SUMMARY:Sarah Sproule: A Restless Spectre
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to be haunted? To imagine ghosts and other entities\, or to be part of the haunting yourself? To be in a placeless place\, separate from the world\, and yet firmly ensnared in its gravity? A Restless Spectre\, is a heterotopia; a simultaneous construction and deconstruction of domestic space\, a haunt\, where queer\, disabled\, and fat bodies find themselves welcome\, invited in. \nArtist Sarah Sproule works primarily in the casting and mould-making process\, utilizing plaster\, clay\, and found objects to create dimensional images of abstracted bodies – exploring wider ideas of otherness and the body through the lens of queerness\, disability\, fat politics and the intersections that exist between them. \nWhat are Heterotopia’s? First used in the text The Order of Things (1966) by Philosopher Michel Foucault\, Heterotopia is a term used to describe spaces (think: homes\, for example) that create a sense of otherness by both mirroring and inverting the world around them.

SUMMARY:The Exhibitionists Take AWE
DESCRIPTION:The Exhibitionists is a fluidly organized collective of figurative woman artists. While individual exhibitionists move in and out of the group\, their shared focus remains the same: how to authentically capture the contemporary experience of being a woman by disrupting and expanding the nude tradition. \nArt Windsor Essex has a collection of roughly 4\,000 works of art\, but fewer than 20% of those works are made by women. The Exhibitionists\, who mostly came of age in the 1960s and 1970s\, are almost the same age as AWE\, which began as the Willistead Art Gallery of Windsor in 1943. As the Exhibitionists studied art and began their careers\, AWE’s holdings were growing alongside them. But here\, as elsewhere\, as these artists gained confidence and grew in their practices\, AWE was still not seriously collecting women artists. \nFor The Exhibitionists\, the female body is a contested site of power and celebration\, of play and vulnerability. Chappus\, Collins\, Draisey and Renaud Fisher have selected work from AWE’s collection that reveals the institution’s strengths and gaps. They have placed their work and the work of other Exhibitionists alongside AWE’s collection to reveal what’s possible when we centre equity and bravery in our collecting choices.

SUMMARY:Christian Chapman: Run to the Hills!
DESCRIPTION:Christian Chapman\, an Anishinaabe artist from Fort William First Nation in Ontario\, has always cherished and attended to stories\, admiring their depth\, elusiveness\, the ways they carry meaning\, and how storytellers in his family — young and old — could uniquely animate their being. These stories warmly anchored him in Anishinaabe traditions from the north shore of Lake Superior\, stretching back to times before his own. He would listen\, carefully attentive\, beaming with his own curiosity. For Chapman\, these stories are treasures\, sources of inspiration and influence that travel with him into the shifting imaginary of Anishinaabe storytelling. \nRun to the Hills! spotlights Chapman’s gift as a storyteller who\, like relatives before him\, finds his own way of being in conversation with ancestral oral traditions. Using painting\, printmaking\, and other mixed media techniques\, he forms a new graphic language for narrative expression that still carries old-timey sensibilities. \nIn his work\, you’ll find elements of Anishinaabeg humour in the mundane and small moments of daily life\, alongside the deeper political undercurrents that tug at its edges. This situates his practice in a new liminal zone where identities merge\, and stories intersect—sometimes grounded in Anishinaabe Aki\, other times wandering in from the magical world of Disney. He experiments with text\, image\, and visual juxtapositions\, sometimes offering up pointed themes\, other times leaving space for more to be imagined. \nThrough these playful encounters\, he builds a new arbour for Indigenous audiences\, a space where the subtle humour of Indigenous experience and familiar symbols of popular culture coexist seamlessly. Viewers are gently invited into this realm\, which opens with sharp yet recognizable crossings\, showing how the lines between these connected worlds are always changing. \nChapman draws on the styles of visual art icons\, Woodland School\, Mishomis Norval Morrisseau and the American Pop artist Andy Warhol\, bending them through his own unique lens. With profound affection for Anishinaabe story forms from where the North Shore sleeps\, his reinterpretations are brave\, inventive and cheeky. Bounded perpetually to every storyteller in his family preceding him. By bringing in belly laughs\, mischief\, and critical analysis\, Chapman keeps the Woodland style’s pull alive for the next wave of Anishinaabe makers. \nThe exhibit’s name\, Run to the Hills! nods to Iron Maiden’s hit track and references Chapman’s 2017 print\, Fight for Your Life. The song\, widely known and belted outby Native uncles across Turtle Island\, serves as a rallying cry for Indigenous empowerment and grit. Chapman harnesses these forces throughout his practice\, honouring the timeless defiance that lives on across generations — much like old stories — while always leaving room for laughter to sneak in.

