Dimitri Papatheordorou-New Works Opens:   5 November, 2006 Closes: 30 November, 2006 Architect and painter Dimitri Papatheodorou will be exhibiting his latest paintings based on contemporary architectural interiors. These ethereal works have an other world feel about them while remains accurate representations of our urban environment. Opening Reception Sunday, November 5, 2006, 2-4 pm. Dimitri Papatheodorou is a Toronto-based architect and painter (and composer), whose exhibition at 1313, Encounters, has apparently inspired by the architecturally scaled works (the Torqued Ellipses, in particular) of American sculptor Richard Serra. It's not easy, especially at first, to see the links between Papatheodorou's delicate, ethereally painted pictures (you'd swear they were photographs) and the huge, sweaty Serra sculptures -- big Faustian bendings of heavy Cor-Ten steel. But, as Papatheodorou points out in his gallery statement, Serra's work is "all about the close encounter between artifact and viewer" and notes that Serra "does with sculpture what I want to do with painting." This is quite impossible, of course, and Papatheodorou's extremely deft and delicate works could not be more removed from the spirit of Serra's strenuous, Paul-Bunyan-esque, space-bending energies. What they do well, however, is to depict a lovely, veiled light falling softly into the picture space. For me, they make a better tribute to Le Corbusier's famous Chapel of Notre Dame du Haut at Ronchamps, France, than they do to any Tilted Arc or Torqued Ellipse you can imagine.

"As with any excursion or pilgrimage there are implicit questions that predate the departure. What to Bring. What one expects to find on arrival.

Caroline deMooy and Marie de Sousa Opens:   6 June, 2004 Closes: 29 June, 2004 Whats your Hurry? Two artists explore the pace of life at very different speeds. deMooy gets down to a cellular level with abstract but strangely familiar popping patterns and shapes crisply forming strange inward landscapes. They are slow and contemplative and at the same time like quick, witty visual formulas for surviving the complexities of our daily existence. de Sousa depicts moving landscape that is slowed down. She toys with how we actually contemplate our daily existence and the reality of that is a blurred image. Her images pause and cause us to pause as well. Please contact me if you require any further information.
