LIBBY HAGUE | BRAVE INTERVENTIONS Sarturday afternoons, 1:00pm-3:00pm As part of the YYreZidency program, Libby Hague has curated several interventions and performances to take place in her interactive installation Be Brave! We are in this together; we anticipate the super-energy combo of sculptural drama and live human performance. The interventions are scheduled for Saturday afternoons from 1:00pm-3:00pm, with open rehearsals happening any time during regular gallery hours. A variety of documentation will be made and presented as a small video series through the social media outlet YouTube. Every exhibition can provide a formal clarity and distance, which furthers self- understanding. Interventions are distancing filters, which connect us to another creative mind in the short window of our availability. The format layers rather than blends ideas so that each contributing flavour stays visible, distinct, and delicious. -Libby Hague SCHEDULE: MAY 26 | PHILIP ANISMAN: A READING FROM INFINITE JEST BY DAVID FOSTER WALLACE Philip Anisman practices law, mainly securities law, in Toronto most of the time- and has written legal books,, articles, and op-eds.
