Open City Cinema is excited to present Penny Lane and Brian L. Frye's new feature length documentary OUR NIXON,  an all-archival documentary. 

Throughout Richard Nixon's presidency, three of his top White House aides obsessively documented their experiences with Super 8 home movie cameras. Young, idealistic and dedicated, they had no idea that a few years later they'd all be in prison.

This unique and personal visual record, created by H.R. Haldeman, John Ehrlichman and Dwight Chapin, was seized by the FBI during the Watergate investigation, then filed away at the National Archives, and forgotten for almost 40 years.

Preceded by two found-footage short films, by Laura Mackin and Brian L. Frye

March 7, 7:00 pm

Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art, Unit 1 - 460 Portage Avenue

Plug In ICA is pleased to present the opening reception of 

Sensing the Future: Moholy-Nagy, Media and the Arts. 

The reception is free, and all are welcome. 

The exhibition is organized around some of Moholy-Nagy’s key themes: sensory training, technology/modernity, production/reproduction, immersion/participation, art as information/information as art, and transparency/reflection/motion.

Sensing the Future considers the impact of technology today by exploring how it was addressed in the practice of the Hungarian polymath artist László Moholy-Nagy (1895 – 1946), a key figure in the history of Modernism. Moholy-Nagy is known for his work in traditional media such as painting and sculpture, but also in photography and film, as well as in stage and exhibition design, typography, and advertising. 

This short film, made by László Moholy-Nagy in 1930, is based on the shadow patterns created by his Light-Space Modulator. 

Curated by Oliver Botar, Sensing the Future combines historical artworks with works by contemporary artists from Canada, Europe and the United States. 

The artists included: Eduardo Aquino (Winnipeg); the team of Nike Arnold, Andreas Haus, Aline Helmcke, Frédéric Krauke and Walter Lenertz (Berlin); Naomi Claire (Baltimore); Lancelot Coar (Winnipeg); Olafur Eliasson (Berlin); Oskar Fischinger; Ken Gregory (Winnipeg); Patrick Harrop (Winnipeg); the team of Gottfried Jäger and Karl Martin Holzhäuser (Bielefeld); Eduardo Kac (Chicago); György Kepes; the team of Jörg U. Lensing, Gudula Schröder, Jürgen Steger, Thomas Neuhaus, Malou Airaudo and Sascha Hardt (Düsseldorf); Erika Lincoln (Winnipeg); Norman McLaren; the team of Guy Maddin, Evan Johnson, Galen Johnson, Bob Kotyk and Ryan Simmons (Winnipeg); Bernie Miller (Winnipeg); Lucia Moholy; Francisco Javier Navarro de Zuvillaga (Madrid); Freya Olafson (Winnipeg); István Sebök; and Peter Yeadon (New York).

'There is Here' a painting installation by Robert Taite

Artist talk - March 12, 2014 7 pm

Taite has installed a number of recent works in response to the architecture of aceartinc., continuing his investigation into the relationships and tensions between painting, sculpture, architecture and the body. 

Taite constructs sculptural paintings that are experiments in simple formal and material possibilities. When pieces start to pile up in his studio, their original purposes get lost as they are recycled in new assemblages. This process continues in the gallery where its space becomes a new arena for construction. The work alludes to other spaces, other worlds, but inevitably self-destructs into the here and now.

Get Your Heart On

Heart disease and stroke are two of the three leading causes of death in Canada. 

Those Girls have created an annual event called “Get Your Heart On.” Last year, with over 200 guests in attendance, we were able to raise over $15,000 for the foundation.

Donate now  to the Heart and Stroke Foundation and Desjardins Insurance will TRIPLE IT.

As a youngster, Olympic figure skater Isabelle Brasseur's fainting spells went unexplained. Eventually, doctors learned a heart defect could cause her heart to stop as a result of extreme exertion or stress. While giving birth to daughter Gabriella, Isabelle's heart stopped for 31 seconds. A jolt of adrenalin got it going again. Mom and baby were fine. 

Heart and Stroke Foundation researchers have taken major strides to prevent sudden cardiac death by identifying the link between fainting and unexplained cardiac arrest.  Every dollar donated puts us closer to making more breakthrough discoveries that save lives and support survivors, their families and caregivers.

Produced in conjunction with MY MONUMENT, the forthcoming exhibition at 

the University of Winnipeg’s Gallery 1C03 at the University of Winnipeg by Roewan Crowe, 

cam bush, Steven Leyden Cochrane, and Paul Robles (March 6 - April 5, 2014). 

Please indicate if you would prefer to have your submission published anonymously. 

Audio files can only be accepted via email at this time. Electronic submissions only. 

Submissions may also be emailed as attachments or file-sharing links.

Ace Art: David Churchill & Frank Livingstone l Sarasvàti Fundraiser: So You Think You Can Act l Flip Book Animation l Circus for Circus

February 13, 7:00 pm

Ace Art, 2-290 McDermot Avenue

Filling the Hole – Art and the spaces of the City

Between August 2013 and January 2014 twenty-two artists placed their work in a small hole in the back exterior wall of a grocery store in Winnipeg’s West End. Each Sunday afternoon a different artist would install work in this modest opening facing a back alley. 

The actual gallery site was devoid of any indications or explanations of the art or artist. This impromptu micro gallery presented art at its most vulnerable, exposed not only to elements but also to the random attentions of passersby. 

Join Gallery founders and co-coordinators Frank Livingston and David Churchill, as they discuss the concept behind the gallery, the artists who donated their work, and the reactions to the gallery and to the art itself. 

Frank Livingston is a Winnipeg based artist and gardener. 

David Churchill, teaches history at the University of Manitoba.
