Jacob’s Pillow is the longest-running dance festival in the United States, a National Historic Landmark, and a National Meal of Arts recipient. Founded in 1933, the Pillow has recently added to its rich history by expanding into a year-round center for dance research and development. 2018 Season highlights include U.S. company debuts, world premieres, international artists, newly commissioned work, historic Festival connections, and the formal presentation of work developed through the organization’s growing residency program at the Pillow Lab. International artists will travel to Becket, Massachusetts, from Denmark, Israel, Belgium, Australia, France, Spain, and Scotland. Notably, representation from across the United States includes New York City, Minneapolis, Houston, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Chicago, among others. “It has been such a thrill to invite artists to the Pillow Lab, welcome community members to our social dances, and have this sacred space for dance animated year-round. Now, we look forward to Festival 2018 where we invite audiences to experience the full spectrum of dance while delighting in the ​ magical and historic place that is Jacob’s Pillow.

Since the local haciendas were disbanded in 1962 the economy and population o f the village have both declined and the remaining villagers have increased their engagement in the money economy. Nevertheless most contemporary villagers were suspicious o f urban Ecuador which they perceived as being organised exclusively according to trade transactions and saw themselves as belonging to a distinct moral community characterised by participation in exchange relations. Cabalano society was largely ordered according to the logic o f a 'good faith economy* and any breach o f the obligations inherent in exchange relations threatened not just the relationships between participants but the social order o f the Whole village.
  • LATE COMPANY by Jordan Tannahill

    LATE COMPANY by Jordan Tannahill

    Press Information ! ! VIBRANT NEW WRITING | UNIQUE REDISCOVERIES Spring-Summer Season 2017 | April–July 2017 The European premiere LATE COMPANY by Jordan Tannahill. Directed by Michael Yale. Designed by Zahra Mansouri. Lighting by Nic Farman. Sound by Christopher Prosho. Presented by Stage Traffic Productions in association with Neil McPherson for the Finborough Theatre. Cast: Todd Boyce. David Leopold. Alex Lowe. Lucy Robinson. Lisa Stevenson. “When you wake up in a cold sweat at night and you think someone is watching you, well it’s me. I’m watching you. And that cold sweat on your body, those are my tears…“ As part of the Finborough Theatre’s celebrations of Canada’s 150th birthday, the European debut of “the hottest name in Canadian theatre”, Jordan Tannahill, with the European premiere of Late Company playing at the Finborough Theatre for a four week limited season on Tuesday, 25 May 2017 (Press Nights: Thursday, 27 April 2017 and Friday, 28 April 2017 at 7.30pm). One year after the suicide of their teenage son, Debora and Michael sit down to dinner with their son’s bully and his parents. Closure is on the menu, but accusations are the main course as good intentions are gradually stripped away to reveal layers of parental, sexual, and political hypocrisy – at a dinner party where grief is the loudest guest. Written with sensitivity and humour, Late Company explores restorative justice, cyber bullying, and is both a timely and timeless meditation on a parent’s struggle to comprehend the monstrous and unknown in their child. Playwright Jordan Tannahill has been described as “the future of Canadian theatre” by NOW Magazine.

    Borderline Research Histories of Art between Canada and the United States, c. 1965–1975 Adam Douglas Swinton Welch A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Adam Douglas Swinton Welch 2019 Borderline Research Histories of Art between Canada and the United States, c. 1965–1975 Adam Douglas Swinton Welch Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto 2019 Abstract Taking General Idea’s “Borderline Research” request, which appeared in the first issue of FILE Megazine (1972), as a model, this dissertation presents a composite set of histories. Through a comparative case approach, I present eight scenes which register and enact larger political, social, and aesthetic tendencies in art between Canada and the United States from 1965 to 1975. These cases include Jack Bush’s relationship with the critic Clement Greenberg; Brydon Smith’s first decade as curator at the National Gallery of Canada (1967–1975); the exhibition New York 13 (1969) at the Vancouver Art Gallery; Greg Curnoe’s debt to New York Neo-dada; Joyce Wieland living in New York and making work for exhibition in Toronto (1962–1972); Barry Lord and Gail Dexter’s involvement with the Canadian Liberation Movement (1970–1975); the use of surrogates and copies at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (1967–1972); and the Eternal Network performance event, Decca Dance, in Los Angeles (1974). Relying heavily on my work in institutional archives, artists’ fonds, and research interviews, I establish chronologies and describe events. By the close of my study, in the mid-1970s, the movement of art and ideas was eased between Canada and the United States, anticipating the advent of a globalized art world.

