Bust/Boom

The New Gallery (TNG), Calgary, AB - May 25 – Jun 29

by Robin Laurence

Guest curators Noa Bronstein and Deborah Wang have assembled an amazing line-up of artists in a show that examines boom-and-bust economic cycles through both “abstract and tangible markers.” The late Gordon Matta-Clark (acclaimed for his architectural interventions and deconstructions), Gabrielle L’Hirondelle Hill, Hwayeon Nam, Richard Ibghy, Marilou Lemmens and An Te Liu have all produced works that speak to the often devastating impacts of fi nancial crises on individuals and communities.
