CURTIS CUTSHAW Born in Edmonton, Alberta 1967 Lives in Calgary, Alberta
CURTIS CUTSHAW Born in Edmonton, Alberta 1967 Lives in Calgary, Alberta Artist Statement Curtis Cutshaw’s paintings show us how a painting is made. Each step of the Artist’s process can be seen. Each choice is there for the viewer to unravel, as if stopped in time. Each piece shows a choice, a step forward to the final realization of the complete painting. Fractured and deconstructed images on individual birch wood tiles create a sense of removal of meaning. Scratched, rubbed, marked, erased and distressed images hint at repurposing and the multiple pieces appear to have had a history, where in fact the artist creates them. The viewers’ mind wants to reassemble the pieces and use what is there to create what is not there. Cutshaw does not allow for the accidental. The works may appear spontaneous, yet every piece, every mark; whether it is painted, drawn or scratched, is intentional and created by the artist. The artists’ touch, his hand and his construction are at the center of each work. Cutshaw has an ongoing dialogue with the picture plane. Depending on what the artist does with each piece in the painting, he either adds to or denies spatial reference. A mark scratched into the surface flattens the picture plane, denying illusionistic space, bringing the viewers’ eye to the surface; where half of a circle implies the whole, creating illusionistic space. Through Cutshaw’s paintings, the viewer can experience this dichotomy and the viewer is able to see one choice and a thousand choices through assemblage. Each shape is a record of a moment that can be seen, experienced, and arrived. -

We do that through a diverse range of programs and services offered at our four locations throughout Toronto. We are excited to share with you, through our 2009 Annual Report, just some of the highlights of our last year. During 2009 we faced a City of Toronto strike, the H1N1 virus and the continued impact of the global economic crisis. Whether it was working with the community to clean up Grange Park last summer, or providing information on H1N1, or offering financial management workshops for newcomers, University Settlement and our community confronted the challenges together making it easier to manage. -

(c) 1997 Terry Fenton CANADIAN PRAIRIE WATERCOLOUR LANDSCAPES I VISITORS WEST FOR THE PURPOSES OF watercolour landscape painting in prairie Canada (with the exception of Paul Kane and Lewis Hine who traveled overland earlier in the century and were concerned primarily with documentation) our history begins in 1887 when William Van Horne, then general manager and subsequently president of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Van Horne issued railroad passes to artists, encouraging them to paint scenery from the interior of the new country — especially what were to become the mountain parks. He shrewdly judged that the images would attract both tourists and settlers both of whom would be obliged to use the railway. In a sense, this use repeated the conditions of the Grand Tour as well as Turner’s visits to the Alps and Italy in search of the picturesque and the sublime: both the purpose and character of the trip and the scenery pursued were English in spirit — one can imagine the artists perusing and applying the principles of Ruskin’s Modern Painters throughout the journey. Equally English were the means chosen — the artists worked from nature in watercolour as often as not, and produced large “exhibition watercolours” based upon them. They also painted oils, but like so many of their British counterparts of the day, their oils tended to be still and pedestrian. -

DAVEANDJENN Whenever It Hurts
DAVEANDJENN Whenever It Hurts January 19 - February 23, 2019 Opening: Saturday January 19, 3 - 6 pm artists in attendance detail: “Play Bow” In association with TrépanierBaer Gallery, photos by: M.N. Hutchinson GENERAL HARDWARE CONTEMPORARY 1520 Queen Street West, Toronto, M6R 1A4 www.generalhardware.ca Hours: Wed. - Sat., 12 - 6 pm email: [email protected] 416-821-3060 DaveandJenn (David Foy and Jennifer Saleik) have collaborated since 2004. Foy was born in Edmonton, Alberta in 1982; Saleik in Velbert, Germany, in 1983. They graduated with distinction from the Alberta College of Art + Design in 2006, making their first appearance as DaveandJenn in the graduating exhibition. Experimenting with form and materials is an important aspect of their work, which includes painting, sculpture, installation, animation and digital video. Over the years they have developed a method of painting dense, rich worlds in between multiple layers of resin, slowly building up their final image in a manner that is reminiscent of celluloid animation, collage and Victorian shadow boxes. DaveandJenn are two times RBC Canadian Painting Competition finalists (2006, 2009), awarded the Lieutenant Governor of Alberta’s Biennial Emerging Artist Award (2010) and longlisted for the Sobey Art Award (2011). DaveandJenn’s work was included in the acclaimed “Oh Canada” exhibition curated by Denise Markonish at MASS MoCA – the largest survey of contemporary Canadian art ever produced outside of Canada. Their work can be found in both private and public collections throughout North America, including the Royal Bank of Canada, the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, the Calgary Municipal Collection and the Art Gallery of Hamilton. -

Heffel Fine Art Auction House raised the bar to another high standard - selling $22.8-million worth of Canadian art - easily surpassing their conservative presale estimate of a $12 to $16-million sale. This is a new Canadian record and is almost double the value of the previous record $12.5-million sale, also set by Heffel, on November 25, 2005. The top four lots of the evening each exceeded one million dollars; two of them by Group of Seven artist Lawren Harris; two by Tom Thomson. The spectacular 32 x 38 inch cover lot - Pine Tree and Red House, Winter, City Painting II - painted by Lawren Harris, went for an astounding price of $2,875,000 (all prices include a 15% Buyer's Premium). This makes it the second most valuable Canadian painting to ever sell at auction. Paul Kane's Scene from the Northwest - Portrait is the top seller at $5,062,500. An 18 x 20 inch oil on canvas Snow, Algonquin Park by Lawren Harris sold for $1,035,000. Two 12 x 15 inch oil on board paintings by Lawren Harris surpassed their estimates. Lake Superior Sketch X (Pic Island) and Ice Berg, Smith Sound, II sold for $575,000 each. Four rare Tom Thomson sketches, each oil on board image measuring 8-1/2 x 10-1/2 inches were strong in this sale.
