Upcoming artist talks: Andrew Forster & Lindsey Bond
Andrew Forster has been in our Main Space all week, building…something. Come to his opening on Friday, starting with an artist talk at 7!
Our current shows come down on the weekend—but we’ve still got Yusuke Shibata’s workshop on Saturday afternoon, starting at 1:00, to look forward to.
Yusuke Shibata is getting ready for his workshop on May 12th by eating a lot of pizza and making plans—here’s what he sent us this week:
What have we been surrounded by?
Street skateboarding tricks indicate it appropriately. The street skateboarders focus on the unrealistic scenes and the back scenes we receive blindly because they are taken for granted. It is the recovery of the tactile reality; you can feel and get the blind scenes just only by attacking the structures existing as materials you see but actually don’t realize.
In this workshop featuring the skateboarders’ approach to their cities, you can visualize the area by performing tricks with the pizza boxes to the blindly accepted and unconscious scenes.
I will have a lecture first and then, go out the street on a video shoot in the workshop. If there are a lot of participants join, I’ll divide them into groups so I would like you to bring your video camera if you have. Also, I strongly recommend putting on comfortable clothes(skateboards clothing is welcome!).
Let’s do pizza box great tricks in downtown Edmonton!
Watch Yusuke’s video that we posted earlier to get a little bit more of an idea—we’re definitely looking forward to this one!

“Skater” is one of Yusuke Shibata’s current works-in-progress.
Join Yusuke on May 12—the closing day of his ProjEx Room show—for a workshop at 1:00 to participate in the development of this project. (Here’s the Facebook event)
The workshop will begin with an introduction and presentation at the gallery, and then we’ll head out onto the streets of downtown Edmonton to scout locations, as Yusuke will demonstrate and discuss his techniques for producing performative video.
