at McLaughlin gallery "Windows arid Doorways" continues to July 29th, 1979 ai The Robert McLaughlin Gallery, Gallery, Oshawa. Windows and doorways are apertures or openings into walls or buildings. Val Clery, the author of Windows and its • companion volume, Doors (Macmillan of Canada, 1978) suggests that windows are our "oldest, simplest and most direct" media of communication communication (barring language). language). , Women artists today are using these images in a variety of different ways. Some like Denise Therrien, are actually making stained glass windows - but with a difference. These hanging "light active sculptures" are for inside living spaces. She stresses in her work the interaction of light on, and through, different textures and materials .within a symbolic symbolic context. Susan Scott makes window dioramas, which reflect the urban landscape landscape of New York City where she lives. The scenes which occur behind these boxes, iriade out of real window frgmes, are narrative, narrative, yet personal. She uses a variety of materials - paper, fabric, tinsel? etc. whatever she feels will best render the mood of each box. The viewer must look into the window and thus participate with the work, which Scott feels makes a more accessible art form. Victoria Walker sees windows and doorways as similar to arches and by extension to rainbows. For her, these forms are symbols of transformation. The important important feature for Walker is her • mental and physical passage through these frameworks: frameworks: through such doorways doorways occurs the growth of the individual and the corresponding corresponding change in consciousness.' In this decade, women are everywhere experiencing changes. An exhibition like Windows and Doorways may assist in orienting the viewer to these artists' new points of view in regarding what are actually archetypal forms. A catalogue of this exhibition exhibition is available at the Gallery.
