Urban Nature
Nature, within the urban context, is mediated in many ways. This group exhibition explores the complexities that exist between nature and the urban environment. Using the tradition of printmaking in sculptural compositions, eighteen artists selected from the Open Studio Print Sales Gallery address the intricate and constructed relationship of nature and the city. On display until May 30.
Location: Malton Airport Gallery. Level 2, above Canada Arrivals (pre-security)

Alex Beker
City Views features the works of Catherine Beaudette and Alex Beker. The exhibition, running until May 31, 2012, depicts city life in a unique and creative fashion.
Argentina-born graphic designer, art director and photographer, Alex Beker shares his images on the walls of Toronto Pearson. Each day, he takes a photo and publishes it on his blog called Things I Saw Today. Beker does not seek out dramatic scenes – he challenges himself to look for what often is unseen or ignored.
