SUMMARY:The Polygon Gallery: Star Witnesses
DESCRIPTION:The Polygon Gallery presents Star Witnesses\, a group exhibition by Monika Szewczyk that assembles works by a constellation of renowned artists whose insightful observations of the cosmos bring new understandings of exploratory and migratory movements on Planet Earth. The title gestures toward each artist’s precise vision\, honed at the technical limits of photography\, and hints at how their work can turn viewers into powerful witnesses in turn. The found and newly produced images take inspiration from the skies while giving substance to vital\, human histories: one woman’s survival in an internment camp; one man’s narrow escape from a white mob; underexposed connections between a war in the Middle East and peace in a mid-sized German town; an artist’s moment of grace on top a moonlit mountain\, far from home. Each work offers the image of the cosmos as material evidence for a distinctive perspective\, worldview\, or imaginary — together\, they attest to the fact that there is no universal way of gazing at the universe. The exhibition features Daniel Boyd\, Vija Celmins\, David Horvitz\, Bouchra Khalili\, Judy Radul\, Thomas Ruff\, Urban Subjects (Sabine Bitter\, Jeff Derksen\, and Helmut Weber)\, Carrie Mae Weems\, and Paul Wong. \nAdmission to The Polygon Gallery is by donation\, courtesy of BMO Financial Group.

SUMMARY:Indian Summer Festival
DESCRIPTION:Borderless Solidarities: 2025 Curatorial Theme \nWith the closures of thought all around us in an era of hardened borders\, resurgent strains of authoritarianism and violent expulsions\, the urgency to think and live otherwise intensifies. In an unravelling world\, we invoke an audacious and unfashionable idea – an insurgent solidarity that refuses the inertias of this troubled time. \nWe hold deviously to the idea that the world of arts and culture bears the distinctive power to unfold a possible countersignature to the present hour. Through acts of deep hospitality and breathing together\, we intend to fracture the inevitability of the inherited storyline and ricochet into public encounters of the possible. \nWe ask\, how can we be together today? What is the time of dreaming? How to amplify the whispered gestures of the periphery? To listen well. To move beyond estrangement. To laugh\, to gather\, to persist in the face of impunity. To court the ecstatic trance. To disappear and reappear. To reinhabit the capacity to touch and feel. To assemble a brief refuge for the imperishable\, a defense of the sensual. A bumpy carriage ride where both tradition and change have room for maneuver. An open door to the stranger\, the neighbour and the passerby. Always an insistence on promiscuous alliances and borderless solidarities. To leave open the possibility of the possibility of something new. \nWelcome to the Indian Summer Festival 2025. Bring your friends.

SUMMARY:Vitality: Iconic Images\, Hidden Stories
DESCRIPTION:Step into the streets of Vancouver’s Chinatown through the lens of Fred Herzog. A new exhibit reopening the Chinatown Storytelling Center\, Vitality brings together a striking selection of Herzog’s photographs\, capturing daily life in Chinatown\, Strathcona\, and along historic Hastings St. from the 1950s to 1970s. Known for his masterful use of Kodachrome colour\, Herzog documented the heyday of a neighbourhood in transformation — family-run shops\, vibrant street scenes\, and quiet moments of resilience and joy. \nEach photograph is paired with personal and historical narratives uncovered by the Chinatown Storytelling Centre\, adding new layers of meaning to Herzog’s iconic images. Scan QR codes throughout the exhibition to hear firsthand reflections that bring these moments to life. \nBlending photography with storytelling\, Vitality uncovers the hidden stories behind Herzog’s iconic images\, offering a richer\, more nuanced view of these historic neighbourhoods. By capturing the vitality\, creativity\, and resilience of the community during its heyday\, this exhibition serves as a powerful reminder of what these neighbourhoods once were—and what they can become again. \nVitality\, the companion publication to the exhibition\, is a striking\, full-colour book featuring Fred Herzog’s iconic photographs of Chinatown and its surrounding neighbourhoods from the 1950s\, ’60s\, and ’70s is available for purchase at Foo Hung Curios.

SUMMARY:The Play That Goes Wrong
DESCRIPTION:Black Box Theatre Co. is bringing THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG to the Waterfront Theatre on Granville Island in Vancouver\, BC from August 13 to 30\, 2025. This brilliant piece of theatre blends farce and physical comedy with a good old murder mystery. It’s like Agatha Christie meets Monty Python. \nThe story takes place on the opening night of the Cornley Drama Society’s production of The Murder at Haversham Manor – a 1920s large cast murder mystery play\, similar to The Mousetrap. Unfortunately for the cast\, but to the delight of audiences\, the Cornley Drama Society is renowned for overestimating their abilities and for enduring mishaps during their productions\, and we soon find out this performance is no different. \nIf you’re looking for a fun night out this summer for friends\, family\, out-of-towners\, a date\, or just for yourself\, look no further than THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG on Granville Island. Or\, as we’re calling it\, Granville Island Goes Wrong. Recommended for ages 8+. \nThis award-winning play was written by Henry Lewis\, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields of Mischief Theatre Company and was first produced in London\, England in 2012. It’s currently enjoying long-running\, successful productions both in London and on Broadway in New York City\, and it is regularly produced by theatre companies all around the world to audiences who just can’t get enough of it.
