building cities
Exhibition Sponsored by
Those of us who live in cities experience a cycle of rise and fall, growth, change, decay and amazing development.
Our own city has been a center of this activity in the last decade. The challenges, issues and progress of city
planning, and urban redevelopment and the experience of city-life are the concerns of this exhibit.
The artists in Building Cities are fascinated by the edifices and activity growing around them, and their work
creatively explores concepts of place, space, land and structure, systems of transportation and information, living
spaces and people's movement through them. Some, like Bill Rybak, Michael Tweedie and Daryl-Ann Saunders,
start with existing constructions; buildings, plans, subway systems, and transform them into fantastic, abstract form.
Mey-Mey Lim's small paintings convey the sense of quiet city residetial streets. Tim Daly's realistic works capture
the light of daytime and night and give us a sense of a moment in time. Sandra DeSando's photographs are
painterly studies in light and structure. William Rodwell wonderfully captures the perfect meeting of the passerby in
the geometry of architecture, and Brooke Burough's present uniquely beautiful moments of city-living.
