Secret Garden
|
Artist: Angelina McCormick
Vernissage: Friday June 18th, 2010, 17:00 - 20:00
On View: June 18th – August 28th, 2010
Mon - Fri 10:00 -18:00, Sat 10:00-15:00
Secret Garden by Angelina McCormick is, on the surface, a collection of flower photographs spanning 5 years of obsessive imaging of dying and artificial flora. Assembled for the first time in the Red Wall Gallery, the resulting array of images is much more than a botanical collection.
This exhibition reveals how McCormick’s practice has evolved over time. The formal elements of her photographs have changed with each collection; passing through several film formats, camera types and production approaches to the most recent iconic 8” X 10” shot, large, clean images.
More significantly, the expressive content of her work has also evolved. Each successive grouping, although always of either real or artificial flora, conveys a different aspect of the artist’s search for self.
Early work tackles aging, sickness and also death as transformation. Images of this ultimate of changes from life to death are made by someone who describes herself as “ruined and living in both worlds”, and pose important questions about our perceptions of both states of being. McCormick’s Holga series is playful and made with deliberate misdirection. These photos of fake flowers cloak gallows humour in a seductive surface of candy colours and soft edges. The most recent works become larger and more iconic. Crisp and bright, they induce awe sometimes at odds with their unpretentious look at human relationships, personalities and archetypes.

The Block by Matthew Higgins, documents in chilling detail, weapons made by the inmates of Kingston Penitentiary.
Born of a fascination with prison life, this scanographic collection takes a look into the darkest corner of life behind bars. Through access to Kingston Pen’s evidence room, Higgins has documented the knives, pipe bombs, zip guns, and shivs made by convicts in all their alarming and fascinating detail. Many of these weapons have remarkable stories and as a group tell a tale of determination, desperation, violence and chilling creativity.

SOLO SERIES 2010

Artist: Magida El-Kassis
Date: March 5th – March 16th, 2010
Vernissage: Friday March 5th, 2010, 17:00 - 20:00
Viewing Hours: Monday-Friday, 11:00-18:00, Saturday, 10:00-15:00, Sundays and late evenings by appointment or by chance.
An exhibition of a photographic typology documenting people of "pure bred" ethnicity in order to preserve the lineage and identity of humankind.
El-Kassis explores a personal perspective into the definition of lineage through these images. She envisions these photographs serving as proof for future generations of the existence of pure indigenous ethnic groups. As populations become more integrated, an aspect of identity becomes unrecognizable, so she has begun this typology in order to help preserve the ancestry and identity of humankind.

SOLO SERIES 2010

Artist: Wesley Kirschner
Vernissage: Friday February 12th, 2009, 18:00 - 21:00
On View: February 12th – February 23rd, 2010
Mon - Fri 10:00 -18:00, Sat 10:00-15:00
The dresses fabricated by Wesley Kirschner are born out of her imagination. She works with glass, newsprint, and piano wire to build an art piece to be photographed. By placing each dress in context, she allows the viewer to momentarily forget about the fashion and creates a setting and image that could be an editorial page in any fashion magazine. It is through this vision and imagination that she creates a visual metaphor for the fashion industry.

Students, instructors and alumni of the SPAO Portfolio Program have submitted their best architectural photographs on the theme “Ottawa, the Urban Fabric” to be juried.

SOLO SERIES 2009

Artist: Sarah Fisher
Date: February 6th to March 2nd
Vernissage: Friday, February 6th 2009, 17:00 - 20:00
A photographic exhibition exploring the obsession involved in collecting similar objects.
Photographer Sarah Fisher gives insight into collecting, through images of many similar objects. Throughout this exhibition the ideas and questions posed are from the artist's self-reflection and questioning of her own deficit throughout the years. These visuals represent a reflection of personal separation from things worth keeping and a curiosity in the people who can't be satisfied with one item, but must have many similar ones. Her interest is not in accumulating physical items but in documenting this need in others.
The Red Wall Gallery is located in SPAO at 168 Dalhousie,

Date: 6 février au 2 mars
Vernissage: Vendredi, 6 février 2009, 17 h 00 à 20 h 00
Une exposition de photographies explorant l'obsession qui alimente la collection d'objets semblables.
La photographe Sarah Fisher lance un regard sur la collection par l'entremise d'images d'objets semblables. À travers cette exposition, elle explore des idées et des questions provenant d'introspections et de questionnements au sujet de son propre deficit au cours des années. Ces images reflètent une séparation personnelle d'objets valant la peine d'être conservés ainsi qu'une curiosité pour les gens qui ne sont satisfaits que lorsqu'ils possèdent plusieurs versions semblables d'un même objet. L'artiste ne manifeste aucun intérêt pour l'accumulation d'objets physiques mais plutôt pour la documentation de ce besoin chez d'autres.

Vernissage: Friday, January 16th 2009, 17:00 - 20:00
A black and white photographic exhibition creating a safe space to visually interact with sex toys.
Rarely seen as something to keep on your mantle, sex toys often live most of their lives in hiding. Trying to change how these objects are portrayed, photographer Sarah Schorlemer takes on the challenge of creating a safe space to visually interact with these toys. In tones of grey the viewer can see these playful aids for the good that they do and not just the dirty little secret to keep from your mother.

Une exposition de photographies en noir et blanc se voulant un lieu sécuritaire permettant l'interaction visuelle avec des accessoires sexuels.
Rarement vus commes des objets à exposer sur votre cheminée, les accessoires sexuels passent la majeure partie de leur vie hors de vue. Intéressée à modifier la façon dont ces objets sont perçus, la photographe Sarah Schorlemer se fixe comme défi de créer un lieu sécuritaire où l'on peut interragir visuellement avec ces objets. En passant par différents tons de gris, le public peut apprécier ces accessoires amusants pour leur bienfaits plutot qu'à titre de petit secret à cacher de votre mère.

