SUMMARY:Elspeth Pratt: Hang-ups
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]In Vancouver\, where she has lived for more than twenty years\, Elspeth Pratt is known for her inventive use of building supplies and her interest in leisure as it correlates with the built environment. Her works borrow from the 20th century formal vocabularies associated with constructivist and post-minimalist sculpture. \nThe three wall-mounted sculptures exhibited at MSVU Art Gallery come from the collection of the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. Scar 1995\, Lucky Me 1992 and Arsenic and Lace 1997 hang in a mezzanine that overlooks a major wall-painting installation by Denyse Thomasos\, entitled Tracking: Bombings\, Wars & Genocide\, a Six Months Journey from New York to China\, Vietnam\, Cambodia & Indonesia. \nThe carceral grids and optical dynamism of Tracking offer an eye-popping counterpoint to the quasipictorial\, semi-architectural posturing of Pratt’s sculptures. One writer has described their effect as evoking a “hesitant response to her contingent and ephemeral negotiation of gravity.”[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16900\,16901″ 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:Work Work Work

Plywood\, acoustic tile\, a tea towel and pantry equipment are some of the materials used. Artists represented include Gerald Ferguson\, Kelly Mark\, Elspeth Pratt\, and Leslie Sampson. With the exception of a plywood sculpture by Pratt\, all of the works were made in Nova Scotia in the last 15 years. A highlight of the exhibition is Kelly Mark’s 144 White Jars\, a group of Mason jars containing white materials purchased at the dollar store.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Contingent
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]Roughly a generation separates Hesse’s later work from the production of Pratt and Townsend. The latter suggests that artists continue to rethink and re-use post minimal idioms via subsequent developments in feminist critical theory and art practice. Contingent placed the work of two contemporary Canadian women in the context of American postminimal art making of the 1960s and 70s. The Gallery was honoured to be able to present several small sculptures by Eva Hesse\, which are ordinarily very difficult to borrow. \nA public panel discussion including curator Ingrid Jenkner\, the artists and a representative of the Eva Hesse Estate\, New York\, introduced the unexpectedly contested issue of feminism in abstract art practice.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16453\,16452″ 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]
