VISUAL ART SHOW AND RECEPTION CALENDAR

Art exhibitions in the Hall change on a regular basis. In addition to providing all of the artwork on display, members of the Visual Arts section curate and hang the shows. Monthly Saturday afternoon receptions are open to the public. Viewing outside of the reception time must be arranged in advance with the artist or the office (416-922-3618) and is subject to Hall and staff availability. With the exception of the Annual Life Drawing Show, group and solo exhibitions only accept works from current Heliconian members.

    Dream Selfie - Wonder Water Image #7 - Barbara Muir 

    The Art of Celebration

    This solo show by Barbara Muir features a collection of paintings by this prolific artist. According to her artist statement: “All of these works focus on the visual happiness of my life. My work expresses the joy I feel looking at the world. Whether I’m creating portraits, landscapes, or still life images; I want to share the beauty I see, and make people happy.”

    “Highlights of my artistic career? Drawing Oprah live via Skype on the Oprah Winfrey show, “Skype Around the World”, exhibiting my work three times in the Louvre in Paris, showing my work ten times in New York City, and being part of the Florence Biennale in Italy twice.” 

    “Through international art shows, my blog, Instagram, and Facebook, I’ve become part of a dynamically creative, international art community. That’s made this artistic journey a fantastic experience.”
    “This exhibition celebrates my wonderful life as an artist.  I hope you enjoy it. I’d love to see you at one of my openings.”

    The show runs from April 3 to April 30
