Davie: Dangerous Curves
Through
Sunday, May 14, 2006
A
true innovator, Davie redefines the modernist convention of stripe painting by
inserting gesture and the artist's hand back into optical, hard-edged, geometric
convention. Her work explores the boundaries between representation and abstraction
while simultaneously alluding to the figure, memory, and landscape. Formal

Great
Masters Series: Vincent van Gogh
May
28 to September 23, 2006 This
summer, visitors to the AGH will have the unique opportunity to admire a select
group of masterpieces by Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), loaned from museums near
and far. Van Gogh is one of the most broadly loved artists of all time; his canvases
consistently set record prices on the market. However, misconceptions persist
regarding his life, art and the sources of his originality. Van Gogh zealously
embraced his artistic profession and prolifically created close to a thousand
paintings in a career spanning only a decade (1880-90). This focus exhibition
unites five major works from each of the key periods of van Gogh's career-his
early Dutch period (1880-85), his time in Paris (1886-87), his first mature period
in Arles (1888-89), and his last years in Saint-RŽmy and Auvers-interpreting the
images contextually in order to provide a richer understanding of van Gogh's approach,
and to allow viewers to discover the roots and development of his style and themes.

Nude

Selections from the Permanent Collection
May
12 - August 27, 2006
Opening reception Friday, May 12 at 7 pm
It is with this collection of drawings from Rodman HallÕs permanent collection
that one can question and compare the two terms; naked and nude. Each artist has
approached the female subject in a different manner. Some have chosen to see ÒherÓ
as a landscape - the body as a pleasing arrangement of forms and shapes. But others
have captured intimate moments of their subjects which seem to connect us to an
individual. Rhonda
Weppler & Trevor Mahovsky
May
12 - July 2, 2006
Opening Friday, May 12 at 7 p.m. These
Vancouver artists are specialists in the translation of everyday objects into
wryly poetic monuments to consumer culture.Ê They produce representations of common
objects such as staples, coffee cups, flags, shopping carts and cars. Using processes
such as casting, tracing or embossing, to record the shape and surface characteristics
of an object, the finished works translate the forms into commentary.

Tour the exhibition with the artist Thursday, July
13 at 7 p.m. Korean
artist Kumlyun Lee will suspend 400 motion-sensitive tubes of rice paper from
the gallery ceiling at Rodman Hall in her installation. Visitors to the gallery
will walk through the numerous paths surrounded by the paper tubes, their movement
initiating sensor activated coloured light and sounds.Ê In recent years Kumlyun
Lee has been exploring the possibilities of digital technology as a medium for
a reconnection of nature and humanity.Ê For Kumyun Lee, it is the interaction
of the spectator with the art work which brings the art to life. Ed
Pien: Tracing Night

the glassine depict a girl asleep, accompanied by images that appear from her
dream. Rodman
