‘ABSTRACTION NOW’
Harcourt House celebrates the 120th anniversary of abstract art (1906–2026) with the launch of two visually compelling and conceptually engaging exhibitions presented under the banner Abstract Art @ 120.
The Main Gallery presents Abstraction Now: Harcourt’s Practitioners of Abstract Art + Guest Artists. Curated by Jacek Malec, Harcourt’s Executive Director, this exhibition brings together Harcourt’s abstract painting practitioners, highlighting diverse approaches - particularly colour-field and lyrical abstraction, as well as minimalist practices - within the Edmonton context. Featured artists include Scott Cumberland, Darren Kooyman, Carla Lam, Sheila Luck, Mitchel Smith, and Wiz Wensel.
Their work is presented alongside a select group of established abstract artists from Edmonton and Calgary working in sculpture and painting: Catherine Burgess, Peter Hide, and Seka Owen. Notably, Hide and Owen were associated with the Edmonton School of Abstraction and the Edmonton Contemporary Artists’ Society (ECAS). Influenced by modernist ideals in painting and sculpture, this local movement - operating across a range of conceptual and formal frameworks - emphasized vibrant colour, gestural abstraction, and minimalist and geometric forms.
The Haakonson Family Gallery presents Not Solid, an exhibition of eight new acrylic and mixed-media paintings by Edmonton-based artist Timothy Grieco.
Gallery Hours: 10-5pm Mon - Sat. Closed Sun & Statutory Holidays
