THAT WAS THEN, THIS IS NOW (Calgary, Canada)

Thursday, January 8, 2009

I am honored to be joining concept designer Caryn Sturhahn and The Marquee Room for the upcoming Music/Arts - Opening THAT WAS THEN, THIS IS NOW (Calgary, Canada). Unfortunately I will not be in attendance. Even if you are unable to make the opening I would highly recommend taking a look at Sturhahn's new works "NO, I DIDN'T STEAL THIS OUT OF YOUR TRASH." THAT WAS THEN, THIS IS NOW opens Thursday, January 8, 2009 and runs until the end of January.

I would like to send out a really big thank you to Sturhahn and The Marquee Room for the organization/invitation/catering as well as the stunning design+print for this event!

Ahoj and Hej!

I'm really not sure how to express my gratitude and appreciation for all of the positive support as well as being able to share public and personal moments with many of you. I'm definitely looking forward to meeting those of you that I have not met yet in the new year. For the projects that I have been invited to help out with and even be a part of I say thank so very much!

On a respectful note, I feel extremely privileged to join artists such as Rachel Barrett (USA) and Grace Wawa Yang (Taiwan) in the upcoming book Through the Eyes of New Photographers due out next year. To me, some of their recent work seems to touch on several elements and side effects of "time" which I find very compelling.

"The 240 newsstands I have archived will soon all be gone but the photographs will remain." - Rachel Barrett

Warm regards, dìkuji ti, شكرا لك

tenement+iv, 1984+½ (2009)

With the first "verse" now finished and the rest at about 50%, I think I can actually see this personal project being completed! I'm pretty excited with the "pair up" of this with the photographic series (same name and theme, but on canvas :) With that, I will be resuming my "kraft dinner" budget and trying to spend my fabrication of time a bit more wisely.. Baby steps! :)

On an enthusiastic note, if you are an artist with similar influences/interests thinking about quirky projects (2009-2010) to collaborate on please drop me a line.. Likewise, if you ever find yourself "across the pond" in the new year I would be more than happy to introduce you to one or two galleries and personalities that you might get along with!

Cheers!

tenement+iv, 1984+½ (2009) is the film/video accompaniment to the photographic series 1984+½:

Shot in four countries, between 2005 and 2008, tenement+iv is the fourth experimental urban documentary by visual artist Leigh Anthony DEHANEY. As with his gallery work, he continues to conceptually explore themes of retro-futurism, apocalyptic titanism, communication and the nihilistic.

Many of the psycho acoustic soundscapes were initially constructed by Dehaney during 2003-2006 while attending the Alberta College of Art + Design in Canada.

Group Photo Show "NINE" in Calgary, Canada

Dehaney will be one of nine featured artists showing his series "Rose Boudoir" at the upcoming group photography show "Nine" in Calgary, Canada.

ROSE BOUDOIR

Somewhat reminiscent of his earlier work in One Star Motel, Dehaney's Rose Boudoir reveals elements of time in relation to artifacts and analysis. This time the environment appears to be a smoke-filled stage of palatial trappings and yet somewhat nondescript.. "For those that must simply present," says Dehaney. The experimental film component of this series was actually completed first. Dehaney then used the moving imagery derive the three mercurial sequences of stills for the photographic portion of Rose Boudoir.

The original prints will be on display at the Group photographic exhibition "NINE" in Calgary, Canada from NOVEMBER 14 - 22 at ARTHOUSE 1043 19TH AVENUE SE

Chronos

Dehaney will be showing one last round of (photographic) work in Calgary/Canada this
year, but unlike other documentation projects of his, He's started to dig through the years
of imagery and try to actually arrange and relate moments in time.

For about the last 10 years Dehaney has been targeting just over one hundred locations
around the downtown core+mission district in Calgary Canada and following up with them
once a year.. every year. With almost 100,000 visual records (some random ones starting
around the early 80's) these panels focus on locations from 1999 and on.

In the interest of or lack of time (pun intended) Chronos will reveal just three of
these locations.
