In The Red: Creation From DeficitThis
Alberta Craft Council exhibit explores the impact of Albertas recent budgetary cuts on an artists ability to create. It runs from April 2 to July 5, 2011.
In the Red: creation from deficit invited Alberta craft artists to create their own craft-based and written reactions to arts funding cuts. The responses from artists were overwhelming; from tongue-in-cheek to screaming-mad to oh-so-sad. Collectively these pieces express a wide range of opinions and emotions about the state and future of the arts in Alberta.
