Earlier this evening I strolled down to 19 Tory Street with my friend Bryce Galloway to check out the opening of artist (and Massey graduate) Georgette Brown's exhibition entitled Vibrating Room. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the show (mostly drawings and paintings) that remixed a wide range of different aesthetic influences, among them: Postimpressionism, Fauvism, psychedelic posters, outsider art, tattoo designs, underground comix, children's book illustrations, fantasy art, mythology, and tantric diagrams. On the way out I purchased a copy of Georgette's handsome full-colour illustrated zine entitled Vibrations, Vol. 1: Green Magic. On view through 11 June.