    A Map of Toronto’s Cultural Facilities A Cultural Facilities Analysis 03.01.10 Prepared for: Rita Davies Managing Director of Culture Division of Economic Development, Culture and Tourism Prepared by: ERA Architects Inc. Urban Intelligence Inc. Cuesta Systems Inc. Executive Summary In 1998, seven municipalities, each with its own distinct cultural history and infrastructure, came together to form the new City of Toronto. The process of taking stock of the new city’s cultural facilities was noted as a priority soon after amalgamation and entrusted to the newly formed Culture Division. City Council on January 27, 2000, adopted the recommendations of the Policy and Finance Committee whereby the Commissioner of Economic Development, Culture and Tourism was requested to proceed with a Cultural Facilities Masterplan including needs assessment and business cases for new arts facilities, including the Oakwood - Vaughan Arts Centre, in future years. This report: > considers the City of Toronto’s role in supporting cultural facilities > documents all existing cultural facilities > provides an approach for assessing Toronto’s cultural health. Support for Toronto’s Cultural Facilities Through the Culture Division, the City of Toronto provides both direct and indirect support to cultural activities. Direct support consists of : > grants to individual artists and arts organizations > ongoing operating and capital support for City-owned and operated facilities. Indirect support consists of: > property tax exemptions > below-market rents on City-owned facilities > deployment of Section 37 development agreements. A Cultural Facilities Inventory A Cultural Facility Analysis presents and interprets data about Toronto’s cultural facilities that was collected by means of a GIS (Global Information System) database.

It is informed by the writings of George Steiner, who advanced a typology of difficult forms in poetry. The major works of Jack Chambers (The Hart of London), Michael Snow (La Region Centrale), and Joyce Wieland (Reason Over Passion) illustrate the ways in which a poetic vanguard in cinema is anchored in an aesthetic of difficulty.
  • The Limón Legacy Still Thrives After 70 Years by Jeff Slayton March 25, 2017

    The Limón Legacy Still Thrives After 70 Years by Jeff Slayton March 25, 2017

    The Limón Legacy Still Thrives After 70 Years By Jeff Slayton March 25, 2017 The Limón Dance Company - Photo by Joseph Schembri “There is a dance for every single human experience.” José Limón The Limón Dance Company lit up the stage at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, presenting three works choreographed by José Limón over seventy years ago, and two recent works by Colin Connor and Kate Weare. Thanks to dance artists like Carla Maxwell, Risa Steinberg, Gary Masters and the new Artistic Director Colin Connor, the company has kept the Limón legacy alive and vibrant. In addition, the company continues to present new works by seasoned and up-and-coming choreographers. Born in Culiacan, Mexico, José Limón (1908-1972) formed his company in 1946 after performing for 10 years with modern dance pioneers Doris Humphrey and Charles Weidman. Throughout his life, Limón continued to create new works; his last one being Carlota in 1972, the year of his death. In 1997, this great dance master was inducted into the Hall of Fame at the National Museum of Dance in Saratoga Springs, NY. The program opened with Limón’s CONCERTO GROSSO which premiered in 1945 at the Humphrey-Weidman Studio in New York. Through his choreography, Limón artfully and brilliantly visualizes Antonio Vivaldi’s Concerto #11 in D Minor, Opus 3. The work is, simply put, pure and joyful dancing. Staged and directed by former company member Risa Steinberg, dancers Kathryn Alter, Elise Drew Leon and Jesse Obremski performed with great musicality, clarity and ease. CONCERTO GROSSO is a jewel and these three dance artists are wonderful in it.

    CANADIAN PRIVATE COPYING COLLECTIVE SOCIÉTÉ CANADIENNE DE PERCEPTION DE LA COPIE PRIVÉE 150 Eglinton Ave. East, Suite 403 Toronto, Ontario M4P 1E8 416 486 6832 1 800 892 7235 416 486 3064 [FAX] www.cpcc.ca CPCC CPCC C-32 Submission Background The Canadian Private Copying Collective (CPCC) is the non-profit organization responsible for collecting private copying royalties and distributing them to songwriters, performers, music publishers and record companies, as well as promoting the interests of rights holders as they pertain to private copying. For over a decade, the CPCC has represented copyright holders before the Copyright Board of Canada. The Board establishes the levies that may be collected after trial-like hearings where experts, representing music rights holders and organizations that represent consumers and businesses that sell leviable blank media, present evidence and are cross-examined. The private copying levy has been an important part of the Canadian copyright regime since 1999, when the first private copying tariff was certified by the Copyright Board, following amendments made to the Copyright Act (the “Act”) in 1997 to allow for a levy to be placed on blank audio recording media. Currently, the levy only applies to blank CDs and MiniDiscs, at a rate of 29 cents per unit, and is paid by manufacturers and importers of these blank media to the CPCC for distribution to rights holders. The private copying levy has provided an effective mechanism whereby consumers are allowed to make copies of music for their personal use without infringing copyright and, in exchange, music creators receive royalties that recognize the value of private copies of their work.
