Yaletown Gallery – “Structure & Curio” (Oct. 16 to 31, 2008)
“Structure & Curio“, a collaborative ensemble show featuring a talented collective of current artists and alumni from Emily Carr University, is opening at the Yaletown Gallery (123–1208 Homer Street at Davie) on Thursday October 16 at 6:30pm.
The show explores many bizarre, unusual, interesting, sometimes overlooked examples of Structure within nature, the human body, memories, dreams, etc. Curio (as in decorative curiosities) is also examined through works that range from provocative to colorful, eclectic to thought provoking; each one the invention of a different artist’s personality and vision. The ensuing result is a sensory kaleidoscope for the eyes, and mental stimulation for the brain. This sensory stimulation covers a variety of forms, among them painting, sculpture and photographs. The works create a sundry feast providing something for everyone to enjoy, from the seasoned art lover to the neophyte.
This opening is a unique opportunity for visitors to meet the artists in person and discuss with them their creations and thought process. The event and food are free to the public but with limited space. “Structure & Curio” runs until October 31. For more event details, RSVP to their Facebook Event.
