Our Next Project... The Fab Fridge with Alban Low!

For those of you who did not know, this year the FDG participated in it's first international show; Alban Low's Open Fridge 2010 Magnetic Miniatures exhibition. This event was a great success and twelve McGill artists participated :)

Alban has written to us asking if we would like to participate in his up coming show; Fab Fridge.
We are very excited about this event and if anyone is interested in submitting, please let us know!

This show will be going up in June as part of the Fringe Arts Bath Festival in Bath, England.

If you are interested in submitting as a Fridge Door Gallery artist: Please send us your art (9x12 cm or 4:3 ratio) by April 21st (including title, your name, and a website if you have one) and we will take care of the rest!

Cruxism: Vernissage March 25th 2010

We invite you join us on March 25th for the launch of Cruxism!

We have called upon the wide variety of McGill student artists and have gathered an amazing array of art work. Our goal here is to do away with the last remnants of Greenbergian specificity and truly embrace the Medias of our time. Today more than ever before traditional forms of art no longer consume the field. This is not to say that painting is dead, but rather that we take pride in our fluency in several media.

As we embark on a new decade, how will we make our mark on the present for the future? How will we be remembered? Working in/outside/around the White Cube it is clear that Art is undergoing major renovations.

In this space we have a chance to experiment, to break open neat compartments, stretch boundaries and take on new meanings, to remix, to attract new audiences, to ultimately provide a place for exploration.

This year the Fridge Door Gallery offers a spectrum of emerging voices that will come together on March 25th- an event that will consequently define the movement itself.

Canvas Journal will be available as well, hot off the press!!!

Beverages and Goodies will be provided!
