About
This exhibition highlights an impressive collection of art work acquired by Dr. Zenon Trylowsky over the past 25 years mainly through acts of exchange with artists for dental services at his Vancouver clinic. The exhibition also foregrounds his support of the independent curatorial platform Trapp Projects who for more than a decade used Trylowsky’s dental office as an alternative curatorial space. The exhibition title refers to a fake cheque made and signed by the French artist Marcel Duchamp in lieu of payment owed to his American dentist Dr. Tzank in 1919.

Organizer
Griffin Art Projects
Established in 2015, Griffin Art Projects is a non-profit art residency and gallery located in North Vancouver. With its combination of public outreach, support for artists in the production of new work through residencies and studio spaces, and the featuring of work from private, public, and corporate collections and collectors, there is no other organization like it in Canada. Griffin is a non-collecting institution that considers the methodologies, thematics, and narratives that shape and direct visual culture, creative work, and collecting practices. Griffin’s exhibitions and events are always free.
