Eintritt: Agathe de Bailliencourt’s first solo exhibition in Canada
April 20 – May 18, 2013
General Hardware Contemporary
1520 Queen Street West
De Bailliencourt’s Eintritt series transgresses the limits of both abstraction and figuration with a profoundly personal dimension, somewhere beyond categories of “inside” and “outside”, a radical quest for emotional transparency and sincerity in the way of Sophie Calle. http://generalhardware.ca/artists/agathe-de-bailliencourt/
Iris Häussler, Also Known As…
April 3 – May 11, 2013
Daniel Faria Gallery
188 St Helens Avenue
Also Known As… continues Häussler’s examination of the themes of authorship and hidden identity, a core characteristic of her practice, in the form of sculptures, objects, drawings and concepts. http://www.danielfariagallery.com
14 FORGERIES – OCADU Print Making Thesis Exhibition
April 17 – 25, 2013
Gallery 1313 Main and Process Gallery
1313 Queen Street West
The exhibition has a mix of media and certainly if you were just looking for traditional prints on the wall you might be a little disappointed. Most viewers seem pleasantly surprised at how creative the students have been in putting together clever and challenging works. http://g1313.org/
The Keepers
April 5 – May 4, 2013
O’Born Contemporary
131 Ossington Avenue
The Keepers at once presents the misconduct we overlook as we forge ahead with technological progress while poetically lamenting the dearth we leave in our wake. This exhibition aims to mend the binding tie between life forces before it inevitably snaps. In doing so, Nerbonne guides us through the process and potential result of a journey through human behaviour. http://www.oborncontemporary.com
Condo Living by Jordan MacLachlan
April 11 – May 11, 2013
ArtBarrage
80 Spadina Ave. Suite 208
In Condo Living, the clay figurative sculptures are comfortably housed on a condo floor plan, yet possess a barbarism that one would not expect to find beyond the walls of our neighbours. There is an undeniable fine line between the homeless and the housed, and questions are raised about who or what we really are. http://www.artbarrage.com
