Empower
January 10, 7:00 pm
The Purple Room at Frame Arts Warehouse in the Exchange, 318 Ross Ave.

We are donating 50% of the sale of any work to Because I Am A Girl.  What makes this initiative so special is that not only do they work to empower girls and women internationally, but they match your donation four times to the dollar.

The hope is that we generate a relationship with ourselves as artists and our community but more globally, the focus is the empowerment of girls and women to strengthen and enable their surrounding communities, and ultimately the end of gender inequality.

With an assortment of figurative, landscape, and abstract works, Random 18 x 18 is a mix of different styles of expression, whether abstract painting full of shape, colour, and design, visual experimentation, or the literal capture of natural scenes and objects. From the ordinary to the abstract, from the representational to the non-representational, this exhibition is a Random compilation of Randomness.

Present At Hand - an exhibition by Matthieu Sabourin
Ace Art, 2-290 McDermot Avenue  (204-944-9763)
January 10 to February 14
Launch – January 10, 7 pm

Sabourin focuses on small objects found in everyday life, especially those which hold a strong relationship to the hand. He tests the limits of such objects both through swift interventions and long-winded enterprises. His pieces play with ideas of self-containment. Present At Hand consists of these many sculptures, modest in size, which exist in a flexible dialogical relationship with each other. Together, they elicit and conflate humor and material discovery.
