LOOP&PARALLEL

Get tickets for an evening of vibrant contemporary art and community at KOAC’s annual fall fundraiser & exhibition.

Join KOAC on September 6th for LOOP&PARALLEL—a special art exhibition and exclusive fine art auction that celebrates co-founders Katie Ohe (Dip '60, Sculpture and Honorary MFA) and Harry Kiyooka’s longstanding influence in the arts with a special theme that celebrates their bold popularization of postmodern abstraction in Alberta. Think crisp lines, loops, and shapes, and mid-century brights. 

The evening will include an exclusive art auction preview by LEVIS Fine Art, alongside a special exhibition curated by Ash Slemming (BFA '17, Print Media) that highlights the intertwined legacies of KOAC cofounders Katie Ohe and Harry Kiyooka. Featuring artworks that loop back to their aesthetic innovations and run parallel to their enduring impact – the exhibition also celebrates a small selection of contemporary artists whose work shares a kinship with Katie & Harry’s post-modern abstraction and playful use of form and gesture.
