by Kate Fane
The Toronto art scene can be frightening. These are your best bets in the week ahead.
On Now >> Arthur Desmarteaux and Allison Moore at Open Studio
by Kate Fane
With Micropolis 2.0, Desmarteaux and Moore can’t decide whether they want to instill wonder, awe, or disgust. Granted, all three of these emotions are felt when strolling down King Street on a Saturday night.

Noticed >> Monochromes

Monochromes are back! The proof is in the pudding: three concurrent Toronto shows that consider their conceptual, political, and formal implications, respectively.

Monte Clark Gallery
On Now >> Sarah Cale @ Jessica Bradley
by Heather White
I want to be careful in describing Sarah Cale’s new works; unseen and reduced to the bare facts of its innovation, her project could read dispassionate. So take note: Cale’s new body of work exudes as much presence and charge as the aesthetic it abandons. The show has major soul.

Noticed >> Translation
By Heather White
The artists with work up at Diaz Contemporary, Mercer Union, Leo Kamen and Bau-Xi Photo are all translators. They translate between different modes of art – literature, painting, photography – and their process is translation as Walter Benjamin saw it: as an art far beyond the rote processing of information. Over and above literal meaning, this art honours the tone and spirit of an original, and aims not to preserve but to complement.
