Main gallery: Abstract Realities, A Sculpture Exhibition provides some respite in these challenging times. A sense of abstract reality is a tool that enables us to make sense between truth and untruth, fantasy and reality. Currently, the society we know is fractured and disconnected; we find ourselves in limbo. The arts help us cope; sharing the creativity and vision of these artists provides a much-needed grounding in these uncertain times. Participating Artists:
Patti Agapi, Amy Bagshaw, Nathalie Bertin, Carey Cruise, Luci Dilkus, Gail Esau, Midori Fullerton, Ted Fullerton, Marlene Hilton-Moore, Tim Laurin, Christina Luck, Chum McLeod, Jill Price, Amy Switzer, Bernice Vasey Curated by Jeanette Luchese,
The BHCV Gallery: A Drive in Three Dimensions An Installation by William Blakey
They go by as I drive; the rooftops and dormers, the diagonals and triangles, these familiar shapes and patterns that make up a personal landscape. My peripheral catches the repeated angles and random arrangements of man-made form as I travel; a subconscious spatial navigation, a built-in recognition of landmark patterns. The time of day, the intensity and type of light and weather - all affect the colours, contrasts and textures of these layered planes, allowing them to shift and jump in and out of sight. A Drive in Three Dimensions captures, among other things, the fleeting glimpses of my daily commute.
Visits must be booked: [email protected] or call Tel.: 705 431-4044

Organizer
be contemporary gallery organized by artist/director, Jeanette Luchese
I am a visual artist that took a leap of faith and opened an art gallery on March 1st and unfortunately closed 14 days later due to a pandemic. Now reopened to create opportunities to engage the public and support regional artists. A commercial art gallery in Innisfil, Ontario. A small space, in a beautiful old victorian in the Town of Innisfil (Stroud). Supporting Canadian made, I program visual arts exhibitions that engage and stimulate awareness of diversity in the arts to benefit local and regional artists, engaging the community, bringing experiences and understanding towards an inclusive arts culture community.
