Speed Limits @ the CCA

May 17th, 2009

Speed Limits is the next CCA exhibition. Co-organised with the Wolfsonian-Florida International University, it “addresses the pivotal role played by speed in modern life: from art to architecture and urbanism to graphics and design to economics to the material culture of the eras of industry and information. It marks the centenary of the foundation of the Italian Futurist movement and is curated by Jeffrey T. Schnapp, Stanford Humanities Lab.”

No details have been given regarding the actual content of the exhibition, but that small paragraph I found on the CCA website (the one i just quoted) got me hooked - unlike the image they’re using for promotion, hence that lovely picture i google-imaged for y’alls.

The Vernissage for Speed Limits is happening on Tuesday, 19 May, 6 - 8 pm. The CCA is having a Post-vernissage that same day, 8 - 11 pm.

There will also be a Gallery Talk on Thursday, 21 May, at 7 pm where Curator Jeffrey T. Schnapp and exhibition designer Michael Maltzan will discuss the exhibition.

The Canadian Centre for Architecture is located at 1920, rue Baile.
