The Sweet Spot exhibition ends Sunday, December 1, 2024—catch it before it's gone!
A selection of works from the Confederation Centre Art Gallery collection that aim for the “sweet spot,” that place or moment that finds just the right balance between order and chaos, the right distance between intimacy and perspective, the right mix of freedom and generosity. It is the perfect jump shot or musical note. It takes practice and yet must be improvised. It’s always moving, and never known in advance.
