The exhibition features works from the publication as well as additional pieces chosen by Garneau. 'Dark Chapters' offers myriad ways to investigate how the written word can implicate, illuminate, and interpret artworks.'Dark Chapters' opens on Friday, March 21 at 7pm featuring an artist talk with Garneau and essay contributor Fred Wah. This event is free and open to the public.
