Budget Cuts
Cathy Busby
Every Line and Every Other Line
curated by J.J. Kegan McFadden
September, October, 2012
Artist Talk September 15, 2pm
Pulling together the work of emerging and established artists in the lens based and photographic arts, Every Line & Every Other Line calls into question the history of portraiture, but also makes evident the political implications of how the face, and the mouth in particular, act as a contested site. Working in photographic installation, framed prints and video installation, these artists exemplify a diverse approach to the medium, but also the subject matter. Every Line will feature work by Cathy Busby, Brendan Fernandes, Bruce LaBruce, Suzy Lake and Arthur Renwick and is a curatorial project by J.J. Kegan McFadden. This exhibition from Platform Gallery (Winnipeg) will occupy both gallery spaces.
