Fans of the artist’s work will recognize not just familiar streets and harbours of Vancouver but also motifs like rainy downtown nights. But the paintings move toward a more realistic depiction of scenes than he has evoked in the past—even while relying on memory. Instead of aiming for literal accuracy, he has painted his subjects in a way that suits his vision. Admission Opening Reception: Friday, November 2 at 6 - 9pm. Artist in attendance. Sunday & Monday by appointment. Info: www.davidwilson.ca / www.kimotogallery.com
Sweat is set in the working-class town of Reading, Pennsylvania, and for a group of lifelong friends a night at the local bar is the balm against a hard day on the factory lines. When tensions rise at work and picket lines are formed, their bonds wear and the strength of their connection is tested in the struggle to stay ahead. All sides are examined in this community that is formed and dissolved amidst the changing landscape of America. Tickets from $29 at artsclub.com or the Arts Club Box Office at 604.687.1644
