Red Deer Arts Council presents, “The Canadian Landscape Abstract Paintings”
Red Deer Arts Council and Red Deer Public Library are pleased to present, “The Canadian Landscape Abstract Paintings” artworks by John Bladek running from Dec. 2-Feb. 8, 2026, in the Kiwanis Gallery.
Organizers say this exhibition includes paintings of Canadian landscapes that John paints from where he lives and travels, from Nova Scotia to the Rocky Mountains and Alberta prairie scenes, as well as from Newfoundland to the Yukon and Northwest Territories.
Officials say John finds inspiration from his appreciation of the natural environment. Many of his paintings are of “iconic” Canadian scenes (Peggy’s Cove, Moraine Lake, etc.) and his hope is that people who view them will appreciate the fact that his interpretation is different and imaginative.
Open to the public during library hours:
