Another August, another Square Foot show at AWOL Gallery (76 & 78 Ossington). Square Foot IV (as in Roman numeral four…not EyeVee) features (feet-sures is the more appropriate spelling) 12×12” works from over 450 Canadian and international artists of the emerging and established varieties; if our calculations are correct, that adds up to a whole lot of 90 degree angles. The pieces will be arranged into a grid from wall to wall and from floor to ceiling throughout the downstairs and upstairs rooms of the gallery. Each arty square is being sold for $200 (it ain’t no Honest Ed’s but it sure is a real bargain). The show opens tomorrow (August 4) at noon and the reception will be held at 6pm in the evening. The lovely arrangement of square feet will be hanging at AWOL until August 27. Gallery hours are Thurs-Sat 12-6pm, Sunday 1-5pm, or by appointment. Go go go go go check out the feet! They don’t smell bad.
