SUMMARY:Q.W.Y.C. Programming -- Diane Borsato: Arrangements\, 2015
DESCRIPTION:Diane Borsato will be producing Sogetsu-style Ikebana flower arrangements using objects and left-over materials from museum installations and receptions. \nShe will be working on the ephemeral sculptures in the gallery on Saturday June 27th and on Friday July 24th. The arrangements will be on view for approximately one week following their construction. \nDiane Borsato is a Canadian visual artist whose work explores pedagogical practices and experiential ways of knowing through performance\, intervention\, video\, installation\, and photography. Her multidisciplinary and socially engaged works are often created through the mobilization of distinct groups of people including arts professionals\, artists\, and naturalists.[2] Her work has been widely exhibited in galleries\, museums and artist-run-centres across Canada and internationally\, including the Vancouver Art Gallery\, Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, The Art Gallery of York University(AGYU)\, the National Museum of Fine Arts of Quebec\, At rMetropole\, Mercer Union\, the Musée d’Art Contemporain in Montreal\, and in galleries in the US\, France\, Germany\, Mexico\, Taiwan and Japan. Borsato was a Sobey Art Award nominee in 2011 and 2013 and the recipient of the Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton Award in 2008 for her research and practices in the Inter-Arts category from the Canada Council for the Arts. In 2013\, she was an artist in residence at The Art Gallery of Ontario where she created actions\, like Tea Service (Conservators Will Wash the Dishes) and Your Temper\, My Weather\, that animated the collections and environments of the gallery. Borsato is an Associate Professor of Interdisciplinary Studio at the University of Guelph where she teaches in the areas of 2D Integrated Media\, Extended Practices and in the MFA program. She creates advanced\, thematic studio courses that explore social and conceptual practices that have included Food and Art\, Special Topics on Walking\,LIVE ART and Outdoor School. \nBorsato is considered to be at the forefront of relational\, interventionist and performative practices in Canada. In his essay\, The Knowing of Diane Borsato\, Philip Monk\, Curator and Director of the Art Gallery of York University\, unpacks and elucidates the complexity of Diane’s art practice saying\, “she might alternately be described as a performance artist\, an interventionist\, or a relational aesthetician. None of these\, though\, adequately describe the subtlety\, intimacy\, and often wry absurdity of her work. The artist proposes alternate forms of knowledge and processes of learning that are eccentric – yet mundane – researches into the forms and experience and boundaries of everyday life.”

SUMMARY:Q.W.Y.C. Programming - Henri Fabergé: Feint of Hart
DESCRIPTION:A site-specific performance created by transmedia storytelling artist Henri Fabergé in collaboration with Kayla Lorette and Miguel Rivas. \nSynopsis: You are invited to attend a reception at Boyce Naval Academy in honour of their historic win at the annual Regatta\, their first in over thirty five years. General Headmaster Lorette is celebrating the defeat of his own alma mater – Grey Naval Academy\, widely considered the créme of the nation’s military might. But rumours swirl amidst the festivities\, as the Headmaster of Grey has not been sighted since the racing vessels set sail… \nDURATIONAL PERFORMANCES (6pm-7:15pm) \nGuests are greeted by Instructor Rivas at the door\, a nervous and weedy member of the Boyce staff who ceremoniously ass-kisses those with a powerful name while deflecting questions from Grey cadets who are holding a vigil nearby for their missing Headmaster. \nAs you step into the Boyce’s Boys tavern\, Henri Fabergé and several fellow cadets are boisterously singing a selection of classic naval shanties around a pianist at a keyboard+amp. Grab a drink at the bar and join in the singalong. \nIn the main gallery\, Headmaster General Lorette is gleefully holding court in front of his ship\, draped in the regatta banner and retelling the tale of his regatta victory to anyone who will listen while drowning himself in chardonnay. The Regatta Judge is in attendance\, acquiescing to Lorette’s win but terribly worried about the missing Headmaster from Grey. \nDENOUEMENT (approx 7:30pm)\nLorette calls everyone to the main gallery\, and introduces Fabergé to sing a tune written especially for the occasion. Much to his horror\, the song is titled “We Cheated.” As Lorette and Rivas furiously “shhh” him\, the cadets from Grey have managed to get in and open the ship’s cabin: out comes the Headmaster of Grey\, bound and gagged. They remove a Boyce insignia (stuck to the bow? a flag? whatever the artist is ok with)\, revealing that Lorette did in fact board the Grey vessel mid-sea and sail the superior ship to victory. The reception continues with Fabergé and his Grey counterpart (possibly Carmen Elle from the band DIANA) sing some duets\, as the Boyce and Grey characters argue theatrically with the regatta judge stuck in the middle.

SUMMARY:Q.W.Y.C. Programming — 21 Bottle Salute
DESCRIPTION:Dean Baldwin’s exhibition Queen West Yacht Club will close with an adaptation of the naval tradition of the 21 gun salute. The custom stems from naval tradition\, where a warship would fire its cannons harmlessly out to sea\, until all ammunition was spent\, to show that it had disarmed. \nOver MOCCA’s final summer at our 952 Queen Street West location\, the artist’s fictitious yacht club and social venue in situ has played host to contributing artists who have gathered in a program of talks\, gleaning\, reading\, welcoming\, eating\, imbibing and performing. \nOn the closing evening\, Baldwin has invited the gallery invigilators to lead the sabering of 21 champagne bottles in a toast to the MOCCA as it raises anchor and begins its voyage west. \nJoin us! BYOB and something tasty to share. \nFor more information about MOCCA’s future site on Sterling Road\, visit mocca.ca/sterling
