Please join me from 6:00 - 9:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 17th to preview the exhibition Incidentally: portraits of the famous, infamous and unknown by Toronto-based artist WILLIAM C.G. HODGE.
This exhibition of beaded portraits has grown out of HODGE’s interest in the alternative use of glass beads. He was fascinated by the possibility of using colour value and pattern with the glass, in a process typically used with paint. He started by making a list of thirty persons of interest; a diverse list of living, and past personalities. When he looked at that list he found it interesting that a vast majority of the people had lived alternate lives - gay, lesbian, transgendered, etc. and that became the impetus for the ten chosen portraits (e.g. Virginia Woolf, Quentin Crisp, Gertrude Stein). This exhibition is timed for the Toronto Pride festivities.
All the best,
David
