and the need for adaptability in the face of global climate change. \nIn her performance Contain that Force\, Hupfield activates seven objects that she received from seven artists in a gesture of social exchange. Some of them – the tape\, the photograph and the two texts – are by nature representatives of something that lies outside of their materiality; for example\, the tape captures a sound\, the photograph is an extract of reality and the two texts tell a story. Hupfield uses felt because she considers it to be neutral. The meanings of her objects unfold beyond their material limitations. \nThe title of the exhibition and the new commission is an English translation of Maria Hupfield’s mother’s Anishinaabe name. \nThe exhibition is a production of The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Southern Alberta Art Gallery\, Lethbridge; Galerie de l’UQAM\, Montréal; Mount Saint Vincent University Art Gallery\, Halifax; and Canadian Cultural Centre\, Paris. It was sponsored by TD Bank Group and supported by Julia & Robert Foster. \nMaria Hupfield (born 1975 in Parry Sound\, Georgian Bay\, Ontario) is a member of Wasauksing First Nation\, Ontario\, and is currently based in Brooklyn\, New York. Solo exhibitions include MSVU Gallery\, Halifax (2018); Galerie de l’Uqam (2018); Southern Alberta Art Gallery\, Lethbridge (2017); The Power Plant\, Toronto (2017); MacKenzie Art Gallery\, Regina (2015); Galerie Hugues Charbonneau\, Montréal (2015); and Art Gallery of Southwestern Manitoba\, Brandon (2011). She has participated in group exhibitions and performances at Trestle Projects Brooklyn (2016); SITE Santa Fe Biennial (2016); Winsor Gallery\, Vancouver (2016); A Space Gallery\, Toronto (2015); Campo dei Gesuiti\, Venice (2015); Aboriginal Art Centre\, Ottawa (2015); The Bronx Museum\, New York (2015); Vox Populi\, Philadelphia (2015); Musée d’art contemporain des Laurentides\, Saint Jérôme (2015); North Native Museum (NONAM)\, Zurich (2014); SBC Gallery of Contemporary Art\, Montréal (2013); The Power Plant\, Toronto (2013); and Vancouver Art Gallery (2012).

The artists will activate select work within the exhibition\, The One Who Keeps on Giving. Characteristic of Hupfield’s live interdisciplinary performances\, she aims to craft a visually rich and multi-sensory atmosphere for an active exchange of ideas across cultures\, disciplines\, and borders.

SUMMARY:Tove Storch: Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]Tove Storch’s first solo exhibition in North America follows a three-week production residency in the Art Gallery. The young Danish artist has already exhibited at S.M.A.K.\, Ghent\, Belgium; the Louisiana Museum\, Copenhagen\, Denmark; and various galleries in Brazil. She recently completed a residency at the International Studio and Curatorial Program\, New York. \nStorch’s sculpture emphasizes process\, physicality and the unique properties of materials. These characteristics are reminiscent of minimalist and post-minimalist practices of the 1970s. A Danish critic has identified a range of art-historical allusions in her work: “Donald Judd’s specific objects came to mind\, as did Robert Irwin’s more delicate combinations of material qualities and visual effects\, and the sensual spatial politics of Lygia Clark and Helio Oiticica.” \nThe new work proposed by Storch engages with the gallery’s two-storey architecture\, deploying a forest of narrow metal rods to span the distance between floor and ceiling with an effect similar to that of a drawing. It incorporates the formal paradox typical of Storch’s sculpture\, wherein the physical concreteness of the elements belies the optical variability of their appearance. \nDescription of Untitled 2017\nThe work is composed of 137 quarter-inch\, oxidized cold-rolled steel rods\, pierced at the top and attached with wire to anchors set into the coffered concrete ceiling. The rods are welded once\, each in a different place along its length from the others. In addition\, the rods have been bent by hand\, each in a unique way. \nThe rods vary in length\, however each spans the entire distance between the floor and its attachment point on the ceiling\, either 7.18 metres to the interior of a coffer or 6.57 metres to the lower edge of a coffer. The irregularly shaped array of rods covers a floor area of approximately 18.51 metres by 8.23 metres. \nPanel Discussion\nWednesday\, March 15th at 3:30pm \nArtist Kim Morgan will hold a public conversation with gallery director Ingrid Jenkner concerning Storch’s work. Morgan’s sculpture Range Light\, Borden-Carleton\, PEI (2010) won the Lieutenant Governor of Nova Scotia Masterworks Arts Award in 2012.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”15653\,15654\,15655\,15656″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Moser writes and acts out fragmented texts\, combining language with everyday materials\, which are used as props\, and audio excerpts pulled from popular culture. These incongruous elements destabilize her props’ typical purpose and allow Moser to alternate between states of criticality and humour. There is an inherent struggle in Moser’s work as she attempts to reach an accord between herself and “things\,” whether objects or ideas. The resulting artworks are affective\, entertaining and wildly unpredictable. \nPERFORMANCE & OPENING RECEPTION\nSaturday\, June 6\, 2:00pm. Join us for a performance by Moser at the exhibition’s opening reception. Curator Stefan Hancherow will be present.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”17223\,17224\,17225\,17226″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:An Intimate Distance
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]An Intimate Distance presents three multi-component works: Andrea Ward’s Hairstories\, Glynis Humphrey’s Gorge and Suzanne Swannie’s Considering Two Small Forms\, for Maja and Marta. Apart from illuminating body image issues and other details of women’s lives\, these works hold in common a distinctive “aniconism”— the avoidance of figurative depictions of women’s bodies. They exemplify a critical tendency in Second-Wave feminist art-making\, the commitment to engage with women’s subjectivity while at the same time refusing to depict women’s bodies as objects of “the gaze”. The constraints entailed by this aesthetics of refusal have prompted some of the most compelling and imaginative works of art produced in Nova Scotia in the last thirty years.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”15073\,15072\,15062″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Its two-storey height was designed for the preeminent art of that era; expansive paintings on the scale of American “field” painting\, and sculpture conceived in Minimalist terms as spatial theatre. \nForty-three years later\, Big in Nova Scotia responds to the moment of the Gallery’s beginning with a selection of large works from the MSVU collection. Seven of the nine participating artists received their art educations during the heyday of spatially ambitious artmaking. The works date from 1976 through 2012 and include painting\, sculpture and textile-based art.

