Ian Wallace's In The Studio, a mixed media exhibition of studio-themed works from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, up right now at Emily Carr's Charles H. Scott gallery. A terrific exhibition, and one I've already been back to see several times. Highlights: a blurry black and white photograph of a rickety chair with the artist's briefcase plunked down on it, a mock-up? recreation? of the artist's seminal Magazine Piece visible behind it; the limited edition print of the artist's desk, a Mallarme poem open upon it (purchased!); and the tiny backlit color transparency of a much younger Wallace at work, a work forever ruined for me by Tim Lee and Clint Burnham's cheeky, knowing recreation of the same shot for a Western Front poster project a year or two ago.

No review of the Wallace show at Terminal City yet, but that might be fixed by next week. Posted by Hello
