FLOW
An exhibition featuring unique, contemporary art jewellery that features handmade glass components or that is made completely from glass, whether blown, cast, slumped or lampworked. This genre is experiencing a great renaissance currently and INFLUX is happy to present some of the finest artrists in the field and highlight this exciting movement.

Feb 27 – Mar 31

PRIMAL INSTINCT, Solo Exhibition by Anna Clark
The theme of this exhibit is botanical, a study of the interaction between plant and pollinator. Fascinated by this seductive yet often deceptive relationship, Anna Clark uses acrylics, resins, silver and gold to create her intricate jewellery pieces.

Oct 31–Dec 10	COCKTAIL RINGS Expect an unexpected kind of extravagant beauty in these contemporary expressions of a classic jewellery object.
Aug 29–Oct 15	100 MEDALLIONS: A Centennial Exhibition This year Alberta celebrates its 100th Birthday and to commemorate the event, an official Centennial Medallion is being issued by the Province. INFLUX has decided to expand on the collection by presenting one hundred medallions produced by artists from across the country. These Medallions commemorate Alberta’s history from diverse selection of viewpoints and of course, are all wearable!
July 4–Aug 14	BOLOS & BUCKLES We have asked our artists to reinterpret these classic Western accessories revered by Calgarians each summer for the Stampede by conceptualizing and/or celebrating Bolos and Buckles and bringing this western tradition into the 21st Century.
May 2–May 28	HIDDEN IN THE DETAILS: ACAD Jewellery & Metals Department Graduate Exhibition The Alberta College of Art & Design is host to one of Canada’s most outstanding arts focused jewellery programs where students are able to obtain a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in a four-year program. INFLUX is proud to support these emerging artists by hosting an exhibition of their graduate studio work.
April 7	Artist's Demonstration An in-house demonstration is sure to stir up your curiosity, and maybe even the creative juices! Join us for an educational wine and cheese event! Local artist and jewellery designer, Chris Gillrie, will demonstrate the coloring, or ‘anodizing’, of titanium. Historically a material used in the aerospace industry, titanium has many applications today from bike spokes to body piercing jewellery. Chris, however, uses this material in conjunction with precious gemstones and gold details for the production of his modern jewellery designs that have a classic appeal. He specializes in women’s and men’s tension set rings.
