X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>As members of the Department of Fine Arts\
 , located in the Lasserre Building\, and the Belkin Gallery on the north en
 d of the campus\, we were able to witness first-hand the over-whelming secu
 rity measures and police presence that transformed the university into a pr
 ison camp on Monday November 24th and Tuesday November 25. We wish to regis
 ter\, in the strongest terms\, our outrage that the university became the s
 ite for serious violations of the liberties that are basic to our democrati
 c society and which are guaranteed in our Canadian charter of Rights and Fr
 eedoms.</p><p>In view of these events\, we support the announcement from yo
 u office last week that the UBC Administration will encourage open discussi
 on and debate in the coming year around the issues raised by the presence o
 f APEC at the University of British Columbia.</p><p>However\, while we supp
 ort with enthusiasm the creation of new graduate fellowships to support M.D
 DA and Ph.D. research\, given the shameful events that unfolded on our camp
 us as a result of APEC\, we cannot accept that any such fellowship "commemo
 rate" the APEC meeting help here. Also\, Given that the issue of human righ
 ts were not placed on the APEC agenda\, and given that our own students had
  their civil rights threatened and removed\, we urge that the Administratio
 n re-name this fellowship. The new name should reflect that it was in fact 
 issues and freedom of expression that were ultimately raised by APEC's pres
 ence on UBC's campus.</p>

  in such mediums as installation\, multi-media\, painting\, photography and
  sculpture\, this is an excellent opportunity to view an exciting\, new gen
 eration of Canadian artists:</p><p>Referencing the gallery space itself\, <
 strong>Trevor Mahovsky</strong> uses minimalist sculpture and 19th C animat
 ion devices to project "shadow scenes" onto the gallery wall and sounds int
 o the environment.</p><p>Working from drawings and photographs of his famil
 y\, <strong>Paulo Majano's</strong> large-scale paintings and intricately r
 endered small-scale busts take up the issues of portraiture and familial re
 lations.</p><p><strong>Rhonda Weppler</strong> deals with the ideas of kits
 ch and domestic spaces by presenting a series of views of the altered reali
 ty of a child’s dollhouse through black and white photographs and full-scal
 e sculpture of furniture and household items.</p><p>Flower Painting as a ge
 nre has been generally overlooked as a subject in art history. <strong>Vict
 or K. T. Wong</strong> has chosen flowers for their distinct symbolism base
 d on mythology and iconography. His paintings call up ideas related to deca
 dence\, desire\, and the relationship between nature and culture.</p>

 s pleased to present this year's Masters of Fine Arts graduate exhibition: 
 Dogwood. This is an excellent opportunity to view the work of five emerging
  artists whose practices explore the mediums of painting\, photography\, vi
 deo and installation. An illustrated catalogue will be available.</p><p>In 
 a city made famous for photographs\, <strong>Sean Alward</strong> examines 
 the current possibilities of painting. His oil on wood board works juxtapos
 e artifice and order with notions of primal nature.</p><p>In The Next Cabin
  (2000—2002)\, <strong>Gavin Hipkins</strong> exhibits photographic fragmen
 ts of sites not always pictured in travel brochures of the North American W
 est Coast.</p><p><strong>Tim Lee's</strong> video installation and two phot
 ographic panels use the strategy of the sight gag to stage humorous plays o
 n the notion of the amateur comedian and musician.</p><p><strong>Natasha Mc
 Hardy</strong> disrupts the clean white cube of the modernist gallery space
  with an installation\, a mockumentary and a suite of images united with a 
 common material: bubble gum.</p><p>In her project entitled Erewhon (Nowhere
 ) (2001—2002)\, <strong>Ann Shelton</strong>presents a series of photograph
 s that infuse images of uncertain or unknown sites with uncanny resonance.<

