The Baroness Elsa Project

Carleton University Art Gallery, Ottawa ON, 2021. Travelled to the Owens Art Gallery, Sackville NB.

The Baroness Elsa Project brings elemental traces of the radical art, poetry and personage of Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven (1874-1927) into conversation with the work of eight contemporary artists. Reaching back a century, this exhibition positions Freytag-Loringhoven as a conduit for exploring embodied ways of making art in the present.

[…]

The Baroness Elsa Project illuminates the past and the present. The timely, relevant ideas explored by all the artists in the exhibition catalyze conversations that will be expanded upon in the fifth annual Stonecroft Symposium through a series of virtual events, performances and workshops.

Winner of the “Exhibition of the Year (Budget over $50,000” award, 45th annual Galeries Ontario / Ontario Galleries Awards, Toronto (2022).
