Description

For their 10th biannual themed exhibition, Vancouver-based figurative collective Phantoms in the Front Yard explores drug culture and its impact. Whether legal, illegal, pharmaceutical, naturopathic, synthetic, or cultivated, drugs have an ever more varied presence on our media, conversations, and society in general. From their use and misuse to their purpose, promise and prominence, they are tied to still wider spectrum of societal issues.

Over the Counter Culture makes reference to propaganda posters, contemporary advertising, fictional and technical literature, and historical print and painting styles, to explore the evolving complexities circling the perceptions and uses of drugs in cultures past and present.

Phantoms in the Front Yard is proud to have this exhibition be a portion of Scene and Unseen - an Arts Encounter at the Gordon Smith Gallery.

As a Phantoms guest, please RSVP below by collecting your complimentary ticket (Otherwise $15 each) to Scene & Unseen, an interactive multi-floor evening of contemporary dance, musical performances and song. Scene & Unseen will be collaborating with Phantoms for our opening reception.
