Dream Mechanism – 2024 Summer Group Exhibition
Lipont Gallery
4211 No. 3 Road
Opening August 8, 2024 7-9pm at Lipont Gallery
Nine Metro Vancouver-based artists explore the “new normal” in the post-epidemic era. The progress of artificial intelligence and synthetic biology, human cell regeneration, and virtual reality and augmented reality will soon be integrated into human life. Humans are facing an era of new and old productivity and may experience changes in ethics and the reshaping of moral norms soon. The artists lead us to think deeply, and in the dreamlike “reality”, they can achieve “nostalgia” or foresight through their works of art. The exhibition features painting, drawing, sculpture, assemblage, fibre art, ceramic, and digital prints by Daniil Alikov, Sally Clark, Mallory Donen, Anyuta Gusakova, Sofiya Mukhachova, Maude Ren, Sabine Simons, Grace Tao, and Guo Yan.

Nazareth is a Scottish rock band that emerged in the late 1960s and achieved international success in the 1970s. Formed in 1968 in Dunfermline, Scotland, the original lineup consisted of vocalist Dan McCafferty, guitarist Manny Charlton, bassist Pete Agnew, and drummer Darrell Sweet. The band’s breakthrough came with their 1973 album “Razamanaz,” featuring the hit single “Broken Down Angel.” Nazareth continued to gain popularity with a string of successful albums, including “Loud ‘n’ Proud” (1973), “Rampant” (1974), and “Hair of the Dog” (1975), which included the iconic title track. The Headpins, a Canadian rock group formed as a side project in the late 1970s by Chilliwack members Ab Bryant and Brian MacLeod, quickly gained traction in the Vancouver music scene.
