The CALL AND RESPONSE project engages two creative communities in a year-long exchange of images and words. Artists showing work in the Red Wall Gallery will have their photographic statements poetically responded to by writers curated by rob mclennan.

This interaction can be experienced as poetry and images come together in the Red Wall Gallery for the duration of each exhibition. There will also be scheduled readings, and a poem/image card for each pairing, as well as the inclusion of selected images and poems in the next edition of Push/Pull magazine.

The Red Wall Gallery is located in SPAO at 168 Dalhousie, at the corner of Bruyère, in the Byward Market. Viewing/reading hours are from Monday to Friday 10:00 -18:00, and Saturdays from 10:00-15:00.

For more info contact: 613.562.3824 or info@spao.ca

Save the Date!
The Call and Response project will culminate on Friday, June 22nd, 2012 with a Reading/Slideshow at SPAO. Participating poets will read their works accompanied by a slideshow of the images that inspired them.
