“Beyond Wabi Sabi” Solo Exhibition
The Alberta Society of Artists is pleased to present a solo exhibition featuring the work of Alberta artist Mary Whale.
This exhibition coincides with the play ‘Amigo’s Blue Guitar” by Joan MacLeod, which runs February 7- 17, 2024, at the Walterdale Theatre, 10322 83 Ave. NW, Edmonton Alberta.
There will be a public opening on Tuesday, February 6, 7-8 pm followed by a free preview of Walterdale’s production of ‘Amigo’s Blue Guitar’. The exhibition is free and open to the public when the theatre is open.
“The term Wabi Sabi connotes such qualities as impermanence, humility, asymmetry and imperfection
in things. The way we, as people, age is not unlike that of a revered piece of pottery that has survived
the ravages of use; the cracks to be filled with gold. The ‘beauty of use’ can be witnessed in old people;
the patina, the textures, and the incredible lines.”
