Greetings Vancouver is Awesome readers! We here at Artsy-Dartsy are proud to be new contributors to VIA.A brief background on us: We are Linus and Denise. So pleased to meet you! We love art and design, hence we started a website called Artsy-Dartsy.com to help people like us find out about art and design events in our awesome city of Vancouver!This week there are tons of great events happening. For the full listing please head to Artsy-Dartsy.com. |
This weeks feature is a bit further from the home front but will be well worth the trip considering the shows pool of talent. SFU presents The Things We Do featuring Helen Eady, Marcia Pitch, Elizabeth Zvonar, Dingy Loehr, and Karen Ostrom.
Opening reception is Saturday, May 15, 3-5pm
In an age rife with metaphysical confusion The Things We Do is a five-person show that settles most of the major questions that have been plaguing humanity lately. Talking and gesturing hands, erotic arms, mongrel figures and arguing animals are all on view in an effort to guide us through the errors of our collective ways. Learning from limbs and animals is not just an alternative communication reality weaving its way through these works, it’s what it’s all about. In Vancouver’s post-Olympic, triumphal moment, this exhibition is a modest, understated guide to the future evolutionary arc of the species.
Other notables: If you love shoes this is the show to go to!!! The Museum of Vancouver presents Fox, Fluevog & Friends, Gallery Atsui presents Funny Business, & Access Gallery presents Motto Storefront - an interesting show on contemporary art publishing. See Artsy for details.
