- Plug In ICA 460 Portage Ave
Deirdre Logue and Allyson Mitchell will be staying in the MAWA apartment while they lead this year’s Summer Institute at Plug In ICA, developed in partnership with MAWA. As well as being co-founders of FAG (Feminist Art Gallery) in Toronto, they are also independent artists with active national and international careers. Deirdre Logue’s performance-based film, video and installation works are self-portraits uniquely located between comfort and trauma, self-liberation and self-annihilation.
Free! Everyone welcome!
