AGG Fall Season Launch 2025

Price Free

Join us Thursday, September 18 at 6:30 pm for the launch of the Art Gallery of Guelph’s fall exhibitions: Unsettling Conservation Collective: Reworldings, curated by Alexandra Nordstrom, and Soft Internet Theory, curated by Tristan Sauer, winner of the 2025 Middlebrook Prize for Young Canadian Curators. Both projects critique and reimagine the conditions shaping our present moment.

Rooted in Indigenous knowledge and collaborative practice, Reworldings features Glenn Gear, Melaw Nakehk’o, Sheri Osden Nault, Adrian Stimson, and Michelle Wilson, whose work reimagines how Land and Water are valued and protected, foregrounding relationships of care, respect, responsibility, and reciprocity often obscured by settler colonial conservation frameworks.

In Soft Internet Theory, Devlin Macpherson, Shihab Mian, Laura Moore, Marisa Müsing, and Matt Nish Lapidus use net art, sculpture, video, and textile to explore technology with empathy, envisioning a softer, more human digital future rooted in connection, pushing back against the isolation and automation central to dead internet theory.

Artists and curators will be in attendance. All are welcome—refreshments will be served; cash bar.
