Lisa Creskey |
| Recipient of the Lafreniere & Pai Gallery Purchase Prize at the 2010 New Arts Festival |
The gallery is keenly aware of the importance of collecting in Canada. In this spirit, Megan Lafreniere and Lisa Pai undertook to select and purchase an artwork from an exhibitor at the 2010 New Art Festival.
The selected piece, from Creskey's recent 'Alien landscapes' series, is inspired by drawings commissioned by explorers such as Jacques Cartier and Martin Frobisher. The piece exemplifies the artist's sensitive approach to storytelling through drawing.
The New Art Festival is Ottawa's largest non-profit, non-commercial, juried outdoor art exhibition. For more information visit www.artinfoboy.org.
