CUAG: Robert Houle in conversation with Barry Ace

Fact and fiction: 4 stories in Ottawa galleries

Peter Simpson visited our winter exhibitions - read his thoughts below. He writes, "A gentleman was walking through the exhibit as I did, and I wondered if he knew it was a fiction. Would knowing or not knowing the truth better deliver [Carol] Sawyer’s assertions about women’s place in the historical narrative?" We wonder the same thing every time we see someone walking through the exhibition! Thanks for the review!

My brain is about to melt because of memorising these weird words that transformed from French and Deutsch. Architecture history is about memorisation, but clearly I HATE IT.😭#art #french #german

Day 15/366: The vibes of music equals the vibes of life. In a time when everything seems chaotic and out of control, music brings that orderliness that follows a beautiful rhythm to create original thoughts and a sense of livelihood which we never expect.
