VENICE AGENDA - MARVELOUS REALISM goes to HAMILTON HOUSE, Bristol UK
PETER EVANCHUCK & HELENE LACELLE SUBMISSIONS FOR THE VENICE AGENDA SHOW
THE MARKET: WHAT IS THE VALUE OF ART
VENICE AGENDAS 2019 -THE MARKET: WHAT IS THE VALUE OF ART? aims to examine the financial mechanism that powers the art world. How does the system of the art market work? Who are the beneficiaries and who are the losers? Through research, round table discussions and commissions of new work, Venice Agendas explores the impact of the art market on the territory and environment that artists, institutions, curators and writers have to navigate to create, present and discuss original contemporary artwork.
The project began in May during the press days of the Venice Biennale with recorded round table discussions at the Metropole Hotel and with our roving reporters Sacha Craddock, Fari Bradley and Jean Wainwright conducting interviews with artists, writers, curators and international art world professionals. The interviews will be broadcast online through our website and social media.HAMILTON HOUSE

More MARVELOUS at the St Laurent Library
![]() | |
| Helene with the help of Linda Dabros level-up her 'MARVELOUS' installation at the St-Laurent Library |
Exhibition of Paintings - Helene Lacelle and Peter Evanchuck
St-Laurent Library, in conjunction with Arteast, is proud to present an
exhibition of images by local artists Helene Lacelle and Peter
Evanchuck. This show is titled Marvellous Realism and runs from June 28
to September 27, 2019.
In this interesting exhibit, the artists combine the traditional use of photography and painting with modern computer capabilities to enhance and create something unique for the viewer. For example, homes undergoing decay and abandonment due to the economic crisis are made beautiful using these techniques. Evanchuck's photography is thus enhanced with Lacelle's paint and brush, and then further developed with the use of computer image enhancement. Images were shot primarily in New Brunswick and in the Perth area of Ontario.
This is a unique opportunity for the public to enjoy, encourage, and support artists in their local community, as well as the St-Laurent Library.
Location: St-Laurent branch of the Ottawa Public Library, 515 Côté Street, Ottawa K1K 0Z8
Hours: Monday to Thursday: 10:00 - 8:30, Friday: 1:00 - 6:00, Saturday: 10:00- 5:00,
Sunday: closed

Our 'MARVELOUS REALISM' artwork travels to the TATE EXCHANGE LIVERPOOL
28TH JULY TO 12TH OF AUGUST 2018
The Venice Vending Machine ( DISPENSING FREE ART ) project is a “collaborative, participatory, inclusive live art public installation”, conceived by Venetian artist Marina Moreno. Its aim is to question the role and the value of Art in our society, whilst aiming to promote emerging artists alongside some famous and established ones. It creates an intriguing game for the participants who feel compelled to enjoin and involve themselves in a dialogue that the artist Marina creates in posing the question:
“HOW DO YOU VALUE ART?”
Since the first Venice Vending Machine installation, it has involved over 400 artists from all over the world and has attracted professionals such as curators, art historians and art collectors while extending the possibility of an encounter with people that normally would not be interested in “Art”.
Unlike past VVM events, and in keeping with the spirit of this Tate Exchange Liverpool the acquisition of a work of art will depend uniquely on a dialogue about the notion of art in our society and culture with no monetary exchange, focusing only on the intrinsic value of art.
