Michael Gibson Gallery Pop-Up Exhibition At The Peter Dušek Gallery

Last month, I spent a few days exploring the wonderful Art Toronto and met Michael Gibson of the Michael Gibson Gallery in London. We had a great conversation that flowed from art to food, music and life. As I was leaving, I mentioned that I have an art gallery in Creemore. Michael said he had been thinking of a way to hold a pop-up exhibition in Creemore. A perfect match: he has the artwork and I, the gallery.

On December 15-16, we will be hosting a two day Michael Gibson Gallery pop-up exhibition at the Peter Dušek Gallery in Creemore, Ontario. Join us for an exhibition featuring an exciting presentation of Canadian art and ski-themed etchings by Internationally renowned artist Peter Doig.

Artists exhibited include: Victor Cicansky, Greg Curnoe, Susan Day, Peter Doig, Aganetha Dyck, Gathie Falk, Roly Fenwick, Jonathan Forrest, Harold Klunder, Dorothy Knowles, Michael Smith, Michael Snow, and Diana Thorneycroft.

N3XT Canada Commentary – Arts & Letters Club [Peter Dušek, Canadian Art]

The following video commentary was recorded about my piece “Cattails in Red” by Andrew Ross, the chair of the N3XT Canada National Art Competition at the Arts & Letters Club in Toronto. He is really insightful, in that he speaks to many of the ideas that I intended to explore when creating the photograph. The theme of the exhibition is “Canadian Unity”.

The theme of the exhibition is “Canadian Unity”.

Time to watch: 70 seconds.

N3XT Art Competition

Cattails in Red, Lake of Bays, Ontario, Canada, 2020

I’m very excited that my piece, “Cattails in Red”, in a large 5 foot wide size, has been accepted into the national Canadian art competition, N3XT, at the historic Arts and Letters Club of Toronto. The theme this year is Canadian Unity.

“A field of cattails in red meander along a snow-covered lake. A state of balance is formed between the negative space of the lake and the positive space of the cattails. Each #cattail symbolizes an individual, and when considered as a whole, shows unity and strength that comes from people — Canadians — working together toward the same goal of fulfilled lives of balance and contentment.”

The N3XT exhibit will be held at the Arts & Letters Club from Thursday, November 19 to Friday, December 18, 2020. On Thursday, November 19, N3XT finalists and awards will be publicly announced during a virtual gala and awards presentation originating from the Arts & Letters Club. The N3XT exhibition will be hosted at the Arts & Letters Club of Toronto until Friday, December 18, 2020.
