There's a stunning exhibition of new paintings at the Dal Schindell Gallery. The artist is Karina Svalya, who I met in the Vocation Of The Artist seminar a few years back when I co-taught it with Loren Wilkinson. Large, vivid, painterly studies of African wildlife. Truly extraordinary work. If anything takes you out to the UBC campus - such as, for example, a visit to the Regent Bookstore, the largest theological book shop on the continent - you must make a point of viewing these remarkable works. I attended the opening, but intend to return soon when I can spend more time in the presence of these extraordinary paintings.
