Abstract and Keywords This essay examines several problems in contemporary painting, beginning with the question of painting's real or imagined centrality within the visual arts. The question then asked is whether or not there is anvthing fundamental which distinguishes painting from the other arts, by looking at the example set in sculpture by Richard Serra.The conclusion reached, in opposition to Serra, is that what distinguishes painting are its conventions, following the work by the critic, Yve-Alain Bois, and Ludwig Wittgenstein.

WANDA KOOP: SIGHTLINE As we can see in Sightline (Cityscape with Red Cross) the crosshairs (or “target”) in the piece sit directly over a compact city block with large open spaces on either side, conveying the environment of a city on the prairies. The crosshairs are a way of locating something, of targeting, of pointing to a goal or an objective. Usually, this is to cause damage; it comes from archery and rifling and was used to indicate where an arrow or bullet would fly. More recently it has come to be used for photography; the crosshairs in the camera indicates something that is worth taking a picture of, and therefore something that should be paid attention to. The practice of hunting is similar to the practice of photography. We refer to both hunting and photography in similar ways: in photography, we refer to recording an image as “capturing” or “shooting,” and another term for a gun’s crosshairs is its “sight.” Both are about targeting, locating, and choosing a moment. In this work, Koop has chosen to locate the crosshairs on the center of the piece, over the city part of the image.

Throughout our history, MAWA has been asked many times, “Why women?” Why is there an artist-run centre devoted to women artists and their work? Why women-focused mentorship, discourse and education? And on top of it all, why feminism? THE ANSWERS TUMBLE THrougH US, passioNate, IDIOSYNcratic AND PERSONAL: Because we’re more than half the population.

  • Wanda Koop,” Frieze, June 1, 2011
    ! Robert Enright, “Review: Wanda Koop,” Frieze, June 1, 2011 Wanda Koop National Gallery of Canada BY ROBERT ENRIGHT Wanda Koop, “Flying to the Moon - Gold Fish (detail),” from the series Flying to the Moon, 1987. In his 1947 book Call Me Ishmael, the American poet Charles Olson argued that the birthright of being born in North America was a claim on SPACE, which he wrote in upper case letters because, as he said, ‘it comes large’. In the presence of all that space, the artist could either dig down for protection or climb on for the ride. For the Winnipeg-based painter, Wanda Koop, whose 20-year survey, ‘On The Edge of Experience’, filled four generous galleries at the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, space is the whale that gets 2276 EAST 16TH STREET, LOS ANGELES 90021 NIGHTGALLERY.CA ! swallowed up. (The exhibition was co-organized by the Winnipeg Art Gallery from which it toured to Ottawa.) Koop has been making art for 40 years and over that period of time she has been consistently attracted to working in series. This is less where she set out than where she ended up; for her painting a single work is a generative activity. There is something almost rapacious about Koop’s production: for ten years she painted on 2.4-metre-square sheets of plywood and made series after series, including ‘Building in the Pool of the Black Star’ (1981), ‘Reactor Suite’ (1984), ‘Flying to the Moon’ (1987) and ‘No Words’ (1991). The ‘Black Star’ series comprised 44 metres of paintings installed in a circular horizon line in the Manitoba Legislative Building; painted a year before the Chernobyl disaster, ‘Reactor Suite’ was a four-part, 20-metre-long nocturnal dystopia of cooling towers, a nuclear submarine, a blue heron and a pair of figures emerging from deep blue water; ‘Flying to the Moon’ and ‘No Words’ comprised 60 and 55 large paintings respectively.
