Please join us for the opening reception of Not Photographs.The
exhibition features new works by two Vancouver based artists who
use photographs as canvases on which new images are built.
Moppett utilizes an array of computer generated drawing tools to
elaborate and adulterate existing photographs, while Pinheiro
physically paints on small photographs, then scans and enlarges
the subsequent images to larger size. Both artists' techniques
arise out of histories of collage and montage, however, the
photographs in their work hover at an uneasy interstice between
matrix and image, and at a point where form and content are
peculiarly fluid. The results may be called paintings or
photographs. They are both and not.
Damian Moppett is a Vancouver based artist. He has exhibited
internationally with recent solo shows at Catriona Jeffries
Gallery, Vancouver in 2010 and the Temple Gallery, Tyler School
of Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Yvon Lambert Gallery,
both in 2007. His work will be the subject of an upcoming solo
exhibition at the Rennie Collection at Wing Sang, Vancouver.
Moppett graduated with an MFA from Concordia University,
Montreal, Quebec in 1995. He is represented by Catriona Jeffries
Gallery, Vancouver.
Andrea Pinheiro is an artist and curator. She works in print,
mixed media, and installation. She has exhibited across Canada
and internationally, most recently with Or Gallery in Berlin.
She began her studies at White Mountain Academy of the Arts in
Elliot Lake, Ontario, received her MFA from the University of
Alberta and has completed a residency at the Banff Centre for
the Arts. For the past three years she has worked as the Program
Manager for Malaspina Printmakers and will be beginning a
position this summer as an Assistant Professor at Algoma
University in Ontario.
This exhibition is curated by Reid Shier and organized by
Presentation House Gallery.
