Weathervane

In a time when the effects of global warming might be twice as catastrophic as previously thought, and extreme climate events threaten us worldwide, it no longer seems mundane to talk about the weather. The international exhibition, Weathervane, looks at how contemporary artists think about and utilize the weather. For some artists, the study and presentation of the phenomenological aspects of weather has enormous implications. Others use visual and textual strategies to link atmospheric conditions metaphorically to psychological, political, social and environmental concerns.

Weathervane is a collaborative project of the Ottawa Art Gallery (Ottawa) and Oakville Galleries (Oakville).
