James K-M is a Vancouver-based painter who has, since 1983, created a vast series of hard-edge, optically charged works. These paintings reference primordial languages, the linkages between aural and visual phenomena, as well Op Art — a key historical avant-garde movement. The question of how the social is contained within abstraction has been raised in many arenas over the twenty-five years since the first of these paintings were made. This exhibition addresses that societal role, while querying the rationales that continue to exist for new work in hard-edge abstraction. Opening Friday September 5, 8 to 9pm Please join us for the exhibition opening at the Teck Gallery, SFU Vancouver Campus. The artist will be in attendance. Opening remarks at 8:30pm. Artist talk Monday September 15, 7pm The artist will present a talk titled "Is There Anything Old Here?" Room 1600, SFU Vancouver Campus Publication This exhibition is accompanied by a 24-page catalogue with essays by Eric McLuhan and Bill Jeffries. Curated by Bill Jeffries.