An exhibition of works exploring turning points in the artistic practices of twelve photographic artists.
In the context of the photographic medium at its own crossroads, the
theme for Festival X: “The Decisive Moment” is reinterpreted in Watershed through the work of twelve established photographic artists. Contributors
to this eclectic group show have been asked to select a work that they feel was a turning point in their practice, and to select or create a new work that is in dialogue with this decisive career moment. This exhibition, seeking greater understanding of the creative process, looks beyond the capture of the individual image, to examine the artistic watershed.

Moment décisif
19 septembre – 3 novembre
Vernissage : Vendredi, le 19 septembre de 17 h 00 à 21 h 00.
Une exposition d’œuvres explorant les grands tournants des pratiques artistiques de douze artistes photographes.
Attentif au contexte du médium photographique arrivé à un important carrefour, le « moment décisif », thème du Festival X, est réinterprété dans cette exposition par le biais des œuvres de douze artistes photographes établis. Les participants à cette exposition de groupe diversifiée ont dû sélectionner une œuvre représentant selon eux un grand tournant dans leur pratique. On leur a ensuite demandé de choisir ou de produire une seconde œuvre reflétant ce moment critique de leur carrière. S’intéressant à une meilleure compréhension du processus créatif, cette exposition, plutôt que de s’arrêter à la production d’images individuelles, vise l’analyse du moment décisif artistique.

Photographic moments in the life of a city that express humanity
and the fragility of life.
David Barbour was inspired by the work of Henri Cartier-Bresson to be a travel photographer. Barbour has balanced photographic assignments and personal projects, traveling to over 35 countries over the span of his career and to Cuba 13 times.
Havana challenged from the first, Barbour’s abilities as a street photographer, and now the comfort gained from familiarity of place has refined his approach and allowed him to extend his visual style through
the use of a variety of camera formats. Barbour explores this remarkable
city with the attitude that life is interesting and the resulting images
capture moments that mirror the humanity and fragility of life that is Havana.
Exhibiting Artist: David Barbour
Travel to Havana this November with David where he will be leading a week long photo safari.

Interplay |
Vernissage March 7th, 2008, 17:00-20:00
Interplay is a collection of photographic perspectives of facets that
define lives.
Be it the touch of a loved one, the hiss and pop of your favorite record, or the whir of a projector, the strong sentiments that these evoke are the most difficult to describe. These are the bridges between our physical realities and emotional states. We experience our world through the tint of these states; they alter our reactions and realities. They change us, and our direction. These images seek to explore our perspectives on the defining aspects of
our lives.
By the Rinsed in “Acid” collective: Brandon Clarida, Annelise Lallemand and Patrick Turner

Fotografia |
Vernissage: Friday November 30th, 2007, 18:00-21:00
Wojciech K. Jakobiec's monochromatic photographic work comes from a solid European tradition of humanism. He is a traveller that has captured, exhibited and published his work on three continents. Jakobiec has an interest in what humanity is capable of creating rather than what it can destroy, and he synthesizes this diverse subject matter from around the world into his own minimalist and carefully framed aesthetic.

Vernissage Friday, February 23rd. 17:00-20:00
Degenerative disease is all around us. It affects the lives of thousands of people. People who pass us on the street or work at the local market or sit next to us at the theatre. What often sets them apart from those who are afflicted by other diseases is that you can't tell that they are suffering from anything. They appear on the outside to be as healthy as the average individual, when in reality they suffer daily living a life that is slowly changing them against their will.

Environment |
Vernissage Friday, February 9th. 17:00-20:00
ENVIRONMENT - is the space that surrounds us; the objects - living and non-living - that fill that space. All things that we see, touch, and smell are part of our environment. Some of these things we pay more attention to than others, at times becoming obsessed with them. One of my obsessions within my environment is old architecture. Iam fascinated by old wood and stone, by the stories that lie in their history, and by the stories that I create on my own, true or not. I can spend my days staring in awe at the design of a window; the many shades of a brick; the texture of a wooden door. Iam captivated by the stories deterioration tells. This captivation has led me to the photographing of architecture time and again. These ten pieces are some of my recent architectural work. On view from Friday February 9th 2007 to Wednesday February 21st, 2007:
11:00-18:00, Monday-Thursday
11:00-17:00, Friday

Stage Two |
Vernissage Friday, January 26th. 17:00-20:00
As a collection, "Stage two" marks the second phase in portraiture for emerging photographer Annelise Lallemand. This black and white series exposes the inner personalities of the men being photographed while the photographer herself explores the fact that she is attracted to each of her subjects on a certain level. Whether or not the subject is looking directly into her lens is of no importance, for the connection between photographer and subject is intense and undeniable.
On view from Friday January 26th 2007 to Tuesday February 6th, 2007:
11:00-18:00, Monday-Thursday

The End |
Vernissage: Friday January 12th, 2007. 17:00-20:00
The End is a collection of photographs presented by emerging photographer Lynne Anderson that challenges the viewer to question their feelings about life and death and the beauty of both. The artist uses road kill to convey the violence and emotion of death, while presenting it in a way that is both beautiful and spiritual at the same time. Although graphic and shocking to look at, "The End" has a beauty that is hard to forget.
On view from Friday January 12th 2007 to Tuesday January 23rd 2007:
