BACK BURNER PATRICK GORDON FRAMING was very excited to co-host the launch of Yann Martel's What is Stephen Harper Reading with Octopus Books on Monday, November 16. The launch and reading was accompanied by BACK BURNER, a show of artworks to support (or inspired by) the ideas in Martel's letters to the Prime Minister, his book choices, or concerns with funding for the arts. MC for the evening of the launch was Peter Honeywell, the Executive Director of the Council for the Arts in Ottawa. Visit www.whatisstephenharperreading.ca to read the letters and reading suggestions. A special vernissage and preview evening for the artworks was held on Saturday, November 14. In many cases, artists had available statements conveying their own message to the Prime Minister...BACK BURNER will remain hanging until just before Christmas '09, so there's lots of time to come in and see the work contributed to the show...and to buy something fabulous! To learn more about the artists, click the name and follow the links to their own sites at left. For photos from the events, keep scrolling! First up are the launch photos, followed by the vernissage.
