James Lahey
James Lahey is a Canadian artist living in Toronto, where he maintains his studio. He completed his BFA at York University in 1984 with studies in Art and Architecture in Italy (1982) through a joint program with York University, Toronto and University of Massachusetts Lowell. In 1986, he obtained a certificate from the O.M.A. in the preservation of Art and Artefacts. Upon graduation, Lahey negotiated career and vocation, including positions at The Art Gallery at Harbourfront, The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery, the Art Gallery of Ontario and Bruce Mau Design. Since 1998, Lahey has concentrated exclusively on his painting practice. In 2001, he was elected to the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts. Lahey has been a Member of the Board of Directors at the Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery in Toronto from 2009 through to 2012, and a past member of the Board of Directors for Dancemakers. Currently, James is a Member of the Acquisitions Committee for the Photography Drawings Department of the Art Gallery of Ontario, a past member of the Acquisitions Committee for Prints and Drawings at the Art Gallery of Ontario and a current member of the Advisory Board of PEN Canada. Lahey is represented in galleries across Canada, in Britain and the United States where his work can be found in numerous private and public collections. In 2005, the McLaren Museum installed his “Index” exhibition and published a catalog of the same name with contributions by Ihor Holubizky and Mark Kingwell. In 2007, “Index” was installed at The University of Toronto Art Center. In 2008, Lahey opened solo shows in New York and London where “your imperfect history” was published in conjunction with the exhibition by Flowers U.K. His project, Guido’s Rhombus opened at Museum London in the fall of 2009. In 2011, Eight Days opened at the Nicholas Metivier Gallery. A publication produced in collaboration with Toronto writer and poet Lynn Crosbie accompanied that exhibition. Lahey’s most recent exhibition “Made in Canada” took place in October 2017 at Galerie de Bellefeuille.

- SalixBy Robert MarchessaultLocated in Montreal, QuebecMy painting is an inquiry. I make images as a way of responding to experiences that are important to me. Experiences that help me to understand why I’m in this world often happens when I am outside in large open spaces. Painted images act as a tool. I respond to the spaces my art suggests. That response is usually non-verbal. I am interested in the experience of non-duality that “getting lost” in big spaces can sometimes produce for me. The paintings have gone through a range of artistic treatments with the recent years seeing a focus on space, light, textures, atmosphere and distance. My landscape paintings are made from memory, not from on-site drawings or photographs. I use memory as a filtering agent to remove non-essential visual elements. When a work is successful, it must have a sense of poetry. There is nothing “new...Category

- "Obliteration" Oil and Alkyd Painting on Wood Panels, Yellow, Red, OrangeBy Grace Graupe-PillardLocated in New York, NYGrace Graupe-Pillard has concentrated on portraiture since her early charcoal drawings which she exhibited at The Drawing Center, NYC in 1981. Her work, which has been exhibited at notable institutions such as MOMA PS1 and galleries including Cheim & Read Gallery (NY) and Carl Hammer Gallery (Chicago), has evolved from over the years from pastels to large-scale oil paintings and installations of people who she describes as “having not been integrated into mainstream society.” Her more recent paintings, inspired by selfies and iPhone photographs, attempt to convey the vitality and diversity of 21st century contemporary culture while capturing the ineffable moments in our lives. “The sensuality and radiant beauty of youth and ethnic diversity are depicted in my choice of subjects, as well as the ravages of time which are imprinted on our being. All stages of life are filled with humanity that both elevates and dissipates the spirit.” Her work has been written about in The NY Times, Art News, The Village Voice, The Star-Ledger, Newsday, Flash Art...Category
