Speaker Series: Artistic Approaches in Dialogue: Responses to Jack Shadbolt

Please join us for a compelling conversation that brings contemporary artistic voices into dialogue with the legacy of Jack Shadbolt. For our second talk in this series, it will center on the creative processes and research practices of two artists featured in the exhibition One Hundred Artists Deep, opening at the Gordon Smith Gallery of Canadian Art on April 10: Alex Gibson and Chantal Gibson (no relation). Both artists undertook a deep engagement with selected works by Shadbolt from the Artists for Kids Collection, approaching them through the lens of their own histories, identities, and artistic practices.

Moderated by Curatorial Fellow Andrea Valentine-Lewis, this talk invites audiences to consider artistic legacy not as something fixed, but as something continually reinterpreted through contemporary practice.

We hope you can join us.

Admission is by donation. Suggested donation: $10.
