'LABOURS OF LOVE' - A CELEBRATION OF WOMEN IN ART
This remarkable exhibition of paintings by Adrian Baker, with guest artists Karen Bailey, Heidi Conrod, Rosemary Leach, Katherine McNenly and Chandler Swain, is a fundraiser for The White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood. Maureen McTeer, Canadian representative of the WRA, will be in attendance at the opening reception to share refreshments and information about the organization.
This one-weekend exhibition by these well-known Ottawa artists is a must-see, organized in solidarity with women everywhere, especially those who suffer needlessly. Adrian Baker's powerful images of intimate maternal experiences and timeless domestic scenes "evoke conflicting feelings of strength, anguish, vulnerability, spirituality, and love" (pictured: "Monday Monring")
