Exhibits and events:
Four artists who met and became friends when we all had studios in the same building are joining together for this exhibition entitled “4 Pallettes". It is our first in-gallery exhibition since the pandemic. Marja Hogan is showing detailed oil paintings of flowers, Sandra Boorne is exhibiting acrylic and mixed media abstracted floral paintings, Kathryn Gabinet-Kroo will show mixed media works of birds and flowers painted in oil on Japanese papers and I will present photographs of iconic Montreal landmarks, printed on acrylic. While this may seem like an unusual combination, the artists’ different approaches to the world around them come together to make this a fascinating show.

For this 4th edition of Celebrating Entomophilia, the Insectarium makes an appearance at MUTEK Montréal, with a musical creation by Leon Louder. This four-beat piece has been created entirely with sounds produced by insects. Playful and magnetic, the energy of insects permeates this ecosystem of sounds, unfolding quirky polyrhythms and sensitive harmonies.
The performance will take place on August 22 at 6:30 pm, on the outdoor stage at the Esplanade Tranquille. The composition will then be available for online listening on various platforms. A podcast discussing Leon Louder’s process in creating this piece will also be broadcast this fall.
