Event Description:

Fernando Botero's artistic style is instantly recognizable and his imagery memorable. This internationally acclaimed Colombian artist depicts the comedy of human life — moving or wry, sometimes with deep emotion or with acerbic wit. Working in a broad range of media, Botero has created a world of his own, at once accessible and enigmatic, with a particular blend of violence, humour and beauty.

The Baroque World of Fernando Botero is the first retrospective exhibition of Botero's work since 1974 and is Calgary's first-ever exhibition of this celebrated artist's work. The exhibition has toured across the United States; in Canada, only three institutions are presenting this magnificent exhibition and Glenbow is the only Western Canadian venue. The Baroque World of Fernando Botero consists of eighty-seven paintings, drawings and watercolours, ten small sculptures and three monumental sculptures.

Event Description:

TRUCK Contemporary Art presents:

Battleship Down

SHOWCASING WORK BY

Randy Niessen (Calgary, AB)

Randy Niessen’s site specific installations are formal explorations created through a hybrid of painting, print media, and sculpture. These installations play with the tension between art and environment, materials and space, as well as reality and illusion. In the abstract of a sinking ship, Battleship Down is an explosive scene of geometric shapes and colour. Fire, water, and light are represented by paint and string erupting around an abstract dreadnought engulfed in its own environment.

Closing Reception: Thursday, September 16, 2010 @ 7:00 PM at the Window Space

The closing reception for Battleship will run from 7 to 8 PM at the window space.

Event Description:

heterophobia, a dark comedy, is a tall glass of gay with a twist of straight. In the world of heterophobia, social norms are flipped on their ears, and extreme role reversal ensues. Being gay is the norm, and being straight is the ‘deviance’.

Our leading lady, Grant, comes home for a visit after a tough break-up, with a secret that gets heavier by the second. As she struggles to hold on to her hidden cravings, her Moms try to woo her with waffles, clean underwear, and the prospect of settling down and being artificially inseminated. Meanwhile, her best friend Peter bursts onto the scene with erotic thoughts about Nathan Lane and a determination to cheer Grant up. But as Grant’s secret becomes too big to hold onto, she is forced to make a choice about revealing who she really is.

heterophobia first premiered at the 2009 IGNITE! Festival with Sage Theatre, to record-breaking audiences and rave reviews, making it the most successful show to ever hit the IGNITE! stage. After subsequent staged readings for diverse audiences, heterophobia has been expanded into a full-length show and the new version will premiere for 13 performances during Calgary's Pride Week!

Talkbacks every Friday, open forums after Saturday matinees.

Event Description:

EPCOR CENTRE for the Performing Arts is proud to present Wildurban: A Multichannel Soundscape created by locally and internationally recognized sound artist Charles Fox.

The soundscape for Wildurban was composed from multichannel surround sound recordings made in wilderness locations in various parts of Saskatchewan. The recording locations reflect a diversity of ecological communities that include waterfowl, songbirds, insects and mammals, communities which are fast disappearing from the Canadian Prairies and Boreal forests.

Through this arrangement, Wildurban invites those who encounter the resulting soundscape to listen in on the wild world, to consider both the origins and potential of human interaction when exploring these natural forms of relationships and communication found in the wild urban soundscape.

Join us in supporting media arts in the Prairies.

Event Description:

During her CAMPER residency, Cécile Belmont will conduct Letter Performance. A group of local residents, each wearing a single letter affixed to their shirt, will come together to build a sentence, addressing Calgary's multifaceted relationship with the Bow River. This work seeks to draw a portrait of the Bow River area through its users, exposing the specificities, memory, and the relationship of the inhabitants with their river.

Cécile Belmont is a French visual artist based in Berlin. She studied textile design in Paris, France and painting in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Reception: TBA

Where: CAMPER is also known as TRUCK’s "Contemporary Art Public Exhibition Rig." Due to the nature of CAMPER as an off-site presentation space, dates and locations of activities are subject to change.
