Local artists to showcase work at remix show in Toronto

Gladstone Hotel will be hosting an art gallery Monday to showcase artists “from all levels of experience.”
Ty Dunitz, an Oakville-based freelance Illustrator, is the organizer of the gallery he is called the “remix show”. The show will be held at the Gladstone Hotel on Queen Street in Toronto. The gallery will open at 7:00 p.m. on Monday and will continue to Sep. 1, from noon to 5:00 p.m.
“I started this project having a very uncommon way of illustrating,” said Dunitz. “As such I quickly realized I’m digging myself into a hole. Instead of waiting for opportunities to come to me, I went out to create my own.”
The gallery is called the remix show because the concept was to bring together 10 artists to create 10 unique pieces. The artist can use any medium they are comfortable with, the only requirement is the piece must have the prefix “re” in mind (recall, revive, remind, etc.). Each artist would then recreate each others artwork in their own style, sometimes combining multiple pieces of art into one new piece.
“I consciously selected artists with conflicting styles,” said Dunitz. “In a typical show everyone draws more or less the same. I’m attempting to broaden the scope.
