  • North As Nature: an Ecocritical Analysis of Royal Canadian Air Force Photography and Leslie Reid’S Mapping Time
    North as Nature: An Ecocritical Analysis of Royal Canadian Air Force Photography and Leslie Reid’s Mapping Time by Hannah Keating A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Art History Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2016 Hannah Keating Abstract A semiotic analysis of visual narratives, this thesis explores representations of Arctic landscape to uncover discourses of North and Nature. In the mid-twentieth century, the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) was tasked with photographing the Canadian Arctic to construct accurate maps of the region. And, following a residency with the Canadian Forces Artists Program in 2013, contemporary artist Leslie Reid began an ongoing series of paintings and photo-mosaics: Mapping Time. This trans historical thesis is dedicated to an ecologically sensitive approach and considers how aerial photographs of the RCAF not only represent space, but also construct narratives of Canadian sovereignty and contribute to an idea of North as Nature. Integrating examples of RCAF photographs into her photomontages, Reid asks viewers to contemplate the history of Arctic mapping and her paintings welcome a critical approach to representations of place, space, and landscape. ii Acknowledgments I would first like to thank my thesis supervisor Dr. Carol Payne of the Art History Department, Carleton University. Always thoughtful in her critiques, generous in her encouragement, and honest with her advice, Prof. Payne was a supportive advisor throughout the project. Her confidence in my abilities as a writer and researcher helped me to pursue my topic with enthusiasm.

  • Growing a Culture: an Artistic History of Ottawa
    Growing a Culture: An Artistic History of Ottawa Lecture Two ART The Studio Club which, "Eva Major-Marothy speculates that the Studio Club may have formed the core of the 'Ottawa Group' which held an exhibition at Hart House in Toronto in January 1924. ( Group of Seven, 1920). This Group included Paul Alfred, Harold Beament, Frank Hennessey, Florence McGillivray, Graham Norwell, Yoshida Sekido, and David Milne, in one of his few incarnations as an 'Ottawa' painter. This 'Group' was intended to be Ottawa’s equivalent to Toronto’s Group of Seven and Montreal’s Beaver Hall Hill Group; it wanted 'to keep alive a healthy interest in art, modern Canadian art in particular.' Soon after the exhibition, Beament and Norwell left for Europe and Milne returned to New York, while the others carried on, individually or in conjunction with the activities of the Art Association.'' (pg 23, History of Art and Artists of Ottawa and Surroundings, 1790-1970: Part II, 1880-1945,The Ottawa Art Gallery, 1995). Paul Alfred Paul Alfred (pseudonym of Alfred Ernest Meister) (1892-1959), was born at Hanley, Staffordshire, England, to Mr. and Mrs. John E. Meister. He was educated at Hanley's Northwood National School from 1896 to 1906, and the Polytechnic School of Art at Hanley between 1902 and 1906. Thereafter, he emigrated to Canada. In 1920, Alfred returned to England where he studied at the Chelsea Polytechnic in London. Upon completion of his degree, he returned to Canada where he became employed as a publicity artist for the Natural Resources Branch of the Department of the Interior from 1921 to 1931.
