What do artists do? How do they see the world?

This exhibit explores the interrelationship of perception and visual modes of communication through the life and work of North Newton artist and designer Bob Regier. Behind the finished works, framed and hung on the gallery wall, lie process, history, and journey. From childhood fascination with sandbox play, through a life of graphic design, printmaking, and teaching, to continued work in exhibit design in retirement...Bob’s journey is told through six themes:
•learning the language
• designing for print
• discovering the prairie
• engaging the classroom
• shaping worship
• crafting exhibit spaces

Enjoy a quick walk through the gallery or linger and study Bob’s many notebooks. Rediscover ways of seeing on a visual journey with Bob.
