Portraits of Aboriginal People by Europeans and by Native Americans
OTHERS AND OURSELVES: PORTRAITS OF ABORIGINAL PEOPLE BY EUROPEANS AND BY NATIVE AMERICANS Eliana Stratica Mihail and Zofia Krivdova This exhibition explores portraits of Aboriginal peoples in Canada, from the 18th to the 21st centuries. It is divided thematically into four sections: Early Portraits by European Settlers, Commercially-produced Postcards, Photographic Portraits of Aboriginal Artists, and Portraits of and by Aboriginal people. The first section deals with portraits of Aboriginal people from the 18th to the 19th century made by Europeans. They demonstrate an interest in the “other,” but also, with a few exceptions, a lack of knowledge—or disinterest in depicting their distinct physical features or real life experiences. The second section of the exhibition explores commercially produced portraits of First Nations peoples of British Columbia, which were sold as postcards. These postcards date from the 1920s, which represents a period of commercialization of Native culture, when European-Canadians were coming to British Columbia to visit Aboriginal villages and see totem poles. The third section presents photographic portraits of Aboriginal artists from the 20th century, showing their recognition and artistic realizations in Canada. This section is divided into two parts, according to the groups of Aboriginal peoples the artists belong to, Inuit and First Nations. The fourth section of the exhibition explores portraits of and by Aboriginals. The first section sharply contrasts with the last, showing the huge gap in mentality and vision between European settlers, who were just discovering this exotic and savage “other,” and Native artists, whose artistic expression is more spiritual and figurative. This exhibition also explores chronologically the change in the status of Aboriginal peoples, from the “primitive other” to 1 well-defined individuals, recognized for their achievements and contributions to Canadian society. -
The Memorial Album As Aide-Mémoire
Barkerville’s Thomas Robson Pattullo in Life and Death: The Memorial Album as Aide-Mémoire Don Bourdon* hough others on Barkerville’s main street are closer to the camera, one man stands out. He is wearing a distinctive black hat, frock coat, and travelling cloak. He leans against Tthe Bank of British Columbia building with an air of importance and looks straight at Frederick Dally, the photographer. Thomas Robson Pattullo stands out in this and other Cariboo photographs from 1867 to 1869. He appears wearing similar dress, trademark sidewhiskers, and a stern expression (Figure 1).1 He was also photographed in rough work clothes, the burly miner-cum-mine owner, not afraid to get dirty, but a figure of consequence. For over seventeen years, Pattullo was a larger-than-life figure in the Cariboo. He died suddenly in 1879 at the age of forty-one, and his memorial album of Dally photographs, long forgotten, serves as a springboard for discovering more about him and the community he called home. Thomas Robson Pattullo was one of Barkerville’s most identifiable public figures during the 1860s through the 1870s, frequently mentioned in the press, in public records, and private accounts. Pattullo toiled in the Cariboo, made fortunes and lost them, and lies buried on the hillside overlooking Barkerville. Though a resident of Barkerville and nearby Stanley, Pattullo was also a bon vivant in New Westminster and * I am grateful to Margery Hadley (archivist and editor) for her insights and editing; Sharon Keen (researcher) for tips on sources; Catharine Bechard (Oxford County Branch Ontario Genealogical Society volunteer) for sleuthing the Woodstock newspapers; James Douglas (manager, Visitor Experiences, Barkerville Historic Town) for interpretive program back- ground and Pattullo observations; and Richard Mackie and the reviewers (BC Studies) for valuable suggestions. -

MONTREAL to WELCOME a NEW CITY MUSEUM Major Benefactor Donates $15 Million
MONTREAL TO WELCOME A NEW CITY MUSEUM Major benefactor donates $15 million Montreal, April 30, 2019 - The McCord Stewart Museum is proud to announce that its planned new museum will be located in the heart of downtown Montreal. The new establishment will expand the McCord Museum’s current site by building on Victoria Street, which runs along the west side of the Museum, and the lot housing the former Caveau restaurant on President Kennedy Avenue. The combined area of these sites will enable the museum to meet its needs for additional space and create an institution that will leave its mark on Montreal’s urban and cultural landscape. Working closely with the City of Montreal, which is granting the right to build on Victoria Street, the Museum selected the site after conducting a feasibility study. The new building will house three recently merged museums—the McCord Museum, the Stewart Museum and the Fashion Museum—under a single roof. This legacy project will create a world-class institution for generations of Montrealers. «Our administration believes that it is important to build this new museum. It will be a major attraction for our city and a source of pride for all Montrealers. We are pleased to be able to help advance the project by granting the right to use Victoria Street, so that this cultural space may continue to attract visitors, both locals and tourists, in the heart of the city’s downtown museum district,» declared Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante. New museum to receive historic donation The McCord Stewart Museum also announced that La Fondation Emmanuelle Gattuso had pledged to donate the extraordinary sum of $15 million towards the project. -

Counterpoint
Counterpoint Coming to Terms with Photographs: Descriptive Standards, Linguistic “Othering,” and the Margins of Archivy JOAN M. SCHWARTZ RÉSUMÉ Cet article confronte certains postulats des archivistes concernant les photo- graphies, en particulier en ce qu’ils façonnent le vocabulaire de notre pratique profes- sionnelle. Il suggère que les archivistes, à travers leurs normes et leurs pratiques, sont dans une large mesure responsables du fait que les utilisateurs des archives n’ont jamais apprécié à leur juste valeur les documents visuels. Parce que les photographies sont comprises et conservées de façon différente dans les bibliothèques et les centres d’archives, l’article s’attache au discours institutionnel et aux pratiques de celles-ci, particulièrement à l’usage des termes « special media » et « non-textual », à l’adoption par les RDDA du terme « graphic material » pour décrire l’art et la photographie et aux implications pour la numérisation à la pièce. L’auteure suggère enfin que, en adoptant un modèle textuel de l'information consignée et un modèle bibliographique de la classi- fication des images, nous perpétuons notre fixation sur le contenu factuel au lieu de se concentrer sur les origines fonctionnelles des images. En conséquence, nous n’arrivons pas à incorporer les idées nouvelles et stimulantes sur la réalité et la représentation, le contexte et le sens, et ce faisant, nous reléguons les photographies aux marges de l'archivistique. ABSTRACT This essay confronts certain assumptions held by archivists relating to photographs, in particular, those which govern the terms we employ in our professional pursuits. It suggests that, if users of archives have persistently failed to appreciate the value of visual materials, then archivists – through their standards and practices – are, in large measure, responsible. -
