APRIL 30, THURSDAY/JEUDI 30 AVRIL An Exhibition of work by Chad gerth. Installed at Art Chicago, Chad Gerth's photo series Empty Lots represents Chicago's urban cityscape though imagery of vacant lots from above. The resulting planes of shape and colour portray the city not through its distinctive skyline, but through the flatness of its natural terrain. The modernist construction of the urban area is exemplified by the rigidly defined boundaries of both the city's grid and the tightly cropped and carefully composed photographs. Till May 4 2009, Au 4 Mai 2009. *MADE OPENING RECEPTION 7 - 9 PM/VERNISSAGE 19h00 a 21h00 West of Bathurst, between Euclid & Manning www.madedesign.ca Gallery Director: Madame Julie Nicholson.

Installation artist and interior architect, Matthew Nye applies contemporary architectural form to the design of an eighties office interior. With a tongue in cheek nod to that dated but ubiquitous setting; an anomalous protrusion renders the space unusable, suggesting an instantaneous occurrence or a mistake. The combinations of architectural language create both a visual awe and a discomfort which address the highly subjective manner in which we appreciate the built environment.
