Nicholas Metivier Gallery

451 King Street West

Toronto ON M5V 1K4

MacFarlane’s paintings are kaleidoscopic spacescapes that balance recognizable forms with abstract painterly detail. Based on maquettes of found materials, the paintings oscillate between real and imaginary, object and place. Psychedelic colour, puzzle-like shapes and overlapping planes wrap, twist, fold and dissolve, referencing Post-Impressionism, Cubism and Surrealism.

Show runs until November 5.

For more information and images from the show visit Nicholas Metivier Gallery online here.

Eyes Wide Shut: Contemporary Drawings from Germany

Triangle Alum Karlis Rekevics site specific sculpture at the Brooklyn Bridge Park (Sculpture)

Untitled, 2009, Plaster, Human scale, approx. 15 x 16 x 45 feet, Installed for Sculpture Key West 2009, Key West, Florida

Karlis Rekevics has created a temporary large-scale sculpture based on the unique urban environment of DUMBO.  Rekevics is inspired by the overlooked infrastructure of the man-made landscape and translates this experience through memory and the intensely physical construction process of making molds and casting plaster.   The artist seeks to make something significant about the insignificant places that we see but don’t see everyday.

Triangle Alum Eve Bailey, 56 Water Street

Eve Bailey’s performances will be:
Saturday September 24th 2-5pm
Sunday September 25th 2-5pm

French-born, NYC-based artist Eve Bailey likes to snuggle closely with the forms she creates. She designs and builds ergonomic sculptures that she uses to perform humorous body workouts and poetic balancing acts.

Triangle Alum Pia Linz, 81 Front Street

(Box Engraving: EIDIA House Studio 2011)

In the EIDIA House Studio, Pia Linz created the whole room drawing by sitting on a table in the center of a room, within the polyhedron structure and drawing everything in her view onto the plexi-glass sides of the polyhedron. Later, in her studio, she renders the drawing permanent by engraving the lines into the plexiglass.

Triangle alum Ari Tabei, 56 Water Street

‘Runaway Cape-Cart’ is an investigation in both individual and communal concepts of ‘nest/home/community’ as a temporary shelter, through a task of ‘nesting’ a mobile habitat and performing it.

Saturday 9/24: 1PM, 2:30PM, 4PM, 5:30PM

Sunday 9/25: 1PM, 2:30PM, 4PM, 5:30PM

Please join us Thursday, September 15 from 6-9 pm for the closing reception of between the tongue and the taste and then again on Sunday, September 18 from 12-6 pm for the soft opening of Rain Dance.

How does an artist’s mark derive its power? Using a variety of media, Eve Bailey (workshop ’04) and Albert Pedulla (workshop ’02) examine the relationship between body and mind from opposite ends of the spectrum.

Rain Dance, like the ritual from which it takes its name, features work that metaphorically examines the contemporary ambivalence with the state of the natural world, and considers how much control we can have over it. Additionally, the work of Nick Lamia (workshop ’04), Jason Middlebrook and Leslie Wayne, each in their own way, investigates the universal notions of ambivalence and simultaneity.

Rain Dance will be on view next week Tuesday-Thursday and Sunday from 12-6 pm.

We will also be holding extended gallery hours during the DUMBO Arts Festival, Friday, September 23 from 6-9 pm and Saturday, September 24 from 12-8 pm with the official reception for the artists, Saturday, September 24 from 5-8 pm.
