Her lines, whether published in books or brushed onto canvas, share a lyricism that transcends their respective mediums, an ef- fect that suggests a further transcendence— from artist to oracle. Like many Quebec artists of her generation, Drouin was attracted fi rst to fi guration. Yet even her earliest drawings and paintings provide evidence of an artist attentive to prevail- ing regional trends, most notably Surrealism, as manifested in the work of the Automatiste Changement climatique, 2007, acrylic on canvas artists of the 1950s. But it wasn’t until the early 1970s that Drouin’s interest in abstraction took root in a Hard-Edge painting tendency that, despite the style’s emphasis on clearly demarcated geometric shapes, allowed her to experiment with contrasting forms, an approach that laid the groundwork for her signature expressive stroke. Although Drouin stopped painting in 2011 (at the age of 78), her fi nal decade of production is indicative of an artist who, like Helen Frankenthaler or Raoul De Keyser, has an almost mystical understanding of colour and its myriad interactions, but also its relationship to those equally important modernist criteria of line and form.

OF THE ARTIST COURTESY Jeneen Frei Njootli, Joanne The emphasis here is not on the beaded TRANSPORTATION objects themselves, but on the impressions these objects leave on the body. For Frei Njootli, these impressions are more than neutral aesthetic techniques. As much as they remind us of “community, love and care,”they also signify “something darker, something gruesome.” Thankfully—and sometimes regretfully—these impressions are ﬂ eet- ing, leaving behind only mediated forms of remembrance similar to those carried by images, video, objects and performance.

preview-art.com PREVIEW 17 Hastings Park 1942 NIKKEI NATIONAL MUSEUM, BURNABY, BC – To January 14, 2018 centre.nikkeiplace.org The 1942 incarceration of 8,000 Japanese-Canadians at Vancouver’s Hastings Park and their subsequent relocation to rural internment sites and work camps along with 13,000 others is among the lowlights of a country whose national anthem equates strength with freedom. Fortunately for future generations, the incarceration is well documented, from Joy Kogawa’s 1981 novel Obasan to numerous testimonials and photographs, some of which feature in this inventive exhibition. Produced in collaboration with performance artist Yoshié Ban- croft, Hastings Park 1942 is built around an interactive theatrical installation entitled Japanese Problem (2017)–a term coined by Canadian politicians during World War II that, in its racialized nomenclature, failed to recognize Canadian citizens of Japanese ancestry as Ca- nadians, casting them as enemies of the state or, more paternalisti- cally, as in need of protection from what was believed to be a uniform- ly racist non-Japanese public. MUSEUM OF NIKKEI NATIONAL COURTESY Building K, Menʼs Dormitory (formerly Forum), Hastings Park NNM 1994.69.3.18 Japanese Problem is set in the present and in the days following Imperial Japan’s attack on Hawaii’s Pearl Harbor. Gallery patrons are invited to visit a stall in which internees have fashioned a provisional home. Billed as a “place of wonder,” the stall also functions as a place of uncertainty, where residents share their concerns about where they are headed and, when speaking in the present, whether or not they want to be memorialized.

But coming at a time when art is recognized less as a work of singular genius than as a product of a larger cultural conversation, the curators have, to their credit, placed equal emphasis on place and its fostering institutions as agents of collaboration. To bring home this notion, the two have organized a “Rural Art Symposium” that runs from November 23 to 26. Among those attending the symposium are the BC Arts Council’s Sue Donaldson, poet and co-founder of Kelowna’s Woodhaven Eco Culture Centre Nancy Holmes, Penticton Art Gallery curator Paul Crawford and artist Sylvia Grace Borda, whose innovative work with Google Street View has “helped put Nelson on the map.” Exhibiting artists are Courtney Andersen, Susan Andrews Grace, Amy Bohigian, Brent Bukowski, Boukje Elzinga, Ian Johnston, Maggie Shirley, Natasha Smith, Ian Johnston, Outbreak, 2005, porcelain Deborah Thompson and Rachel Yoder.

