سكان تورنتو و المدن المجاورة انتم مدعوون الى معرض..محاضرة.. موسيقى فى 8-مارس...

On Thursday, March 8, 2007, from 6 PM to 8:30 PM, Craig Scott Gallery presents the opening of “Khartoum,” paintings and mixed-media installation work by Amir Shingray. All are welcome; there is no admission charge to the opening.

An education and awareness event dedicated to the Darfur crisis immediately follows, organized in association with MEDECINS SANS FRONTIERES (MSF), at The Berkeley Church (315 Queen East at Berkeley, one block north of Craig Scott Gallery). Doors open at 8:30 PM; to cover costs, there is an admission charge of $10 at the door. Special guests are Sudanese musical sensation Waleed Abdulhamid Kush, who orchestrates an evening of musical harmony in diversity, and James Orbinski, international President of MSF from 1998 to 2000 (and the deliverer of MSF's Nobel Peace Prize speech), who speaks on his analysis of the crisis in Darfur.

Amir Shingray

Canada
1962

Of Beja descent, Amir Shingray was raised in the Sudanese coastal city of Swakin. He left the Sudan in 1984 for Istanbul where he lived for a half dozen years. Due to circumstances in the Sudan, he came to North America, eventually making his way to Toronto in the early 1990s.

Since coming to Canada, Shingray has been working primarily in the graphic design field, all the while pursuing distinctive paintings, mixed media works and drawings that are charged with raw psychic energy. Shingray's work swirls in the spaces between abstraction and representation. The viewer of Shingray's work will be conscious of a constant buffeting from despair to hope, from a celebration of beauty to an exploration of the human capacity for inferno. Whatever his specific subject, Shingray's sweeping gestures, bold lines, and melding of colour give birth to integrated wholes that seem to embody the movement of life itself. The works available through CSg and displayed on these pages have been produced in the past few years, including the 2006 "Landmarks" series. The first 9 thumbnails in the present profile for Shingray consist of the 9 pieces in a single painting-installation called "Landmarks (Our 9/11 World) Series", and are displayed as they would appear as an ensemble on a wall.

Shingray is preparing for a mixed-genre show at Craig Scott Gallery in 2007, which will include a major installation and which will involve collaborators from around the world.

Education

Two cities have had a formative influence on Shingray's artistic trajectory, Swakin and Istanbul. Although when Shingray arrived in Istanbul, he did not yet know he wanted to pursue a fine art career, he did follow as a child the activities of art students coming from Khartoum to Swakin to draw the splendour of Swakin's Islamic architecture and city life as part of their graduation thesis for the Khartoum Fine Arts School. Shingray considers Ustad Babikir, a leading Swakin artist, to have been his first art teacher. In Istanbul, he was much influenced by Gregory Wolf, an American professor at Bogazici University, with whom Shingray worked for six years before departing from Turkey.

شكراَ ليك كتير.
وينك يا غالي.










مودتِي.

طبعا يا محمد يادريج انت رايح لي وعرفت بالضبط يوم الخميس حألقاك وين!


شلت البوست ده وديتو هناك وجبت ده هنا
وده كلو من أجل المبدع شنقراي
ومن لم يعرف شنقراي واسرة شنقراي
فهو بالطبع لا يعرف تورنتو

رسالة عبر هذا البوست لدرير
رسالتك وصلتني وقمت باللازم من دون الرجوع اليكم وازعاجكم بتلفون

الأعزاء شمس الدين ودريج،

"حاسدين على عدم التمكن من حضور إفتتاح المعرض"

شكرا للبوست ،
وأرجو المزيد من الصور والتغطية.

تحية للفنان شنقراى،
وأمنياتى بإفتتاح موفق ومعرض ناجح.

تحية لكل الموسيقيين والمشاركين فى الفعالية،
ومزيدا من الإنجاز...فالفن فى المقدمة دائما.

والله أولا ... شكرا للآتيين :

صديقي ... درير ... وقد وافاني في جملة المدعويين ... ومن وقت مبكر ,

وصديقي ... محمد عثمان ... ولما إستفحل إسفيريا ... وقطع { دابر } التحجج ,

ولصديقي ... شمس الدين ... وهو يعيد البث ... هنا ... وهناك .

ولصديقي ... شنقراي ... وهو يبحر فى خضوم الفنون ... متأهبا لأن يكون ... كما

الوطن ... الذي يحلم به .



لكنه ... الأسف ... أول حججنا ... وأقصر قاماتنا ... فهو يوم عمل { لاحظ لمهاجر }

يعقبه يوم عمل { لنفس المهاجر } ... وهذا ثمن { هجر } الاوطان ... وغض النظر عن

{ العسف }


علمت فى معرض الدعوة ... أنه عرض محدود ... وقد إنتهي ... فأين نراه من بعد ؟


ليت هناك إمكانية { للإعادة } ... أو { ملحق } ... إن شئت , فأخبرونا ... أهل العلم


مع ... مودتي
