Canadian Second Cup Franchise—Florence Biennale Artwork Supporter
Good news! The Second Cup at Yonge and St.Clair is displaying my artwork from tonight on, in support of the Florence Biennale exhibit. This particular franchise is standing up for Canada by providing neighborhood exposure for a local artist representing her country—giving publicity to issues such an endeavor has come to reveal (as touched on in this blog’s March 07 entry).
Canada can’t be seen on the world stage as a nation that’s preoccupied with playtime. Her visual artists and their art events need as much reognition and endorsement as her athletes and their sports events. Culture and intellect count, as do the individuals who work hard to show this.
The painting included in this blog entry (and already hanging at Second Cup) is "Pansies…Again," 24in x 36in, oil on canvas.
p.s. Please remember to click on the images to see them more clearly. Also, please note, the actual artwork is crisper and more vibrant than a photo of it might suggest.
