ESPLANADE Arts & Heritage Centre

...

For many years, Cenovus was delighted to support the Esplanade and their Educational Programming, which aims to enrich children’s learning experience through arts and culture. Learning is one of the main areas where we concentrate our community investment activities. As we have now sold our conventional oil and natural gas assets in southern Alberta and in Saskatchewan, our presence in Medicine Hat and other communities in the area is coming to an end. We would like to thank Medicine Hat and the Esplanade for their continuous support through the years and hope our engagement has made a positive impact.

While most kids can’t wait for recess so they can hit the playground, anxious Nicky would rather spend her time safely hidden away in the school’s sick room with her Big Book of Birds.

Internationally renowned Edmonton printmaker Sean Caulfield conjures the dark trauma of destruction as well as the potential for regeneration in his carved wood sculpture and relief mural works. Exposing the processes behind his woodcut, mezzotint and linocut prints, these new works are powerfully moving and monumental in scale.

THE FLOOD AND OTHER WORKSSean Caulfield

Tapestry by artist-makers rather than artist-designers, is rare in a time of instantaneity and the global outsourcing of skilled labour tasks. These fascinating tapestry works by Ann Newdigate, Jane Kidd and Murray Gibson raise provocative and pertinent questions about the use of traditional skills, changing perceptions of time, and how tapestry as a seemingly anachronistic practice is relevant as contemporary art.
