Boundary States: The place between what is recognized and what is experienced
June 4 to July 2, 2005 Everyone is invited to attend an Coffeehouse Evening opening Garry Berteig’s exhibition “boundary states” on Saturday evening, June 4 at Art Gallery of Swift Current. The doors will open at 7:00 p.m. with musical entertainment by musician Keith Bartlett at 7:30 p.m. The Walk and Talk tour with artist Garry Berteig will begin promptly at 8:00 p.m.
The exhibition “boundary states” presents recent work artist Garry Berteig. Garry is an accomplished western Canadian artist originally from the Swift Current area. A professional artist for the past forty years, for the past ten years Garry Berteig also has worked as a professor and is currently head of the fine arts department at Keyano College in Fort McMurray, Alberta. Paintings by this well known artist grace the walls of many business offices, private homes, and public collections across Canada and internationally. This exhibition shows a series of watercolour and ink on paper paintings, drawn from explorations and discoveries in the inspirational boreal forests of northern Canada and Europe. This is the fifth exhibition in Art Gallery of Swift Current’s Homecoming Arts Series, celebrating Saskatchewan’s Centennial.
Musician, Keith Bartlett considers himself primarily a guitarist. He will delight those present with his diversity in the use of stringed instruments, song, and interaction with the audience. Keith’s ability to draw beautiful music from so many instruments is always surprising. He will play a wide variety of pieces on banjo, two types of guitars and the fiddle. In addition to playing, Keith sings and intersperses stories, humor, and bits of information throughout the performance.
Everyone is welcome and admission is free to the Coffeehouse Evening for “boundary states” on Saturday, June 4 at Art Gallery of Swift Current in the R.C. Dahl Centre at 411 Herbert Street East. This fun and interesting event will feature table seating, full cash bar and a delicious buffet. For more information, please call the Gallery at 778-2736 |
