  • Contemporary American Art at the National Gallery of Canada (1967
    Contemporary American Art at the National Gallery of Canada (1967–79): The Surprising Legacy of Brydon E. Smith by Ian C. Ferguson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Art History Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario ©2014 Ian C. Ferguson P a g e | ii Abstract This thesis draws upon Bruno Latour’s concept of Actor-Network-Theory (ANT) to assess the active mediator role played by Brydon E. Smith, the National Gallery of Canada’s (NGC) first Curator of Contemporary Art, as the NGC began to collect postwar American art. Considering the ensuing expansion of its collection from 1967 to 1979, I focus specifically on Smith’s survey exhibitions of artists James Rosenquist (1968), Dan Flavin (1969), Donald Judd (1975) and their related acquisitions, as well as one by Jackson Pollock. Documentary sources in the NGC archives and a questionnaire and interviews with former colleagues of Smith have provided important insights into his curatorial choices and methodology. This research clarifies how curatorial agency may shape the aesthetics and coherence of a public collection. The NGC’s newly acquired credibility in a broader North American cultural context is demonstrated through the critical reception of Smith’s exhibitions, publications and acquisitions. P a g e | iii Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge in the first instance the sustained support from staff at the NGC Library and Archives and, in particular, Cyndie Campbell, Philip Dombowsky, and Peter Trépanier. NGC Chief Curator Paul Lang kindly authorized access to curatorial files.

It Prayers. is obvious that Jennifer Carroll's intentions were not political in the least, but merely a gesture of gratitude toward her sponsors, [Translation] her friends, her family and everyone who had supported her. ROYAL ASSENT As for Canadian swimming coach Dave Johnson, it seems he may have had an acute over-reaction in calling for the young NOTICE athlete's suspension for six months for what she did. Is Jennifer Carroll not a Canadian from Quebec, after all? The Hon. the Speaker informed the Senate that the following communication had been received: Furthermore, we did not get all up in arms when Catriona Lemay-Doan waved the flag of Saskatchewan at the Salt Lake RIDEAU HALL City Winter Olympics. Why should so much significance be attached to the actions of this athlete from Quebec? I am just December 12, 2002 asking.
