TNG presents Seasonal Effective

The third annual installment of TNG’s educational initiative providing “real world” curatorial experience to senior art students, this year’s exhibition will feature works from ACAD selected by Jenna Swift, a student from the University of Calgary’s Art History program, who has curated an exhibition which explores the effect of environmental factors on the internal weather of the psychological condition. This exhibition title is a variation on the mood disorder clinically known as Seasonal Affective Disorder. The onset of this condition conventionally occurs in winter, as the temperature drops and days grow shorter. The tyranny of winter manifests itself in subtle and insidious ways, causing us to withdraw from the world outside.  Seasonal Effective will seek to reveal the mental processes which follow this retreat.

Friday February 19 through Saturday March 20, 2010

Opening reception: Friday February 19, 2010 at 7 PM
