The Solitudes of Place: Recent Drawings by Ann Kipling Opens at the Burnaby Art Gallery this Summer
(BURNABY, BC)  Solitudes of Place critically engages the drawings created by Kipling in 2009 through the lens of locality and how this concept has been integrated into the dialogue about globalisation.  The exhibit examines how the individual artist and her primary subject, the landscape, may be recognized within larger political and artistic frameworks.  The accompanying book, with guest authors Robin Laurence and Rosemarie Tovell, reflects the authors' different sensibilities and vantage points in which to consider Kipling as a draftsperson. Conceived of as both a catalogue of the exhibition and an artist's book, the publication is a vehicle for those interested in drawing and engaging with Kipling's work through the processes the artist employs and ideas put forth by its authors.

Kipling's work can be found in numerous public collections across Canada including the National Gallery of Canada, The Vancouver Art Gallery, Burnaby Art Gallery and the Kamloops Art Gallery.

The exhibition is part of DRAWN, Metro Vancouver's 3rd annual celebration of contemporary drawing that offers a series of stimulating exhibitions, free lectures and artist talks, gallery tours and exhibition openings at leading Metro Vancouver art galleries and museums this summer.  drawnfestival.ca<http://www.drawnfestival.ca>
