Closing Reception: Saturday, October 5, 5 – 7pm
Red Head Gallery, Toronto
The Red Head Gallery is pleased to present Endgame by Christine Dewancker.
In Endgame, Toronto-based artist Christine Dewancker considers the existential and ecological crises of our time. At the core of her practice is a fascination with material processes and material history, often using recycled materials to create her sculptures and installations. Inspired by socio-political and environmental forces affecting our day to day lives, she creates work for collective reflection and contemplation.
The show will also feature work from Toronto-based ceramicist, Toni Darling, including an interactive sculptural chess set.
Artist Bio:
Christine Dewancker is an artist currently living in Toronto, Canada. Through her work she explores the physical and psychological effects of the spaces we occupy and how the built environment informs our experiences and relationships with each other. She is interested in systems of production and circulation and how these conditions influence our relationship to materials and place. Much of her work is site specific, responding to the environment in which it is situated and is informed by the historical, socio-economic and ecological conditions that produce the places we inhabit.

Venue Description
The Red Head Gallery was established in 1990 and is Toronto’s most enduring collectively run art gallery. It has stood the test of time as an exhibition space as well as a collective where critically engaged, highly productive artists enjoy curatorial control over the presentation of their work. Over the past two decades more than 100 artists have been part of The Red Head Gallery and have produced over 200 exhibitions.
There are two accessible entrances to 401 Richmond. At the northwest corner of the building, a ramp leads upward from the sidewalk to an automatic entrance onto the building’s main floor that measures 34″ wide, and with a lip that measures 1″ high. The other entrance at the northeast corner is less evident but equally, if not more, accessible. The automatic door measures 34″ wide and inside has a gradual ramp downwards which leads towards the elevators.
