Laurie Anderson: The Gray Rabbit
In association with One Yellow Rabbit High Performance Rodeo 2012.
Laurie Anderson is one of today’s premier performing and multi-media artists. Through this autobiographical video installation – where dreamlike video images shift on a transient sculptural landscape – Anderson re-explores her memories of a pivotal childhood event, realizing that what she remembers and what she recounts to people is a “cleansed” version of the tale … what is palatable for her to remember.
Edward Burtynsky: Encounters
Edward Burtynsky’s stunning photographs document landscapes that have been transformed by human activity. Glenbow has invited 30 Canadians, from different walks of life and with different perspectives, to each select a work by Burtynsky for this exhibition. Each community curator brings their own meaning to the artwork, creating a new dialogue about humanity’s impact on the landscapes Burtynsky photographs.
Iain Baxter&: 1N4ORMAT1ON
Iain Baxter& is recognized internationally as one of Canada’s pioneering conceptual artists. For 50 years Baxter& has been creating thought-provoking work that is simultaneously a joy to experience. 1N40RMAT1ON explores Baxter&’s interest in the fusion and the confusion between natural and information landscapes in our world.
