Cover Image: Gabriela García-Luna Blue Wheat , 2011 Giclée print on paper Photo courtesy of the artist The Saskatchewan Arts Board provides opportunities to change horizons for people across Saskatchewan. An aspiring artist’s entire life can be altered by funding that allows them to attend the right training program or to work with an inspiring mentor. A first creation grant to an emerging artist can be life-affirming – allowing that person, sometimes for the first time, to see themselves as a professional artist. An award offered to a mid-career or established artist can open new vistas to them and provide access to countless new opportunities. The life of a school can be forever changed by the presence of a professional artist working directly with students. The presence of a professional arts organization can entertain and challenge a community, and it often provides resources far beyond the presentation or exhibition of art.

    Goose Lane Editions Fall 2018 Where to begin? With a heartbeat. A word. An image. Fall 2018. A season of provocation, of entertainment, of complete absorption. A season of ideas. And of emotion. “This is where the heart of feminism beats.” — Annie Lennox on Powered by Love This fall our selection of new titles includes books destined for everyone’s reading list: a provocative (and yes, decidedly controversial) book on the myths of mammography by investigative journalist Renée Pellerin; a memoir of a river by one of Canada’s best nature writers, Wayne Curtis; and the first of two volumes on the Great Trail by hiker extraordinaire Michael Haynes. “Blunt, honest and well-researched.” — Flurt on F-Bomb Readers will be entranced by fabled lawman Strother Purcell in Ian Weir’s deadpan revisionist western and pulled into the undertow of history in Paul Carlucci’s ravaged high-rise of the north. In icehouse poetry, renowned poet Patricia Young and first-book author Dominque Bernier-Cormier will encourage readers to cast their gaze on a pungent, pulsating universe. Full stop. And then, with much ado, we’ll unveil a dazzling array of illustrated books, including three distinctive books of photography. ...Everything Remains Raw records the evolution of the Toronto hip hop scene through graffiti, magazine shoots, and behind-the-scenes documentary photographs. The Lost City documents the vanished neighbourhoods of Saint John razed by the progress of “urban development” in arresting, black-and-white photographs by Ian MacEachern. In One Wave, Ned Pratt transforms the Newfoundland landscape into distillations of form and colour — without a hint of nostalgia.

  • (Re)Mapping, Grounding, Remembering: a Curatorial Study of Way-Finding and Relationships to Place in Contemporary Indigenous Art Practice
    (re)mapping, grounding, remembering: A Curatorial Study of Way-finding and Relationships to Place in Contemporary Indigenous Art Practice by Courtney Miller A thesis exhibition presented to OCAD University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in Criticism and Curatorial Practice Graduate Gallery, OCAD University, March 7-14, 2020 Toronto, Ontario, Canada, March 2020 © Courtney Miller, 2020 ii (re)mapping, grounding, remembering A thesis exhibition by Courtney Miller Master of Fine Arts Criticism and Curatorial Practice 2020 OCAD University Abstract (re)mapping, grounding, remembering explores how the concept of (re)mapping is communicated in Indigenous contemporary artwork to demonstrate place-making methods and maintain Indigenous presence on land/landscape. (Re)mapping indicates Indigenous perceptions of and connections to ancestral land/landscape through themes of responsibility, reciprocity, place-based language, and intergenerational knowledges. This thesis project involves an exhibition featuring the artworks of Anishinaabe artist Bonnie Devine, Blackfoot/Cree artist Richelle Bear Hat, and Métis artist Katherine Boyer. Through literal, symbolic, and discursive gestures of mapping, the artists contribute to a conversation of re-writing histories, shared memories, complex and enduring relationships pertaining to homeland. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my thesis advisor Gerald McMaster and my secondary advisor Selmin Kara for their guidance, my readers Anna Hudson and Johanna Householder, and my previous advisor Suzanne Morrissette. I also would like to thank my husband Zak, my friends, and family for their continuous support. I express my continual appreciation to the artists in my thesis exhibition: Bonnie Devine, Richelle Bear Hat, and Katherine Boyer.

  • When Edouard Manet Exhibited in the Conservatory, Critics Accused Him of Making Concessions to the Public. the P
    AKIMBLOG VANCOUVER CALGARY PRAIRIES WINNIPEG ONTARIO TORONTO MONTREAL EAST COAST ALL MONTREAL TAMMER EL­SHEIKH COETUS FLOREUS A T GALERIE NICOLAS ROBERT August 01, 2018 J’aime 36 When Edouard Manet exhibited In the Conservatory, critics accused him of making concessions to the public. The painting features a well­dressed couple in a greenhouse, comically missing each other’s vacant stares and looking rigid amid an explosion of plant life. More recently the “excessively finished” work was read as an “anxious attempt to reconsolidate the visual field in whose disassembly Manet had already participated.” For art historian Jonathan Crary, the malaise of modernity is signalled in the “fraudulent earthly paradise” of a greenhouse. Coetus Floreus at Galerie Nicolas Robert might also be mistaken for a conservative display of skillfully rendered flowers, figures, and faces. Continuities between the honeymoon phase of European modernity and our more circumspect late­capitalist era appear throughout the exhibition. But if the motif of flowers was used by Manet to stage a conflict between nature and culture, this group exhibition exposes our tendency nowadays to recode nature as culture. Lorna Bauer, The Westmount Conservatory and Greenhouse, 2018, inkjet print A provocative link is made between Manet’s century and our own in Lorna Bauer’s The Westmount Conservatory and Greenhouse. Bauer began photographing the iconic Westmount building between its renovations while preparing for a residency in Paris to study the green spaces of Baron Haussmann’s 19th Century urban renewal program. The photo’s middle ground is occupied by zinnia flowers visible through paint, plaster, or milkshake spatter on a pane of glass.
