  • CURTIS CUTSHAW Born in Edmonton, Alberta 1967 Lives in Calgary, Alberta

    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.

(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.

Glenbow Report to the Community 2014 – 15 125,697 Total annual attendance between April 1, 2014 – March 31, 2015 4,108 Number of visitors who received complimentary admission through special access programs (Aboriginal Access Program, SunLife Arts & Culture Pass, Community Outreach Program, Cultural Access Program for new Canadian citizens) 7,394 Number of people assisted with research requests and access to Glenbow’s collections MAKING AN IMPACT As a key cultural cornerstone in Calgary for nearly 50 years, Glenbow has surprised and engaged generations of Albertans and visitors to the province with remarkable connections between art, culture and the world around us. 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.
