Carl Beam
  • April 7 - May 29, 2011 (The Audain Gallery)
  • Carl Beam (1943-2005) was born in M’Chigeeng (West Bay) on Manitoulin Island. Of Ojibway heritage, the artist has exerted a strong influence on a whole generation of Aboriginal artists and has been instrumental in the development of the art of Canada’s First Nations. He is renowned for his powerful combinations of highly charged images from his personal Anishinaabe aesthetic, which is more akin to the expressive layering of Rauschenberg than the traditional forms of Anishinabek “Woodland School” painters. The exhibition, curated by Greg Hill, and organized by the National Gallery of Canada, features a selection of 50 of Beam’s most remarkable works spanning his 30-year career, from his monumental-scale paintings and constructions, to his ceramics and video.

Forest One

Use for: Forest One by annie ross, annie ross: Forest One

  • March 20 - May 27, 2012 (The Great Hall)
  • The Great Hall: gallery, performance space, parking lot. Yes, parking lot! For about two months this spring, annie ross’ amazing Forest One – a full-size, 1956 Nash Metropolitan automobile that the artist has wrapped, twined, and plaited with cedar-bark and other reclaimed materials –will be displayed here, in all its woven glory. Using bark salvaged from clear-cut urban forests, Ross, a weaver and Assistant Professor in First Nations Studies at Simon Fraser University, completely transformed the car inside and out. Forest One speaks of colonization, urban sprawl, trash, and remediating the urban landscape through acts of salvage.
