First and foremost, approach — where LAC contributes to exhibition initiatives Twe are reminded that this is a site that has always been invested at museums, galleries and other memory institutions across in the goals of cultural exchange and continuity. Our closest Canada — that ensures LAC is visible to the public and the neighbour on the Ottawa River is the active First Nations site value of our collections and services is increasingly known. on Victoria Island, which has served for centuries as a hub of Currently, our loans specialists are preparing for the year ahead knowledge, custom and commerce.

LAC holds Canada’s most extensive collection of the Library of Parliament and the Peace Tower, all to the east of published and archival documentary heritage relating to the LAC; while to the west we overlook the Canadian War Museum. development of Canadian democracy, culture and society. I feel it is essential to our mandate that we continue to exhibit these This panorama serves as a daily reminder of how fortunate materials publically in communities across Canada. LAC is, in terms of its location in the capital, as well as its tremendous national mandate and the opportunities to In the National Capital Region, our situation within a diverse collaborate with peer institutions, both those in the immediate community of memory institutions means there is no shortage vicinity and throughout Canada. This is a site that encourages of opportunities to collaborate on exhibition projects.

For example, over the fall of 2014 and into January In my role as librarian and archivist of Canada, I am particularly 2015, LAC was a major lender for a retrospective exhibition interested in ensuring that the way we deliver our mandate on the work of Canadian artist Alma Duncan at the Ottawa is visible to the public.

As well as original art, maps and textual material on display in those temporary exhibitions, LAC will have a significant presence in the museum’s renewed Canada Hall. parts of the province, with installations planned for the Varley daguerreotypes. Our collaboration with the National Gallery has Art Gallery in Markham, the Art Gallery of Sarnia and the Art also included our role in a major exhibition on the First World Gallery of Windsor.

Experts from the two institutions have examined over 400 items from LAC’s collection with a view for featuring reproductions of art, photographs and textual documents, together with long- term loans of original documentary heritage. This collaboration will provide the public with a wonderful opportunity to encounter LAC’s treasures directly at one of Canada’s most popular and dynamic memory institutions. I should emphasize that it is not always the scale of the collaboration that expresses its significance to partner organizations and the general public. Even the loan of a single item can embody a wealth of shared experience and the fundamental values at the heart of institutions dedicated to acquiring, preserving and providing access to Canada’s cultural memory. In this case, I have in mind LAC’s collaboration with the Canadian War Museum, where we have arranged for the display of a copy of “In Flanders Fields” handwritten by John McCrae’s — an artefact that has provided generation after generation with a focal point for reflection, commemoration and historical insight. LAC has loaned other treasured collection materials in support of 17, 1982 on Parliament Hill, by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth direct public access across the country.

Artistic movement membership and the career profiles of Canadian painters Douglas J. Hodgson* Université du Québec à Montréal Sociologists, psychologists and economists have studied many aspects of the effects on human creativity, especially that of artists, of the social setting in which creative activity takes place. In the last hundred and fifty years or so, the field of advanced creation in visual art has been heavily characterized by the existence of artistic movements, small groupings of artists having aesthetic or programmatic similarities and using the group to further their collective programme, and, one would suppose, their individual careers and creative trajectories.

  • The Institutional Critique of Michèle Provost
    STATUS, POWER AND as the marketplace, collectors, and museums. With Everything must go/Liquidation totale, Provost fits into this long-standing tradition by exploring the phenomenon of the commodification of art and artist through product-making. Further, she self- reflectively situates her experience as an artist within the critique by way of a liqui- dated assemblage of her own artwork. Provost’s wryly crafted installation achieves its particular brand of institutional critique by drawing from “Canadian-content” art history, marrying this content to commercial and populist design practice, and figuring herself as a practising artist within the hypothetical (yet very real) art world of her own THE ARTIST subversive installation. What is this “art world” and where did it come from? Fraser pinpoints the late 1960s as THE INSTITUTIONAL CRITIQUE the time when an idea of a social-structure that included the museum, artist, administra- tor, art studio, art magazines, and collectors, or, as she put it, “the entire field of art as a OF MICHÈLE PROVOST social universe” developed.5 Along with this model emerged a recognition of an insider/ outsider status, highlighted by the performative work and conceptual projects by New York City artists such as Daniel Buren, Michael Asher and German artist Hans Haacke. For example, in 1970, Haacke polled visitors to the MOMA as to their political opinion of Catherine Sinclair Norman Rockefeller, who sat on the museum’s Board of Directors, thereby calling into question the activities and direction of the organization.6 In Canada of 1969, conceptual In 2006, Bristol-based street artist Banksy, famous for his anonymity and critical graf- artists Iain and Ingrid Baxter, as N.E.

    2019 Conference of the Universities Art Room AssociationDufferin of Canada Back to schedule Congrès 2019 de l’Association d’art des universités du Canada October 25–27 octobre 2019 Hilton Quebec 1 Message du président L’intérêt grandissant que suscite le congrès de l’AAUC fait en sorte que nous devons nous adapter à la croissance tout en préservant le caractère informel qui, au fil de plusieurs décennies, s’est avéré adaptable et productif. Cette situation enviable explique que le congrès de cette année se déroule dans un centre de congrès, un format qui sera de plus en plus important à l’avenir. Je suis heureux de terminer mon mandat de président lors de cet événement remarquable et dans ce cadre magnifique. Je tiens à remercier les organisateurs Ersy Contogouris, Erin Silver et Maxime Coulombe, et je suis ravi de voir le nouveau numéro de RACAR, qu’Ersy a codirigé avec Mélanie Boucher, et qui porte sur les tableaux vivants. Je remercie également Fran Pauzé, l’administratrice de l’AAUC, pour son travail au soutien du congrès de cette année et pour m’avoir aidé à rester sur la bonne voie pendant mon mandat au CA de l’AAUC, d’abord comme trésorier, puis comme président. Les compétences financières de Fran — un modèle d’efficacité et de clarté, je le dis sou- vent — expliquent en grande partie le succès durable de l’Association. Je me sens privilégié d’avoir été au service de ma communauté professionnelle de cette manière et j’ai hâte de participer de façons différentes au cours des années à venir, en commençant par le congrès de Vancouver en 2020.

  • From the National Gallery of Canada
    FROM THE NATIONAL GALLERY OF CANADA The View from Here introduces viewers to the richness and diversity of the National Gallery's Canadian collection. Designed for schools and museums as well as for the general public, the video is organized thematically, and features works by Canadian artists from the eighteenth century to the present. Leading viewers through the galleries, the video focusses playfully and imaginatively on a variety.of paintings, sculpture, prints, drawings, and photographs. A short introduction on the founding of the Gallery is followed by an exploration of nine themes animated by quotes from well-known Canadian artists, which impart a personal flavour to the "acts" of this visual survey. Early Days examines religious and secular works that reveal the impact of a colonial, European culture on eastern Canada up to Confederation. Looking at Ourselves is a kaleidoscope of faces and figures from all parts of the country over the last century ari a half. From Sea to Sea captures the wonders of our vast landscape, from Newfoundland to British Columbia, from the forty-ninth parallel to the Arctic Ocean. Diversions surveys such pastimes as parties, music-making, card playing, tobogganing, and string games. Confrontations deals with conflict, war, civil strife, and protest, and Away from Home briefly looks at works done by Canadian artists abroad. Workers celebrates the labour of Canadian men and women - on the land, on the sea, and in the factories and mines. Town and Country explores our built environments, from a solitary farmhouse to the port of Montreal. The video corodes with Visions and Mysteries, a journey through abstraction, the realm of t(p.spirit, and the allegories of magic and myth.
