SUMMARY:Heavy silence by the Suzanne FerlandL
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Lourd silence by artist Suzanne Ferland will be on display at Espace Pierre-Debain from January 29 to March 30\, 2025. \nLourd silence brings together a variety of installations that blend sculpture\, printmaking\, drawing\, sewing\, and collage with the more ethereal element of a floor projection. The materials—bronze\, paper\, and wax—interact in a quiet\, contemplative atmosphere\, reflecting the stillness that can mask deeper\, hidden violence. The exhibition addresses the issue of violence endured by women in silence\, from childhood onwards\, often occurring behind closed doors. \nWe warmly invite you to join us for the opening reception on Wednesday\, January 29\, 2025\, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Espace Pierre-Debain\, located at the Centre culturel du Vieux-Aylmer\, 120 Rue Principale\, Gatineau. We look forward to seeing you there.

SUMMARY:Solitude
DESCRIPTION:Presented at the Foyer Gallery\, the “Solitude” exhibition showcases gallery artists’ work in a diverse range of mediums\, each piece offering a personal interpretation of solitude. From quiet landscapes to intimate figures\, the artists capture moments of stillness\, vulnerability\, and the profound beauty found in moments of solitude. Whether evoking a sense of peace or tension\,  “Solitude” prompts reflection on the ways we relate to ourselves and the world around us in the quiet spaces we inhabit.

SUMMARY:Unprecedented Moments by Nancy Brandsma
DESCRIPTION:“My work is a careful study of bodily movement and human thought. Every day\, countless beautiful thoughts and ideas pass through our consciousness without ever being captured or recorded. The same can be said for every little movement of our bodies. We often judge ourselves for the things we say and do in front of others\, but we fail to pay attention to the myriad of tiny\, yet remarkable\, moments we experience in private every day. \nMy work is the result of pure and instinctive authenticity\, it is never determined in advance and is always completed in a single session. Each mark I carve on my canvas is a living testimony of the precise moment etched in the paint. The works are mostly monochrome\, in an attempt to conceal the myriad thoughts that control my mind and soul at any given moment. Having struggled with attention deficit disorder for most of my life\, I have come to realize that it is fantastic to be different and that our essence should be captured as a sublime landscape. \nThe proposed exhibition project brings together the works that have captured my daily authenticity throughout these last years. The viewer will have the opportunity to reflect and question his or her own experience by creating points of convergence with the works.” – Nancy Brandsma

SUMMARY:Retold Prototypes Without a Story by Adrian For
DESCRIPTION:The Ottawa School of Art ByWard Market Campus is proud to present ‘Retold Prototypes Without a Story’ an exhibition of works by Adrian Gor. This exhibition is on display from Monday January 6 to Sunday February 2\, 2025\, in the J.W. Stellick Gallery located on the main floor of the Downtown Campus at 35 George St.\, in the ByWard Market. \n“Retold Prototypes Without a Story” examines masculine identity through drawings and prints\, reimagining both historical and contemporary figures. Adrian Gor challenges traditional masculinity by blending classical anatomy\, medieval symbolism\, and modern elements like shopping carts and drones. \nAn Ottawa-based artist\, Gor is known for his figurative pastel drawings on paper and linen\, as well as relief prints and etchings. His work delves into the psychological and cultural aspects of masculinity\, questioning values such as strength\, rationality\, and virility. He reinterprets traditional and symbolic representations of the human figure\, drawing from classical\, medieval\, and postmodern critiques of technology and capitalism\, alongside personal experiences. \nGor holds an MFA from the University of Windsor and a PhD in Art History and Philosophy from Concordia University. He teaches Art History and Foundation Drawing at the Ottawa School of Art\, where he also serves as Diploma Coordinator. His research explores connections between contemporary art\, modern art\, and medieval theology\, with publications in SAGE Journals\, Journal of Religion and Culture\, and the New Europe College Ştefan Odobleja Program Yearbook (2017). Notable past exhibitions include the Tonitza Gallery in Romania (2023)\, OSA Gallery at Shenkman Arts Centre (2022)\, and ARTSPLACE Gallery in Nova Scotia (2021).

SUMMARY:Woven Histories: Textiles and Modern Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:In the 20th century\, textiles were often regarded as secondary—viewed as applied art\, women’s work\, or domestic craft. Woven Histories challenges these hierarchies by highlighting the vital role textiles have played in shaping fine art\, particularly in the realm of abstraction. The exhibition brings together over 130 works by more than 45 artists from diverse backgrounds and generations\, offering a rich exploration of weaving and related techniques within modernism\, one of the 20th century’s defining art movements. \nVisitors will encounter a range of textile techniques\, including weaving\, knitting\, netting\, knotting\, and felting\, while learning about the diverse motivations that have driven artists from Anni Albers to Rosemarie Trockel and Jeffrey Gibson (Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians/Cherokee Nation). Some artists use textiles to promote social change; others address pressing political issues. For many\, textiles serve as both subject and material to critique or reinvigorate abstraction’s formal language\, challenging its patriarchal history and gendered identity. \nWoven Histories traces the often-overlooked thread of art history\, uncovering the work of creators who have been marginalized due to their gender\, race\, or class. \nThe exhibition is organized by the National Gallery of Art\, Washington\, in collaboration with the National Gallery of Canada\, Ottawa\, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, and The Museum of Modern Art\, New York.

SUMMARY:Stories My Father Couldn’t Tell Me: Jeff Thomas Origin
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition delves into the critical and creative practices of Jeff Thomas\, an Urban-Iroquois photographer\, curator\, activist\, and cultural theorist. Through his work\, we explore how Thomas’ artistic process—highlighted by artist proofs\, archival materials\, and a new series titled Dream Panels—reflects his authorship of his lived experience on this land. His work resists government designations and engages in activism and reflection\, asserting Indigenous presence and sovereignty. \nSince 1980\, Thomas has challenged the exclusion of Indigenous histories\, experiences\, and sovereignties in urban environments\, particularly in his hometown of Buffalo\, NY. His early works\, including street photography and portraits of his son\, Bear\, marked the beginning of his efforts to map the erasures and continuities of Indigenous knowledge. By recontextualizing archival images by colonial photographers like Edward S. Curtis and William James Topley\, Thomas crafted complex narratives that countered historical misrepresentations. \nThe breadth of Thomas’ oeuvre reflects his expansive curiosity and the deep connections he sees between place and time. In Dream Panels\, he revisits four decades of art-making\, focusing on themes that have remained central to his practice: Indigenous masculinity\, disability\, fatherhood\, and the intricate relationships between land\, ancestors\, and family. These panels underscore how these concerns have shaped his ongoing\, rigorous exploration of identity and community. \nThis exhibition is part of a unique partnership between the National Gallery of Canada (NGC) and the Ottawa Art Gallery (OAG)\, committed to supporting the agency\, self-determination\, and cultural sovereignty of Indigenous artists\, cultural producers\, and communities.