Terms of Engagement includes works by three “embedded” artists: Dick Averns (posted to the Middle East\, 2009)\, nichola feldman-kiss (posted to Sudan\, 2011) and Adrian Stimson (posted to Afghanistan\, 2010). All of the artists work in lens-based media (photography and video) and sculpture. Stimson\, a member of the Siksika (Blackfoot) Nation\, incorporates traditional ceremonial materials\, razor wire and painting in his installations. \nThe exhibition takes no singular position on the merits of making war or peace. The art’s ambivalence frames the questions posed by the curator: Is there still a role for Canadian peacekeeping?

SUMMARY:Chromophilia
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]From time to time\, MSVU Art Gallery presents exhibitions of art drawn from the Mount Saint Vincent University Collection. In this grouping of recent acquisitions\, the importance of colour is the quality shared by otherwise disparate works. “Chromophilia” means “love of colour.” \nThe selection of works by Nova Scotian artists and artisans includes encaustic paintings by Peter Dykhuis\, ceramics by Lucky Rabbit Pottery (Debra Kuzyk and Ray Mackie) and textiles by Suzanne Swannie.\nOver the centuries\, including the twentieth\, colour in art has been disparaged as “superficial” or “cosmetic” by certain Western critics and theorists. In his book Chromophobia\, David Batchelor describes the many attempts to purge colour by characterizing it as symptomatic of a corrupting influence—such as the oriental\, the feminine\, the infantile\, the vulgar\, or the pathological. One prominent educator at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design went so far as to advocate black and white as “the look of intelligent art.” \nThe hierarchical thinking that privileges line or design over colour also raises art above craft. However\, the selection of art and craft in Chromophilia dispenses with binary distinctions. It encourages viewers to consider the versatility of colour as a decorative\, structural and expressive element. \nWhen viewed from the side\, the footed bowl thrown by Ray Mackie and decorated by Debra Kuzyk balances a gracefully contoured silhouette against the lively\, graphic surface design on its outer wall. When viewed from above\, the mutually intensifying reds and greens of the bowl’s interior appear independently of the bowl’s silhouette\, giving the vessel a dual personality defined on the one hand by line and on the other by hue. Equally decorative in its effect\, the pooled\, dripped\, greenish-blue glaze on Mackie’s Swimming Rays poetically evokes the ocean. \nSuzanne Swannie’s miniature Zodiac tapestries demonstrate a design principle similar to Deb Kuzyk’s\, in that high chroma hues are never adjacent\, but always separated by a thin black line or by wider bands of black and white. In Swannie’s carpet study Brud\, the adjacent red and orange fields are nearly indistinguishable—but the optical ambivalence of these closely valued colours is offset by the bold tonal contrasts of geometrically defining black and white bands. The combination of analogous colours and contrasting values produces the spatially dynamic effect of planes sliding over and under one another. \nThe resemblance to pixels in the weave pattern of Swannie’s tiny tapestries resonates with the modular composition and broken colour daubs of Peter Dykhuis’ multi-panelled encaustic paintings. Dykhuis’ subject matter and colours are appropriated from the computer screen\, whose luminosity is approximated by the translucency and sheen of pigmented beeswax. Both paintings reproduce satellite weather maps issued in association with Hurricane Juan (2003). Their brilliant hues are offset with zones of white or panels of “pixelated” black striping. These serve to accentuate the graph-like structure of the paintings\, complimenting the “info-graphic” connotations of colours that have been selected for bit size rather than beauty. \nOpening Reception: Join us for the opening reception and meet the artists on Saturday\, March 16 at 3:00pm.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”17307\,17308″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Steve Higgins: Artist in Residence

As though exposing the inner contradictions of a dysfunctional society\, his elaborate drawings include spatially incompatible illusions in compositions that Higgins describes as “corrupted from within.” The production residency at MSVU Art Gallery offers Higgins his first opportunity in 32 years to realize a room-sized\, three-dimensional structure based on his charcoal drawings. \nThe artist was born in Spokane\, Washington\, and taught from 1974 until 2002 at the University of Manitoba School of Art\, Winnipeg. Since moving to Halifax\, he has been teaching at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. An exhibition of his work\, All Things Considered: Thoughts about Cities and History\, War and Peace\, travelled across Canada in 2009-2012. \nThroughout his residency\, Higgins will host open studio days to invite the public into his process. During gallery hours\, visitors to the mezzanine gallery will be able to observe from above his creation of an increasingly impossible architecture. For Higgins\, the “theatre of labour” staged during his residency “is as important for the community to witness as it is for me to make.”[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”17296\,17294\,17304\,17303\,17302\,17297\,17298\,17299\,17300\,17301″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
