Instigators

Instigators by Guillermo Trejo will feature a series of posters depicting quotes from Nietzsche, Camus, Sartre, Kerouac, Buda, and others paired with iconic images from protest and social resistance. The result of the combination is an uncannily appropriate protest poster as if the quotes and the images were initially planned to be together.

Guillermo Trejo is a Mexican-born artist who now resides in Ottawa, ON. He has a BFA from Bellas Arts School of Painting, Sculpture and Printmaking and an MFA from The University of Ottawa. Trejo is a consultant at the National Gallery of Canada, and teaches at the Ottawa School of Art.

Opening Reception: Friday, February 3, 7-9 pm.
