This is a non-juried members' show being presented in partnership with the Roundhouse.

Exhibition Dates: Wednesday, September 8th through Monday, September 20th, 2010

Roundhouse Community Arts & Recreation Centre, Exhibition Hall
181 Roundhouse Mews, Vancouver (corner of Davie Street and Pacific Boulevard)


Theme: Cross-Pollination

With a deft brush movement, flower growers cross-pollinate plants to cultivate hybrids with new forms and colours that delight gardeners. Artists take equal delight in that spark of discovery that captures an insight from work by another artist or in another medium. Whether exploring a new glass-working technique, meshing glass with another material, or translating a traditional technique into glass, we know that our members are inspired by the work of other artists to extend the range of what glass can express.

The intent of this non-juried show is always about being inclusive and community oriented. How does a community of vibrant and diverse artists interact? This is one of the questions posed with this year's exhibition. Not only is it about the work on display, it is about how work has, is, and can be created. This is why there is a focus on collaboration and cross-pollination. A family tree/history wall will inform viewers of other ways members work and "cross-pollinate". Members are encouraged to exhibit work that demonstrates where cross-pollination has led them or reaches for new directions in expression or collaboration. This collaboration can take the form of pieces made by a partnership between two or more different artists, or pieces made by teams.
