After the screening, we jumped ino the car and drove to Saskatoon for an opening at the Remai. I had hoped to see more people that I know, but didn't. Margaret spoke with some but I don't recognize people easily enough I guess. The first thing (after Fudrukkers) was having beverages on the roof of the gallery. Nice view and beautiful day. The exhibition was wild. It featured numerous sculptures, mobiles, and videos by the French artist Laure Prouvost. They must have gone out of their way to get lots of kids in the gallery, many of whom were armed with flashlights to illuminate the work and create shadows. The mobiles are made from found trash and all of them move around on a rail through the gallery, pulled by a gallery facilitator.. A pretty nice (and much more quiet) artist talk followed. We stopped from Starbucks on the way out of town but due to a complicated order ahead of ours, the take out beverages we got took 30 minutes. Got home after midnight.
