1. Walking Life

The Gladstone Hotel, Toronto

September 5 - 4 October, 2007

VoCA applauds the curators of Walking Life, an exhibition celebrating the experience of walking - for their press release:

“The goals for Walking Life are by no means profound….We’???d like to inspire people to reclaim (aka: use!) the sidewalks as public space. We???d like to inspire people to think about the pedestrian experience. And, we???d like people to contemplate the environments in which they walk…the creative process has been known to stimulate contemplation, interesting discussion and even innovation.”

The exhibition serves as a prelude to the International Walk 21 Conference, which will take place in Toronto from October 1 - 4.

The country’s hottest (and sweatiest) public art movement, the Movement Movement runs through art institutions. They have run the Royal Ontario Museum and the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art, and have plans to continue their Canadian Art Tour and, next year, the Ontario Art Marathon.