Surrey Art Gallery, Surrey, To Dec 10 The 13 artists represented in this group show challenge dominant and co- lonialist depictions of the Canadian landscape, asking us to consider alter- native ways of approaching the relationship between human beings and the natural environment. Many of the works are immersive, combining sound, image and form, and range from ceramic bowls that emit audio recordings and Indigenous songs from northern Ontario to a solar-powered “culture station” that collects stories in exchange for energy. RUTH BEER, ANTENNA 1, 2016 COURTESY OF ARTIST AND BELLEVUE ARTS MUSEUM

Museum of Vancouver, Vancouver, To Feb 18 Subtitled A Century of Vancouver Activism, this timely exhibition focuses our attention on Vancouver’s “rich history of protest.” Featuring some 650 photographs of “demonstrations, occupations, riots, blockades, and strikes,” it also employs digital projections, short ﬁ lms, and a compelling soundtrack to further engage visitors. Subjects range from race riots to peace marches, and from anti-logging protests to demonstrations demanding redress for missing and murdered Aboriginal women. JASON PAYNE/PNG, OCCUPYVANCOUVER, 2011

Kelowna Art Gallery, Kelowna, To Jan 14 Drawing from two different series of tapestry works by the award-winning Salt Spring Island artist, the show raises our awareness of contemporary issues, such as genetic engineering and environmental destruction. Through woven tapestry in the form of scrolls and also mounted on boards, Kidd un- settles viewers with images of germinating seeds and alpha-numeric codes, and hybrid entities that combine distinct forms such as a leaf and a piece of sea coral or a shell and a human rib cage. JANE KIDD, CURIOSITIES SERIES: PAIRING # 3, 2013 PHOTO: JOHN CAMERON,COURTESY OF THE ARTIST

Fazakas Gallery, Vancouver, To Dec 16 This posthumous exhibition focuses on the 18 Undersea Kingdom masks that the great Kwakwaka’wakw artist created on commission for documenta 14 in Kassel, Germany this past spring and summer. The show honours Dick’s accomplishments and his legacy while also serving as a powerful companion event to multiple Vancouver International Film Festival screen- ings of Meet Beau Dick: Maker of Monsters by LaTiesha Ti’si’tla Fazakas

and Natalie Boll. BEAU DICK, YAGIS, 2016

Audain Gallery, Vancouver, To Dec 9 Subtitled Commissions (Beirut 1994), Walid Raad’s exhibition is a self-assigned project investigating the lasting psychological and cultural effects of the Lebanese wars (1975-1991). Through photography, video, sculpture and performance, the internationally acclaimed, New York-based artist asks us to consider the ways the city of Beirut continues to be “haunted” by violence and destruction, even throughout the process of its reconstruc- tion, which started in 1994.

Craft Council of BC Gallery, Vancouver, To Nov 23 Formerly based in New York City and now living and working in Vancouver, Hope Forstenzer uses the medium of glass to explore the relationship between our physical bodies and our psychological selves. She combines blown and stained glass methods and techniques and adds two-dimensional imagery through both sandblasting and photographs developed directly onto the glass. “We are all transparent. We are all opaque,” she writes. “We

are all not sure of who we are.” HOPE FORSTENZER, BULLY, 2014 PHOTO: DENISE RELKE

Two Rivers Gallery, Prince George,To Jan 7 Glass and bronze sculptures by Lou Lynn occupy an almost surreal realm between the useful and the impractical, between the functional and the purely aesthetic. Taking inspiration from old and antique tools, the Win- law-based artist creates intriguing forms that might be artifacts of some lost culture, some distant time and place. Her works hint at an activity or occu- pation just beyond our understanding, the strength of the cast metal oddly

belied by the fragility of the blown glass. LOU LYNN, TWISTED SPOON, 2012

Elissa Cristall Gallery, Vancouver, Nov 4-25 For her solo exhibition, Vancouver-based Ducote has created a series of process-oriented, mixed-media abstractions on paper. Working with spackle compound, acrylic medium and acrylic paint, she adds and subtracts many expressive layers, rubbing, scraping and repainting, then applies bits of paper culled from earlier works, building up more layers. The resulting compositions, mounted on wood panels, are, the artist says, “a reﬂection of the transient nature of life.” CAMROSE DUCOTE, UNTITLED #16-21, 2016 COURTESY OF THE ARTIST

