PRINTMAKING IN THE PARK Saturday, July 16, 2022, 1 to 3pm (Rain or shine)

Trolley Station Picnic Pavilion, Britannia Park

Sponsored by Ottawa-Gatineau Printmakers Connective and Ottawa Makerspace Hack613

Free but pre-registration is requested.

Printmaking in the Park is about making the art of hand-pulled printmaking more accessible to printmakers and the broader public. The labour-intensive cutting of relief plates of wood and linoleum can be challenging for many printmakers. A CNC machine can be used to transfer the artist’s vision to a plate that can still be hand pulled. Under cover of the Trolley Station Picnic Pavilion located at Britannia Beach, Darcy White and Doug Commons of Hack613 will demonstrate how the CNC machine can be used to cut relief plates for making hand-pulled prints. Members of the Ottawa-Gatineau Printmakers Connective will demonstrate and discuss various aspects of hand-pulled printmaking.

The Trolley Station Picnic Pavilion is booked from 12-5 PM. It is a large space that can accommodate 50 or more people. Please feel free to invite friends and family. Come early or stay later and make it a picnic! Bring your own picnic lunch and beverages or pick up lunch at the nearby Baja Burger Shack at Britannia Beach. Lots of free parking is available and Britannia Park is served by the 51 Britannia bus line. You can bring lawn chairs and lawn games if you like.

We will follow any applicable federal, provincial and municipal COVID guidelines in effect at the time of the event. Please do not come if you are sick or test positive and wear a mask if you are in close proximity to others.

We hope to see you there!

Painterly Printmaking: Monotypes and Monoprints / L’estampe Picturale :  monotypes et monogravures

  By

THE OTTAWA-GATINEAU PRINTMAKERS CONNECTIVE PRESENTS THE EXHIBITION ‘PAINTERLY PRINTMAKING: Monotypes and Monoprints‘

The summer exhibition at the Connective Gallery showcases the work of eleven OGPC artists who explore forms of monotypes and monoprints.  Often referred to as painterly printmaking, these techniques are among the simplest of printmaking methods. Yet the variety of approaches used  ̶  splashes of colour, spontaneous gestures or painstaking detail, additions of collage or found materials, use of stencils or organic materials – results in works that are visually complex and emotionally expressive.

 Where: The Connective Gallery at The Nepean Creative Arts Centre, 35 Stafford Rd, Ottawa

Date: June 23 – October 20, 2022

Artists:  Stephanie Amos, Mary Baranowski-Lowden, Murray Dineen, Lea Hamilton, Denise Lachance, AK Leo, Rod Restivo, Madeleine Rousseau, Beth Shepherd, Moira Toomey, Jennifer Waterman.

Guest Curator : Beth Shepherd

 

LE COLLECTIF D’ARTISTES-GRAVEURS D’OTTAWA-GATINEAU PRÉSENTE L’EXPOSITION  ‘L’ESTAMPE PICTURALE :  Monotypes et monogravures’  

L’exposition d’été à la Galerie Connective présente les œuvres de onze artistes de l’OGPC qui explorent les monotypes et les monogravures.  Souvent qualifiées d’estampes picturales, ces techniques sont parmi les plus simples des méthodes d’impression. Pourtant, la variété des approches utilisées, telles que les éclaboussures de couleurs, les gestes spontanés ou les détails minutieux, l’ajout de matériaux collés ou trouvés, et l’utilisation de pochoirs ou de matériaux organiques, donne lieu à des œuvres visuellement complexes et expressives d’émotion.

Où: Nouvelle exposition à la Galerie Connective, Centre des arts créatif de Nepean; 35, rue Stafford, Ottawa

 Dates: du 23 juin  au 20 oct. 2022

Artistes:  Stephanie Amos, Mary Baranowski-Lowden, Murray Dineen, Lea Hamilton, Denise Lachance, AK Leo, Rod Restivo, Madeleine Rousseau, Beth Shepherd, Moira Toomey, Jennifer Waterman.
