A Feast for all the Senses - Credit Union EventPlex
The Saskatchewan Arts Board partnered with Evraz Place in an exciting three-part venture at the 2009 Buffalo Days - The Queen City Ex.
One of the components was an art exhibition titled Clearing a Path: New ways of seeing traditional Indigenous Art. This exhibition showcases the talent and history of Saskatchewan's Indigenous artists working in traditional media. First launched in 2005, Clearing a Path has toured extensively around the province. In February 2009, the exhibition was in Vancouver as part of the Talking Stick Festival with the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad – serving as Saskatchewan's inaugural event at the Olympics.
Another component featured the 2009 Scott Collegiate Photojournalism Project. Building on the success of the 2008 North Central Photojournalism Project, this is a unique partnership between students from Scott Collegiate, arts educator Jori Cachene, photographer Mark Taylor and the Saskatchewan Arts Board. The 2008 project was of such a high calibre that a selection of photos was chosen by the Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils (OSAC) for a two-year tour of 20 Saskatchewan art galleries.
The third component of this venture involved Adrian Stimson as the artist-in-residence who worked with young people each day to create a very large buffalo herd. Stimson, also known as Buffalo Boy, is a versatile artist from Saskatoon who makes use of traditional media such as paint, canvas and photography, as well as creating installations and performances.
