SUMMARY:Exhibition: Membranes and Pith 305 & Reverie 25
DESCRIPTION:April 15 2024 – March 15\, 2025\nExhibition: Membranes and Pith 305 & Reverie 25\nCanada Line – Aberdeen Station\nThe Aberdeen Canada Line Station Art Wrap is presented in partnership with City of Richmond Public Art. What emotions or memories can food unearth? What do our meals reveal about our sense of belonging\, family and history? In Membranes and Pith 305 and Reverie 25\, Vancouver-based multidisciplinary artist Cherry Archer utilizes the evocative powers of culinary plants deeply rooted in her Trinidadian heritage to create images that awaken memories of her family and culture. She freezes produce in water\, creating a “botanical ice tile\,” which she then illuminates with coloured light\, photographs\, and prints in large format.\nWebsite: https://www.richmondartgallery.org/cherry-archer

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Dear Plastic
DESCRIPTION:January 18 – March 23\nExhibition: Dear Plastic\nRichmond Art Gallery\n7700 Minoru Gate\nOpening Reception: January 18\, 2pm-4pm\nArtwork by Ari Bayuaji\, Emily Hermant\, Caroline Monnet\, Alex Tedlie-Stursberg\, and Cheryl Wong. Curated by Zoë Chan. The five featured artists of Dear Plastic straddle the divide between what is considered artificial versus natural in their engagement with plastic. They clearly delight in the potential of plastic as artistic material\, which they reuse\, repurpose\, or reimagine to fashion visually arresting works. The thought-provoking pieces in this exhibition avoid a simple environmentalist stance or nostalgia for untouched landscapes.\nWebsite: https://www.richmondartgallery.org/dear-plastic\nGeorgia Straight: https://www.straight.com/arts/richmond-art-gallery-opens-2025-by-highlighting-climate-and-plastic-issues\nPancouver Article: https://pancouver.ca/richmond-art-gallerys-dear-plastic-exhibition-reflects-on-a-ubiquitous-and-inescapable-material/

SUMMARY:Lulu Speaker Series - Josée Drouin-Brisebois - Beyond the Museum’s Walls
DESCRIPTION:March 13\nLulu Speaker Series – Josée Drouin-Brisebois – Beyond the Museum’s Walls\nWilson School of Design\,\nKwantlen Polytechnic University\,\n5600 Kwantlen St\n6pm\nFree with registration required.\nFor many people\, art museums are places that are inaccessible\, irrelevant and unconnected to their life experiences. The very architecture of these “temples” with their imposing façades can be intimidating for people who feel neither represented nor welcomed in these buildings; meanwhile\, museums like the National Gallery of Canada have a mandate to develop\, maintain and make known their collections and to promote knowledge\, understanding and appreciation of art.\nHow do we reconcile the mission of museums and the apprehensions of considerable segments of the public? How can we share works from the national collection to make them more accessible to communities? How can we work with the communities themselves to create transformative experiences with local\, national\, and even international influence? These are some of the questions at the core of the museum’s renewed National Engagement initiative directed by Josée Drouin-Brisebois.\nThe Lulu Series is an annual spring series of talks about Art in the City and its importance to establishing connections between citizens and their communities.\nWebsite: https://www.richmond.ca/culture/calendar/special-events/lulu.htm \nTo Register: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/lulu-lecture-series-beyond-the-museums-walls-with-josee-drouin-brisebois-tickets-1254924516009
