New West was made for walking. One stroll down Columbia Street, along the Fraser River waterfront, weaves you in and out of beautiful heritage buildings and stunning modern architecture like the Anvil Centre where inside, the New Westminster museum traces 10,000 years of culture in the region, next to the New Media Gallery that celebrates contemporary art created in a world transformed by technology. Prepare to be moved.

Rob Friedman is a muralist-styled stained glass artist with over 40 years experience.
“What is most important to me is the interplay of light. Be it natural, fluorescent, or incandescent, I will design the piece with this in mind. Everything I produce should make a statement, sometimes subtle, many times less so. I always keep in mind the impact we have on our fragile planet.” ~ Friedman
Intrigued by light play and utilization of fine lead lines, he works to achieve a depth of detail that is almost 3-D.

ABOUT MEASURE: In this exhibition, artists consider how we measure and track the movements of our perceived world through space and time. The works address the measurement of time, light, colours, seasons and the movement of celestial bodies. The exhibition as a whole considers complex interactions and interconnections ; how one thing can be understood to influence another… and how human bodies and technical apparatus measure, document and allow us to perceive unfolding events as part of an embodied experience.
ABOUT NEW MEDIA GALLERY: A contemporary art gallery that presents award-winning, technology-based art from around the world. Exhibitions question what it’s like to live in a changing world of technology.
