As part of the N.A.C. celebration of the cultural life of Saskatchewan and Manitoba - "Prairie Scene" we are proud to host the show "Playing with Dimensions".
We are lucky to have these artists fly in for the opening:

Michael Hosaluk
Arthur Perlett
and the amazing guitar player, Jack Semple.
There will be a few, short V.I.P. remarks at 5.30pm; to kick things off and make it all official! Then a catered party, wonderful works of creativity and the sensitive, six string stylings of Jack Semple.
Michael Hosaluk, Saskatoon "Changes" 2008 |
Arthur Perlett, Asquith. "We Need to Tock", 2009 |
Paula Cooley, Saskatoon. "Pleien" 2009 |
"Pleien reflects an archaic definition of play; 'to act or move energetically...to strut, to dance.' My sculpture reflects my interest in capturing movement and animation. I find moving bodies, whether plant, animal or human to be fascinating. I find it challenging to take an inert material and transform it, to suggest dynamic movement. Pleien was hand built, then altered to suggest undulating forms such as hips, tentacles or branches. This ambiguity is somewhat unsettling and evocative yet I trust, still sensual, dynamic and playful."
Barbara Goretzky, Lumsden. "Winter Goes to Bed" 2008 |