Republic Gallery, Vancouver, Nov 4-Dec 8 The third of a series of related exhibitions examines utopia not as a place but as a state of being. Evocative abstract paintings by New York-based Ky Anderson question our relationship to landscape, both interior and exterior; C-prints by San Francisco artist Yedda Morrison create portraits of art restorers at work through a focus on their deft and delicately positioned hands; and gelatin silver photographs by Vancouver-based Carol Sawyer appropriate documentary strategies in perpetuating a ﬁctional persona. YEDDA MORRISON, REGENESIS NO. 14, 2010

West Vancouver Museum, West Vancouver, Nov 7-Dec 16 It seems impossible that one family could have produced four practicing artists, but as the show demonstrates, the Mayrs brothers – Bill, Frank, David and Charles – all graduated from the Vancouver School of Art in the mid-20th century and all pursued careers in the visual and applied arts. With day jobs that included art direction, exhibition design, teaching and illustration, they all also painted and drew, their work ranging from landscape-based abstraction to surreal social commentary.

Despite the cramped conditions, lack of amenities, and out-of-the-way location, the place generated great respect as the most important gallery of photographic and media-based art in Western Canada. Now, af- COURTESY OF THE POLYGON GALLERY OF THE POLYGON COURTESY ter nearly three decades of discussions about The Polygon Gallery: Education Gallery - Art Space relocating, along with feasibility studies, searching, planning, and, more recently, fundraising, the institution has achieved a home equal to its accomplishments – and its aspirations. The renamed Polygon Gallery, scheduled to open to the public on November 18, occupies a dazzling new 25,000 square foot building on a waterfront site next to Lons- dale Quay. Designed by Patkau Architects, it commands views of Burrard Inlet and the Vancouver harbour and skyline. Its second storey, clad in polished steel and aluminum grating, is cantilevered over the glazed ground fl oor. Exterior architectural features reference both the North Shore Mountains and the historic working waterfront. Inside the east-facing entrance doors, the expansive lobby and light-fi lled ground fl oor are designed to accommodate a changing program of events and public art. Revenue-generating commercial spaces include a gift shop and the possibility of a café and restaurant. Most importantly for art lovers, the second fl oor houses four versatile exhibition spaces, each named after a major donor, as well as preparation facilities, administrative offi ces, and – great news for all those who cherished quiet times in a book-fi lled nook of the old gallery – an inviting bookstore specializing in photographic publications.

In recognition of the cabin’s cultural importance (Neil ﬁ rst moved there in 1966), a group was formed to remove the cabin, restore it and make it available to artists who could not otherwise afford to live in a region where rents have gone through the proverbial roof. “Artist residencies exist worldwide and the experiences of those who have been lucky enough to take part are often described as life changing and transformational,” writes Grunt Gallery director Glenn Alteen, who led the campaign. “Recognizing the need for such a generative space, the Blue Cabin Floating Artist Residency presents an opportunity that is unique to this region while global in its reach.” Michael Turner

Another shift concerns the naming of its art gallery. What was until last year the Charles H. Scott (after the school’s former principal) is now the Libby Leshgold (after the late designer whom ECUAD president Ron Burnett has described as a “creative wellspring”). For its inaugural exhibition, curator Cate Rimmer has mounted a group show that “extends” the many-chaptered The Voyage, or Three Years at Sea research project she began six years ago. Entitled The Pacifi c, the current exhibition features a range of artists from as far afi eld as the Philippines (Is- abel and Alfredo Aquilizan), Samoa (PaulaSchaafhausen), Tonga/New Zealand (Ka- lisolaite ‘Uhila), as well as locals Michael Drebert, Evan Lee and the late Beau Dick. “The exhibition considers the Pacifi c Ocean as a shared and connected space,” writes Rimmer. “It explores the idea that although the Pacifi c is an im- mense body of water, there is a strong sense that it is a space of connection between peoples that live beside or are surrounded by it-that it brings people together rather than separates them.” COURTESY OF THE ARTIST COURTESY Taloi Havini, Habitat: Konawiru, 2016 Michael Turner and French masters of the 20th Elana Sigal, Tanya Boya, Tom Antil, power of art, to express what their century, as well as all members Cindy Wynne Kolding, Normajean words alone cannot. of the Group of Seven and several McCallan, Eileen Mosca, Gary Nay, of their contemporaries.

