" Graphic Radicals " at Legacy Art Gallery and Cafe

Graphic Radicals

The art of subversion comes to the Legacy! Graphic Radicals is a “themed” presentation of the work of World War 3 Illustrated, a New York artist collective, from the 1980s to the present day. The art confronts issues such as anti-war protests, squatting in New York, the tragedies of 9-11, racism, prisons and anarchism. Graphic Radicals includes dozens of works in the form of posters, graphic illustrations, paintings, banners and other media.

Homeless Awareness: an Exhibition of Art Work by People Who Have Experienced Homelessness


The Victoria Fine Art Festival Society presents it’s inaugural exhibition,


This juried exhibition features works for sale by: Vicki Bailey
(painting/printmaking), Anne Campbell (drawing), Luke Garrison
(digital collage), Jerry Hayes (painting), Paula Johnson (painting),
Robert MacDonald (painting), Russell Maier (painting), Taras Masciuch
(photography), Ian Morris (drawing/painting), and George Williams
(wood carving).

Director and Curator for the Victoria Fine Arts Festival Society, Yuri
Arajs, has a long history of producing social mission-based art
exhibitions.
“I feel strongly about VFAF’s inaugural exhibit focus on one of the
most tragic problems in Victoria – homelessness. This exhibition is a
good example of something concrete that can be done to help people
directly. The artists in the exhibit will have their work framed for
them and receive 100% of sales. Homeless persons seldom are given the
opportunity to have their opinions heard -- much less have their art
valued in mainstream society.”

January 15 – February 27, 2010
705 Johnson Street, Downtown Victoria
Hours: Wednesday – Saturday, 11am – 5pm

Opening reception with the artists January 15, 5-8pm. Free event and
open to the public.
