David
Becker exhibition of photographic art at Blackburn Hamlet Library
Blackburn
Hamlet Library in conjunction with Arteast is proud to present an
exhibition of photographs by David Becker. This solo show is titled
“Altered Perceptions” and runs from Jan 30th to April 1st,
2016.
These
photos present subjects abstracted to remove the original context and
meaning, challenging the viewer to re-examine perceptions of reality
and look at the world through fresh eyes. A self-taught artist, David
is also an urban designer, which influences his subject matter.
This
is a unique opportunity for the public to enjoy, encourage and
support artists in their local community as well as the Blackburn
Hamlet Library.
Location:
Blackburn Hamlet branch of the Ottawa Public Library, 199 Glenpark,
Ottawa K1B 5B8
Hours:
Monday to Thursday: 10 - 8:30, Friday: 1:00 - 6:00, Saturday: 10:00-
5:00, Sunday: closed.

Communiqué
Arteast's
hard-copy, quarterly newsletter—Communiqué—is popular with our
members, but did you know that it is also available on our Web site
at http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php? A notification when a new
issue is released is communicated via the weekly Arteast Digest.
Posting of the Web version may be viewed in full dazzling colour, at
least two weeks before the print version (black and white) is
delivered by Canada Post. With rising postal costs, some members
have requested that they be removed from the mailing list for the
printed copy. Other advantages of going with the online Communiqué
are:
-
reduces printing and envelope costs;
-
makes Arteast more "green";
-
no more hunting for misplaced issues (Arteast's Web site has the
current and all back issues).
Printed
copies will be available at our monthly Grow With Art meetings and
the Promenade Arteast gallery at the Shenkman Arts Centre. If you
prefer to read the newsletter online, please e-mail us at
editor@arteastottawa.com to have your name removed from the
newsletter mailing list.
La
copie imprimée du trimestriel d’Arteast – Communiqué – est
populaire auprès de ses membres, mais saviez-vous qu’il est aussi
disponible sur le site Web http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php
? Lors de sa publication, une notice paraît dans l’hebdomadaire
Arteast Digest. Sur le Web il peut être lu et vu en couleurs deux
semaines avant la version imprimée ( noir et blanc) postée par
Poste Canada. Compte tenu du coût postal croissant plusieurs membres
ont enlevé leur nom pour l’envoi postal - vers le Web. Il y a
d’ailleurs d’autres avantages du Communiqué en ligne tels que :
-
réduire les coûts de l’imprimé et de l’enveloppe;
-
Arteast plus ‘vert’;
-
ne plus être à la recherche du numéro manquant (le Web d’Arteast
conserve le numéro courant et les anciens numéros).
Des
copies imprimées seront disponibles à la réunion mensuelle L’Art
en herbe et à la galerie Promenade Arteast au Centre Shenkman. Si
vous préférez lire le Communiqué en ligne, s.v.p. contactez :
editor@arteastottawa.com
afin d’enlever votre nom de la liste d’envoi.

Members Announcements
Arteast
members Janis Fulton
and Kerstin Peters
together with their friend Hélène
Martin are showing a wonderful variety of their landscape paintings,
mostly painted on site in the greater Ottawa area in their exhibition
"Three Friends, Three Times the Passion" at Tyros
Shawarma Lebanese Restaurant, 5929 Jeanne d'Arc Boulevard South,
Orléans, ON K1C 6V8.
What started out as a group of painting buddies, has evolved into a true friendship. The three friends have painted together for about 10 years. They enjoy painting outside while breathing in the fresh air, listening to the sounds of nature, and spending time with like-minded artists. They are inspired to capture the Canadian landscape and climate in its diversity. While they certainly influence each other, they all have developed their own style.
The exhibition runs until March 4, 2016.
