  • Robert Langen Art Gallery Exhibit Features Video of Nighttime Military Raid
    NEWS RELEASE CONTACT Suzanne Luke, Curator Robert Langen Art Gallery 519-884-0710 ext. 3801 or [email protected] Kevin Crowley, Director Communications & Public Affairs, Wilfrid Laurier University 519-884-0710 ext. 3070 or [email protected] OCT. 24, 2014 | 104-14 Robert Langen Art Gallery exhibit features video of nighttime military raid WATERLOO – The latest exhibition at Wilfrid Laurier University’s Robert Langen Art Gallery features a video installation filmed during a nighttime raid of a suspected bomb facilitator’s home in Afghanistan’s Kunar province. The exhibit, entitled Nightwalk, presents a moving experimental video that captures the complexities of military conflict and human displacement. The artist behind Nightwalk is Larry Towell, a renowned Canadian photographer who has photographed war zones around the world. For Towell, producing the video-based Nightwalk is a departure from his usual work, which revolves around still photography. “I have spent my life documenting many of the world's most violent conflicts, from Central America to the Middle East,” said Towell. “In order to challenge the dominant consensus of my culture and to work from a peace and human rights perspective, it is necessary for me to physically engage. My photographs are not planned nor composed in advance. I do not set them up in a studio, and I do not anticipate that the audience will necessarily share my opinion.” In addition to his numerous international awards, Towell holds the distinction of being the first Canadian to be associated with Magnum, the world’s most prestigious photo agency. His photography has been published in magazines such as LIFE, The New York Times Magazine, Esquire, Elle, Rolling Stone, Geo and Stern, in addition to his several exhibitions in Canada, the U.S.

  • Glass Beads for Teachers
    GLASS BEADS FOR TEACHERS A small collection of images of beads and beadwork serves as a context for further investigation and study of how HBC, through its trade with First Nations, was a major contributor to Canada’s story. Information about Glass Beads • Beading is a craft that has been practised by almost every culture in the world. • Glass beads were highly valued by the First Nations because they were durable and came in a wide variety of colours. • Before glass beads arrived on the scene, the First Nations were accustomed to using pieces of bone, shell or rock to adorn their clothing. Quillwork using dyed porcupine quills was also popular. • HBC sourced beads from Europe specifically for the trade. They introduced glass beads from Venice, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, and Germany to the First Nations in exchange for provisions or simply to gain their goodwill. • Beads were a staple of the trade right up to the modern period. Seed beads were the most popular over time. • The First Nations incorporated the beads into a well-established tradition of craft, custom and beliefs. • Beads became common items to offer in gift exchanges when alliances and treaties were formed. • The First Nations adapted European materials to their traditional ways of making clothing and accessories, substituting cloth for hide, beads for quillwork, and silk ribbon appliqué for painted designs. • Native beading became something of a commodity in the Victorian period. First Nations began a craft tradition of making beaded items for commercial sale back to non-natives • Starting in the early 1800s, the First Nations developed beaded souvenirs.
