Strolling around the Tashiro Kaplan Building last night, here are a few of the exhibits I visited. First Thursday takes place every month in Pioneer Square, between about 5 or 6 p.m. and 8 or 9 p.m.
One of Deborah Butterfield's gorgeous, imposing, cast wood, bronze horses at Greg Kucera(above). There's a lovely blue horse in the back gallery made from reclaimed radiant heating pipe, the copper all bent and banged.
And at G. Gibson, a series of photographs by Jim Riswold, Damien Hirst-inspired presents under a Christmas tree, wrapped in what looks like one of Hirst's dot paintings.
At the Design Commission, one wall of letterpress works, with this perfect poem by John Ashbery, a print by Paul Hunter of Woodworks Press.
At SOIL, what look to be Styrofoam building materials, and a mysterious block on the floor (more about this to come in print) by Vancouver artist Scott Bowering.
