Openings: Tristram Lansdowne “Entropical Paradise” @ LE Gallery
Tuesday, December 1st, 2009
AM had the pleasure of attending Tristram Lansdowne’s opening of “Entropical Paradise” at Toronto’s LE Gallery. The space was filled with curious art fans looking to catch a glimpse of Tristram’s work. After our studio visit and creative process feature with the young artist, we knew that we were in for a treat. Even with high expectations, what we saw was even a bit more than we expected. Tristram’s detailed watercolors were simply outstanding, safe to say even better than pictures can convey.
One of the highlights was a “reverse periscope sculpture” he created which allowed you to see underground to a 360 panoramic painting in which you needed to spin the piece around to fully comprehend the image. Some of T-Dot’s finest were out for the opening including Tessar Lo, Brian Donnelly, Martha Chan, and Simon Cole of Show and Tell Gallery. If you’re fortunate to be in Toronto before December 20th be sure to stop by and see this show.
