A Prairie Vernacular: Folk and Contemporary Art Narratives of Life on the Prairies

to

Esplanade Art Gallery 401 First Street SE, Medicine Hat, Alberta T1A 8W2

A Prairie Vernacular presents a stunning array of historic and contemporary vernacular artworks from the Canadian prairies, based on shared interest in prairie experience, culture, environment and sensibilities as compelling sources for artistic practice. Adopting the materials, methods and motivations of a folk aesthetic, these works reflect on memories and histories of life on the prairies and present visual narratives rife with humour, fantasy, myth, politics, religion, and the prairie gothic.

Co-curated with the Moose Jaw Museum & Art Gallery.
