SUMMARY:Basil AlZeri: The Most Prized Of All Closets
DESCRIPTION:Basil AlZeri’s performance-lecture The Most Prized of All Closets explores the dual function of the pantry as a site of preservation and resistance. The pantry serves a basic function in a home as the place where fermented\, pickled\, preserved and dried foods are stored. With the advent of the global production and distribution of food\, many people are losing their connection to their local food practices\, traditions\, cultures\, and\, thus\, their pantries. For this reason\, social movements aiming to revitalize local food cultures and establish food sovereignty see the pantry as a vital site in the struggle against globalization and colonialism. Through an examination of the role of the pantry in Canada\, Estonia\, and Palestine\, AlZeri examines the pantry as a complex site where cultural\, economic\, political and social preservation become intertwined with practices of resistance. \n  \nBasil AlZeri: Most Prized Of All Closets\nPart of The Art of Propagation series\nWednesday\, November 8\, 7 – 9 pm\nHenderson Brewery\, 128A Sterling Rd.\nRSVP for free admission \n  \nThe Art of Propagation \nThe Art of Propagation presents a monthly conversation about varied relationships between culture\, food and social histories. The series features artists who broaden perspectives on art and culture through acts and projects of cultivation\, fermentation and propagation. \n  \nThe series will continue every second Wednesday of the month through March 2018 at Henderson Brewery\, MOCA’s future neighbour on Sterling Rd. \n  \nBasil AlZeri \nBasil AlZeri is a visual artist living and working in Toronto\, Canada. AlZeri’s practice involves the intersection of art\, education\, and food\, taking multiple forms\, such as performance\, interventions\, gallery and public installation. AlZeri’s work examines the socio-political dynamics of the family and its intersection with cultural practices\, drawing on the necessities of everyday life and the visibility of labour as sites of exploration. His work aims to facilitate a space for empathy through gestures of inclusivity and generosity. \n  \nHenderson Brewing Co.\n128A Sterling Rd\nHenderson Brewing company is a locally owned\, award winning\, neighbourhood brewery in downtown Toronto. Founded in 2014\, Henderson is all about celebrating the stories and culture of our city through the beers we brew.

SUMMARY:Pint-Sized Conversations: Body of Work with Cason Sharpe (Art Metropole)
DESCRIPTION:Pint-Sized Conversations a weekly Wednesday night brought to you by Henderson Brewing Co. MOCA will present “Body of Work” every second Wednesday of the month.\n\n\n \n\n\n“Body of Work” talk invites artists and those who have worked across the floors of MOCA Toronto—members of Akin’s Studio Program\, Art Metropole\, the Ontario Science Centre’s studio residency and the Toronto Biennial—to discuss their individual practices. ‘Body’ is a term used to describe the texture and weight of beer\, and the word body in artistic practice often refers to a particular arrangement of artworks. The speakers in this series have been invited to respond to this duality.\n\n\n \n\n\n—\n\n\n \n\n\nCason Sharpe will give an introduction to the world of arts publishing by providing micro-reviews of three titles available from the Art Metropole catalogue. By dissecting these three books\, Cason will distinguish the artist book as a unique form that exists in conversation with but separately from the more traditional worlds of visual art or literary publishing. \n\n\n\n\n\nCason Sharpe is a writer currently based in Toronto. His fiction and criticism has appeared in Canadian Art\, C Magazine\, PRISM International\, The Hart House Review\, and GUTS Canadian Feminist Magazine\, among others. His first collection of short stories\, Our Lady of Perpetual Realness\, was released by Metatron Press in 2017. He has worked as the Manager of Art Metropole since 2018. \n\n\n\n\n\nArt Metropole is a not-for-profit organization with a focus on the production\, dissemination and contextualization of artist-initiated publication in any media\, especially those formats and practices predisposed to sharing and circulation. Found in 1974 by the artist collective General Idea\, Art Metropole now operates a retail storefront in the Museum of Contemporary Art in Toronto\, as well as its own publishing program\, and an extensive archive at the National Gallery of Canada.\n\n\nLearn more about Pint-Sized Conversations\n\nPhoto by Ben Rahn Photography Inc.

SUMMARY:Pint-Sized Conversations: Body of Work with Leone McComas
DESCRIPTION:Pint-Sized Conversations with MOCA is a monthly night brought to you by Henderson Brewing Co. MOCA will present Body of Work every second Wednesday of the month.\n\n\n \n\n\nBody of Work talks invite artists and those who have worked across the floors of MOCA Toronto—members of Akin’s Studio Program\, Art Metropole\, the Ontario Science Centre’s studio residency and the Toronto Biennial—to discuss their individual practices. ‘Body’ is a term used to describe the texture and weight of beer\, and the word body in artistic practice often refers to a particular arrangement of artworks. The speakers in this series have been invited to respond to this duality.\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLeone McComas is a Canadian-Nigerian Visual Artist and Designer. Her painting practice examines ideas of the self and the internalization of social ideals\, which she utilizes to create figurative and post-digital landscapes. McComas will discuss her journey of addressing the limits of canvas painting\, focusing on her project STUDY\, the presentation of mural art in exhibitions\, and her experience with live painting.\n\n\n\nLeone McComas received her B.Des from OCADU in 2013 and participated in their 36th Florence Studio Residency Program. She is a recipient of the OIEOS Scholarship (2010)\, and OAC Visual Arts Project Grant (2018)\, and took part in the inaugural AKINxMOCA Studio Program from 2018-19. \n  \n\n\nThis event is free and all are welcome. If you’d like to reserve a spot\, you can buy a ticket for $5 and enjoy a free pint when you arrive.\n\nLearn more about Pint-Sized Conversations \n\nRegister for tickets\n\nLeone McComas\, gallery shot from An Index\, 2019.
