Gallery Lombardi is pleased to present 9 Canadian artists whose painting and drawing skills have garnered international acclaim and commissions. Curated by Patrick Thompson and Felix Berube "Poutine Never Sleeps" is reference to a work ethic and the food. Poutine is cheese curds and gravy on french fries it can be purchased 24hours a day in Montreal where these artists live. It is cheap food like the Don Juan Taco. Artist Felix Berube shows in London now, but he first got fame in the seminole book Graffiti on 7 Continents, back in 1999. Patrick Thompson was invited to a mural project as part of the Barcelona Contemporary Art Festival,2007. Alex Produkt & Kathleen Wheldons's animation was short listed for a juno nomination 2008. Clint Eagleson is in shops and galleries around the world. Our event will launch the art exhibit, and the weekend long, 10 year anniversery of B-Boy City 15 National Battle and Hip Hop Festival. Romeo Navarro and crew will demonstrate breakdancing alongside the graffiti stylings of these fine artists. We believe that the 4 elements of hip hop -graffiti, breakdancing, rapping and djing are an international language that brings disparate communities together in celebration. For the purposes of “Poutine Never Sleeps” we have the Canadian street artists together with the Texas dancers and djs. Since in art rules are made to be broken, we've substituted music video animations for the rap element. This show is part of the Fuse Festival. |
