SAAG: Janet Cardiff George Bures Miller - Opera for a Small Room

Internationally acclaimed artists Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller return to Lethbridge to present Opera for a Small Room and The Muriel Lake Incident. Like many of the duo’s major works, these meticulously orchestrated audio-visual installations offer an uncanny world rife with narrative and opportunities to explore. The Muriel Lake Incident was created in 1999 and was partially filmed in Lethbridge. It speaks to both cinema and architecture in its re-creation of the familiar movie theatre. Once the viewer dons the headphones, the model environment suddenly becomes very real due to the use of binaural sound recording which reproduces the sounds one might hear in a real-life theatre environment and gives one the feeling that they are actually present in an old theatre. Coinciding with SAAG’s 40th Anniversary, the exhibition celebrates Cardiff and Miller, artists who have left their mark throughout many decades of the gallery’s institutional history and who continue to influence and inspire artists and audiences around the world. Cardiff and Miller live and work in the interior of British Columbia.
