In this moment where faith in media, government and institutions is further collapsing, where binarization is on the rise, where expressions of doubt are tactical, this exhibition includes artists’ works that contend with systems of belief and perception to trouble truth’s material (and immaterial) forms. Holding space for doubt — a space of critical reflection that contains multiple truths or exposes the limits of truth — the exhibition’s title engages the paradoxical or impassable from the Greek word aporos. This impasse functions as an expression of real or pretend uncertainty that the works in the exhibition collectively query and channel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cstrong>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fmonteclarkgallery.com\u002Fevan-lee-cirage\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cirage: Evan Lee\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>Monte Clark Gallery, 53 Dunlevy Ave, Vancouver BC\u003Cbr>Januar 13–February 10, Tuesday–Saturday 10am–6pm\u003Cbr>Opening: Saturday January 13, 12-5pm\u003Cbr>Free\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u003Cem>Cirage\u003C\u002Fem>, French for ‘shoe polish,’ investigates the tension between high art and low-class materials, pointing to the classism inherent in the economy of artistic production.
