  • Framework 2/18
    FrameWork 2/18 Lauren Fournier on Althea Thauberger the reparative practice of re-performing Legend: - - -> performativityi ~~~ interpellationii (a) re-performing In Althea Lorraine, Althea Thauberger stages a performative intervention into the NFB’s archives, fixating on the figure of Lorraine Althea Monk. The artist sees herself in her, maybe: her name sandwiched between this historical figure’s first name and surname: Althea.iii A point of connection. It’s not the only one. Both are women, both have worked as producers and directors of a sort, in different contexts and in different ways. Lorraine Monk was the executive producer of the NFB’s still image division circa 1967: she developed “The People Tree” for Expo 67’s Canadian Pavilion in Montreal. And now, fifty years later, we reach another point of nationalistic relevance: the sesquicentennial. Artists revolt, protest, subvert. Althea Thauberger develops the film L’arbre est dans ses feuilles (The tree is in its leaves), which is shown in Montreal in the MAC’s 2017 exhibition In Search of Expo 67. Lorraine Monk, this figure of white womanhood, of nation-building, of middle-class Canadiana. She’s problematic and we’re paranoid.iv Objects like grey cards, a work desk, a glass ceiling. Monk’s eyes looking downward, then up: at least she gets to see. Althea is attuned to the rhythms of re-performing. This is an integral part of her practice: re-performing, re- casting. Now, Althea moves from her place behind the camera, from her role as director, to the role of director-actor, director-artist, she begins to pose.

    Notes 1 For a good overview of photographic art in Canada, see Martha Langford, “A Short History of Photography, 1900–2000,” in Brian Foss, Anne Whitelaw and Sandra Paikowsky eds., The Visual Arts in Canada: The Twentieth Century (Don Mills, ON: Oxford University Press, 2010), 279– 311. 2 See especially Martha Langford, “Introduction,” in Contemporary Canadian Photography from the Collection of the National Film Board (Edmonton, Alta: Hurtig Publishers, 1984), 7–16. 3 For an inciteful application of the notion of “field of art” to photography, specifically in 1970s Montreal, see Lise Lamarche, “La photographie par la bande. Notes de recherche à partir des expositions collectives de photographie à Montreal (et un peu ailleurs) entre 1970 et 1980,” in Francine Couture ed., Exposer l’art contemporain du Québec. Discours d’intention et d’accompagnement (Montreeal: Centre de diffusion 3D, 2003), 221–265. 4 The first issue of Impressions was printed in Toronto in March 1970. The original editors were John Prendergrast and John F. Philips, co-founder of the Baldwin Street Gallery of Photography, Toronto. Subsequent co-editors would include Shin Sugino and Isaac Applebaum. The magazine aimed to showcase photographers whose work is “too personal to find an automatic commercial market.” In October 1970, the first issue of Image Nation appeared in Toronto. Edited variously by David Hlynsky, Fletcher Starbuck and others, it succeeded the Rochdale College Image Nation, published in 1969–1970 by a printing collective based at the short-lived “alternative” Rochdale College, Toronto. Image Nation was aimed primarily at photographic artists active within the parallel gallery network across Canada.

  • Photography ‘75: the Still Photography Division’S “Women’S Show” As an Act of Subtle Protest
    Carleton University Render Volume 7 Photography ‘75: The Still Photography Division’s “Women’s Show” as an Act of Subtle Protest Katie Lydiatt Art History (SSAC), Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada Abstract This paper examines a largely under-explored exhibition organized by the Still Photography Division in Ottawa in 1975, appropriately titled Photography ‘75. Featuring the works of eighty-three women photographers, the show was organized around the distinction of the year 1975 as the International Year of the Woman. Although it claimed to capture a “feminine way of seeing” and a national vision of Canadian life, this exhibition marked a significant contribution to the history of Canadian photography through its engagement with contemporary debates surrounding photography as art, and women’s roles as practitioners of the medium. While the exhibition’s opinions on women and photography date itself, it was successful at professionalizing women artists and contributing to collections of female photographers in the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography (CMCP) and the Canadian Photography Institute (CPI) at the National Gallery of Canada (NGC). Keywords: Canadian Women’s Photography, Photography ’75, Still Photography Division, International Year of the Woman, Canadian Women’s Art History, Contemporary Canadian Photography, Suzy Lake, Lynne Cohen, Barbara Astman photography, and a challenge to examine some worn stereotypes about In the summer of 1975, the National Film art, women, and the world in general. Board’s Still Photography Division exhibited over Featuring new concepts, new artists, 100 works by eighty-three female Canadian new perspectives in traditional photographers in honour of International Year of realization, and new formats exploring the Woman.
