May 02 – July 1st, 2016 Opening: May 02, 5.30 - 6.30pm Informal Discussion with Artist: 6pm CWSE Hallway Gallery 2nd Floor, OISE 252 Bloor Street West (Bloor & St George) Images by Joanna Black Winnipeg artist/researcher Joanna Black explores prejudice in academia in   Sex/ism: ECHoes & ‘ReVERBS’  @  Ivory Towers .  The abundance of articles and reports about longstanding persistent sexist problems in our universities informed the content of this work. For this exhibition in particular, attention has been given to the University of Toronto (U of T). Sexism at U of T was established in the university’s founding year, 1850.

  Window Box Gallery @ Gallery 1313, 1313 Queen Street West, June 1 - Sept. 2022 Josephine Guan  is a Chinese-Canadian artist and researcher. She is interested in cultural understandings of health and disability and knowledge that stems from lived experience.

Exercising Urbanism October - December 2022

Image
Exercising Urbanism is a collaboration in urban exploration with local emerging artists and designers Ella Hough and Maya Freeman. Freeman and Hough will lead three drawing workshops in the city (at set locations in Parkdale, Cabbagetown, and Chinatown) that aim to help us re-examine the city critically, imaginatively, and playfully. The drawings that develop from the workshops will make up the installation of the Window Box Gallery. With each subsequent workshop, drawings will become layered in the window box as the experiences of the city’s secret corners and alleyways are reimagined as hubs for creative expression and informal gathering.  Participation in the workshops is free (pre-registration required) and materials will be supplied. To register, please email: exercisingurbanism@gmail.com. Artists Maya Freeman is a designer based in Toronto, Canada.
