Where else but IN a Phone Booth?

LAST CHANCE - ends on Saturday! TEL-TALK art interventions in telephone booths Exhibition continues to Saturday, July 14, 2012 Exhibition photographs available at http://telephoneboothgallery.ca/tel-talk.html Coordinated by: Paola Poletto, Liis Toliao and Yvonne Koscielak Tel-talk is an on-going project that brings together artists of varying backgrounds, from across the country, to perform in and or animate a telephone booth in response to themes surrounding public spaces, and the disappearance of traditional phone booths. Artists and writers were invited to contribute a site-specific installation, artwork, or short work of fiction, which references a unique telephone booth location. The installations began in September 2011 and continue through to July 2012. Over the last nine months, each installation was announced and documented on the Tel-talk blog (http://tel-talk.blogspot.ca/). The Tel-talk project has culminated in the current exhibition at the Telephone Booth Gallery, along with a fabulous book which outlines contributions to the project in (phone) book form, printed under the Tightrope Books imprint. The book is now available at the gallery for $19.95.  The project continues online with an open invitation to artists and writers to make their own art interventions.  Full list of participants: http://tel-talk.blogspot.ca/ Notable Press: Torontoist - http://torontoist.com/2012/06/telephone-booth-takeover/ Taddle Creek - http://www.taddlecreekmag.com/art-on-the-line Must see exhibition - NOW Magazine, IN Toronto Magazine Globe and Mail - http://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/artists-to-give-telephone-booths-across-toronto-a-facelift/article534602/#039;s%20Must%20Reads&utm_content=2372021 LAST CHANCE to catch these TEL-TALK  Telephone Booth art interventions  Through to July 14 Lansdowne Light Box Dyan Marie Dupont Street and Lansdowne Avenue (Toronto, ON) (Nearby Coffee Time) Through to July 14 Flagpole (a meta-conversation) Stuart Keeler Jarvis Street and Wellesley Street East (Toronto, ON) HOURS Tues by appt.
