Colloquium is an exhibition representing the diverse artistic practices of Humber College's Visual and Digital Arts faculty. Drawing from the gamut of analogue and digital methods that reflects the plurality of contemporary Canadian art, this exhibition reveals the formal and critical concerns of faculty members who are both mentors and contemporaries to emergent student-artists on campus. The exhibition showcases works that confront issues of representation, abstraction, academic practice, popular culture, the body, and identity. Colloquium brings to the fore the artist's struggle to define oneself in an age of rapid technological expansion, wherein a reverence for the past—the laborious, handmade, and corporeal—appears contrasted against the present—the accelerated, mediated, and virtual. Refuting this apparent divide, the faculty of the Visual and Digital Arts Program offer a unique glimpse into the technical and conceptual versatility of today's artist-educators.

In many of today’s higher education institutions, technology has a ubiquitous presence and this is driven by the aggressive growth of mobile technologies. From a student perspective, students try to use technologies to restructure and improve their learning experiences. From a faculty perspective, faculty members try to create innovative, pedagogically sound teaching experiences using different technologies. In the case of the tablet, these ultra-light, multi-functional computers allow faculty to incorporate unique software (apps) into their classrooms and distinctive teaching methods using the features of tablets.

Using the iPad tablet, this workshop will explore the basic functionality of tablets while exploring some of the more intriguing applications/apps that faculty can integrate into their teaching methods.

“From Clutter to Culture: Why We Love to Collect”

How many of us collect things? Why do so many of us do this? Museums and art galleries are the places where communities and nations assemble collections to preserve, study and display the past. Why go to all this trouble?

This lecture explores the near-universal desire to acquire things and what these "very slow time machines" tell us about ourselves, our national identities and our hopes for the future.

A brand new speaker series, presented in partnership between Lakeshore Arts and Humber College. Join us every Monday from 12 noon to 1 p.m., February through to April, bring your lunch and join others from the community to learn something new. This speaker series isn't
about what you do, it's about who you are and what fuels you! Spark Plugs is designed to engage conversation with your neighbours through shared knowledge, experiences and passion. So, come out and plug what sparks you!
