I attended the opening of Tradition in Transition on Sunday and am very proud to be included in this prestigious exhibition.
Curator Sandra Reford spoke briefly about how the work in the exhibition (that first showed in Alsace France at the 18th Carrefour last September) highlights the sheer expanse of the country that is Canada and the many different points of view that those of us who live here bring to our work, whether heritage, society, or place. Pictured here are only half of what is on display at the
Joshua Creek Heritage Centre until January 6, 2013. Try to see it if you are in the Toronto or Oakville area during the next six weeks.
It looks like a very exciting show. Thanks for sharing the photos.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. Thank you for sharing these images. They made my heart sing on this dreary morning.

ReplyDeleteWish I could go back for this exhibit! Was just there for WOT. Thanks for the excellent photos.
ReplyDeleteSuch inspiring, captivating works of art - wish there were such exhibits around me, but since they're not (at least I haven't found any yet), thank you for taking me along. Feel like I ought to offer you gas money.
ReplyDeleteI was there and it was stunning! Unfortunately, I thought the opening reception was on Saturday, so I was there, with a friend, one day early. The place was empty, so we had a good look.
ReplyDeletelooks like it was a fine, strong show.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to find the time to see the show. Thanks for the photos.
ReplyDeleteWhat an exciting show! Thank you for sharing your images. You've got me trying to figure out how to swing a trip to see the exhibit before it ends. Well...dreaming really. Too close to Christmas and all that.
ReplyDeleteIs this part of World of Threads? Just wondering...and planning...
Thanks for posting these pictures Judy. It's a great show. Your blog will now provide an ongoing record of this wonderful work once the how comes down in Jan.
