Roadside attractions

Roadside Attractions, organized by Dunlop Art Gallery, presents a network of contemporary art commissions across Saskatchewan during the summer of 2018. Each artist participating in Roadside Attractions considers the unique histories, geographies, and populations of various locations – factors that have shaped dozens of Saskatchewan spaces into meaningful places.

While emphasizing the importance of historic downtowns and public institutions in place-making, Roadside Attractions also seeks to encourage a sense of discovery among viewers. Original artworks positioned along a 20+ hour scenic Prairie road trip create a network of unique experiences with art across the Saskatchewan Prairie – encounters range from public sculptures and site-specific installations to sound art pieces that accompany viewers as they journey through the province.
