WILL MUNRO
(AND AN ARMY OF LOVERS)
In work that drew heavily from punk, DIY aesthetics, queer history, textile and craft design, Will Munro treated culture itself as a medium.
This doc traces Munro’s art career, from his earliest days at OCAD to his last show, The. Cosmic Leather Daddy, before his passing of brain cancer at the age of 35.
Munro’s impact on Toronto’s art and queer communities continues to resonate well beyond his lifetime.
THE MAKING OF THE PLUMB
The plumb is a collective of artists, writers, and curators who, at the height of the COVID pandemic, met in Toronto parks to drink beer and talk candidly about the lack of supporting infrastructure in the city’s visual arts scene. Out of those conversations, the plumb gallery was born in September 2020.
The plumb describes its ethos as “responsive, quick-moving, and non-bureaucratic, operating with a commitment to anti-racism, inclusivity, and consensus-based collaboration.”
Gallery Project
Upcoming: May 20 – May 31 SHINE ON – Orest Tataryn, curated by Lois Andison
Reception: Saturday, May 23rd, 2 – 6 pm
A colourist at heart, Orest’s signature works are colour studies that combine mathematics with pattern, abstraction, and the precise placement, proportions, and relationships of chroma. His process often involves cutting sections of glass tube, then fusing the different sections, then repeating this technique with minor variations over a number of tubes to create a colour field.
