Paradigm Shifts: Beatrice Mady and Heather Williams presents compositions rooted in the enduring power of layers: layered imagery, textures and hues. Works on view make evident the shift that occurs when different mediums converge, whether it be digital and analog or pigment and found materials. For Beatrice Mady, the shift from digital image and composite painting forms the foundation of the compositions on view in the exhibition. In her work “Someplace Else,” the presence of repetitive motifs contrasts against a shifting color palette, providing the viewer with a concerto of mark-making and color balance. As the artist notes, the “spiritual state (latent in) dualistic elements” forms a point for shifts to occur in her works on view, ranging from photography to abstract painting. For Heather Williams, the shift in duality is present in foregrounding both, “spiritual legacy and my concerns for our environment and the well-being of Black people.” In her mixed-media work, “Black Hair is Legal Now,” the artist places pigment on the canvas along with locs of her hair, offering these strands a potent position of power encircling the center of the composition. The artist creates visual movement while referencing legal frameworks, such as the Crown Act, advanced in order to work against existing systemic racism. In her compositions, Williams incorporates – in her words – a “labyrinth of texture, movement and meaning.” The harmonious balance of dualities, their presence and absence, is potent throughout works on view in Paradigm Shifts. Curated by ANTE Curatorial. The show is open by appointment for guests (antecedentprojects@gmail.com). Zoom Virtual Tour: Mon, Oct 3, 7pm (link in bio of Instagram account: @ante__curatorial).

Ronnie Jiang combine subtilement et avec dérision les récits pour dénoncer les contradictions du monde d’aujourd’hui. Portraits réalistes et personnages de cartoons issus de cette série dédiée à la réflexion sociale se côtoient et dialoguent. Lieu : Galerie Saint Simon.
Juxtapositions includes linocuts and egg tempera and watercolour paintings. The theme of the exhibition is a creative interpretation of the word juxtaposition. New art is juxtaposed with older and recent work. Paintings in different media and prints will be exhibited side by side with black and white motifs versus a coloured version; rural with cityscapes; insects with birds; bats with humans; sheds with sheds, etc. It is both academic and thoughtful, sometimes humorous. A selection of Paula's much loved older linocuts The Classics will be separately exhibited.
