First Nations / Second Nature
February 6–March 20, 2010

The inaugural exhibition in the new Audain Project Gallery at SFU Woodwards is First Nations / Second Nature, curated by Candice Hopkins. With its roots in the local history of Vancouver, First Nations / Second Nature is built of works which mediate the politics of site and the shifting conceptions of territory.

The works, from local, national as well as international artists, together offer divergent engagements with the politics of site from the national to the local as it is defined by First Nation's conceptions of place and territory.

Artists include Rebecca Belmore, Matthew Buckingham, Greg Curnoe, Sam Durant, Jimmie Durham, Andrea Geyer, Cheryl L’Hirondelle and Andrew Lee, Brian Jungen and Patricia Reed.

Date: February 6–March 20, 2010   |   Tuesday–Saturday   2 pm–8 pm

Opening: February 6, 2010 at 7 pm

Location: Audain Gallery, SFU Woodward's
