Kim Neudorf’s writing and paintings explore themes of resilience, healing, and survival while seeking to undo easy legibility in order to honour the daily, more complicated modes of visibility and existence.

Neudorf completed their BFA from Alberta College of Art and Design in 2005 and their MFA from Western University in 2012. They attended the Optic Nerve Thematic Residency at the Banff Centre for the Arts in 2005 and in 2011 were named one of fifteen semi-finalists at the thirteenth RBC Canadian Painting Competition.

Their work has appeared most recently at Support project space, London; DNA Gallery, London, Ontario; Paul Petro, Toronto; Franz Kaka, Toronto; Forest City Gallery, London, Ontario; Modern Fuel Artist-Run Centre, Kingston; Evans Contemporary Gallery, Peterborough; and Susan Hobbs Gallery, Toronto. They live and maintain a writing and studio practice in London, Ontario.

OUR STORY

Artists Jamelie Hassan and Ron Benner and jazz musician Eric Stach founded the Embassy Cultural House (1983-1990) located in the restaurant portion of the Embassy Hotel at 732 Dundas Street in East London. Other former members of the board were: Debrann Eastabrook, Henry Eastabrook, Sharron Forrest, Wyn Geleynse, Janice Gurney, Jean Hay (1929 - 2008), Doug Mitchell, Kim Moodie, Gerard Pas, Peter Rist, Wanda Sawicki, Jean Spence and Jennie White. In 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Embassy Cultural House was re-envisioned as a virtual artist-run space and website.

This project is supported by the Ontario Arts Council and the London Arts Council through the City of London's Community Arts Investment Program.
