Public Realm
An exhibition curated by Christopher Hume

January 20-31, 2010

Propeller Centre for the Visual Arts
984 Queen Street West, Toronto

Wed/Sat 12-6 p.m.
Sunday 12-5 p.m.

Propeller Centre for the Visual Arts’ annual curated exhibition for 2009/10 is an exhibition of ideas and art work that respond to the public realm. Christopher Hume, the architecture critic and urban issues columnist of the Toronto Star has posed the challenge, to artists and urbanists, to re-imagine and break the rules that deserve to be broken in the spaces in which we live, work and play. He has asked that, what we have always accepted in the public realm, be re-examined and re-animated.

In a wide range of approaches, Public Realm proposes the rethinking and use of the myriad areas of urban life, from buildings and open spaces, to street furniture.
