The Moment Eternal

Captivating new work by Bret Culp and Julie McGregor focuses on intimate moments that express a quietness of spirit. Culp's dramatic black and white photographs of Tuscany and Ireland reveal the beauty of impermanence. McGregor’s emotional portraits and romantic images of Italy capture longed for moments in time.

The Moment Eternal: October 28 - November 19

Capturing the Human Spirit
Nov 25, 2007 - Jan 13, 2008

This exhibition concludes the Varley Art Gallery's 10th anniversary celebration and is the second biennial contemporary portraiture exhibition.

Portraiture in this context is also defined as "identity", to include the full breadth of perspectives on Canadian portraiture.

The exhibition is presented in partnership with the Ontario Society of Artists, Portrait Society of Canada and Sculptors Society of Canada. The exhibition was juried by Yves Theoret, Director of Exhibitions and Interpretation for the Portrait Gallery of Canada; Odon Wagner, Owner of the Odon Wagner Gallery; and George Boileau, Sculptor and Associate Professor in the Faculty of Art at the Ontario College of Art and Design.
