SUMMARY:Evil Dead The Musical
DESCRIPTION:Five college students visit an abandoned cabin in the woods and accidentally unleash an evil force that turns them all into demons. It’s up to Ash (a housewares employee\, turned demon-killing hero)\, and his trusty chainsaw to save the day. \nA wildly entertaining Canadian adaptation of the cult-classic horror comedy\, Evil Dead The Musical explodes onto the Martha Cohen Theatre stage this Halloween season. Blood\, jokes\, cheesy effects\, and unforgettable musical numbers\, Evil Dead The Musical is pure comedy from start to finish\, and unlike any other live show out there. Expect outrageous laughs\, over-the-top gore\, and a thrilling theatrical experience. \nAudience advisory: Suggested for ages 16+. Strong language\, sexual themes\, comedic violence (including gun violence)\, and gore. The tone of the production is comedic\, however if you experience adverse effects at the sight of blood\, we do not recommend you attend this show.

SUMMARY:Natalie Gerber: load
DESCRIPTION:As an artist and a maker\, Natalie Gerber is interested in metamorphosis\, flux\, and endless cycles of becoming\, learning\, and unlearning. In this new\, site-specific installation\, Gerber brings together ceramic and textile to consider the transformative potential of weight\, gravity\, and duration. \nload begins with a constellation of ceramic forms that alternately evoke rocks\, eggs\, or celestial bodies. The forms are slip-cast\, a process wherein liquid clay is poured into a mold\, forming a skin-like surface which is revealed when the mold is released. Close inspection of the ceramics reveal the gradations within Gerber’s process\, particularly the slow deterioration of the slip-cast molds. Suspended above the ceramic forms is a sculptural silk lattice that cascades down the space akin to a net\, veil\, or shroud. To create the lattice\, Gerber laser-cuts individual modules of fused silk with a pattern that allows the two-dimensional fabric to expand into three-dimensions when pinned together and draped. In turn\, the silk lattice will evolve slowly across the duration of the installation\, gradually expanding like a lung or a ribcage. \nWhile the body is not represented directly\, it imbues Gerber’s work\, appearing in the dimpled flesh of the ceramics\, and the corporeal drape and fascia-like web of the silk lattice. Like the fallible\, malleable human body\, her work is never fixed or static either. Rather\, it is continuously shaped and re-shaped by the unrelenting forces of gravity and time.

SUMMARY:Robin Smith-Peck – Still Haunted
DESCRIPTION:“Rocks\, soil\, water\, these are the materials of the Earth. They make up the physical substance that we dig in and travel on. Landscape\, on the other hand\, is the work of the mind. The landscapes in the exhibition “Still Haunted” are composed using images from a geographic place known as the Canadian Shield. Places of exposed bedrock\, carpets of moss and stands of spruce and birch. Places with names like Labrador\, the Territories and northern Alberta. Places haunted by myth and memory.” – Smith-Peck \nShow from November 5 to November 25\, 2026. \nOpening Reception: Saturday\, November 7 from 2-5 PM; artist in attendance.

SUMMARY:Jack Bishop: In The Pines
DESCRIPTION:Newzones is pleased to present In The Pines\, a solo exhibition of new work by Canadian contemporary painter\, Jack Bishop. \nIn these new paintings segments of the Trans-Canada are like a topiary\, where the tree lines carve out an ornamental landscape the highway cuts through. The liminal space through the wilderness in a commute. For a fleeting moment the light changes\, and the familiar surroundings emote a sense of nostalgia\, romanticism or déjà vu. \nInspired by scrubby roadside foliage\, these landscapes reimagine surrounding ditches and medians into nuanced spaces where colour\, light\, and gesture take centre stage. Moving away from realism and photographic references\, the paintings embrace an intuitive approach from memory and lived experience. The tree lines become embellished forms\, while thick impasto and fluorescent palettes activate the painted surface\, creating landscapes that oscillate between figuration\, abstraction\, and sensation.

SUMMARY:Jane Jin Kaisen: Burial of This Order
DESCRIPTION:Burial of This Order brings together three works by Jane Jin Kaisen that underscore her ongoing interest in ritual\, collectivity\, capitalist critique\, and the possibilities of social and political transgressions. \nThe exhibition centres on Kaisen’s titular video installation (2022)\, through which the audience is invited to follow a funerary procession gathered to ceremoniously bury a world order built upon hierarchy and division. The social actors called on to perform this duty\, including artists\, poets and activists\, transgress traditional ceremonial practices indicating that this ritualized enactment is a funeral without grievers\, assembled to dismantle unlivable structures\, rather than lament current conditions. \nThe exhibition’s central work is accompanied by Sorrow Waters This Land (2024) and Dokkaebi (2024). The former focuses on the setting for the procession – a derelict resort on Jeju Island that was abandoned following the IMF financial crisis of the 1990s\, now persisting as a crumbling ruin of capitalism. The latter features powerful Dokkaebi deities from Korean folklore\, unpredictable tricksters who dance suggestively through the space\, haunting or perhaps compelling the procession.

SUMMARY:Bárbara Wagner & Benjamin de Burca: "Swinguerra"
DESCRIPTION:For over a decade\, Bárbara Wagner & Benjamin de Burca have developed a collaborative practice across cinema\, visual arts and performance. Their videos and installations are created in dialogue with diverse artists and collectives\, combining documentary strategies with narrative layers of fantasy and allegory. \nThrough processes of listening and shared experience\, direction\, script\, costume\, and soundtrack are collectively conceived with each project’s participants. This horizontal methodology challenges dominant representational forms by revealing tensions between popular cultural practices and hegemonic structures of visibility. Their work offers a critical reflection on the performative gesture and its social\, aesthetic\, and political reverberations.

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:Arthur Jafa: Love is the Message\, the Message is Death
DESCRIPTION:Arthur Jafa is an artist and filmmaker. Across three decades\, Jafa has developed a dynamic practice comprising films\, artefacts\, and happenings that reference and question the universal and specific articulations of Black being. Underscoring the many facets of Jafa’s practice is a recurring question: how can visual media\, such as objects\, static and moving images\, transmit the equivalent “power\, beauty and alienation” embedded within forms of Black music in U.S. culture?

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
