Michael Gibson Gallery - Contemporary Canadian Art

Current Exhibition – Cynthia Touchette

"In The Space Between", Cynthia Touchette's first solo exhibition outside of Quebec, is a celebration of heritage, memory and place. Born in the Eastern Townships of Quebec to a Haitian mother and a French-Canadian father, Touchette's paintings explore the thresholds between loss, belonging, and becoming.

New Arrival – Dorothy Knowles

An avid gardener, Knowles was committed to working directly from nature taking inspiration from both the faraway farms and river valleys and as near as her own backyard. Impressionistic and lush, "Tangled Flowers" expresses her summer garden in full bloom. It is a joyful painting, dappled with colour and light, drawing our attention to the immediacy of the moment and the painting's luxuriant surface.

The luminous new paintings that Zack has created are super saturated in light and rich in colour. Based on photographs taken in abandoned houses near his home, the new paintings show the detritus of life and combine his meticulous notes relating to each interior.
