 WATERLOO ONT – UpTown Gallery in Waterloo Town Square is pleased to announce its next exhibition The Spaces In Between to open Friday January 20, 2012.

The exhibition features artwork by five Waterloo Region and area artists as they explore how things are defined by the space between them. How does the size of this, relate to the size of that? How does the poverty of one home relate to the economic success of a country?

Opening Reception is Friday January 27 at 6:30 to 8:30 pm, with artists in attendance.
Exhibition continues until Sunday March 11, 2012.

Exhibition: Ann Roberts: With Both Fear and Intrepid Enthusiasm

Dates: 
January 29, 2012 - 1:00pm - April 8, 2012 - 5:00pm

The Clay & Glass presents a 50-year retrospective by Waterloo Region ceramic artist and sculptor, Ann Roberts. The exhibition will survey various stages of the artist’s career beginning from her early functional work to her highly engaging sculptures influenced by mythology and feminine form. The exhibition will demonstrate her tremendous versatility, technical brilliance, and creative inventiveness, which make her one of the most exciting artists still working today.

Complementing Ann Roberts’ 50-year retrospective exhibition as a ceramist and sculptor, The Art of Mentoring: A Legacy celebrates the artist’s legacy as a teacher and mentor through the works of Patrick Cull, Michelle Mendlowitz, Mary Catherine Newcomb, and Catherine Paleczny.

Bodacious Bucolic Extracts: February Rotunda Gallery exhibit by Amy Ferrari

Dates: 
February 1, 2012 - 12:00pm - February 29, 2012 - 12:00pm

Warm up at the Rotunda Gallery in February (ground floor, Kitchener city hall) On exhibition: Bodacious Bucolic Extracts by Amy Ferrari Exhibit Opening: Thursday, February 9, 6:30–8:30pm In this exhibit, Amy Ferrari celebrates the powerfully serene beauty found in landscapes and regional farmscapes. Contemporary life can seem so hectic that the energizing calm of the open countryside often goes under-appreciated or forgotten, says Ferrari. “I am always bombarded by tons of visual interest. It's just that what I see as fascinating doesn't even register with most people,” she says. “I would like my work to encourage everyone to slow down and take another look, to see through a lens of imagination, fun and mystery, and to revel in all the wonderful details.” Ferrari uses colour to magnify life on canvas.
