Gallery closure and blog resumption



To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, The University of Winnipeg has suspended all in-person classes and closed all non-essential services.

Gallery 1C03 is therefore closed until further notice.

Our current exhibition Alootook Ipellie: Walking Both Sides of an Invisible Border is closed, and its affiliated programming events -- poetry reading, panel discussion and reception -- have been cancelled. We may re-schedule the poetry reading and panel discussion for a future date and will keep you informed as information becomes available.

In the meantime, we are re-activating this blog to help you learn more about Alootook Ipellie and his work. We will be sharing images and interpretive materials from the exhibition along with supplementary reference materials and our own interpretations and analyses. You can expect to read a new post written by Gallery 1C03 staff every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, starting today.


We will begin the next post with an introduction to the artist and some context for the exhibition.
