Opening Reception for Elinor Whidden and Barb Hobot exhibitions

Over the last decade, Elinor Whidden has travelled across Canada and the United States staging situations that challenge the prevailing myth of the North American frontier.

Anonymous Cavalier, from the series Old West: Roadkill Redux, 2012.

Barbara Hobot’s multidisciplinary artworks are made from objects that have been manipulated, traced, and translated from one medium into another. Hobot’s aim is to create a circumstance in which the artworks themselves appear to be self-generating.

Strong Bonds, (detail), 2015.

The exhibition continues at UWAG from January 14 to March 5, 2015.
