This afternoon (Sat.Mar.19) Toronto’s URBAN GALLERY launched a new exhibition – twenty five emerging artists strut their stuff as adventurers in the realm of lures, traps, and transcendence in this year’s Centennial College Studio Arts Program 1st year student exhibition entitled TEMPT: an exploration of tainted grace in the contemporary world.
Urban’s curator, Allen Shugar did an inspiring job presenting each work – here he is greeting gallery guests (below)….
…and above with business partner Calvin (R) and Centennial’s arts program coordinator David McClyment(C) .
Lots of family and friends came out to support the young painters (below)
The artists were all excited and pleased to see their works hung on a professional gallery wall….promises of things to come!
My fab assistant, Gabriella, was busy posting pics to Instagram but I managed to snap her quickly (bottom left of picture, below)
The show runs until Saturday March 26th so I encourage you to drop by and support these young artists. Gallery hours and directions: http://www.urbangallery.ca/ but if you can’t make it down in person, enjoy this brief virtual walk thru the gallery. THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING CANADIAN ARTISTS!