preview-art.com PREVIEW 41 True Nordic: How Scandinavia Inﬂ uenced Design in Canada VANCOUVER ART GALLERY, VANCOUVER, BC – To January 28, 2018 vancouverartgallery.ca Those who think Scandinavian design begins and ends with IKEA should be forgiven if one considers for a moment the impact this lifestyle giant has had on Canadian homes since its arrival here in 1975. A more relevant question to carry into True Nordic might be, What conditions were in place that allowed for IKEA’s success? Or to para- phrase Richard Hamilton, Just what is it that makes IKEA so different, so appealing? Organized by Toronto’s Gardiner Museum and curated by Rachel Gotlieb and Michael Prokopow, True Nordic includes “more than a hundred prototypes, designer originals, and limited edition and mass-produced wares designed and fabricated across the country.” Patrons can expect to learn how Scandinavian design was introduced into Canada (through travelling exhibitions like this one) and “how its aesthetics and material forms were adopted, changed and transformed since the 1930s.” Also on display are promotional materials, most of which are adver- tisements that appeared in popular magazines. It is here that modern design principles such as “ﬁ tness of purpose” are extolled, in addition to an emphasis on natural materials. Designers featured in True Nordic include Niels Bendtsen, Bocci, Karen Bulow, Kjeld and Erica Deichmann, Thor Hansen, Andrew Jones, Janis Kravis, molo, Carl Poul Petersen, Rudolph Ren-

Entitled Dysconnected: Isolated by Our Mobile Devices, the book was written and illustrated by South African–born Anton Scamvougeras, a clinical associate professor of neuropsychiatry at UBC—when he’s not drawing and painting in his studio. “The actual moment of inspiration for the central Dysconnected image came to me completely non-verbally, while I was sketching,” Scamvougeras told the Vancouver Sun’s Stuart Derdeyn in a December 2016 interview. “A picture emerged of a person ‘boxed- in’ and isolated by their cellphone use.” Indeed, what at fi rst glance looks like a drawing of a member of a parallel humanoid species known for its defeatured, snout-heavy head is in fact a picture of ourselves caught in the communion between the phone’s light-casting face and the human face “il- luminated” by it. What Scamvougeras has done is render that space monochromatically, in white. The fi rst public exhibition of the 64 Dysconnect- ed drawings has occasioned a detailed statement from Scamvougeras, in which he reveals that the project began in 2015 while “working on a series of monochromes dealing with Canadian identity.” Af- ter that he made a drawing a day and posted them COURTESY OF THE ARTIST COURTESY online. “The daily rhythm and daily commitment Anton Scamvougeras, Dysconnected crowd, of the blog gave the series momentum—the series pen and ink drawing may not exist without the very technology that it is critically examining.” Michael Turner

(For example, “with nothing con- cealed or held back.”) Lyse Lemieux’s current exhibition—at the CAG’s gallery façade and Yaletown-Roundhouse SkyTrain OF THE ARTIST COURTESY Station—is aware of this variance, if not in content, then in form. Lemieux’s work has long straddled what was once considered art’s hard black line between ﬁ guration and abstraction. At the CAG, this line is now registered in a large-scale black ellip- sis that the artist has placed over the gallery’s exterior, “both revealing and concealing the architecture on which they’re placed.” In contrast, the exterior treatment of the neighbour- ing SkyTrain station is less a gesture toward enclosure than an unintended opening, similar to those made available through a missing blouse button on a turning torso. Lyse Lemieux, FULL FRONTAL, The body and its relationship to public and private space is a running theme in Lemieux’s work. More often than not, this theme is expressed through clothing and its material composition. A recurring motif is derived from the black tunic Lemieux wore as a child to her Catholic school. Another is the pleated skirt and its Irigarayan folds. FULL FRONTAL marks a turning point for an artist who, after spending much of the 1990s working as a Radio-Canada producer and journalist, has returned to the exhibition circuit full force.

