The Gleaners is the latest iteration of the annual Art*Cycled series, an exhibition presenting work by senior sculpture students from the University of Saskatchewan’s School for the Arts. The series provides students with a public platform for ambitious, materially grounded practice while fostering meaningful connections between the university and the broader Saskatoon community.

This year’s edition takes its subtitle from the tradition of gleaning, the practice of gathering what remains after harvest, reframing waste and discarded material as a source of creative and critical inquiry. Working with recovered and recycled materials gleaned from City of Saskatoon’s Material Recovery Centre, the twelve participating artists consider cycles of consumption, material culture, and sustainability through assemblage sculpture.

The Gleaners marks the first public event hosted at the Caswell Bus Barns, a heritage industrial building now emerging as one of Saskatoon’s most distinctive arts and culture hubs. Constructed in several phases between 1921 and 1975 to serve the Saskatoon Transit System, the building has undergone an adaptive reuse to become home for artists, architects, musicians, actors, and the amenities that sustain creative communities.

Art*Cycled: The Gleaners is organized by Ella Dawn McGeough, Area Chair of Sculpture at the School for the Arts, with generous support from the University of Saskatchewan’s Office of Sustainability. The organizers extend warm thanks to Dana Kwan, Crystal Bueckert, Todd Lyons, Bea Fortier, Colin Miner and the welcoming staff of the City of Saskatoon’s Material Recovery Centre.

Admission is free and open to the public. All are welcome.
