THE MOMENT ETERNAL

SCULPTURAL IMAGES – BRET CULP Leonardo Gallery is pleased to present a new exhibition of photographic works as an official venue of the CONTACT Photography festival
Roots creep over rock searching for refuge and nourishment, neglected bricks and mortar crumble under the elements and return to the earth, a mountain is slowly devoured by the sea forming a precipice – these are photographs of matter governed by time chosen to illustrate the relentless determination of nature, the beauty in impermanence, and the eternal cycle of creation out of destruction.

Bret Culp has recently won a Spider Award for his feature photograph Strength, whose symbolism ties in with his recent personal experiences in life and philosophies about the strength of the human will and fortitude of our fragile bodies. John Long has a compelling series done in stereo photography, a rare and historic technique of viewing images in three-dimension. John Long is a man of infinite love of historic techniques, methods, equipment and aesthetic. He’s an informative and charismatic individual who enthrals his audience. John will also show a stunning series of large-scale panoramic landscapes that engulf the viewer into detailed scenes.

February
3 to March 19, 2006 - "CONVERGENCE"
This exhibition is one of the most popular events on the Tom Thomson Art Gallery calendar. It is an opportunity to survey current visual arts practice by a wide range of artists, from graduating students to senior members of the visual arts community, in all fine art media including the traditional: painting, drawing, printmaking, photography and sculpture; as well as the contemporary craft media and time-based formats. The exhibition aims to reward excellence and innovation in artistic production. Since this annual show "takes the pulse" of art making in the region, we look for work that exemplifies what makers are thinking about- contemporary artists' concerns, working methods, and methods of exploration. This year the Gallery has assembled a strong jury to select the exhibition from works submitted from all over Ontario. Celebrated painter and visual artist Alan Glicksman had a much-lauded exhibition at Engine Gallery in Toronto in Fall 2005 and recently relocated to Owen Sound. Printmaker and multi-media artist Steven White from Walter's Falls is represented by Edward Day Gallery in Toronto. Dr. Katharine Lochnan, the R. Fraser Elliott Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto recently produced the blockbuster exhibition Turner Whistler Monet and the touring show David Milne Watercolours: "Painting Toward the Light" that opens at the AGO in February.
