Drew Klassen: On The Way to Dave's (and Other Places)
GFA is pleased to present “On the Way to Dave’s (and Other Places), ”a vibrant and captivating collection of works by Ontario based artist, Drew Klassen. Drawing inspiration from travels between 1991 and present-day, this latest collection represents a selection of images of favoured scenery with a non-linear storyline. Viewers are transported alongside a visual memoir of the artist’s exploration of places both far and near to home and are called into an intimate assemblage of Klassen’s most stimulating recollections. Each work is a subtle tribute to changing weather and the interest in alteration which only years and seasons can provide. The artist’s work masterfully captures mood and solidifies a long-passed moment of light and time. The languid splendour and inherent anticipation of traveling to a promised destinationare artfully condensed into each of Klassen’s highly entrancing works, permitting viewers the ability to be transported anywhere and everywhere in the unpretentious and soothing presence of these stunning views.
