SUMMARY:Gallery Reception: Rebus Plates for our Times/Assiettes Rebus pour temps qui Courent
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Reception: Rebus Plates for our Times/Assiettes Rebus pour temps qui Courent\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nAlberta Craft Gallery – Level 2\nApril 11\, 2026\n1:00 PM – 4:00 PM\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Alberta Craft Council and Alliance Française at cSPACE for an afternoon of art\, ideas\, and community with Rebus Plates for Our Times / Assiettes Rébus pour Les Temps Qui Courent. \nBegin your visit on Level 4 in the RGO Treehouse with a thought-provoking craft talk\, Pictorial Puns: Rebus Plates for Our Times\, presented by craft historian Dr. Jennifer Salahub. This engaging talk explores the rich history of rebus imagery—visual riddles that combine pictures and letters to convey layered meanings—and their evolution from 19th-century French ceramic traditions into contemporary artistic practice. \nFollowing the talk\, head down to the Alberta Craft Gallery on Level 2 for the artist reception\, where you can experience the exhibition firsthand and connect with the work in a welcoming\, social setting. \nRooted in a historical tradition popularized by makers such as the Faïencerie de Gien in France\, rebus plates once conveyed everything from moral lessons to political commentary. This contemporary exhibition revisits and reimagines that form\, offering fresh perspectives on the complexities of our current moment. \nFeaturing work by Montréal-born\, Calgary-based artist and Professor Emerita Mireille Perron—founder of the Laboratory of Feminist Pataphysics—this exhibition reflects a playful yet critical approach to art\, craft\, and social discourse. \nWe’re proud to host this free\, public event at cSPACE. Everyone is welcome to attend and experience the creativity and conversation unfolding within our community. \nThis exhibition is generously supported by Alliance Française. \n\nRSVP Online \n\nSCHEDULE: \n\n\n Craft Talk – 1:00 PM- 2:00 PM: Pictorial Puns: Rebus Plates for Our Times Talk with Dr. Jennifer Salahub\, Craft Historian\, RGO Treehouse 4th floor\, cSPACE\nArtist Reception – 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM: Alberta Craft Calgary\, 2nd floor\, cSPACE\n\nFree | Everyone Welcome
