PLEASE read the comment section below for Friday night details... You do NOT want to miss this one! This will be one of Top 3 gallery openings in Toronto in 2017!  If you are coming out for the first time, or wish to meet some other members, we always do a meet/greet before the opening..stay tuned for details as date approaches. A big event for us always...200+ members...including 30+ who attend our private after-party at Amsterdam Brewhouse. The Power Plant presents a solo exhibition by Ydessa Hendeles. Ydessa is a true "exhibition maker".  She had her own gallery in Toronto for many years...then created her own "14,000 sq ft. Museum/Foundation' on King West to show her personal 1,200 piece art collection.  When this closed in 2012, I believe about $15 million in art was donated to AGO.  She was born in Germany, and her parents were Auschwitz survivors...which I really believe is an important part of her "art" story.  She's helped establish the international careers of such people at Jeff Wall, Rodney Graham, Ken Lum, (even Weegee, Diane Arbus)...all photo-based artists whose works we've seen around Toronto over last few years. Ydessa Hendeles has explored notions of difference and diversity, assembling objects and artefacts to make contemporary fables about the way representation and distortion, appropriation and assimilation can filter group and individual identities. For this first survey of her artistic practice, The Power Plant will display works from the past decade that develop these subjects. Included is From her wooden sleep… (2013), built around a group of wooden artists’ manikins composed in an unsettling tableau vivant. Sitting on benches arranged on the gallery floor rather than displayed on plinths, they form a distinct community whose intense focus and collective gaze challenge visitors to decode their relationship with these other occupants sharing the space. Also part of this exhibition are THE BIRD THAT MADE THE BREEZE TO BLOW (Berlin, 2012)—including a large automaton, Aero-Car N˚500 (2011)—and Church & State (The Puss in Boots Project) (2008), originally made for Marburg! The Early Bird! (Marburg, 2010). Through the lens of cultural objects and icons, the exhibition conjures a deeply personal storyline about the power dynamics in relations between insiders and outsiders with all the vivid playfulness—and serious intent—of childhood fairy tales. Beginning in the early 1990s, Hendeles began to incorporate her own artistic projects into her exhibition programme at the Ydessa Hendeles Art Foundation in Toronto and continued to do so until the gallery closed in 2012, after 25 years and the passing of her mother. Her psychologically charged works have also been exhibited at Haus der Kunst, Munich, Germany (2003); National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa (2004); Gwangju Biennale, South Korea (2010); Marburger Kunstverein, Marburg, Germany (2010); Andrea Rosen Gallery, New York (2011); König Galerie, Berlin (2012); Institute of Contemporary Arts, London (2015); Kunsthaus Hamburg, Germany (2016); Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Israel (2016); and the New Museum, New York (2016). Ydessa Hendeles is represented by Barbara Edwards Contemporary (on Dupont St), Toronto, where her recent work, Death to Pigs, was exhibited in 2016. She now divides her time between studios in Toronto and New York. http://thepowerplant.org/Exhibitions/2017/Summer-2017/The-Milliners-Daughter.aspx https://www.thestar.com/entertainment/visualarts/2013/06/07/toronto_collector_ydessa_hendeles_sells_portion_of_prized_collection_to_us_museum.html Please put this date into your calendars.  Free entry, cash bar.
