Figure 1 Backlist Figure 1 Backlist Kim Dorland by Katerina Atanassova, Robert Enright and Jeffrey Spalding "Kim Dorland" explores the mind and work of one of Canada's most intriguing contemporary artists. Named Globe and Mail 'Artist of the Year' in 2013, Dorland has captured the public's imagination with his tour-de-force, visceral creations. His paintings are at once referential, material, psychological, beautiful, and uncomfortable, resulting in a body of work that is seemingly disparate but undeniably connected through its idiosyncratic - and maximal - use of paint in all its forms Author Bio Katerina Atanassova is the chief curator of the McMichael Canadian Art Collection. Since her appointment in 2009, she has led and curated several special exhibitions, among them The Tree: Form and Substance (2011) and You Are Here: Kim Dorland and the Return to Painting (2013). She was also the co-curator for the enormously successful international touring exhibition, Figure 1 Painting Canada: Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven.

Mounted to a barge and towed to different locations during the summer of 2014, this large-scale installation acted as a curious marine outpost asserting a presence that both troubled and delighted. In amongst paddleboats, pleasure craft, passenger ferries, cruise ships, freighters and barges stacked high with global commodities, Deadhead introduced art as valuable cargo within a constantly changing flotilla of economic exchange. As a platform from which cultural activities unfolded, Deadhead hosted a lively program of events including weekly open houses, film screenings, workshops, choir performances and a series of improvisational sunset performances.

A self- described "speed painter", he turned out paintings in a matter of minutes, often working on several at the same time, that mesmerized customers as they watched them come to life. Flexhaug was painting a generic landscape fantasy for a society that had been shaped by the Dust Bowl and Depression, but the way he turned that popular formula inside out resulted in paintings of extraordinary richness and invention. This book features more than 120 colour reproductions of his paintings and historic photographs. Essays explore his relationship to the tradition of ideal landscape painting, the Prairie influence on his art and career, and his place within both the history of "market-driven" art (...)

When the gravity of the COVID-19 pandemic became clear in March 2020, Canada, like many other nations, imposed strict “lockdown” measures on almost all sectors of society. Overnight, most Canadians became confined to their homes. Office buildings, malls, streets, public spaces and airports emptied. Only essential services, such as grocery stores, pharmacies, and gas stations, were allowed to operate under strict “physical distancing” conditions. As our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) grew and lockdown measures persisted for several weeks and months, glaring inefficiencies in community design started to become unignorable. Our response to challenges that had previously been inadequately addressed - multimodal transportation, a high-quality public realm, age-friendly and accessible planning, for example - have now become essential precursors for the creation of a resilient post-pandemic world. Conversations on the future of cities have become commonplace in mainstream society, and some of the best and brightest minds in the planning profession have made valuable contributions to this discourse.
