We are thrilled to announce the launch of Open Spaces: Windows to a View, a year-long public art exhibition in collaboration with Calgary Arts Development (CADA)!
This exciting initiative will transform the windows at the 7th Ave LRT Platform (adjacent to the Telus Convention Centre, between 1st Street & Centre Street S.E.) into vibrant showcases of talent, featuring the work of eight immigrant artists over the next twelve months.
What is Open Spaces?
Open Spaces celebrates Calgary’s cultural diversity by providing a platform for immigrant artists to share their unique stories, perspectives, and artistic voices. Each artist will have a three-month period to display their artwork, turning everyday windows into captivating canvases that connect art with the community.
Kicking off this captivating exhibition from September to November 2024, we are proud to feature Alexander Akhere Oriaifo!
Alexander Akhere Oriaifo, a Nigerian-born Hyperrealist, brings everyday moments to life with breathtaking detail in charcoal and graphite. His intricate works capture the beauty of realism, transforming ordinary scenes into extraordinary pieces of art that resonate with emotion and depth. Experience the transformative power of Alexander’s hyperrealistic art at the 7th Ave LRT Platform this fall!
Join us as we celebrate Alexander’s work and the incredible talent of Calgary’s immigrant community!
