La Shed, Gabarus
La Shed @ 82 Harbour Point Road B1K 3S9 Gabarus, PE, Canada

Maybe you remember seeing the work at La Shed this summer ? We made this short video about Stephen's last exhibition 'Everyday Day Life' that presented last october in our Montréal gallery space. (Music is by Asher Lack) enjoy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7i2iu7ioL0

Meanwhile in Montréal ! Positive, constructive, challenging and moving work is being installed, for Carlo Polidoro Lopez a hard working artist born in Calgary, then lived in Equador, then back here in Montréal after chapter or two including Toronto. The energy of Carlos' work is communicative. It inspired this funkier 1min trailer that is able to transport us (at least that is the goal..) into the funky, eclectic colourful and inspiring world of Carlo Polidoro Lopez https://youtu.be/6FsPlBQsJXQ

"The only reason to believe in God is because you can't believe in humanity." Stephen Lack, Journal of Contemporary Art, in an interview with Philip Pocock in his studio, NYC in August 1987. Already at the beginning of his forties the artist shares his disilusioned perception of humanity. Which led me to this clever thought : "When we perceive one side, the other side is concealed." I guess the trick is to always keep this in mind. And retort to our favorite objects of desi...re.. One of those phantasy objects definitely has to be the car. The car, is there something that man invented that had more impact on the world ? The roads, the access to millions and millions of kilometers of asphalt.The jobs, the petro industry, the whole economy around and with tge car. Maybe by turning our attention to those that divert and distract and bring us to the brighter side of life ? Stephen has turned his attention over and over again in the last 50 years of his life. (He is consistent with some of phantasies.)

Gouache sur aquarelle (trouvée). #peterschuyff #reclaimedart #gouachesoverwatercolors

Theoretically this piece is not in 'Everyday Life' but it actually is.. (in the office ) And there are so many other great pieces by the prolific and rarely off the mark Montreal born artist that was part of the East Village scene back in the eighties with the likes of so many driven people passionate about art and reinventing the scene with the likes of Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Sherrie Levine, Mary Boone, Tony Shafrazi, Leo Castelli, Peter Schuyff, Pat Hearn and so many more. It is a great pleasure to have all these works around us all day at the gallery. Always fun and lots of great moments sharing this solid, smart, lucid and beautiful work by our own Montreal born Stephen Lack.
