SUMMARY:The Mountie in The Family
DESCRIPTION:About the Exhibition \nMy maternal grandfather was a Mountie. This photo of him on horseback\, dressed in his formal Canadian Mounted Police uniform\, represents such an iconic symbol for Canada. Having passed away in 1995 he would have been 106 years old this year\, as Canada turns 150. This artwork is an investigation into my own identity\, within Canadian culture\, and how my personal view on heritage\, lineage\, and nostalgia have played a part in the formation of this identity. \nArtist Bio: Kenzie Housego has always been drawn to found objects and imagery with a sense of history. Through her art\, she seeks to investigate societal narratives of a romanticized past as well as the narrative of objects. She often highlights contemporary modes of gender roles and beauty by reflecting on the symbolic or iconized within society. Housego holds a BFA in Print Media from the Alberta College of Art and Design and resides in Calgary Alberta.  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Print(ed) Word
DESCRIPTION:About Print(ed) Word\nIn 2017\, A/P and Loft 112\, an artistic hub for writers and creatives to connect\, received funding support from Canada Council for the Arts to initiate Print(ed) Word – an interdisciplinary project that explored book-inspired relationships including art from text\, artist with writer\, and art book with reader/viewer. ​ \nThe result was a collaboration between 12 printmakers and 12 writers\, each paired to create a collaborative handmade artist book inspired from an existing text. The public support\, dissemination\, and celebration of this collaborative project continues. \nThe full collection of Print(ed) Word artist books were permanently installed in Calgary’s landmark Central Library in November 2018\, which was followed by a series of public artists talks throughout 2019 and the development of a mini-documentary series that was publicly released in 2020.  Click on each of the artist books listed below to view each mini-documentary.  \nArtist/Writer pairs and their collaborations\n\nDeep Cold on 11A by Aritha van Herk (writer) and Eveline Kolijn (artist)\nWhen a Warm Wind Blows off the Mountains by Susan Calder (writer) and Sylvia Arthur (artist)\nMy Mother Closing the Mouth of the War by Richard Harrison (writer) and Barbara Sutherland (artist)\nHow to Build a Street Girl by Lee Kvern (writer) and Carole Bondaroff (artist)\nThe Hunters by Jani Krulc (writer) and Ryan Statz (artist)\nHymenoptera by Doug Neilson (writer) and Heather Huston (artist)\nRouleauville by Rona Altrows (writer) and Carolyn Qualle (artist)\nISOBARS by Weyman Chan (writer) and Kate Baillies (artist)\nSwimming with Sharks by Elena Schacherl (writer) and Heather Urness (artist)\nSaturday Afternoon at the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede\, 1977 by Barb Howard (writer) and Sally Reesman (writer)\nThe Night Will Be Long But Beautiful: The Life and Death of Jeff Lakes by Erin Vance (writer) and Tim van Wijk (artist)\nMezzo Milimetro by Caitlynn Cummings (writer) and Wendy Tokaryk (artist)\n\n  \nAcknowledgements\nThe creation of this project was made possible through the generous support of the Canada Council for the Arts\, the partnership between A/P and Loft 112\, with special thanks to Carrie Phillips-Kieser and Lisa Murphy Lamb and 24 participating artists and writers. \nThe permanent exhibition\, 2019 Salon Series\, and Print(ed) Word Documentary were made possible through the generous support of the J K L MacLachlan Family Foundation together with the Calgary Public Library Foundation and the Calgary Public Library.

SUMMARY:No Place Like Homo
DESCRIPTION:No Place Like Homo brings together screen printed ceramic tile and prints on paper to illustrate a non-linear experience of masculine pregnancy and queer home life. Taking root at the intersection of reproductive justice and queer liberation\, No Place Like Homo draws on themes of choice\, loss\, intention\, and autonomy\, and questions what it means to “conceive of” in the context of conception itself. The exhibition explores contrasting desires for visibility and for safety\, offering a view that is both zoomed in and zoomed out\, tender\, lighthearted\, resolute\, and joyfully mundane. \nK Sarrantonio blends traditional and experimental screenprinting techniques to represent queer domesticity and genderqueer experience. Born in the Hudson Valley in Upstate New York\, K lives and works in Queens\, NY. They have attended residencies at McColl Center\, Women’s Studio Workshop\, Vermont Studio Center\, Crosstown Arts\, Signal Fire Arts\, and Kimmel Harding Nelson Center. They received an MFA from Rhode Island School of Design and a BA from Hampshire College.  \n  \nVisitor Information:\nNew to the A/P space? Welcome! \nHere’s a helpful guide to visiting the A/P Gallery\, Studio\, and Events \nHours and Location: \nA/P Main Gallery Hours: Wednesday from 10am – 5pm; Thursday – Saturday from 10am – 5pm (closed Sunday\, Monday\, and Tuesday) Accessibility: \nAccessibility:  \nA/P is located near the 39th Ave. C-Train Station and has free parking stalls located in front with an access ramp at the north end of the building.  \nWe do our best to accommodate the needs of our visitors whenever possible. \n\nThe A/P facility is mostly mobility friendly\, however our washout sink area and single stall gender neutral washroom are not wheelchair accessible.  \nWe welcome your questions and are committed to working with our members and guests to have a great visit when you are here!  \nInclusivity and code of conduct: \nA/P’s cultivates an inclusive and collaborative environment to learn about printmaking\, to create printed works\, and to pursue exciting artistic opportunities. \nA/P operates by a code of conduct with an expectation of promoting dignity and respect to all\, and we prioritize individual and community safety.  Any form discriminatory behaviour\, intimidation\, bullying\, harassment or victimization is not tolerated.
