The Windows Salon of the Chapel Gallery is featuring a display no artist or gardener will want to miss.
Through the Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Council's Arts on the Move program, There's an Artist in the Garden, a touring exhibition from the Permanent Collection of the Saskatchewan Arts Board will be at the gallery until Aug. 23.
The exhibition examines the role botany, flora, and gardening play in the work of an artist. Featuring works by Lorne Beug, Donna Kriekle, Russel Yuristy, Richard Holden, Stan Day, Jefferson Little, Phyllis Godwin, George Glenn, June Jacobs, Agnes Gallus and Brenda Francis Pelkey, this exhibition presents a diverse selection of media including photography, drawing, painting, and fibre.
It examines the correlations found between gardeners and artists – attention to colour, perspective, composition and material, dedication of time, planning and patience.
