On
the cutting edge of creative studio research and practise, Dr. Don
Bergland, Associate Professor of Digital Arts at the University of
Victoria, has been shaping a body of inventive artistic work which
integrates traditional and digital techniques in a style he calls "Technosurrealism."
American critics are describing his work as "comprising the forward edge
of the contemporary Neo-Surrealist movement" and “work which
crystallizes its new destination.” Other reviewers have stated that his
creative work is “re-inventing the Surrealist Renaissance.” In the last
6 months, his work has won a showing in 12 international juried
exhibitions in galleries ranging from Los Angeles, to New York, New
Zealand, and Rome Italy. During this time, he has won 2 exhibition
awards in both Canada and in the USA and won sponsorship for a 2005 Solo
International Exhibition at the Caladan Gallery in Beverley,
Massachusetts with a scheduled encore Solo Exhibition set for May, 2006.
He recently had a body of innovative work successfully juried for the
Project30 Gallery in New York city. He is currently working through a
series of studio research issues for his intended 2006 schedule of over
20 international exhibition venues.
