n During that time period, grants to individual artists (for impact on women. For example, UNPAC holds economic literacy a the purposes of research, production and professional workshops, teaching women to understand our governments’ development) totaled $1,030,547. Of this amount, $566,186 was M budgets (not so different than the household budgeting many of us awarded to women artists and $464,361 to male artists. When are expert at!). They also educate regarding how seemingly gender- the MAC Major Awards to senior artists are removed from neutral policies like tax cuts actually privilege high wage earners and these totals, the gender gap in dollars is less than 5%, with a negatively impact lower wage earners. Unfortunately, women still slightly lower amount of $444,658 being awarded to 145 earn substantially less than men for many reasons: wage gaps individual women and $464,361 being awarded to 128 individual between traditionally gendered occupations, career-building years men. This indicates that, with the exception of the MAC Major lost as women care for families, old fashioned discrimination, etc. Awards, although men are receiving fewer awards, they receive Recently UNPAC put together a “report card” grading the larger dollar amounts per grant than female artists. Manitoba government on their funding of women. Different sectors such as childcare and housing were graded, yielding an overall mark Although funding amounts are for the most part gender of C- or “considerable action taken but needs improvement”! equal (and in this past year unusually generous in its support Interestingly, the province’s “best subject” in respect to women’s of women through the MAC Majors), gender bias does exist equality was the arts. Manitoba got a nice, big A-, “near fulfillment with respect to artistic disciplines. In some of the Manitoba of women’s equality”. Here’s what the report card said about women Arts Council competitions, all of the filmmakers receiving and the arts in our province: funding were male; in other competitions all of the dancers receiving funding were female. There were also many more awards to male composers than female, and many more awards inside to female craftspeople than male.

She challenges stereotypes of community through her artistic practice, valourizing those often made invisible. Her recent work includes an ongoing photographic drag king trading card project, a life size knitted hay bale and etchings of Winnipeg parking lots.

Diana Thorneycroft and Pauline Greenhill Copyright for artists: a discussion Friday July 2, 2010, noon-1 pm at MAWA

shared and constantly made new by remixing? Or respect for artistic production through notions like authenticity and authorship? How do we balance artists’ rights with those of corporations, who relentlessly strive to control how their intellectual property–images and texts–gets used? Finally, what are the legal ramifications of appropriation/borrowing/stealing? Pauline Greenhill will talk about the law as she knows it, and Diana Thorneycroft will reflect on her experience of breaking it. Law school dropout Pauline Greenhill is Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies at the University of Winnipeg. She has published feminist perspectives on intellectual property issues and art in the Canadian Journal of Women and the Law and Herizons. Photo: Paul Martens Photo: Brian Caines Diana Thorneycroft has exhibited across Canada, the United States and Europe, as well as in Moscow, Tokyo and Sydney. Her latest series of photographic works called Group of Seven Awkward Copyright and intellectual property have become increasingly Moments will be featured at the Winnipeg Art Gallery from June 12 complex as cultural production has changed to include mash ups, - August 22, 2010.

What is our instances of poor judgment, the series satirizes the mythology and cultural ideal?
