    MaRCH 2021 ONlINe aUCTION JULY 15, 2020 15, JULY Sale March 4, 2020 – March 25, 2021 001 HERBERT BRANDL 1959 - Austrian Ohne Titel oil on canvas on verso signed and dated 2006 74 3/4 x 63 inches 189.9 x 160 centimeters Provenance: Galerie Elisabeth & Klaus Thoman, Austria Private Collection, Austria Sold sale of Zeitgenössische Kunst, im Kinsky Auktionhaus, May 10, 2011, lot 141 Collection of Joey & Toby Tanenbaum, Toronto Exhibited: Literature: This canvas by Herbert Brandl features a bluish teal ground populated by pale yellow brushstrokes sweeping from side to side. As the colours intermingle and separate, a veil of drips wanders down, slowly dissolving into (the ether of) the background. Brandl’s painterly mastery saturates this work. With a few simple, confident and elegant strokes, he creates an abstract form which can be almost instantly recognized as light reflecting on water. Light never materializes into an object, it occurs in time; and on the surface of water it always shimmers, flickering from one form to another. Brandl’s decades long preoccupation with pictorial form and the conceptual underpinnings of the image is clearly visible in this work. Here, Brandl captures something essential in an almost monumental format, and presents it as something still wavering between the abstract and concrete. Like an illusion or an apparition, it appears unmistakable, yet one cannot be sure of its true nature. Brandl’s work has been exhibited all over the world, including Biennale de Paris (1985), the São Paulo Art Biennale (1989), Documenta IX (1992), Kunsthalle Basel (1999) and the Venice Biennale (2007).

  • Canadian Engineering History: a Thumbnail Sketch
    Canadian Engineering History: A Thumbnail Sketch by Andrew H. (Drew) Wilson, FCAE May 2020 Prepared at the request of the President of the Canadian Academy of Engineering Preamble Engineering can be, and has been, defined in a variety of ways. A very early definition was that it is “the art of directing the great source of power in Nature for the use and convenience of people.” Nowadays, it has to be considered as an informed activity performed by purpose-trained practitioners in regard to the design, production and maintenance of machinery, constructions, processes and devices that is being augmented constantly by experience, research, and information that extends beyond science and technology and requires some understanding of economics and business, the law, the social sciences, and politics, as well as an appreciation of the past as well as the future. This paper has been written especially for students of engineering, to introduce them to some of the past events and achievements in engineering activity in Canada. The text is relatively short and makes use of information that has already appeared in other, longer stories of Canadian engineering. For the purposes of this paper, however, some of Newfoundland and Labrador’s engineering achievements prior to 1949 have been included. The illustrations are also few in number, but a bibliography has been appended to encourage further reading. To provide some background to the events and achievements, some economic, social and political information has been included. To help accommodate its ‘thumbnail’ description, this paper omits specific references to Canadian achievements abroad, to engineering in the Armed Forces, and to some of the companies with obvious engineering connections.

    CAMH/CAMH Foundation Annual Report to the Community 2019-2020 A Message from our CEOs and Board Chairs On behalf of CAMH and CAMH Foundation, thank you for your continued support of our hospital, our mission and the people we serve. Typically at this time of year, you’d receive our annual report. During these difficult times, however, we’ve had to adapt, as our hospital focuses on keeping our patients and community safe. Even though our plans have changed, our commitment to being transparent and keeping you informed remains steadfast. With that, we’re pleased to provide you with a financial update from CAMH and CAMH Foundation for the past fiscal year (ended March 31, 2020). Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, the CAMH community has rallied together to support the public through these challenging times. From March to April 2020 alone, CAMH’s virtual care visits increased from approximately 350 per month to almost 3,000 per month. Our experts quickly mobilized to develop evidence- based tips, coping strategies and resources for the public and health care workers, and we launched a new awareness campaign: Apart. Not Alone., which you may have seen in The Globe & Mail, on social media and in television commercials. As we look toward the future, CAMH is preparing for the opening of two new hospital buildings in the fall as part of our plan to build the mental health facility of the future. In today’s challenging times, and with important work still ahead of us, our shared mission has never been more critical: Mental health is health.
