SUMMARY:Visual Arts Open Lecture Series: Mackenzie Kelly-Frère
DESCRIPTION:Location: Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Bldg\, 204\n\nJoin us for an afternoon Visual Arts Open Lecture with contemporary artist MacKenzie Kelly-Frère\, who creates breathtaking sculptural and installation works.\n\nAs a contemporary artist working with place-based approaches to weaving\, Kelly-Frère is fascinated by the myriad ways that cloth entangles cultures\, histories\, and technologies. In this Summer Banff Artist in Residence (BAiR) faculty talk\, Kelly-Frère will discuss plant and material fibres\, and their application in a new body of work exploring the ecology of the prairies and foothills regions.\n\nOpen to visual artists working across mediums\, Summer BAiR combines the freedom of a self-directed residency with the supportive benefits of an organized program. As well as receiving the space to create\, research\, and experiment\, participants are part of an international community of contemporary artists committed to developing and expanding their practice.  \n\nThis event is part of the Visual Arts Open Lecture Series\, which presents talks by leading Canadian and international artists\, curators\, and academics.\n\nVisual Arts is supported by Fondation DRG and the Gail and Stephen A. Jarislowsky Outstanding Artist Program.\n\nBanff Centre for Arts and Creativity is excited to bring together world-renowned musicians\, artists\, and writers\, as well as passionate audiences for the 2026 Banff Centre Summer Arts Festival.
