(with overwhelming enthusiasm) we are welcoming to the Elevation Gallery roster, Hamilton based painter Vick Naresh. Superimposing organic imagery on pattern, metaphor on reckoning, and modernity on nostalgia, Vick hones his voice through the act of painting. Hinting at his lived experience within the rich color and pattern, the artist shares the implication of time and place while leaving room for the viewer to filter their own experiences into the work. The full catalogue of available work by Vick Naresh will be posted on our website on Friday, and be exhibited in the gallery beginning June 15. Please reach out with inquiries or advance images.

With early career artists, we tend to encourage painting in series for awhile: filling out a concept and honing skills through refining ex*****on of an idea. But as these artists move deep into mid-career, as is the case with .ouellet.art , I embrace the pieces between series….the oddities, the breath of air when this artist can explore something completely new without the pressure of ‘where will this lead?’. Loooovvve this new painting by .ouellet.art ! In the gallery now!

For many years and in our many locales, we added ‘weddings’ to our insane list of responsibilities. I have counted more than 500 events designed and produced by Elevation Gallery over 30 years. It largely grew out of guilt at building such beautiful spaces that were only being shared with the exclusivity of art, artists and art-lovers. When looking back, I celebrate the joy that we brought to these larger groups, the beauty that we created (yup, we did all of those tablescapes and flowers ourselves!). Do I miss it? HELL NO! I’m a better gallerist and human being for never touching another flower again! But it was pretty.

One of the delights of my 30 year tenure in this business has been those moments when I get to reflect on my longest relationships with artists. Last night, I happened across an image from 2008 of a piece by . Year by year, I’ve witnessed her rigorous and determined practice to mature as a painter….particularly as an elemental landscape painter. I’ve never invoked the relative comparison images, but tonight I must! Flip to the 2008 image, then back to today. It is staggering how capable she has become….all commercial affectations have dropped away, and the idiosyncrasy of her mark-making is unapologetic.

The lounge takes on many tones. We want our collectors to spend time, and to interact with the work in a space outside of ‘the white cube’. and a tiny edge of are our lounge views tonight!

New exhibitions offer an opportunity to see existing pieces of art in a different context….and here is a perfect example. These lovely ‘gossamer’ vases by were gathered to relate to .murray_art ‘s exhibition works, and WOW! The gallery is alive with new vistas. Come visit, we’ll make you a lovely coffee or pour you a glass of wine, and you can find your perfect contemplation spot to pass this (possibly crappy weather) May Long Weekend.

This is a tough one. I’m learning Ai based marketing apps and trying to test my audience on how you feel about it. This was the labour that resulted in being scrapped and I just moved on to a basic image reel. Which do you prefer? Welcoming all commentary!
