  • W^Tersfiis Glacier Fre< a Spread You Don't Want for Breakfast
    The Fre< W^tersfiiS Glacier HHkt lilllllll The weekly summer newspaper and activity guide serving the International Peace Park Region August 14,1996 Volume 5, Issue No. 14 A spread you don't want for breakfast WATERTON - You can't eat it, but you can sure get stuck in it, a bear jam, that is. And Waterton Lakes National Park has been seeing a few jams over the last week. What happens, according to warden Mary Coleman, is that a bear, sometimes on its own, sometimes with her cubs, makes its way to a roadside in the park and hangs out there. If it's during daylight hours, tourists driving by stop to take a look or take a picture. Before long, there are several vehicles lined up trying to get a better look, and soon traffic comes to a halt. Coleman indicates that the Red Rock Road saw the most jams this past week, but while being interviewed she was viewing another black bear and her two cubs on the main roadside leading to the Prince of Wales hill. That family was observed often in the area last week, also. "There's been 15 different bears on the road to Red Rock, and four single bears in the Crandell Lake campground," she says. It may be that the ripening saskatoon berries are bringing them out she speculates (makings for another kind of jam). None are^eausing any trouble, she adds. So wardens don't consider moving them out of the area. If alerted in time, usually by campground staff or other park employees, they'll head out to the scene, especially if cubs are involved They make sure visitors don't get too close and that they don't get between a mum and her cubs.

Glenbow provides us with a sense of place – what it means to live in this amazing landscape – and an appreciation for the legacy of the remarkable people and events that have shaped our community. We are proud to collect, showcase and involve Alberta’s wealth of artistic talent in our programming and to offer a glimpse into the artistic and cultural achievements of other parts of the world. Glenbow has always been a trusted place to explore ideas, to present new ways of thinking, and to open discussions on topical issues in our community. In the year ahead, we’ll be planning programs and exhibitions to celebrate our 50th Anniversary. Calgary has changed dramatically in the last 50 years – even the last five years – and Glenbow is repositioning itself to respond to a new generation of visitors. We look to artists and cultural creators to help us explore our world. Artists are fearless observers, and their works – funny, beautiful, poignant, challenging – open the door to new conversations.

  • Alberta Painter Chris Cran Featured in Major Retrospective at National Gallery
    The art of play: Alberta painter Chris Cran featured in major retrospective at National Gallery Peter Robb Ottawa Citizen May 20, 2016 http://ottawacitizen.com/entertainment/local-arts/the-art-of-play-alberta-painter-chris- cran-featured-in-major-retrospective-at-national-gallery * A short video of Cran during a walk through of the exhibition is also found at this link. Canadian artist Chris Cran with some of his work from his exhibit “Sincerely Yours,” which will be on view at the National Gallery of Canada from May 20 to September 5. (Errol McGihon – Post Media) A refreshing chinook from Alberta has blown into the National Gallery of Canada. The breeze is provided by the whimsical, inventive paintings of Calgary artist Chris Cran. Although he is a serious artist with serious things to say about art, culture and society, Cran manages to leaven those messages with a dose of humour that eases the viewer into his conversation. The 66-year-old is the subject of a major retrospective, called Chris Cran: Sincerely Yours. More than 100 pieces are included, ranging from early works, such as the 1985 Self-Portrait with the Combat Nymphos of Saigon, that feature the artist in various situations; to an exploration of Pop and Op art styles (he calls this kind of homage to an art movement “recycling”); to his discovery of the potential of stencils; to more abstract works that play inside a self-described frame and finally to a period that exploits all of the above and that is dotted, literally, with faces pulled from magazines and displayed, as he says, like the omnipresent putti found in Renaissance art.

  • Chris Cran 2018 ABOUT the ARTIST
    EXPLORE Chris Cran 2018 ABOUT THE ARTIST CHRIS CRAN was recently the subject of the major exhibition Chris Cran, Sincerely Yours, featured by both the National Gallery of Canada and the Art Gallery of Alberta. He is known for his ability to play with illusion, for manipulating the perception of the viewer while exploring, fusing and subverting traditional artistic genres as well as contemporary movements, from pop art to abstraction and photorealism. Now Cran, one of the great forces of contemporary Canadian art and a Fellow of The Royal Canadian Geographical Society, has produced Explore, a portrait series depicting some of Canada’s greatest explorers, all of them inextricably linked to the RCGS. “Chris brings a new awareness to our interaction with images,” says Josée Drouin- Brisebois, senior curator of contemporary art for the National Gallery of Canada. “He’s one of those special people who sees the world and his subjects in a different way, and he shares that with us — the things we might have been missing.” His contributions to the contemporary art scene have been enormous, she says, as he has given both his art and, as a mentor, himself to the artistic community. Cran, who lives in Calgary, has been a prolific and influential artistic presence in Canada for decades. A graduate of the Alberta College of Art + Design, where he was an instructor from the 1990s until 2018, he has helped shape generations of new visual artists. In addition to the permanent collections of the National Gallery and the AGA, his often satirical and self- referential works appear in galleries and private collections across Canada and internationally.
