SUMMARY:Curtis Talwst Santiago: worlds\, worlds\, worlds
DESCRIPTION:worlds\, worlds\, worlds explores how stories are held and carried across the vestiges of history and memory. Rooted in a form of world-building where inherited imagination meets critical fabulation¹\, the exhibition celebrates polyphonic identities that negotiate different geographies across time\, weaving the material\, the fragmentary\, and the ever-evolving within storytelling. \nCentral to the Contemporary Calgary presentation is a focused survey of Santiago’s dioramas. Begun in 2008 and collectively known as the Infinity Series\, these intimate works move fluidly between personal memories of Caribbean community life: basement dance parties\, the quintessential barbershop\, figures dreaming in the grass\, and broader collective histories such as migration crises and the rise of territorialism in its many forms. These scenes are portrayed as something precious and deliberately sheltered\, worlds that can be held in the palm of a hand\, inviting careful observation of details often overlooked.

SUMMARY:Art Book Club | Simone Elizabeth Saunders\, Encompass the Galaxy: From Studio to Publication
DESCRIPTION:Join us for thoughtful conversations about art books – a dynamic format where artists continue to push boundaries\, considering the book not just as an object but as a portal into their creative practices. As pioneering curator Seth Siegelaub insightfully stated\, “Books and exhibitions are not separate\, but extensions of the same idea.” Our Art Book Club embraces this philosophy\, bridging the worlds of exhibitions and publications. \nLed by Beth Kane\, Visitor Experience Manager\, each session offers fresh perspectives and deeper engagement with contemporary art and publishing. This is a book club for curious minds – readers\, artists\, and art lovers who view books as both inspiration and artistic practice. \nWhat to Expect:– Four sessions per year featuring guest speakers from the art and publishing worlds– A welcoming community of art book enthusiasts– A space for artists exploring the book as part of their own work– Opportunities to deepen your connection to contemporary art and/or publishing– Rich conversations with others passionate about art and ideas

SUMMARY:Ideas in the City: Travel and Adventure
DESCRIPTION:Join Mount Royal University’s Faculty of Arts in discussion of the Humanities\, Social Sciences\, and Creative Arts. \nFor some\, to travel is to invite change and difference. For others\, to travel is to indulge and find the familiar. For some\, adventure is to look\, to seek\, to engage. For others\, adventure is to escape\, to forget\, to relinquish. While travel necessitates physical movement\, adventure can occur via stories\, stimulants\, and more. Travel requires resources and time; adventure requires curiosity and willingness. Travel and adventure tempts the sociable\, the gregarious\, and the outgoing. Travel and adventure soothes the solitary\, the reticent\, and the reserved. \nHosted at the Patricia A. Whelan Performance Hall at the Central Library\, this event features engaging lightning talks that illuminate the stories\, ideas\, and experiences about travel and adventure. Whether you’re curious about design\, history\, psychology\, culture\, literature or the unexpected\, Phoenix Rising will inspire.

SUMMARY:Curtis Talwst Santiago: worlds\, worlds\, worlds
DESCRIPTION:worlds\, worlds\, worlds explores how stories are held and carried across the vestiges of history and memory. Rooted in a form of world-building where inherited imagination meets critical fabulation¹\, the exhibition celebrates polyphonic identities that negotiate different geographies across time\, weaving the material\, the fragmentary\, and the ever-evolving within storytelling. \nCentral to the Contemporary Calgary presentation is a focused survey of Santiago’s dioramas. Begun in 2008 and collectively known as the Infinity Series\, these intimate works move fluidly between personal memories of Caribbean community life: basement dance parties\, the quintessential barbershop\, figures dreaming in the grass\, and broader collective histories such as migration crises and the rise of territorialism in its many forms. These scenes are portrayed as something precious and deliberately sheltered\, worlds that can be held in the palm of a hand\, inviting careful observation of details often overlooked.
