“Bleed the Walls of Paint”

Beginning May 28th 2006 :: Paintings by Mitchell F. Chan at The Manx Pub on Elgin Street, Ottawa.

+ Given the poor lighting conditions Chan's richly textured paintings prevailed with the thoughtful articulation of highly abstract and spatially diverse canvases. This series - which is also showing at the Pilot (Toronto) until June 15th – borrows from a similar colour palette of dark-red hues to enable Chan and his viewers to explore and interpret at different scales; the various forms and narratives latent within each painting.

(Da Vinci's code) :: *click* *buzz* *ring* ?

Amongst a myriad of cell phone and digital cameras the Mona Lisa surrenders itself to an ambitious crowd which stands just a few feet away from the lesser known paintings of Raphael, Giuseppe Arcimboldo, and other da Vinci art work!
