Image of the Goddess in Nature - Paintings by Manya Saadi-nejad
Visual Voice Gallery, Belgo building, 372 St- Catherine St. West, 421

"In these paintings I have sought the inspiration of water, soil, and the colors of nature to explore the roles and experiences of women from mythological times to the present. The ancient statuette of ancient goddess, known as 'Venus', is an archetypical representation of woman's life-giving role; her Iranian analogue is Anahita, goddess of the waters in Persian's myth, also seen as a source of life. In my own life, I have known no more evocative symbol of female strength than my grandmother, who passed away in September 2007. I offer this exhibition as a tribute to her memory."

SideMart Theatrical Grocery presents the English world premiere of OOOO!
THE STUDIO Segal Centre for Performing Arts 5170, ch. de la Côte-Ste-Catherine

Oooo! is a touching and powerful comedy about the lives of a group of clowns in Nazi Germany. Charlie Rivel, the most tender of clowns, is forced to perform for Hitler, the most barbaric of dictators. Can art be guiltless? Does it have to submit to power? Can an artist remain apolitical in the midst of political chaos?


Written by Gerard Vàzquez, translated by Elisabet Ràfols and Michael Bantjes, and directed by Andrew Shaver. With Alain Goulem (lead role), Graham Cuthbertson, Patrick Costello, Jesse Todd & Tobias Goulem, Alain's 11-year old son.
