“Life is complicated; choices are hard; sometimes you just have to go with your gut.”

Library Gallery (L’Briary) is pleased to host the first solo exhibition in Winnipeg of art by Brian Hunter, a Winnipeg-based artist. Hunter, a Winnipeg Police Officer, presents a new body of work exploring instincts and assumptions.

Hunter is a multidisciplinary artist of Metis/Ukrainian descent. His practice includes video and interactive installations. In 2016, he won the 18th RBC Canadian Painting Competition. In 2012, Hunter spent one year in residency at the Gwangju Museum of Art in South Korea. Select exhibitions and festivals include Kunsthalle Gwangju in South Korea, the Ourense film festival in Spain, and the Power Plant in Toronto. Hunter graduated from Concordia University in 2007 with a BFA in Studio Arts.

Upcoming projects include a collaboration between Winnipeg Police Officers and youth at the Graffiti Gallery as well as participation in the Plug In ICA summer residency.

Special thanks to the Winnipeg Arts Council.
