MICHAEL DUMONTIER AND NEIL FARBER, LIBRARY (DETAIL), 2018

Michael Dumontier And Neil Farber

Kamloops Art Gallery, Kamloops, BC - To Mar 23

by Robin Laurence

Collaborating as a duo since 2008 (and before that, with the Royal Art Lodge collective), Winnipeg artists Dumontier and Farber have created a wonderfully engaging series of painted, drawn and text-based works. Their KAG exhibition, titled I wasn’t paying attention and now it’s over, includes selections from their Library paintings (on book covers and spines) and Typing prints (in which text and imagery are generated on an old manual typewriter). Humour and absurdity abound.
