Later on this week, I will be taking part in a group show in Los Angeles at the Shoshana Wayne Gallery<\/a>.\u00a0 The exhibition, titled Chain Letter<\/em>, is a summer group show curated by Christian Cummings and Doug Harvey. \u00a0Chain Letter<\/em> is an exhibition based on admiration as inclusion in the exhibition is based on invitation based on admiration.\u00a0 The curators invited artists, who in turn, each invited ten other artists that they admired, and so on, like a chain letter.\u00a0 Invitations were sent via e-mail and circulated for thirty days, with each artist installing their own work at the gallery on the day before the opening.<\/p>\n

A short blurb from the gallery website about Chain Letter<\/em>:<\/p>\n

This exhibition is rooted in the ideals of inclusion, and highlights the social nature of the art world.\u00a0 It is the hope of the curators that the response will be vast and that the artists represented will be an exponential representation of all artists that are currently working and admired by their peers.\u00a0 Chain Letter<\/em> mimics communication today; and the way in which information is passed.\u00a0 The outcome will be a testament to the power of connectivity within society at present.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The exhibition is taking place around the world in different cities including Berlin, London, New York, Paris, Johannesburg, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Boston, Seoul and Zurich.\u00a0 Los Angeles is the main exhibition space for the show.<\/p>\n

For more information on this exhibition, please visit the Chain Letter website.<\/a> To view an interactive map that shows how everyone is connected in this web of artists, please visit the Chain Letter UK website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I will be exhibiting a stack of postcards…images coming soon.<\/p>\n

I’m also very happy to announce that I have been selected as one of thirty finalists for the Kingston Art Prize, Canada’s National Portraiture award.\u00a0 I was lucky enough to be selected two years ago, and my painting traveled across Canada with the prize’s touring exhibition.<\/p>\n
