SUMMARY:She Shoots...She Scores
DESCRIPTION:She Shoots… She Scores will explore the history and legacy of women’s hockey as well as highlight women who have broken down barriers in a sport that has long been dominated by men. This exhibition\, developed with resources from the Hockey Hall of Fame is an exploration of intangible cultural heritage\, which is an evolution through the generations\, much like the development of amateur\, university\, professional and international women’s hockey.\n\nUNESCO defines intangible cultural heritage as “traditions or living expressions inherited from our ancestors and passed on to our descendants\, such as oral traditions\, performing arts\, social practices\, rituals\, festive events\, knowledge and practices concerning nature and the universe or the knowledge and skills to produce traditional crafts.” Sport is part of our lived experience and contributes to the growth and development of a community. While men were developing their skills at hockey\, so were Canadian women\, forming small teams primarily at universities in the late 19th century. The first photograph of a woman’s game was taken in 1890 at Rideau Hall\, Ottawa and featured the Governor General (and namesake of the Stanley Cup)’s daughter\, Isobel Stanley\, wielding a hockey stick. Women have played ever since. She Shoots… She Scores will feature stories\, equipment\, and photographs from the past 100+ years.\n

SUMMARY:HUNTER GAMES: SADKO HADZIHASANOVIC
DESCRIPTION:In my art practice\, I am interested in camouflaging history and ideology in an ironic and often humorous way. Since I moved to Canada in 1993 I was fascinated with the new culture I found myself in and I explored a lot in the area of pop-culture and consumerism.\n\nAs an artist\, I like to explore the construction of identity\, and its cultural and social implications. With an extensive and ongoing portraiture-based body of work\, I use an array of references to popular culture.  I am interested in referring to the environment of my upbringing in Bosnia and the relatively exotic vacation paradise of Cuba and it’s political undertones as well as Canadian culture. I paint works that contrast a childhood lived under the threat of war and an unhurried North American childhood lived without the looming presence of world affairs.\n\nI have produced a body of work\, oil paintings on copper\, video\, prints  and large paintings on canvas regarding the theme of hunting. Since hunting and guns are an issue in North American life and culture\, this body of work is relevant to many questions we pose today: the role of government in controlling the weapons\, how we educate children about guns\, the role profit plays as well as  how we contribute to the resolution of the problem that we face.\n\nThe artist appreciates the support of the Ontario Arts Council.

SUMMARY:24TH ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY ART SHOW: ON THE EDGE
DESCRIPTION:Since its inception in 1997\, this art show has inspired hundreds of women artists to participate in highly dynamic exhibitions\, exploring a wide range of media and themes.\n\nIn celebration of International Women’s Day (March 8)\, the show’s goal is to encourage women to express themselves artistically in a themed group exhibit\, which is not juried and therefore inclusive.\n\nThe spirit if the exhibition is one of affirmation and co-operation.\n\nThe female artists participating in this year’s show come from diverse backgrounds\, are of all ages (teenage and up) and levels of artistic experience. Most of the artists live in the region\, although the show is open to any female artist.\n\nThe wide range of media in the exhibit includes works in oil\, acrylic and watercolour\, as well as mixed media\, printmaking\, photography\, sculpture\, fibre arts and video production.\n\nThis year\, over 130 artists are sharing their art and stories\, interpreting the theme “ON THE EDGE”.\n\nFor more information\, contact: Juliana Hawke womensartshow@gmail.com

SUMMARY:AT RISK: TRACEY LAWKO
DESCRIPTION:Our native pollinators and their habitat are threatened.  Insect populations are declining due to habitat loss\, pesticide use and disease. 75% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to set seed and we humans get one third of our food from flowering plants.\n\nIn recent years\, Tracey has become increasingly aware of the changing patterns of the bees and butterflies in her garden and around her studio in the Niagara Escarpment.  As they move from flower to flower collecting pollen\, they enable the continuation of our food crops and flowering plants.\n\nThrough her finely stitched botanical illustrations\, she invites the viewer to consider the importance of these small creatures to our survival.
