Event Description:

The High Performance Rodeo presents:

THE PUPPET COLLECTIVE II: CLASS OF 2009
Graeme Patterson

On a recent cross-Canada tour, Graeme Patterson honed his penchant for people-watching into an art form. Observing people in galleries, airports, restaurants and hotel lobbies, he created fifty-two puppets of the characters that stuck in his head.

Last January, these three-dimensional portraits (pictured above) were sold at the TrépanierBaer Gallery, but with a catch: the collectors had to agree to let Patterson take their photo and make puppets of them. A year later, those collectors face the choice of buying their own puppet or, by allowing someone else to buy it, starting the cycle of interactive puppetry anew.

Opening reception: January 8, 6:00pm.

This event is part of the 24th annual High Performance Rodeo, Calgary’s International Festival of the Arts. For more information, visit www.hprodeo.ca.
