This is a poster advertising Jude Palace’s digital drawing show at AANM Gallery102-329 Cumberland Avenue, opening October 6 from 6-9pm, and available online at aanm.ca/online-exhibitions. These details are displayed in lines of plain, bright high-contrast text, sandwiched between slices sampled from Palace’s work, along with the logos of the funder, Canada Council for the Arts, and AANM, as well as the title of the show, “I Do Not Make Art for Anyone; I Make Art for You.” Palace’s work is busy, exuberant, tragic, and appears as a chaotic jumble of bright colours, creating an intriguing narrative. Visible in the top image detail is a young, blonde boy with large blue eyes, calmly meeting our gaze, as the hands of someone in a white sweater studded with red hearts grasps his chin and hair as if preparing to wrench his head violently. The background is bright red with abstract lines snaking among orange and yellow star/explosions. In the image below that, we see a blue tiger sitting regally on a pink shabby sofa. A snake patterned with red, orange, and black is seen entering through a window and baring its fangs towards the tiger, who is sporting an award ribbon on his furry chest. The bottom image depicts a young Black boy in a yellow cap and green jacket, turning to meet our eye over his shoulder. On his collar in orange font is the word ‘lonely,’ in which the ‘o’ is denoted by a daisy. The boy is touching a wall calendar set to November, with a hand displaying bloody knuckles and multiple band-aids.

This is a poster advertising the visual art show opening of sculptor Sacha Kopelow. Large ‘neon’ pink letters radiating a pink glow declare the show’s name: ‘THESE ARE MY DISASTERS.’ The text is overtop an image of a crescent moon. A cast glass couple sits in the curve of the moon. The woman is fat, wearing a figure-hugging dress, and she has a prosthetic leg. She holds her hand up to her mouth in anguish, her head thrown back to look up at the heavens. The man is thin. His sleeves are rolled up to the elbow. He holds one hand behind the woman’s back, the other above his lap. The entire scene is awash in pink rays, but the two figures remain a shadowy cool white-blue. At the bottom of the poster is the information: ‘OPENING Feb 3, 6-9PM, 102-329 Cumberland Ave and aanm.ca/online-exhibitions.’ Along the poster’s edge are the small logos of Arts AccessAbility Network Manitoba and Canada Council for the Arts.

This is a poster advertising the show of drawing/painting artist lita b. In the center of the poster are the show details, written in lilac font on a peach background: “body horror vignettes” lita b. opening June 3, 2022. 102-329 cumberland ave. Winnipeg, and aanm.ca/online-exhibitions/.” Below this text are the logos for Arts AccessAbility Network Manitoba and Canada Council for the Arts. The top half of the poster is occupied by a portion of one of lita b.’s paintings: the background is a pale peach, rose, and yellow sky, with chubby white clouds floating serenely. Contrasting with the serenity of the background is a figure, front and centre. The figure appears to be a doll-puppet, with light blue ‘flesh’ and visible sewing seams. The only facial features on the bald head are two eyes; a tear rolls down from each. From a defect in the skull, a family of spiders emerges and descends to the shoulder. The figure is wearing a plain teal corset and orange skirt. Ribbons from the top of the image are attached at the neck and wrists. In the bottom of the poster is a portion of another of their paintings: A yellow figure holds the small pink lifeless body of a baby faun, with three bloody arrows emerging from its torso.

This is a poster advertising a show of artwork by kelly haydon. In plain black text in the top left corner is the show’s title: WE ARE NOT SEPARATE. Below, smaller lettering reads: “opens May 6, 2022, 102-329 Cumberland Ave, Winnipeg, and aanm.ca/online-exhibitions”. The poster’s aesthetic consists of layered slices from kelly haydon’s various prints. In the top image, the head and shoulders of a snowy owl is visible, white and black against a rose-coloured background. Directly below is a slim slice of another print consisting of some nonsensical typewritten text, and a short zipper. The third image ‘layer’ is the largest; against a dusty grey backdrop, a delicate white tree grows upwards from the stomach of a white figure prone on the ground. kelly haydon’s name in large black text is positioned against the tree trunk. The figure appears to be lying on the next image slice, a black and white brick office building against an azure sky. The final, bottom image, is a print of a black and white brick building against a yellow background, with a herd of black bison silhouettes ambling by in the foreground. The logos of Arts AccessAbility Network Manitoba and Canada Council for the Arts are in the bottom corner.
