Phil Delisle
An Exhibition of Paintings
May 8–June 13, 2009
Two-person exhibition with Adam Matak.
Philip Delisle explores the role of the artist, activities that he engages in as an artist and his daily process of art making. His series of conceptual paintings utilize and borrow from the highly graphic art style and design of instructional manuals.
There are similarities that run through both Delisle and Matak’s aesthetic and cultural positioning of the artist and as educators of contemporary art and customs.
This two-person painting exhibition will provide opportunities for the public to experience new developments in contemporary Canadian painting as well as an “inside view” of contemporary art and cultural practices.
