FORGED WITH FIRE! The Fire & Steel Contemporary Blacksmithing exhibition marks the first time artist blacksmiths have collaborated to organize an art gallery exhibition in Ontario. (1) This collection of imaginative handmade objects represents a cross-section of functional, architectural and sculptural ironwork from forges across Southwestern Ontario. This compelling body of work is an honest expression of what’s capturing the imagination of blacksmiths, who make a living hammering hot metal in order to re-shape it into useful, pleasing or thought-provoking objects of art.The opening night reception for Fire & Steel will take place at the Elora Centre for the Arts on Thursday February 21st from 7 – 9PM. Enjoy light refreshments and live DJ music, learn about the art of metalworking and meet the talented artists behind the exhibition.We hope you can join us!
