Photos from The Pinky Show: Class Treason Stories (excerpts)

We would like to send a shout out and thanks to everyone who joined us to celebrate the launch of The Pinky Show's exhibit at Gallery 1C03, The Pinky Show: Class Treason Stories (excerpts). Thanks also to all who came out for the talks that followed, both at the University of Winnipeg and aceartinc. The reception and artist talks were very well attended, and we were thrilled by some of the 'critical discourse'-oriented conversations that were spurred by the exhibit.
One of our visiting Human Representatives of the Pinky Show gave an excellent structuralist analysis of the education system, in a discussion prompted by some of Pinky's thoughts on the subject from the Pinky Show video "Scary School Nightmare." This video, as well as numerous other Pinky vids can be viewed at : www.PinkyShow.org.

You can also satisfy your Pinky urges by checking out Lynette McLarty's article for the Uniter!

Please find below some photos taken at the opening reception, and at the artist's talk at the University of Winnipeg.


A full selection of photos is available via our Facebook page, which is open to all comers :)
