Toronto art galleries At that time there were only about six galleries catering to the serious art en thusiast Today Toronto has art galleries not counting the reproduction and poster shops that have such a vogue with people who want something nice but are not knowledgeable enough to find something that is not yet famous Right now we have sbt art galleries in Georgetown alone and a few more in nearby Terra Cotta If you have an afternoon to spare you could visit all them and in some of them you would encounter the exhibitions I want to write about in this column Lets go first to the gallery of the Halton Hills Library and Cultural Centre in Georgetown Oct was the opening of the annual juried showcase of Halton artists called Here and Now The exhibition continues to Oct 29 and is well worth a visit The jury of three pro fessional artists selected five ar tists for awards of merit and six further artists for honorable men tions These singled out works are of a very high standard and the others are hardly any worse Look ing at this exhibition I realized that nowhere in this town right now could you spend your money for anything better without having to pay a lot more Just a few minutes walk from the cultural centre is the new Camp bell House Gallery that has opened its second exhibition a few days ago Its a oneartist show with by Claude Chalifour an artist from Quebec City who seems to live most of the time in Mexico Claude Chalifours sub jects are girls at the threshold to adulthood They are depicted in these handsomely framed pain tings in costumes and disguises fit for a masquerade The backgrounds in almost all of them are pure fantasy the glamorous and libidinous imaginings of late childhood A mock innocence per vades these paintings They reminded me of the works of Count Balthazar Klossowski de Rola who is known in the as a painter of disturbingly selfabsorbed The Forge Studio Gallery in Terra Cotta calls its present ex hibition to Oct 29 Autumn Celebration and it certainly is that The walls are hung with the truly glorious paintings of Margaret Squire from Streetsville Her paintings depict natures eddies and currents that propel growth On the white paper color notations appear and come together like magnetized steel fil ings The retinal sensations we ac tually experience when we walk in a landscape are recorded pure sharp and direct without sen timentality Two potters show their pieces in front of these pain tings One of them is Agnes Olive who has her studio in the Forge She is a raku potter of distinction a great artist whose grave dark creations are a must for every col lector of pottery The other potter is Scott whose work is in contrast to Agnes very colorful and exuberant His blues and dark reds are reverberating in ones memory and the size of his huge bowls is just right for a fabulous punch The last in the group is Michael Olive Agnes son He is a budding glass artist and his pieces are very nicely worked out Is anybody collecting scent bottles Get one of Michaels They are treasures Back to Georgetown to Pictures and Presents on Main Street where the Belgian painter Carl had dropped in last Saturday on a promotional tour of his wildlife reproductions He is one of the biggest names in wildlife painting and with reason His is surface painting of the best kind Nature is rendered with immense care down to the smallest detail The small boned white haired man with the lively intelligent eyes ex plains his working method I take my own photographs of animals of trees of rocks I work from them taking a part of this one a detail of that one I start the pain ting in transparent and finish the fine details in gouache opaque watercolor It takes me about a month to do one of my works And there they are in a small room by themselves several of his superb originals vivid glowing alive The reproductions by com parison look like all reproductions everywhere limited or not but they come a lot cheaper than the originals and that does make a dif ference RECYCLING wit an- parti Please Remember Recycle This Newspaper DAY CARE Programs for children up Nutritious meals Ample inside and outside facilities to
