Join artist Kristin Man and Gallery 881 curator John Goldsmith as they guide you through a tour of Man’s exhibition Undercurrents currently on view at Gallery 881.
Kristin Man is an interdisciplinary artist and educator. Undercurrents is themed on consciousness produced by a variety of lenses including medical instruments and camera. It is an offspring of A-MARE (to love-to sea), Kristin Man’s core project since 2018. In addition to galleries in Vancouver such as Canton-sardine, Burnaby Art Council and Pendulum Gallery, Man has exhibited internationally and her work is in the collection of foundations and private individuals. She has presented her work at institutions such as the Museum of Anthropology, the Italian National Archives in Rome, Rizzoli in Milan, Recontres-ARLES, the Contemporary & Modern Art Museum in Naples, and Palazzo delle Arti Napoli as well as radio and TV interviews in Italy. She invites viewers to reflect on what being human might mean.
John Goldsmith is an artist, chemist, curator and fine art printer who last year founded his second gallery, Gallery 881. As an artist he was invited to the inaugural Capture Photography Festival and winner of the 2016 public art installation at the King Edward Canada Line station.