In Khaled Alkhani’s work, we find a development similar to the works of many artists of the German Expressionist movement beginning before the period of the First World War, such as Otto Dix.Memories of the conflict in Syria have a profound influence on his work.

Playfully subverting the traditional practice and purpose of work, Morey presents an apparently light-hearted ode to her own childhood experience of men and women. Dwelling is a multi-faceted exibition including installation, sculpture and photography. Mem- brane, consists of a small, grey-weathered wooden house, inside of which pink hued colonies of egg-shaped, felted wool cover the walls and ﬂ oors. Skeleton is a series of black and white photographs attached with corroded nails to a rustic wall sculpture and is intended to further explore unconven- tional modes of building and dwelling. Dr. Morey, an instructor who offers courses in contemporary craft such as sculptural felting and the language of craft, at both UVic and the Van- couver Island School of Art, writes that “this exhibition merges the practices…of men…and women…so that the two subsist as an eco-system where Connie Michele Morey Membrane, the structure of the home is a living organism that Christine Clark reclaimed wood and wool breathes and dwells”.

Each of LAIKA’s four hit feature-length movies so far has a different look and feel: Coraline, ParaNorman, The Boxtrolls and Kubo and the Two Strings. The exhibition uses different methods to show us what LAIKA employees do in the ware- houses in Hillsboro. First you get a sense of scale. The lobby museum’s antechamber is dominated by an 18-foot-tall skeleton Rigger Ollie Jones and MOCO David Trappe program movements into the animatronic from Kubo, one of the larg- Garden of Eyes puppet. KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS ©2016, TWO STRINGS, LLC est stop-motion puppets ever made. Next to it are hundreds of tiny faces sticking out from the wall, each with a slightly different expression. LAIKA developed the art of 3-D printing face components, which adhere to the puppets with tiny rare earth magnets and can be easily swapped out frame by frame. LAIKA runs dozens of hot sets at once, often with the same puppet appearing in multiple scenes. Even with this parallel production-line technique, each feature fi lm takes about fi ve years to make from script to premiere. The exhibition is a wonderland of vitrines fi lled with meticulously styled, hand- stitched doll clothes, as well as miniature props. The lake monster from Kubo is shown alongside the giant track ball that controls it, made from a bowling ball. A half-hour video (with couches) goes a long way to explaining the methods and mad attention to detail of LAIKA’s huge creative teams. One scene shows the making from scratch of a tiny, retro desk lamp, complete with glass-blowing and soldering. LAIKA (named for the fi rst animal to orbit the Earth) is owned and run by Travis Knight, son of billionaire Nike founder Phil Knight. The company’s ethos is that the futurist should be encouraged to work alongside the Luddite to spark creativity. It’s impossible to come away from this show without an appreciation for the old analog crafts, and a sense of wonder at the depths of LAIKA’s imagination. Joseph Gallivan paintings.

Elizabeth Leach Gallery, Portland, Nov 2-Dec 23 Park’s elusive paintings offer a beautifully balanced conundrum - her soft approach to color and paint application is contrasted by the intentionally offbeat tactility of her painting surfaces. She uses luminous thin washes of pastels cascading into the physicality of imperfectly angled canvas structures that are hand-stitched with linen and Korean muslin. Park’s liminal works seem to be infused with a Rothko-like mid-century aesthetic, while also being evocative of bojagi or traditional Korean wrapping cloths, commonly made from hand-sewn pieced together fabrics, much like patchwork quilt forms. JINIE PARK, LEMON HILL, 2017

