Aganetha Dyck: Brain Is Not Enough

January 10 - 28, 1988

"Early in 1987, Aganetha Dyck sent letters to various office buildings and institutions including the Winnipeg Art Gallery, to be posted publicly. These letters proposed the following: 'I am an artist who is having an exhibition at Gallery 111, January 10, 1987. My exhibition deals with habits and addictions. If you are considering stopping your cigarette habit, I have a proposal for you. If you like you may give me your last cigarette. I in turn will turn it into a work of art, exhibition it at Gallery 111 and return it to after the exhibition. There is no charge for the first 25 persons who participate.'" Grace E. Thomson
