Brian Mulvihill.
November 2007 - January 2008

The Apartment is pleased to announce an exhibition of paintings by Brian Mulvihill. A private view and reception will take place on Sun, Nov 25th from 4 to 8pm. Please join us for this special event.

Bryan Mulvihill aka Trolley Bus, has been a vital part of the Vancouver scene for more then 30 years. During that time he has dedicated himself to the study of calligraphy and eastern scholarship working with masters in Canada, India, Japan, China and where ever his pilgrimage brought him. Educated in fine art at UBC under Tom Burrows, Roy Kyooka, Glenn Lewis, and Tony Onley, Mulivihill combines his philosophical studies with his conceptually based art practice. This exhibition will focus on two bodies of work from the 1980’s. Traces of spontaneous collaborations are captured in Shadow Calligraphities on Indian lungi (underwear) which will be shown alongside calligraphic work that pay homage to the layered cut-ups of Brion Gysin. In relation to these works we will also present a collection of fine Japanese, Korean and Chinese ceramics.

This exhibition will be available for viewing by appointment from Nov 26th to January 15.
