Speier and Iwase present contrasting minimalist aesthet ic approaches to social issues and popular culture. Each artist brings a unique sensibility which is grounded in their Japanese ancestry. Deeply i nspired by the fragility\, vulnerability and pure beauty of eggshells\, Ju nichiro Iwase uses this natural medium to explore perspectives on contempo rary society and social issues. In contrast\, Jeremy Isao Speier uses kine tics and obsolete technologies\, mostly made in Japan\, in conjunction wit h recycled and salvaged found objects from Vancouver\, which speak to urba n gentrification and the loss of space. A small catalogue will accompany the exhibit.\n<strong>Artist Talk</strong>\nThursday\, June 13\, 6 p.m.\n\ n<strong>Opening reception\n</strong>Thursday\, June 13\, 7-9 p.m.\n<stron g></strong>\n<strong>Japanese Avant-Garde Counter Cinema</strong>\nFriday\ , July 12\, 8-9 p.m.\n\nAdmission by donation.
