Dayna Danger! Live on CKUT!

We are very excited to be joined live in studio by artist Dayna Danger for the April edition of the show. Danger is perhaps best known for her large-scale photographs whose conspiratorial protagonists dominate each compelling and elaborately constructed scene.

Also, we will talk about a number of great exhibitions and events on now & opening soon: Montréal Monochrome, Howl Arts Festival, Papier 16...

*airing live April 7th, 2-3pm*

On Decline and Collapse

For the first episode of 2016, we bring you an interview with Tricia Middleton! Her sculptures and installations are sprawling, enchanted, oozing, materially adventurous victims of gravity.

Her latest exhibition Justine opens on January 13th and runs until the 13th of February at Galerie Antoine Ertaskiran.

This episode airs Thursday January 7th, 2-3pm and can be downloaded thereafter from the CKUT archives.

Bambitchell on ASAH

Just a reminder that you can still go back and listen to the November 5th edition of Art Scene and Heard -- download or stream it from the CKUT archives.

We featured an interview with Bambitchell, the multidisciplinary collaborative art duo of Alexis Mitchell and Sharlene Bamboat, who recently brought their participatory installation Silent Citizen to articule. We also aired an excerpt of a discussion the artists participated in at the gallery with Nazik Dakkach.

Connais ton artiste

Recently I visited the exhibition up at Galerie René Blouin with David Lafrance - tune in to CKUT today to hear his musings on the paintings of Anthony Burnham, Chris Kline, and Nicolas Lachance. We'll also hear about David's own work. En français!


David Lafrance's Demolition, oil on canvas, 2015


Also, this evening a show called Touché par la lumière: peinture et métaphysique opens at the McClure gallery. Curated by David Elliott, it brings together the work of Matthieu Bouchard, Bea Parsons, Ludovic Cléroux, and Allison Katz. Listen in for the wee chat I had with Matthieu about the exhibition. En anglais!

If you can't catch it live, download it from the archives.
