Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art:
Performance Café with Perforated Sides - Dan Graham
Closes December 31

Curated by Anthony Kiendl, the installation was created for Plug In ICA's roof terrace, an outdoor program space. 

Since the late 1970s, Dan Graham's work has focused upon public architectural installations called pavilions. Blurring the line between art and architecture, Graham's pavilions comprise steel, mirror and glass structures that create diverse optical effects. Created as hybrids, they operate as functional spaces and art installations.

Riding the buses in Winnipeg you may have seen some of Ace Art's posters - they are quotes from critical responses to our exhibitions or from the essays we feature in our PaperWait publication. 

We invite you to photograph all 7 of them - post on our Facebook page, Instagram (#ace_transit), or email them to us. Whoever sends all 7 first will get them published in the 2013/14 edition of PaperWait and will get a free membership to Ace.
