SUMMARY:Current // Process + Place
DESCRIPTION:Current is a new series of public art activations presented by The New Gallery (TNG)\, transforming the Bow River pathway into a flowing corridor of creativity. Connecting Calgary’s cultural landmarks and natural landscapes\, these activations merge art\, nature\, and community through installation\, performance\, and interactive projects. It invites audiences to experience the city through the rhythm of the river and the energy of downtown life. \nPresented by The New Gallery and supported by RISEUp Calgary\, Current runs through July 6 – 30th\, 2026. \nCurrent brings together the works and creative processes of Calgary artists through installation\, performance and socially engaged practice. At times ecological\, social and deeply rooted in process\, Current invites artists to slow down and work directly within the liminal space of the river’s edge\, the histories it holds\, its riparian habitat\, transition to the urban environment\, and the material relations both carried and deposited. \nArtist participation is site-specific\, and interventions are simultaneously temporary\, time-based and socially engaged. Current merges an outdoor exhibition program with musical and movement-based performance\, installation\, sound\, participatory workshops and facilitated interdisciplinary tours.

SUMMARY:Globe Cinema Presents: I Shot Andy Warhol (1996)
DESCRIPTION:Globe Cinema Presents: I Shot Andy Warhol (1996) \nThe scintillating feature debut of Mary Harron (American Psycho) and one of the most controversial independent films of the 1990s\, I Shot Andy Warhol stars an electric Lili Taylor as Valerie Solanas\, a militant feminist whose attempted murder of Andy Warhol brought instant fame to her radically anti-male SCUM Manifesto. Dropping out of grad school in the midsixties\, the brilliant yet volatile Solanas survived in New York City as a destitute artist\, sex worker\, and panhandler\, soon striking up a friendship with Warhol superstar Candy Darling that brought her briefly into the orbit of the world’s premier pop artist.  \n\nWith vivid\, hallucinatory attention to historical detail\, Harron captures the explosive cross-pollination of New York’s political and artistic countercultures as well as the creativity\, snobbery\, and decadence at the heart of the legendary Factory. Anchored by pitch-perfect performances—and featuring a blistering score by John Cale as well as covers of sixties hits by some of the nineties’ most iconic bands (R.E.M.\, Wilco)—I Shot Andy Warhol is an incisive portrait of a rebel without an outlet and the soon-to-be-lost generation she came to define.  \n \nGenre: Drama\, Biography \nDirector: Mary Harron \nStars: Lili Taylor\, Jared Harris\, Martha Plimpton \nRunning time: 1 hr 43 min \nRating: 14A (Coarse Language\, Sexual Content)  \n\nDebit\, credit\, and tap only for payment. No cash accepted.
