Strange Vacation: Craig Love In Conversation
Saturday, 13 June 2026, 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM
Online Webinar
Our visit with Craig Love will be exclusively online as a webinar.
We are very excited for Craig Love’s current solo show at the gallery, his first at MGG. The team at MGG met Love this past summer on a trip to Winnipeg.
Tragically, Love was one of the artists who lost his entire history of artworks in the infamous studio warehouse fire in 2019. Now in a concrete studio building, Love has reignited his passion for painting. During our studio visit the team at MGG was drawn into his richly layered paintings, their exploration of space, the familiar yet not so familiar imagery and the animated colour.
Intuitively painted over long periods of time, Love draws from wide-ranging interests in language, poetry, philosophy, culture and art history, thinking in both words as well as images. They are paintings with a capital P; paintings that reward the act of looking and engage in the curious among us.
