Join us throughout the festival beginning Sat April 24, for a series of conversations with various participating Fusebox artists.  It’s a casual/fun way to get to know the artists and the thinking behind their work.  In conjunction with Culturebot.org (NYC), the conversations will last under an hour--we hope you can join us.  

SUNDAY, APRIL 25th: DANIEL BARROW

Winnipeg-bred, Montreal-based artist DANIEL BARROW uses obsolete technologies to present written, pictorial and cinematic narratives centering on the practices of drawing and collecting. Since 1993, he has created and adapted comic book narratives to "manual" forms of animation by projecting, layering and manipulating drawings on overhead projectors.

Barrow has exhibited widely in Canada and abroad. He has performed at The Walker Art Center (Minneapolis), PS1 Contemporary Art Center (New York), The Museum of Contemporary Art (Los Angeles), The International Film Festival Rotterdam, The Portland Institute for Contemporary Art’s 2009 TBA festival, and the Gene Siskel Film Center (Chicago). Barrow is the 2007 winner of the Canada Council’s Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton award and the 2008 winner of the Images Festival’s Images Prize. Barrow is represented by Jessica Bradley Art + Projects, Toronto.
