CHEYANNE TURIONS

Gallery TPW, in partnership with the Images Festival, is excited to welcome cheyanne turions as our 2010-2011 Curatorial Resident. Over the course of the year cheyanne will be engaged in research and programming culminating in exhibition and screening presentations at both TPW and Images.

Recently relocating from Vancouver to Toronto, cheyanne is an independent writer, programmer and curator with formal training in philosophy. Conceptualizing curation and criticism as social gestures, cheyanne's goal is to engage audiences in a discussion of the cultural, political and theoretical conditions that have informed the production artworks, thereby creating a forum for critical analysis. cheyanne is regularly reflecting on her research process and documenting her curiosities online; visit her website often.

The Curator in Residence position is financially supported by the Canada Council for the Arts: Assistance to Aboriginal Curators in Residence program.
