- **Event Name**: Artist Walkthrough - Leesa Streifler 'The Performance of Being'
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 03 Jan, 2026 at 01:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Join us for an artist walkthrough of our current exhibition, Leesa Streifler 'The Performance of Being'. 

A retrospective survey of the work of one of Canada’s leading feminist artists over the course of her 40-year career. The exhibition explores Streifler’s sustained interest in the representation, performance and politics of “Othered”, marginalized, and non-conforming bodies. Drawing on her own lived experience and informed by feminist theory, her powerful, emotionally-charged, and expressive works present figures that defy social conventions, behavioural ‘norms’ and traditional gender roles to engage in critical discourse on body-image, sexuality, agency, performativity, relationships, motherhood, illness and aging. Drawn from public and private collections nationwide, this survey brings together over one hundred works in drawing, painting, mixed media, photography and installation, exemplifying the significant contributions of Streifler’s critically-acclaimed practice towards feminist art in Canada.

This exhibition is curated by Wayne Baerwaldt &amp; Jennifer McRorie. It is organized by the Moose Jaw Museum &amp; Art Gallery in partnership with the Nickle Galleries (Calgary, AB), Art Gallery of Swift Current (Swift Current, SK) and Art Gallery of Southwestern Manitoba (Brandon, MB).

Plug In ICA acknowledges the funding support provided by the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage Museum Assistance Program, the City of Moose Jaw, SK Arts, Government of Saskatchewan, SaskCulture, Saskatchewan Lotteries and Canada Council for the Arts. Support for the exhibition is provided by the National Gallery of Canada.
