PAST: Artist’s Choice 2023
Alberta Society of Artists for the 2023 rendition of “Artist’s Choice,” showing a broad selection of visual artworks submitted by our current Juried and Life Members. This exhibition includes acrylic paintings, sculptural paper art, gouache, two and three-dimensional fibre art, photography, oil paintings, mixed media, and so much more.
PAST: Urban Suprises
The theme “Urban Surprises”, leaves large open spaces for collective and individual interpretation. Working together, the vision becomes much larger and more varied than what one might suppose in the title. Limiting materials to a substrate of paper and then adding sculpture to the mix moves creativity in unforeseen directions.
PAST: Prairie Sketches
A solo fine exhibition by Debra Hovestad, ASA, at the Walterdale Theatre in Edmonton, Alberta.
This body of work depicts unique prairie and skyscapes and brings attention to the world outside, a concept which seems to be lost at times in this busy chaotic world; a place to be in and appreciate, rather than a place to consume.

PAST: Beyond Wabi Sabi
A solo exhibition featuring the work of Alberta artist Mary Whale, ASA, at the Walterdale Theatre, Edmonton Alberta.
“The term Wabi Sabi connotes such qualities as impermanence, humility, asymmetry and imperfection in things. The way we, as people, age is not unlike that of a revered piece of pottery that has survived the ravages of use; the cracks to be filled with gold. The ‘beauty of use’ can be witnessed in old people; the patina, the textures, and the incredible lines.”
L’automatisme with a cultural identity
Michael Kiré’s “L’automatisme with a cultural identity” will be on display at the Central Library in Calgary this July. Kiré experiments with linguistic elements out of their usual context to prompt questions about appreciation and expression.

Sp(eat)chless
A solo exhibition featuring the work of Kimberly Jones, at the Alberta Society of Artists gallery in Calgary.
“SpEATchless”is a growing body of mixed media work that combines diorama and miniature artistry with food themes to create surreal scenes and vignettes meant to provoke introspection in the viewer about scale and size as well as our relationship with food and waste in modern North American culture.”
