Arts & Culture

There are plenty of ways to celebrate 75 years of music-making with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra this weekend.

For more than 50 years, Winnipeg-based artist Jordan van Sewell has been creating sculptures that reflect the world around him as seen through his own quirky, thought-provoking and, often, humorous lens.  

His sculptures have been sold around the world and can be seen in some of the most prestigious galleries and private collections.  

On Saturday, May 13, the Pulse Gallery in the Johnston Terminal at the Forks, unveils the latest collection from this artistic icon.  

After 20 years of seeing each other at a number of different art shows, four women have become friends and banded together to show their work as one group.

Ida Mackenzie, Jo Smoley, Winona Kling and Judy Sutton first met at the Art Rocks art show in East St. Paul. Since then, they have seen each other at other shows and through art groups getting to know each other, complimenting one another on their art and forming a solid friendship.

Most of them started getting involved with art when they were children or teenagers, each having practiced in many mediums.

Prepare to be spellbound by the haunting voices of Esprit de choeur.
