GALLERY ON QUEEN AND THE BEAVERBROOK ART GALLERY PRESENT Studio Watch: Lucy Koshan
September 27th – October 17th
Join us for the 2020 Studio Watch Exhibition featuring emerging artist, Lucy Koshan, on September 27th at 3pm at Gallery On Queen in collaboration with the Beaverbrook Art Gallery. Lucy will be discussing her work during the Opening.
Gallery On Queen is committed to the safety of our patrons during the ongoing pandemic. We will have limited in-person attendance to maintain physical distancing, as well as an online live stream available for viewing.
Lucy Koshan is a visual artist and farmhand living in Sackville, New Brunswick. She makes large-scale paintings depicting everyday rural life, and tries to reconcile mundane realities (watching, tending, repairing) with terrifying ones. She holds a foundation year certificate from the Yukon School of Visual Arts and a BFA from Mount Allison University.

Rituals: Alison Willms & Austin Daigle
Gallery On Queen is pleased to announce Rituals, a show featuring Alison Willms and Austin Daigle. The show will be taking place on October 8th and more details will be coming soon.
This show continues our commitment to supporting and encouraging emerging artists as they establish themselves in the world of New Brunswick Art.
Alison Willms, an emerging artist from the east coast of Canada, is a graduate of the Bachelor of Fine Arts program at Mount Allison University. Alison uses a wide range of media in her practice, including analog photography, printmaking, film, sound, and installation, as she works between two locations she considers ‘home’: Fredericton N.B. and St. Andrews by-the-Sea N.B.. Willms’ work explores a spectrum of ideas from relationships to ritual as she shares her experiences.
Austin Daigle is an emerging artist, taught metalsmith, experienced part-time bench jeweller, and art preparator/ junior curator for Gallery on Queen fine art. Born in Calgary, Alberta, 1995, his family was posted through the military to New Brunswick only a few months after his birth. During his time at the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design he found an affinity in the malleability of sterling and copper, and went on to graduate with honors from the Jewelry and Metal Arts program in 2017. Austin has since been working at Gallery On Queen under the guidance of Nadia Khoury, as a preparator he has hung and displayed the work for several exhibitions.
GoQ Community Support Initiative
The ongoing GoQ Community Support Initiative is a campaign designed to give back to our local community. We are committed to keeping one of our walls dedicated to our initiative, and our artists are continuing to generously donate their works.
100% of the funds raised being given to Black Lives Matter Fredericton and Gignoo Transition House. All proceeds will be split 50/50 to these two organizations. We want to give back to our community and we believe strongly in the mandates of these two organizations.
