DAMIAN MOPPETT +
RON MOPPETT
(Every Story Has Two Sides)

Art Gallery of Alberta, Edmonton
September 17, 2016 to January 8, 2017

This new exhibition brings together the work of two renowned contemporary Canadian artists – Damian Moppett and Ron Moppett. Exploring the commonalities and intersections of their artistic practices, the exhibition examines a shared interest in mining the history of art; the artists use of strategies of assemblage and collage that are both modes of production and historical references; and how each of them interprets and represents the artist and the studio as both creative subjects and sites.

The exhibition will include a large work by each of the artists in Manning Hall and the atrium beginning in late August.

Presented by ATB, with the support of Artist Patrons Morris and Ann Dancyger; Margo Helper and Gregory Forrest; Trepanier Baer Gallery; Dell Pohlman and Laurent Raymore Pohlman
