#artcriticfromhell | arts writer & curator | I take pictures of what's left when the world ends
Vollick is a multi disciplinary artist who showed some newer works in the Dennis Tourbin space at NAC: his photos are evocative and I found I couldn’t stop thinking about them, so here’s some of those thoughts that the work inspired.
Steve deBruyn’s solo exhibition in the main space at NAC, that challenged the idea of “fine art” and brought aspects of labour and discards into the gallery space, literally and metaphorically.
Geoff Farnsworth was one of the first artists I met here in Niagara, and his portraits are among some of the finest I’ve seen, combining both a strong sense of his sitters and a distinctive style that is both intense and yet seems to enhance the portrait. Another of my ongoing Artist Features.
An exhibition at NAC that challenges the idea of space, place and time: “time stands still in travel” was an idea that I brought with me into this show, and the works are as diverse as they are resonant about ‘travelling.’
