Karin Bubas
Studies in Landscapes and Wardrobe by Karin Bubas (Vancouver).
Taking visual cues from Hitchcock and Antonioni films, Bubas explores the link between figure and environment. Similar to the work of Alex Prager.
Hidden Agenda
This one’s just for the Vancouverites – my good friend (and talented local illustrator) Ehren Salazar, is hosting a variety show called Hidden Agenda. Friday February 13th at The Waterfront Theatre (1412 Cartwright St. on Granville Island) – doors at 7:30pm – show at 8:00pm. There will be live music and a special encore screening of Animatron 2008 (a compilation of short animations)! Here’s a little message from Ehren not entirely related to Hidden Agenda, but not not related either:
Ben Tour
Vancouver-based (close enough) Ben Tour is killing it right now! If you are in the Toronto area, head on over to the Meta Gallery (107-37 Mill St.) – Ben’s Electric Orphans show is up from Jan 9 – Feb 15!
The Photographic Dictionary
“The Photographic Dictionary is dedicated to defining words through the literal, figurative, and personal meanings found in each photograph.” – The Photographic Dictionary.
The project was created by Netherland’s Lindley Warren. The photos here are ones that my friend Jennilee Marigomen contributed to the project. This first one is her favourite (and mine too) – it is the photo for the word, Lost. If you are a photographer, they are currently accepting submissions! Head on over there.
Siggi Odds
Designer Siggi Odds (Sigurður Oddsson) was born in Iceland but grew up right here in Vancouver! He’s also friends with the only other Siggi I know of, Siggi Eggertsson! Great stuff.
