The Aird is delighted to offer our 2nd annual juried exhibition showcasing collage-based works by contemporary artists.
Derived from the French verb coller, meaning “to glue,” collage refers to both the technique and the resulting work of art in which fragments of paper and other materials are arranged and glued or otherwise affixed to a supporting surface. Associated Art Movements include Cubism, the DADA, and Surrealism. Today, collage, as a process and an art movement is experiencing a second life! We invite and eagerly await your up-to-date submissions!
The John B. Aird Gallery will be open by appointment from 2 to 5 pm on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
According to the province museums, galleries, exhibitions, with limited capacity, may not exceed 50 percent capacity indoors and 75 percent capacity outdoors. Face coverings and physical distancing is required when visiting the gallery.
The gallery relocated to Artscape 906 Queen West in 2019 and will remain at this swing-space until renovations are completed at its original location in the Macdonald Block (at Bay Wellesley) in 2024-25. Your support is greatly appreciated during this exciting transition!
