Just being in a large venue with hundreds of expressive artists and many colourful works plus thousands of art-deprived individuals, one cannot help but feel uplifted and almost overwhelmed. It feels good.
Now with the second TBA it looks like the bi-annual event will become something to look forward to and another good reason for us to celebrate the arts in Toronto.
Artists for the most part seem to have been busy creating new works for us to enjoy and the fair is the perfect venue to take it all in. It may be smaller but it works just fine.
In terms of the artists and art works, the exhibition expresses, or gives a sense, of the urgencies and contemporary condition of a specific moment in time in relation to a specific place.
The entire exhibition is thoughtful, compelling and attractive in its presentation. A great recognition of Toronto’s artists and an exhibition worth visiting more than once to delve into its many parts.
The Sex Show delivers an exhibit that leaves one feeling amused along with the sense of a higher awareness of what sex and sexuality means in the 21st century.
