The PepTides - Oblivious Humans, October 22nd, 2016

For the first offering of the season, Ottawa’s celebrated art pop music collective The PepTides bring you an evening in two parts.

The first is the Social/Antisocial Hour featuring a walk through our "cabinet of curiosities": a multimedia installation filled with carefully chosen artifacts from our artistic process—and perhaps a surprise or two.

The second is an up-close-and-personal performance experience, replete with sumptuous rhapsodies, spine-tingling harmonies, lipstick, heels and PVC. The songs you will hear, the brainchild of painter-turned-musician Claude Marquis, reveal the composer’s artfully provocative slant on love, hate, revenge, sex, religion, war, and getting ready for dates.

Just for tonight, we invite you to skip the meat and potatoes of life. Welcome to dessert.

Mark B. StephensonM, February 16th, 2017

Join Mark as he unveils a large interactive piece of physical art that you can touch and move, changing the appearance of the art itself into countless permutations. The subject becomes clear and then less defined as we participate in the experience. The work is in its most complete form while CSArt subscribers explore it over the course of the exhibition. For the event finale the exhibition will be separated into its individual parts, allowing each CSArt subscriber to take home a unique piece of art.

Gather together around the table, with potter Susie Osler and poet Chris Turnbull, for an evening of conversation and tangible and generative art that includes ceramics, photography, poetry and food.

Chris Turnbullrout/e, May 28th, 2017

rout/e is a literary take on the ‘nature note’ we find on trails in conservation areas, parks, and, sometimes urban walks. Since 2011, poet Chris Turnbull has installed/placed poems by contemporary Canadian and international writers on a diverse set of trails mostly in Eastern Ontario, to be encountered by whomever and whatever comes upon them. A spring collection for 2017 will be offered to CSArt subscribers – in the spirit of spring plantings, subscribers will experience a reading nature walk, accompanied by a CSArt supported publication.
