“Viruses don’t kill art. But even successful artists will be pushed to the limits, let alone the 99% of artists who always live close to the edge.” A reality we do not forget @CanadaCouncil https://t.co/K7dOnHoFJZ
#throwbackthursday to the 2011 exhibition Hovercraft at @aceartinc. curated by Jenny Western and Kerri-Lynn Reeves, focused on artists that hover above the boundaries of craft and art.
Pictured work: Jeanette Johns, plans for walls and floors, Marbled Paper, Screen-Print, 2010.
"I'm an artist who chose to move to Winnipeg because it was a great place to make art & to experience art. Cuts to WAC will mean that other artists—younger artists, artists of diverse backgrounds—won’t have the same benefits that allowed me to flourish...
To aid in “flattening the curve” of the current pandemic, ace will be temporarily closed. We are monitoring and adapting as things change & the situation evolves.
Stay home (& make art) if you can, stay safe, & be good to yourselves and others.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
Our gallery takes seriously the recommendations on public safety during this moment. If you are at risk or feeling unwell, please consider refraining from entering public spheres like ace’s, if possible.
Stay safe and be good to one another.
aceartinc. will remain open during gallery hours for the moment.
However, we will not be hosting a public artist talk for Kae Sasaki’s I hear it well but scarcely grasp it, which was scheduled for March 20.