PDX Contemporary Art, Portland, Nov 1-Dec 23 Sorensen’s paintings draw inspiration from many sources, his signature reinvention of a graphic landscape world references television and pop-culture, traditional Japanese woodblock prints, the Hudson River School and animation aesthetics that inform the cartoon-like sensibility of his rounded forms and dreamy colors. His stylized compositions are richly rendered and have utopian leanings rooted in landscape, often using grounding elements of land, water, and mountains reminiscent of pristine natural environments. His paintings carry both a sense of artiﬁ cial reality and majestic fantasy. ADAM SORENSEN, CATAGONIA, 2017

Augen Gallery, Portland, Nov 2-Dec 2 In his labor-intensive wood-carved reliefs, well-known Portland artist Tom Cramer demonstrates a close reverence for nature - his hyper-organic forms pay homage not only to the natural world, but also to the cosmic domain. In this new body of work Cramer moves away from industrialized forms and gestures, rather the intricacy presented though his meticulous carvings of frac- tal-like patterning with gilded surfaces point to a spiritual realm that recalls the intangible and inﬁ nite nature of reality. TOM CRAMER, FULL MOON, 2016

Russo Lee Gallery, Portland, Nov 2-Dec 2 Hardy has etched a career derived from seeing the beauty of discarded places and urban decay indicative of a post-industrial city. His realistic renderings are almost a documentation of Portland’s old infrastructure, bringing to light his place as a witness to the Portland that once was as the city rapidly changes. Gray melancholic scenes feel quintessentially Northwest as Hardy continually showcases a poetic ability to depict the quietude of weathered street scenes while evoking beauty within the desolate moments that reside in his industrial landscape subjects. ROLL HARDY, GHOST WALK, 2017

Blackfi sh Gallery, Portland, to Dec 2 In November, Blackfi sh Gallery features two distinct artists who utilize textur- al abstraction in very different ways. Tower turned to a spontaneous approach fi ve years ago, after a long painting career focused on rendering realistic imagery. Her current non-objective work is created with rapid impasto textures and mark-making to produce primitive abstractions.

62 PREVIEW n NOV 2017-JAN 2018 H OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS I AM THIS: Art by Oregon Jewish Artists OREGON JEWISH MUSEUM AND CENTER FOR HOLOCAUST EDUCATION PORTLAND, OR - To February 4, 2018 ojmche.org This exhibition draws inspiration from the writings of mid-century American art critic Harold Rosenberg, who refl ected on the relationship between Jewish identity and art production in the post–World War II United States. In 1966 Rosenberg wrote a piece titled “Is There Jewish Art?” that was fi rst formed for a talk he gave at the Jewish Muse- um in New York. The second show at the Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education’s new space showcases four generations of Jewish-born artists who live in or have a strong association with Portland. Museum director Judy Margles states, “We thought it was important to look at issues of Jewish identity and self through a lens that also recognizes place.” The artists on display share a fundamental COURTESY OF THE ARTIST COURTESY experience of the Diaspora that marked 20th-century Jewish Michael Lazarus, no title (arrows), 2016, life, from immigrants like Mark Rothko and Frederic Lit- acrylic and found objects on wood tman, to immigrant offspring like Hilda Morris, Florence Saltzman, and Mel Katz, to the second and third generation of Jews in the exhibition–Amy Bernstein, Deborah Horrell, Michael Lazarus, Dana Lynn Louis, David Morris, Wilder Schmaltz, and brother and sister Paul Georges and Shirley (Georges) Gittelsohn. These later generations spent childhood largely assimilat- ed in secularized families and later rediscovered and redefi ned their identities.

