Photographer Nigel Midwinter, in the exhibition Cryoscapes, explores the tension between fragility and force within Alberta’s winter landscapes. Shot on the frozen surface of Abraham Lake, these black-and-white photographs transform cracked ice, pressure ridges, and trapped methane bubbles into abstract forms.

In Process is an ever changing group exhibit featuring six Calgary abstract artists exploring ideas of change, transition, and the creative process. Working in various mediums and styles, these artists use abstraction to express emotion, memory, and transformation through mark-making, texture, and experimentation. The show runs from  January 6 -31 with the artists Claudia Lorenz, Susan Hull, Dixie Baum, Ghislaine Cleiren, Anne-Marie Gunst, and Barbara Straka. Artist reception Friday January 9  from 6:30 pm to 9:00pm.

J. P. started touring when he was just sixteen, and he’s still at it. We are thrilled to have him back in Edmonton, after appearances at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival and several folk clubs where he sells out houses! He has worked as a session musician, been on the festival circuit, played at the Grand Ole Opry, and been a sideman for musicians such as Waylon Jennings, Marty Stuart, Earl Scruggs, Bill Monroe, Stompin' Tom Connors, and others.