SUMMARY:Sameer Farooq: The Fairest Order in the World
DESCRIPTION:Cape Breton born\, Toronto based artist Sameer Farooq presents a solo exhibition that offers a deeply poetic space to reflect on the fraught and violent histories of art and anthropological museums\, their colonial origins\, structures\, and impulses. \nWith The Fairest Order in the World\, Farooq probes notions of provenance\, repatriation\, and repair\, composing a series of new and recent sculptures and images to articulate unique ideas for repurposing the emptied spaces of museums devoid of their spoils. Mining the possibilities offered by sustained engagement\, Farooq invites us to envision what the museum might become through the mechanics of restitution\, what it may shift to collect and document\, and what kind of experiences it could nurture. \nThe installation elicits prolonged attention\, asking visitors to look intently and to spend time with the objects\, contemplating their physical and emotional presence as well as the absences they evoke. The artworks may serve as tools for meditation\, revealing a deeper potential that transcends their aesthetic value. An audio environment composed by Farooq’s collaborator Gabie Strong (Los Angeles\, CA) sets a deliberately slow pace\, encouraging six-minute intervals at each vantage point. Lyrical texts contributed by poet Jared Stanley (Reno\, NV) unsettle the rigid format of institutional labels and imagine the objects’ own voices. Farooq’s film produced in collaboration with Mirjam Linschooten (Amsterdam\, NL)\, The Museum Visits a Therapist\, offers a reflection on trauma and recovery\, personifying the museum and imagining therapeutic strategies for healing historic wounds. \nThe exhibition takes its title from a text fragment of Ancient Greek philosopher Heraclitus: “The fairest order in the world is a heap of random sweepings.” Contained in this duality of opposites is the idea that the most organized and just attempt at a universal order is equally as flawed or filled with balance and beauty as an arbitrary pile of refuse. Considering this paradox\, Farooq’s meticulously choreographed assembly invites us to interrogate our relationship with art objects and museum displays\, as well as the ordering narratives they uphold. \nOrganized and circulated by Dalhousie Art Gallery.

SUMMARY:An Echo of the Soul by Barry T. Brodie
DESCRIPTION:Barry T. Brodie & Post Productions present An Echo of the Soul: Tchaikovsky and His Women \nAfter a successful run at the Masonic Temple Ballroom earlier this year\, writer and director Barry T. Brodie will remount his latest theatrical vision\, An Echo of the Soul: Tchaikovsky and His Women\, at The Shadowbox Theatre this June. \nAn Echo of the Soul tells the story of Russian composer Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and the two women who changed the course of his life: his patroness of 17 years\, Nadezhda von Meck\, whose financial support was conditioned solely on their never meeting face to face\, and his former student\, Antonina Milyukova\, whom he married in the hopes that it would cover up his homosexuality and mollify his family and colleagues. The one blossomed into a deep\, intimate friendship through their correspondence; the other swirled into a disastrous nightmare hovering in the background of what became a stellar career. An Echo of the Soul reveals Tchaikovsky’s creative process alongside his personal struggle while composing his Fourth Symphony. \nStarring Heath Camlis as Piotr Tchaikovsky\, Cindy Pastorius as Nadezhda von Meck\, and Shayla Hudson as Antonina Milyukova. \nWHEN: June 19\, 20\, 25\, 26 & 27\, 2026 @ 7:30 PM (doors open 7:00).

Board of Directors\, the Friends of Willistead\, and more for the grand opening\, ribbon-cutting\, and free tours of the newly expanded Coach House Historical Exhibition. \nThrough the exhibition\, guests are invited to learn about the history of Hiram Walker\, the Walker business and community impacts\, the formation of Walkerville\, Edward and Mary Walker\, the construction and uses of Willistead Manor\, and more. The exhibition was designed by Chris Renaud and the team at HCA Mindbox and supported by generous funding through the Charleigh Charitable Trust\, the Walker descendants\, Willistead Manor Inc.\, the Friends of Willistead\, and the City of Windsor. Video footage playing in the exhibit space is provided by the documentary Walkerville’s Willistead Manor: The Home that Shaped a Community. \nArt Jahns\, the late Canadian Club Brand Centre archivist\, long-time employee of Hiram Walker & Sons\, and long-time member of the Willistead Manor Inc. Board of Directors\, spent a lifetime assembling and curating a diverse and storied collection of artifacts\, artworks\, correspondence\, keepsakes\, photographs\, and more that rounds out some of the compelling aspects of the stories of Hiram Walker\, Canadian Club\, and the region’s proud whisky distilling history. In 2025\, Karyn Templin and Christine Malott\, the daughters of Art Jahns\, worked with Mayor Dilkens to donate their father’s collection to the City of Windsor. The significant donation will now form the basis of a major expansion to the existing Coach House Historical Exhibition. \nThe scope of work has included uncovering and restoring original portions of the ceiling and terrazzo flooring throughout the Coach House\, restoring and enhancing the main floor of the building\, designing and installing an entirely new exhibition room to showcase the items from the Estate of Art Jahns\, and restoration work on the second floor to create additional artifact storage space for Museum Windsor’s growing collection. The original exhibition and restoration work at the Coach House earned the prestigious 2025 Kulisek Prize from the Department of History at the University of Windsor\, recognizing the significant efforts to preserve and share local history.
