An immediat e success, Intermedia fulfilled a need in the Vancouver artistic community for a central meeting place for all different types of creative minds . The interes t in group activities, group creativity and community-related projects arose ou t of the changing lifestyles and values of the young people of the sixties . Inter- media described its initial aims in this way : At the time of its inception Intermedia aimed to create a centre of community resource in Vancouver where artists , architects, engineers, technologists and educators coul d come together to explore new models and formats for the purpose of intensifying and expanding the effectiveness o f creative sensibility in the community . Later the aims of the society were shifted to emphasize individual artists an d smaller groups : The purpose/aim of Intermedia is to help the artis t realize himself and his work by providing an umbrella / shelter of cooperatively-structured, contiguous an d inter-related functioning artists' groups, often ser - vice-oriented . Intermedia provided support both financially and morally for all of the artist s and groups connected to it . With the help of Canada Council and federal govern - ment grants, Intermedia put on exhibitions, workshops, educational seminars an d impromptu social and artistic gatherings . As Intermedia grew and the spin-offs from Intermedia became independent, th e core group, Intermedia Society, began to lose importance as a source of inspiratio n and support (see attached sheet showing spin-offs and dates of important Inter - media activities) . By 1974 Intermedia Press had eclipsed the founding group , Intermedia Society . Intermedia Society had created and initiated an exciting new art scene in Vancouver and left in its wake many groups that were central t o the continuation of modern art and writing on the West Coast . Intermedia was involved in audio-visual programs, photography, dance , environmental research, exhibition projects, educational programs (in school s and community centres), film and video workshops and shows, media and desig n consulting, poetry readings, a mime troupe, etc . etc . There were many well - known artists, writers and musicians connected to Intermedia . Some of thes e people were Bill Bissett, Henry Rappaport, Jack Shadbolt, Doris Shadbolt, Werne r Aellen, Gregg Simpson, Gary Lee Nova, Gerry Gilbert, Michael Morris and man y more (see attached list showing the various core groups that made up Intermedia) . The files originally created by Intermedia have been kept in order and note d in the inventory . All other files and series have been created to complemen t the original filing system . Because of this there are files that have either duplicate or additional information to the information provided in the origina l filing system (see Selective Cross Reference List) . Drsring the history of The Intermedia Society certain artist s have been associated with the conception of Intermedia in on e way or another, .at one time and .another, and in many ways still .

    Essays / Marian Penner Bancroft UBC in the Sixties A conversation with Audrey Capel Doray, Gathie Falk, Donald Gutstein, Karen Jamieson, Glenn Lewis, Jamie Reid, and Abraham Rogatnick Abraham Rogatnick: In the last ten to fifteen years, students have approached me, and they are always interested in this period of the sixties. They are working on a thesis or some project, and I always wonder why, as they were born in the eighties or the nineties. But they come to me with an interest, a very specific interest. I always thought they were wonderful days, but it never occurred to me that another generation would have known about it. Marian Penner Bancroft: I think that there were certain events and moments in the sixties that have spawned all kinds of current activities and actions, whether in politics, visual art, writing, theatre, dance. (We don’t have someone from theatre here.) But, for example, there are overlaps such as your perfor- mance work, Glenn and Gathie, coming out of the workshop that you did with Deborah Hay in 1968, and these are overlaps that continue. Audrey Capel Doray: The first time I met you, Karen, was in my living room, for an Intermedia meeting. And then at an Intermedia Night when I had the phosphorescent wall up. You brought your dancers in, and you decided on a metronome and then worked there for a couple days in a room of your own. Another room had Claude Breeze and his band. You did this dance, and all I have is one simple little photograph of your dancers, of the shadows of your dancers in that backlit room.

  • Art and Immigration: Hidad by Nadia Seboussis
    ART AND IMMIGRATION: HIDAD BY NADIA SEBOUSSIS Sheila Petty (University of Regina) A Pathways to Prosperity Project April 2017 Sheila Petty Art and Immigration: Hidad by Nadia Seboussi Acknowledgement: Special thanks to my former graduate student Zaheer Shahid and to Nadia Seboussi and Jennifer Pham, Galerie Dazibao, Montreal, Canada, for their kind assistance with images, catalogue and background information. Thanks also goes to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (Pathways to Prosperity Partnership Grant) for sponsoring this research. This research explores how newcomer experiences and experiences of immigration are expressed through the creative arts and how experiences of migration, immigration, trauma, memory, longing, and belonging become factors or motivators of innovation and creation. Achille Mbembe (2002) has described migration as a “movement of worlds,” creating histories that must be understood as “culture[s] of mobility” emerging in response to internal and external contacts. Arjun Appadurai has written that the “disjunctive flows” of “globalization” have produced “floating populations, transnational politics within national borders, and mobile configurations of technology and expertise” that in turn create “problems that manifest themselves in intensely local forms but have contexts that are anything but local” (2000: 5-6). Despite the economic, political, and cultural challenges facing immigrants, artists (immigrant and otherwise) are creating spaces of transnational exchange in art and popular culture that not only undermine the barriers facing them, but also write their existence on the face of globalization itself. Appadurai argues persuasively that “imagination” has the power to permit “people to consider migration, resist state violence, seek social redress, and design new forms of civic association and collaboration” and fuels “collective patterns of dissent and new designs for collective life” (6).
