    Donna White Prevailing Past July 4th - August 9th, 2008 Reception: Friday, July 4th, 8pm (for members and invited guests only) prevailing past It’s Stampede time. Welcome to Calgary, Canada’s fast growing, oil-rich boom city, Heart of the New West and Home of The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth. If you come by plane, on the drive from the airport you’ll notice oil storage tanks painted with friendly working characters doffing their hats to you. This July, if you drive downtown on 9th Avenue, you might notice a tri-fold billboard with photographs of two women with cowboy hats. As the slats turn, you can see that they too are making a kind of gesture with their hats. And you can see that the hats are not exactly what they seem. The billboard is Donna White’s first project since her recent return to the Calgary area from Grand Prairie, and a stint in Saskatoon where she got her MFA at the University of Saskatchewan. There she made a series of provocative billboards, also of normal-looking women of different ages, who also wore something unusual, in this case strange Elizabethan-looking paper ruffs around their necks. If you went to the Mendel Art Gallery where the 2006 exhibition, Beautiful as well as Brutal, was held, you could see the Cyborg Collars more closely. The lace patterns were virtually tatted by joining digital photographic details of the office buildings at the intersection where the billboards stood. Essentially, the women on the billboards wore the architecture of the buildings where they hypothetically worked.

Humbly, she would call herself a homemaker, which is an understatement for her creative work; providing a culturally rich home environment. Instinctively, she understood the power of multi-modality before it was even a term. A woman of deep faith, she exemplified a vibrant love of God and the Bible. Hers was not a religion of legalism, but of freedom. As a result, the atmosphere she created encouraged creativity; rich with music, art and literature. Early on, she introduced us to children’s literature, as she read aloud Winnie the Pooh, Peter Rabbit and many other illustrated classics. Her deep love of illustrated children’s books was infectious. Later, she continued to encourage a love of literature with an ever growing library that included The Secret Garden, Anne of Green Gables, The Chronicles of Narnia, Lord of the Rings, The Princess and the Goblin and The Little House series.
