Pay homage—er, Homerage—to a cartoon classic at a Simpsons-themed art show

Ever wanted to taste Tomacco, marvel at a stone etching of the Stonecutters logo or get a good ol’ Glove Slap to the face? Here’s your chance. Later this week, Kensington Market gallery Videofag will host Homer’s Odyssey, a four-day Simpsons-themed art show curated by local editor, artist and poet Lindsay Cahill. Ever since she started watching the show as a kid in the early ’90s, Cahill has had the idea in her back pocket. “I’ve always known the creative potential The Simpsons offered artists and fans, and I felt like there was a growing need for an official Toronto homage to this edgy animated masterpiece,” she told us. It took her about two decades, but she’s finally making good on her vision. The show will feature 22 artists’ works. We’re not sure if any of the brilliant ideas we mentioned above will make the cut, but expect to see a Simpson-ized version of Hieronymus Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights, a knitted recreation of a scene from the first-ever Itchy and Scratchy Show, an exact replica of the gummy Venus de Milo, and a performance from a rapper named Lil Zimpson. Just think of all the things that rhyme with “D’oh!”

Sept. 4–7. Videofag, 187 Augusta Ave., 647-238-3047, facebook.com.
