Humour acts as a corrective, as a balm, as a way of softening unpleasant truths and assuaging fears. This exhibition brings together Canadian and international emerging, mid-career and senior artists from across artistic disciplines and cultural backgrounds, whose work explores the relationship between the tragic, and the comic. This large-scale exhibition will occupy both Central and Sherwood Galleries, with additional work in Dunlop&#8217;s Mediatheque, on the fa\u00c3\u0192\u00c2\u00a7ades of both Central and Sherwood Village Libraries, and at offsite performance venues.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tragedy Plus Time Sherwood Gallery June 20 &#8211; August 27, 2014 Central Gallery and Mediatheque July 4 &#8211; August 27, 2014 Sonny Assu, BGL, Michel de Broin, Jason Cawood, Mark Clintberg, Troy Coulterman, Robyn Cumming, Thirza Cuthand, Keren Cytter, Kim Dorland, Emily Vey Duke and Cooper Battersby, Erica Eyres, Hannah Jickling and Helen Reed, Alison&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/tragedy-plus-time-exhibition-and-performance-at-dunlop-gallery\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Tragedy Plus Time exhibition and performance at Dunlop Gallery<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1214","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1214","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1214"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1214\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1219,"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1214\/revisions\/1219"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1214"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1214"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asmk.ca\/WP\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1214"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
