  • Kim Kennedy Austin
    AJ

    Malaspina Printmakers presents AJ, an exhibition of new drawings and etchings by Vancouver artist Kim Kennedy Austin. Austin draws inspiration for her works on paper directly from outdated technologies, do-it-yourself aesthetics, and defunct artistic practices. The printed word is often depicted in her work as transcriptions and quotes from a wide range of historical texts. This exhibition is a result of Austin’s research surrounding the manhunt of Albert Johnson: The Mad Trapper of Rat River, a mysterious fugitive who was killed by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police near Eagle River in the Yukon on February 17, 1932. This is Malaspina's second exhibition in a series investigating text-based prints.

    January 6 to February 5, 2012
