Summer at Latitude 53 Summertime is approaching, and we’re really excited about the programming we’ll be bringing. We’ve got a new newsletter at the printers this week that we’ll be sending out to all of our members, and of course we’ll be updating the website and this blog with info. In fact, there’s so much that we actually couldn’t fit it all into the newsletter. Look for: The National Portrait Gallery June 11–July 17 In response to the cancellation of the “official” National Portrait Gallery, a group of Edmonton artists has put together this collection of exciting contemporary portraiture from across the country. This big show will spill into all three of our gallery spaces. (Image: Jonathan Kaiser) Rooftop Patio Series, Thursdays June–August Our ever-popular rooftop patio returns with a new roster of special guest hosts and one-off cocktails. Summer Members’ Series We’ve selected four Latitude 53 Members to show their stuff in the Community Gallery for one-week installments, giving us even more to celebrate on the rooftop patio. Not Another Fucking Landscape & Gore, Quebec In August, we’ve got two shows of contemporary landscape photography. Gore, Quebec comes to us from Montreal artist Jonas St. Michael, and Not Another Fucking Landscape includes work by Edmonton’s own Zachary Ayotte, Ted Kerr, Amie Rangel and Marshall Watson, curated by Anthony Easton. We’ll have more information and previews of these in the next few weeks—stay tuned. It’s going to be an exciting summer!
