- Photography exhibitions by Pamela Leach and Sam Baardman -
January 22, 2010 - March 6, 2010
Water — flowing, stagnant,
frozen, thawed, pristine, polluted, winding, pooling, searching, finding — dominates
two photography exhibitions opening on January 22. Pamela Leach, a
professor at Canadian Mennonite University, happened into being a photographer,
pulled by the recurring pooling of an urban puddle and all that it
represents to her. Sam Baardman, a professional in various artistic
pursuits, including photography, came to the gallery’s attention
through the recommendation of artist and friend Bob Haverluck. The
photographers do not know each other but their themes stream together,
causing viewers thoughts to flow from weedy puddle to shoreline to
greater depths. For more information see CANVASs

- Installation and other art by Ruth Maendel -
November 20, 2009 - January 16, 2010. Ruth’s art is not bound
by any particular medium. It might be something that can be hung
on the wall. It might be freestanding. It might be a complicated
installation that took an eternity to map out and as long to put
together. It might be something sublimely simple. It may include
fabric, paint, metal, wood, ceramics, beads or… Regardless,
whatever it is she creates, each piece has the same values and faith
at its core. For more information see see CANVASs
