Px (c): Adjacking Opening Reception: May 11th, 6PM to 9PM Artists routinely paint the world around them, but rarely do the images generated by mass marketing filter into the work. Montreal artist Px (c) presents a series of paintings which incorporate logos and other marketing images like Mr. Clean, Bear Paws Soft Cookies, and Sinclair Gasoline. Rendered in Px (c)'s unique pop art style, these works combine the humor of Albert Camus and the visual insight of Barbara Kruger. Px (c) is the alter-corporate identity of Montreal artist Benoit Depelteau. Depelteau was born in 1977 in Montréal where he continues to live and work. He earned a Baccalauréat en arts visuals from L'Université du Québec à Montréal in 2001 and opened a collective studio in September 2003. In 2004, Fading T.S.F and Preventorium Rd. #2 were published in Nor: Ideas of North with events in Montréal and Toronto. In 2005, the Montréal band Dook used Quadra in the packaging for their Archaic CD.
The public is invited to attend an Opening Reception on Friday, May 11th from 6PM to 9PM.
Gallery hours are Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from Noon to 6PM and Saturday from 10AM to 4PM.
