From June 13 to July 14, the NEC will host Dancing on my Own, self-portraits by Winlaw artist-Ann Swanson Gross, as well as fine photographs by Cameron Mathieson of Nelson. Mathieson studied photogra- phy under Randy Bradley at the Vancouver School of Art in the late 1970s and later under Hu Hohn at the Banff Centre for the Arts (where he later worked as a teaching assistant). He’s shown his work widely in B.C. since the early 1980s and has been included in the collection of the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography. In the new NEC show, the content of Mathieson’s color photographs is wilderness. North American culture, he feels, “has yet to understand the wisdom or profundity that lies in the richness and sanctity of a wild landscape and what it can hor for mind in its origi- te and vice versa,” he . People can “find them- selves in the land.” While a few photos communi- cate some of the destruction that is taking place in wilder- ness areas, for the most part Mathieson brings the lyrical approach of a painter to his interpretations of wilderness forms. Swanson Gross, who lives in the Slocan Valley, received her fine-art training at the Kootenay School of Art in Nelson in the late 1960s. She went on to teach art in Queen Charlotte City, B.C., and to apply her artistic abilities as a museum technician, from 1971 to 1977, at the Royal British Columbia Museum in Victoria. Since her return to the West Kootenay, she has operated a gallery and sold her work in Winlaw. Her work has also shown in exhibitions throughout B.C. Swanson Gross’s work is very strong, and part of its unique- ness lies in her unusual tech- nique. She works with fibre-tipped watercolor pens on watercolor paper. “I have been criticized for cre- ating work that is too personal, but I don’t know any other type of art,” she says. “My paintings are seldom traditionally pretty pictures.” Rather than featuring wilder- ness as literal ecosystem, Swanson Gross focuses on the “wilds” of the human heart. The current NEC exhibit will consist of self-portraits, ranging in scale from small to large. “I put so much of me in my art,” she says. “I am continually amazed people what to take it into their homes and live with it.” The public is invited to attend an opening reception, starting at 7 p.m. on June 13, to meet the artists and view their work. The National Exhibition Centre is located across from the Castlegar, Airport. The NEC's hours are from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and noon to 4:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. COOLING OFF oe (CasNews photo by Ed Mills A youngster breaks open a Mr. Freeze as the temperature starts to climb during Sunfest's Family Day last weekend at Kinnaird Park. College increases ‘trout numbers The giant Gerrard trd@st population of Lower Arrow Lake was enhanced by nearly 1,000 fish May 11 when Bob Dooley, a biology instructor at Selkirk College, released this year’s crop of college-reared fish at Deer Creek. Students in the college’s biology classes and wildland recreation program have been rearing Gerrard trout fry in two.concrete pools at the Castlegar campus for the past four years. The fry are obtained from the government hatchery at Wardner. Last October, when the fry were introduced into the col- lege rearing pools, they weighed only four grams and were five to eight centimetres in length. During the winter, they are nurtured by students and their growth rate is carefully monitored, the college said in @ news release. The fish Dooley released had more than quadrupled their weight and were up to 18 centimetres long. “They stand a better than average chance of survival when they are released at that size,” Dooley said.
