My winter paintings of treed urban parkland are examples of magical realism in which ordinary places take on a hyperrealist or fantastical appearance.\u201d The reception is 1-4 p.m. Saturday if you\u2019d enjoy meeting this talented acrylic landscape painter in person.<\/p>\n Details<\/strong>: 10:30 a.m. \u2013 5 p.m. at Bugera Matheson Gallery (10110 124 St.), no charge<\/p>\n Gotta Minute Film Festival<\/strong>: The \u201cfestival in your pocket\u201d continues, the first festival for commuters celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. Appearing in Edmonton (and Calgary) transit systems, where every five minutes digital screens light up with a program of One-Minute Silent Short Films from around the world. The films also play in the Metro Cinema lobby and at various Edmonton Public Library locations \u2014 including an in-person screening and artist talk at 2 p.m. Saturday at Stanley A. Milner Library.
