We’ve reached the end… or have we?
Wow! The past 5 weeks has just been a whirlwind of excitement!
We have:
Everything has worked out wonderfully and, in about a month, we'll have a ton of photos, and maybe even some video documentation to share.
Thanks are owed to…
The artists: Sharon Alward, Daniel Barrow, Peter Courtemanche & Lori Weidenhammer, Richard Dyck, Jeanne Randolph, Steven Loft, and Victoria Prince.
The curators: Sigrid Dahle and Grant Guy.
Our presentation partners: aceartinc., ADHERE+DENY, The Duke of Kent Legion, PLATFORM, Plug in ICA, the Rachel Browne Theatre (formerly Winnipeg’s Contemporary Dancers Studio), and the Winnipeg Film Group.
Our technicians: Ian August, Daniel Ellingsen, Rick Fisher, Mike Germaine, and Ken Gregory.
Our hospitality sponsor: The Line Up
And most importantly, thank you to our generous funders: The Winnipeg Arts Council through the New Creations Fund, the Canada Council for the Arts, the Manitoba Arts Council, the Winnipeg Foundation, On Screen Manitoba, and the W.H. & S.E. Loewen Foundation.
Thank you!
On that note, we want to let you know that it’s not over yet!
Through a very generous contribution of the Manitoba Arts Council, beginning in the fall, we will host a series of four artist talks that will give a history of media arts on the prairies in a setting that will, most importantly help to forge new connections between Video Pool’s senior members and our growing generation of new practitioners. Stay tuned for more information!
Coming up next… Robert Hengeveld’s media installation, Staging the Gap. More info coming soon!
We have:
- Successfully launched six new commissions
- Witnessed four performances (one of which is ongoing and will continue until May 23)
- Enjoyed three receptions
- Welcomed a TON of visitors, some of whom experienced Video Pool programming for the very first time.
