OENO INSIDER
Upcoming Exhibition
Otto Donald Rogers: Appearance of Light
Otto Rogers
April 24 - May 26: Otto Donald Rogers
 
A solo exhibit of new works by Otto Donald Rogers is always a highly anticipated event.
 
Renowned as one of Canada's pre-eminent artists, Rogers' current pieces - in paint, mixed media and an exciting return to steel - achieve a rare beauty.
 
"He is doing the best work of his life, a magnificent summa to 53 years of painting," observes Ken Carpenter, respected art critic. "These most recent works seem not just beautiful and moving, but also wise."
 
We hope you will join us at the Opening Reception on April 26 from    2- 6 pm with opening remarks beginning at 4:30pm.
 
To accompany this exhibit, Oeno has prepared a catalogue with colour reproductions and text specially written by Ken Carpenter, Chair Emeritus of the Visual Arts Department at York University in Toronto and President of the Canadian Section of the International Association of Art Critics.

Ben Woolfitt
May 29 - June 23: Ben Woolfitt 
 
Oeno is proud to present Woolfitt's first solo exhibition in Canada in 5 years. Known as an outstanding entrepreneur and studio art teacher, Woolfitt's return to painting and works on paper continue his dramatic journey of renewal.
 
"Woolfitt's palette has shifted toward rich blues and his art is more luminous than ever... Rich glazing suffuses the whole with a vitreous gleam," notes art expert, Ken Carpenter. "I have no doubt that Ben Woolfitt is moving on from strength to strength."


The Gift Exchange: Sunday Lecture Series
 
April 19, 7:30 - 8:30pm: Edward Falkenberg
From Bauhaus to Tree House, and Beyond
 
In the last lecture of our series, Edward Falkenberg will discuss the process of his art, from his first commission 40 years ago to his latest pieces, currently on display at Oeno Gallery. Encompassing an eclectic range of work in wood and steel, including office and residential design and furniture, and sculpture for both public and private spaces, Falkenberg will explore the common threads of space, distance, scale and balance that infuse his work.
