"LIVE / WORK "
An Exhibition of photography by Stephen Brookbank.
From the August, 2008 essay by Christopher Youngs:
" In Brookbank's eye, these images of the codependency between industry and housing are magnified, quietly dramatized, by the close juxtaposition of the home and the factory. These factories, oil depots and warehouses are still functioning, and the adjacent houses are still
occupied - forming an unexpected symbiotic relationship."

"a body of work that had a significant influence on major photographers"
An Exhibition of photographs by Harold Edgerton.
Monsieur Harold Edgerton was a professor of electrical engineering at MIT and the inventor of the strobe light, which allowed him to literally freeze objects in the frame of the photograph. His inventive works captured the effects of motion, the human form and phenomena too fast for the human eye to perceive. With Edgerton's photography it was possible, for the first time, to see a remarkable range of objects in motion: the exact moment a bullet pierces through a playing card, the infinitesimal positions of a swinging gold club, the smooth motion of gymnasts tumbling or the rapid swings of a lacrosse player.
Monsieur Gus Kayafas will give a brief talk on the work of Monsieur Harold Edgerton.
&
"Südwest"
- familiar, or seemingly familiar, landscapes -
An Exhibition of a large, abstract photographs by Leipzig-based Frank Mädler.
The works are enigmatic and dream-like, with little evidence of human engagement or narrative potential. At 4' x 6', the photographs are large but decidedly minimal, with little visual information relating the images to the scenes depicted. Like much of Mädler's work, these ambiguous compositions call attention to the relationship between the passage of time and its visual representation.

A museum, gallery or science centre is often the first place many of us get to view and interact with displays that illuminate the wonders behind our everyday experience of the world. The Ontario Science Centre's Science Arcade is such a place. For almost four decades, it has engaged us hands-on in exhibits that inspire and compel us to see how science plays an integral part in our lives, etching memories of delight. It's fun. It's science. Can we come to see it as art? What new wonders might we see in that act?

"photo-transfer, gold leaf & resin coating on panel"
An Exhibition of painting by Steven Nederveen.
Steven Nederveen studied fine art at Medicine Hat College and went on to receive a Bachelor of Design from the University of Alberta in 1995. The following year he moved to Vancouver (1996-2000) where Steven practiced meditation and found that this experience combined with the beauty of the landscape greatly contributed to his growth as a person and an artist. It was these moments that lead Steven to use painting to draw connections between our natural environment and aspects of spirituality. By blurring the lines between photography and painting, he develops a magical realism that inspires us to see the world with new eyes. By using distressing and aging the work he creates the sense of past and present, of struggle and transformation. A glass-like layer of resin coats each painting enhancing the clarity of the image and reflecting the viewer into the work.
