Opening Reception Summer Exhibitions

Join us in celebrating Gallery 44's summer exhibitions opening in all four galleries! The reception begins at 6:00PM with the presentation of OUTREACH Awards commencing at 6:30PM.

Almanac, an annual member-run exhibition (formerly 365) opens in the Main Gallery surveying the work of over 120 artists within the membership. An almanac brings to mind seasons, celestial cycles and terrestrial forecasts—an assembly of disparate pieces of information, once seemingly disconnected, converge to bring new patterns to light—presenting observations of the past with anticipation for the future. Each contributing Gallery 44 member chose an image—they are proud of, interested in, working with, or working through; a visual compilation of observations, thoughts, themes, inspirations and curiosities—to represent the past year.

In the Members' Gallery, unfixed celebrates the creative accomplishments of participating youth from ENAGB Indigenous Youth Agency, Nia Centre for the Arts and The Remix Project, in a culminating exhibition from OUTREACH, G44’s award-winning darkroom program for youth throughout the GTA.

In the Vitrines, Rahim Perez-Anderson debuts In My Dreams, I Held You Close. A growing exploration of emotional intimacy, gesture, and connection between the artist and his two brothers; Nathan and Jare. This project illuminates the current state of their relationship, undefined and rigid, and how themes such as vulnerability, love, and bond have not yet manifested.

In the Production Gallery, Imprint brings together work from participants in the Low Res Photo Intensive Course, led by Darren Rigo and Camille Rojas.
