Barbara Caruso: The Alphabet Project: Part 1
October 3 - November 3, 2002
This is a new open-ended series of drawings based on Van Doesburg's alphabet. Caruso writes: "In 1981, I made Van Doesburg's Alphabet, a series of 26 drawings. Each drawing is a letter of the alphabet integrated with the square shape and the square page. In 2000, I turned again to this orthogonal alphabet and began a new open-ended series of drawings to explore and exhaust the potential I see in its square shapes and the rigour of its relationships."
Opening Reception: Tuesday, October 8, 4-7 pm
Tim Noonan: The Red Tree Series
November 6 to December 8, 2002
New acrylic paintings and watercolours, inspired by camping and sketching trips around Georgian Bay and the Niagara Escarpment. The work grew out of sketches made on location and computer enhancements of the sketches. "I let the act of painting take me into an expressionistic process where the surfaces become textured and scored, and the colours become intense. My favourite colour tends to be red. I find brown and grey boring. The forest is rhythmical and alive with energy hidden and unseen"
