omg! Are they really going to be mashed together and available for viewing at one convenient location for a limited time only?
And will the viewers really get a Gordon Hicks and a John Dickson and an Alex Geddie and a Panya Clark Espinal AND an Annie MacDonell , ALL for the same price of transportation to Harbourfront???
This is an offer you can't afford to miss!
I'm feeling pretty chuffed to be in the company of all those kickass artists.
Patrick Macaulay is one of the best curators in this city.
sally, tht peice is continually one that inspires me. you are a genius, (so is lorna, who i still owe photos too)
That's sweet of you Anthony, but we don't want you heartbroken some day when you finally figure out that we are giant 'tards.
ditto that!
`at least you werent told today that you should be a cosmetician.
My grandma told me I should be a hairdresser. I grew up with very low expectations, and I've turned that into an advantage in terms of family dynamics. (they don't expect that much)
i was also told today that i could be a taxidermist. my family has super high expectations
I would be a crappy crappy crappy cosmetician. It's a source of shame.
how would you be as a taxidermist?
Awesome show. Congrats to everyone! It reminded us of how cool the science centre used to be when the hands-on stuff was actually about science.
thank you Rob! I'm pretty thrilled with the show.
As you should be, I'm waiting for some more photos to post on the front page. There was some wonderful stuff there.
