SUMMARY:Thomas Sparling: Grand Manan  Watercolours
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Sparling will attend the opening on 22 September 2018\, 2-4 pm. \nThomas Sparling’s scenes of the coastal landscapes of Grand Manan Island capture the light\, atmosphere and textures of the island with a bold and assured handling of his brush and paint. A resident of Saint Andrew’s New Brunswick in the warmer seasons\,  Sparling has been painting this landscape for many years and his  strong ties to the region are evident in his art. His close observations of nature are described in watercolour with bold forms\, deep colour and lively mark making which together foreground the abstract nature of representation.

SUMMARY:CUBA CONTEMPORARY PRINTS
DESCRIPTION:Opening 22 September 2018\nArtists Danisbel Abad Lopez and Mauricis Reyes Aranda\nalong with the exhibition curator Robert Van de Peer will be in attendance at the opening. \nThe exhibition Cuba: Contemporary Prints is the result of a creative partnership between artists from Canada and Cuba. The bridging force has been master printmaker Robert Van de Peer. In residence during the summer at Sunbury Shores Arts and Nature Centre’s Printshop in St Andrews\, New Brunswick\, Robert spends the winter in the printshop at the Taller Cultural Luis Diaz Eduardo in Santiago De Cuba. \n“My part-time residence in Cuba over the past six years has given me the opportunity to teach non-toxic techniques in printmaking and form a close relationship with Cuban artists. Cuban printmakers are limited by the availability of materials\, and the most common technique that is used is collagraph\, a print made from a matrix of cardboard and glue. They have refined this process to a fine degree\,” says Van De Peer. He described the Cuban printmakers’ creative ideas as often dream-like\, romantic in many ways\, and having a distinct echo of Africa\, brought to the island through the early slave trade. \nWe are honoured to host this exhibition which\, in itself\, has been a collaborative effort between our sister galleries Sunbury Shores\, the Saint John Art Centre and us. The Cuban printmakers are masters of invention using the materials that are available to them and the results are impressive. \nJennifer Stead\nExecutive Director
