George C. Hogg in the Gallery at Centre 64
George has no ‘favourite’ subject and enjoys producing works of the beautiful landscapes of the Canadian west, capturing the wildlife that inhabits our forests and recording the history of buildings and times past. In his works of the native peoples and their pow wows, he captures the spirit of the people and shows his great love of their culture and history. Next up in the Gallery is Threshold, the art of Brandon Gabriel.
“Threshold”
Gallery Centre 64 April 26 – May 21
Kwantlen Nation Artist Brandon Gabriel’s work is situated somewhere amongst many styles of art and despite the variations of mediums and styles- one thing that is strikingly similar to all these works are the spectral colours and similar narratives of cultural, political, and spiritual reclamations. His work is situated neither here nor there- A threshold.”
Exhibition Opening Reception: April 30th | 2-4 pm | Centre 64 Gallery