The spectacular results have been exhibited in Seattle, Chicago, and Corning, New York. This Museum of Glass survey has been ﬁ ve years in the planning and is accompanied by a stunning book with essays by decorative arts scholars Tina Oldknow and Paul Greenhalgh. Working with a variety of master glass artists including Dante Marioni, Martin Blank and John Lewis, Paley explores the entire range of glass-making, from pipe-blowing and molding to sand-casting, oxidizing and tinting, all incorporated into his formally complex free-standing and pedestal sculptures. In addition to the works executed at Museum of Glass, curator Susan Warner has added works on paper,

- Davidson Galleries, Seattle, Nov 2-Dec 2 Japanese for “creative print,” Sosaku-hanga woodcuts differ from traditional printmaking methods in that the artist also carves and prints his or her own designs. This allowed for Modernist Abstraction to enter contemporary Japanese art, leading to 20th century achievements by artists who became well-known in the West such as Sadao Watanabe, Kiyoshi Saito and Haku Maki. Organic abstraction, large scale and brilliant colors char- acterize these appealing multiples. HAKU MAKI, POEM 1

Sensitive grisaille water- colors join pictures of landscape scenes where the living settle- ments were constructed and where acts of vigilante cruelty and violence occurred, eventual- ly leading to the Chinese Exclu- sion Act of 1882, only repealed in 1943.

72 PREVIEW n NOV 2017-JAN 2018 H OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS Exhibition Catalogues of Interest NOV 2017-JAN 2018

FAMILY LINES IN LANDSCAPE documents Veronica Plewman’s recent exhibition at Kimoto Gallery. Plewman’s abstracted and expressionistic paintings conﬂ ate landscape elements with her emotional responses to old family photos, stories and documents. Special focus is on the wartime experiences of her father, L.A. Plewman, a decorated British soldier, and Eliane Plewman, a relative by marriage, who fought with the French Resistance and was captured and executed by the Nazis in 1944.

Softcover, 81 pp., $35 CAD. Available at Kimoto Gallery, 604-428-0903.

INTANGIBLE: MEMORY AND INNOVATION IN COAST SALISH ART accompanies the Bill Reid Gallery exhibition (To Dec 10). The focus is on the work of six contemporary Coast Salish artists: Aaron Nelson-Moody, lessLie (Leslie Sam), Marvin Oliver, Ostwelve (Ronnie Dean Harris), Roxanne Charles, and Tracy Williams (Sesemi- ya). Their work is formally and materially innovative while also seeking to recover and reconstruct “intangible” cultural knowledge. The probing text is by guest curator Dr. Sharon Fortney.

Softcover, 57 pp., $19.00 CAD. Available at the Bill Reid Gallery, 604-682-3455.

TANIA WILLARD: DISSIMULATION is the companion catalogue to the recent exhibition at the Burnaby Art Gallery. It features individual prints, paintings, sculpture, textile art and performance by this acclaimed young Secwépemc artist, curator and cultural researcher. It also includes collaborative works created at Willard’s BUSH Gallery with fellow members of the satirically named New BC Indian Art and Welfare Society Col- lective. With an essay by Tarah Hogue and a pocket pamphlet of The BSH Manifesto.

Softcover, 72 pp., $10 CAD (including tax). Available at the Burnaby Art Gallery, 604-297-4422.

ANDREW WYETH: IN RETROSPECT was published to coincide with the centenary of Wyeth’s birth. The catalogue looks at four major chronological periods in the artist’s career, offering signifi cant fi rsts in Wyeth studies. While previous publications have mainly analyzed Wyeth’s work thematically, this book lays out the fi rst detailed timeline of Wyeth’s career placing him fully in the context of the 20th century, tracing his creative development from World War I through the new millennium. The monograph includes 170 color photographs and was co-published by the Seattle Art Museum and the Bran- dywine River Museum of Art with Yale University Press. Hardcover, 240 pp., $55 USD. Available at Seattle Art Museum Shop, 206-654-3120

BILL WILL: FUNHOUSE was published for the interactive exhibition at the Hoffman Gallery in Portland, which runs through December 10th. Written by gallery director Lin- da Tesner, the catalogue documents the site-speciﬁ c installation art through full color images that detail the course visitors follow to experience the exhibit. Essays elaborate on the history of Will’s career as well as the chronology of the individual works, and the pertinence of his fun and humorous approach as a platform that can provoke thoughtful deliberation. Hardcover, 48 pp., $20 USD. Available at Ronna and Eric Hoffman Gallery of Contemporary Art, Lewis & Clark, Portland, email: [email protected].
