The revolution starts here, but it doesn't always end

The exhibition titled The Work Ahead of Us by Memphis-born, Montreal-based artist Grier Edmundson is a diverse mix of mediums, styles and subjects. There is an oil painting of Thomas Paine, one of the founding fathers of the United States. There is also a painting of the Concorde, the supersonic airplane that flew from 1969 to 2003, and two paintings of Ronan Point, a 23-storey apartment tower outside London that was part of the trend in the 1960s to provide affordable, prefabricated housing. Drawings of Václav Havel and Russian artist Kasimir Malevich’s famous Black Square are among the other seven pieces hanging on the gallery walls. Standing in the centre of these works is a large wooden sculpture: a replica of an architectural maquette of a tower designed by Vladimir Tatlin in 1919. I spoke with Edmundson last week about this collection of artworks that remind us of failed revolutionary ideas, which were at one time or another indicative of so much hope.

"The Work Ahead of Us" is at once an eclectic yet cohesive collection of recent works. Oscillating between pessimism and optimism, Edmundson joins disparate points in history portrayed through various media and styles. His comfort in each medium and his differing perspectives attest to his versatility as both an artist and a thinker.
