Monday, June 14 – 5:00pm – 7:00pm

Giddy Up, a project by Andrew Hunter at the Walter Phillips Gallery that tells the tale of Andy, a young boy from Southern Ontario who yearns to visit Banff and to ride the trails, sleep under the stars, and be a "real" cowboy. The boy's fantasies are fuelled by a mysterious neighbour, a "cowboy" lost in the suburbs of 1960s Southern Ontario. Inspired by classic Westerns, country music, pulp fictions and cowboy kitsch, Giddy Up weaves a tale of innocence lost with a sinister twist.
