In 2009 the Sugar Cane was introduced, this 300gsm is made from 75% sugar cane fiber, which is a by-product of sugar cane processing and 25% recycled cotton fibers. Sugar Cane 300gsm is a natural white, textured, fine art paper that is OBA free and extremely resistant to aging. It features a premium inkjet coating that ensures prints with rich contrast and detail-ideal for printing warm-tone color and monochrome photographs, as well as fine art reproductions.

On the other hand Bamboo 290gsm was introduced in 2008, and is the first Fine Art inkjet paper to be made of approx 90% highly renewable bamboo fibers, thereby helping to conserve valuable resources. Its natural white tone makes it particularly suitable for warm-hued colors. The paper’s wide color gamut and extreme color density ensures detailed Fine Art prints with a 3 dimensional image sharpness. Hahnemühle will donate a fixed amount – depending on product size – from the sale of each Bamboo paper product towards environmental projects.

BEZPALA BROWN GALLERY

Volatile Particles. 25 years after Chernobyl – Mathew Merrett and Olena Sullivan (a CONTACT 2011 Photography Festival participant).
Two Canadian artists document Chernobyl 25 years after the nuclear disaster while the world watches another unfold. Volatile Particles contrasts man’s impact on the environment with nature’s resilience. The photographs blend images of normality (the ghosts of the past) superimposed on post-Chernobyl devastation and infestation (the present-day stark reality amid the afterlife of the Exclusion Zone). Poignant, moving and relevant – this is a timely introspection addressing our ever-evolving nuclear depression.

April 21-May 30, Artist reception May 14

KUMF GALLERY with CHILDREN OF CHORNOBYL CANADIAN FOUNDATION

Chornobyl – 25 Years Later - Back in 2008, two urban exploration photographers came together with an idea for a project that would take them to the irradiated landscape of Chornobyl’s Exclusion Zone and the ghost city of Prypyat. The goal was to explore the Chornobyl disaster through photography, the personal accounts of our journey, and stories from those who reside in the local area today. The photos in this exhibit – donated to the permanent collection of the Children of Chernobyl Canadian Fund – are the result of my subsequent visit to the area in September, 2009 thanks in part to a grant from the Ontario Arts Council. These photographs document the area almost 25 years after the nuclear disaster that changed the world and show how impermanent man-made structures truly are compared to the resilience of nature.

Saturday, April 30, 2011 at 6:00p.m. – Olena Serbyn-Sullivan Photographer & Speaker with guest speaker Dr. Roman Serbyn. Ukrainian Canadian Art Foundation 2118-A Bloor St. W. Toronto, ON M6S 1M8
