Rare Spirits
Jerry Grey's Rare Spirits celebrates the resilience, determination, and spirit that characterize the fifteen accomplished Canadians listed at left, affirming the value, not merely of their public achievements, but of what they teach us about growing old. Their lives have spanned most of the twentieth century, a period shaped by remarkable social and technological change. They serve as touchstones for those of us looking forward, with trepidation, to living our own twilight years in this new century. "The compelling impact of their gazes seems to stand for the impact of their lives on the world, and gives the intense sensation of fathoming unmediated character." - Lilly Koltun, Public Archives of Canada "Grey uses her sitters' age and venerable status to splash cold water into the face of our youth-obsessed, goal-driven culture, underscoring the value of a life well-lived & well experienced." - Molly Amoli K. Shinhat, X-Press arts-ottawa.on.ca/portfolio/rarespirits
July 8 - 29 July

El Poder de Humanidad: Contemporary Visual Art of Mexico
A survey of contemporary Mexican artists with established and emerging
careers are included from different styles, experience, opposing esthetic
points of view, and divergent degrees of influence from Europe or North
America. This exhibition is a beginning of what is hoped to be a long
association with contemporary artists and artisans from the riches of
Mexican creativity.
--- Tom Graff, curator
Más allá de las preferencias que podamos tener por un artista, una corriente
expresiva o un acervo iconográfico, la inclusión de artistas que provienen y
marcan gustos disˆ‚miles y avales a veces contradictorios, no hace más que
confirmar la vitalidad de un medio cultural donde la moda y la consagración
histórica no logran derrotarse una a la otra del todo. Tal espíritu
ecuménico seguramente sirvió para modelar la virtud más explícita de todo el
conjunto: su visión panorámica, y sin embargo felizmente arbitraria, sobra
la creación plástica en México en los últimos cuarenta anos.
--- Osvaldo Sánchez, Director General, Museo Carrillo Gil
