Tributaries: exhibition reception (Jun 29)
Please join us to celebrate the opening of a new exhibition Tributaries: Reflections of Aiko Suzuki on June 29, 7-9pm at the Japanese Canadian National Museum.
Gallery conversation at 7:30pm
Aiko Suzuki was a remarkable visual artist of national significance who was known as a feminist, leader and educator in the arts until her death in 2005. This exhibit will pay tribute to Suzuki’s life and work through a display of some of her original work and three multimedia installations by noted writer Joy Kogawa, new music composer Ann Southam, and visual artist Grace Channer, who were each inspired by Suzuki and worked in collaboration with Toronto filmmaker Midi Onodera. Suzuki’s personal dynamism was both stunning and inspiring. This is your chance to experience the energy and spirit of this prolific and fascinating artist.
Exhibition runs June 30-August 28, 2010. Tuesday – Saturday 11am-5pm.
Presented in collaboration with the Powell Street Festival and sponsored by the Deux Mille Foundation and The Leon and Thea Koerner Foundation.