 ong>Jerry Allen\, Dick Averns\, Christine D’Onofrio\, </strong>and<strong> 
 Jennifer Pickering</strong></p><p>Occurring at a juncture of professional a
 rt practice\, historical study and critical theory\, this exhibition marks 
 the graduation of four artists from the MFA in Visual Art program at the Un
 iversity of British Columbia. Through their diverse investigations\, artist
 s Jerry Allen\, Dick Averns\, Christine D’Onofrio and Jennifer Pickering ha
 ve generated a variety of works\, each inflected by the theoretical focus a
 nd global outlook of the MFA course. Despite their differing interests and 
 approaches\, however\, all four artists are concerned with the place of the
 ir work in relation to particular social contradictions.</p><p>The subjects
  of <strong>Jerry Allen's</strong> portraits are vaguely recognisable celeb
 rities who seem to have been borne into their brief fame by historical circ
 umstances beyond their control\, or who appear to be marked by deep inner e
 xperience. Ostensibly naïve\, the paintings depict individuals whose ambigu
 ous cultural status sustains the works’ uncanny quality. Through a careful\
 , protracted painting technique\, Allen seems to restore to these slightly 
 bereft subjects a significance denied by cycles of media fixation and negle
 ct.</p><p>In contrast\, <strong>Dick Averns'</strong> performance art explo
 its its immediacy to infiltrate seats of power\, aiming to incite public aw
 areness of political duplicity. Averns’ practice involves performances in t
 he public domain\, media interventions and photographic works that assert t
 he promise of reviving an avant-garde practice in the context of contempora
 ry political events.</p><p>Through photography\, <strong>Christine D'Onofri
 o</strong> produces aesthetically engaging works that combine and repositio
 n tropes of femininity. D’Onofrio’s work obliquely figures the female body 
 through the aesthetic deployment of such gendered trappings as hair\, panti
 es\, and nail polish\, examining consumption\, desire and the unconscious.<
 /p><p>Finally\, <strong>Jennifer Pickering's</strong> book sculptures alter
  the institutional forms through which knowledge is circulated. By staging 
 interventions in existing structures such as galleries or libraries\, Picke
 ring’s works play with the physical conditions delimiting knowledge.</p><p>
 This exhibition's title acknowledges its host\, the Morris and Helen Belkin
  Art Gallery for supporting professional artists emerging from the MFA prog
 ram in the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory. Both the Gall
 ery and the Department support graduate students by promoting connections b
 etween art history\, art practice\, and curatorial studies.</p><p><em>For f

 the critical strategies of artists Lorna Brown\, Margot Leigh Butler\, Ally
 son Clay\, Laiwan\, Jin-me Yoon\, and the collaborative groups Worksite and
  the Association for Noncommercial Culture in relation to shifts in feminis
 t theory and practice during the 1980s. The exhibition focuses on book work
 s\, journal interventions\, installations\, and ephemera addressing issues 
 of gender\, identity\, language and representation.</p><p>Rejecting a notio
 n of feminism as fixed\, stable\, and past\, the title of this exhibition r
 efers instead to multiple\, diverse\, and continually shifting investigatio
 ns of differently gendered and racialized identities. In the 1980s and 1990
 s\, activist groups representing provisional alignments of race\, class\, g
 ender\, and sexuality challenged the exclusionary biases of institutions in
 cluding feminism and the mainstream art system. At the same time\, a number
  of artists drew upon feminist\, psychoanalytic and post-colonial theory in
  order to critique the dominant systems of representation involved in formu
 lating and fixing identities.<br />The exhibition coincides with InFest: In
 ternational Artist Run Culture\, a Pacific Association of Artist Run Centre
 s event.</p><p>Curated by <strong>Jessie Caryl</strong>. It is the first in

 Trudeau along with the Warhol inspired "Campbell’s Souper Dress\," and vint
 age magazines.</p><p><em>Manufacturing Mod: Metal Tunics to Paper Dresses</
 em>examines challenges to the couture industry in the mid to late 1960s. Th
 e garments imply simultaneous anxieties and curiosities about technological
  ‘progress’ and provoke questions about the interrelationships among 1960s 
 women’s clothing design/production and an expanded market economy. Shifts i
 n consumer culture\, the global dynamics of the space race\, new technology
 \, and contemporary art intersect in these experimental garments. Paco Raba
 nne’s metal tunics reference medieval armor with a futuristic vision of clo
 thing as an erotically revealing and decorative form. Paper dresses reject 
 the pretense of corporeal protection while picturing icons of consumer cult
 ure and contemporary art. These experimental garments exemplify the utopian
  ideology of modern living and propose liberation from the labor of regular
  clothing maintenance and promise a carefree lifestyle – ideas that are as 
 timely now as they were in the 1960s. Fashion\, politics\, and art were as 
 entangled then as they are today.</p><p>Curated by <strong>Jamila Dunn</str

  of 25 artists in dialogue with the inner city spaces surrounding the Johan
 nesburg Art Gallery in South Africa. The artists staged performances and in
 terventions throughout August 2003 in Joubert Park\, a transit hub for the 
 city characterized by the co-existence of crime\, high unemployment and hom
 elessness with the dynamics of street trading and dense commuter traffic. T
 his exhibition brings together documentation of the projects in video and p
 hotography\, examining both contradictions and connections between the Gall
 ery and its seemingly makeshift environment.<br />The project is presented 
 at Interurban\, a new art centre in Vancouver at Hastings Street and Carral
 l. Makeshift examines artists’ engagement with the urban transformation of 
 postapartheid Johannesburg\, in the context of current debates about the re
 lationship of artists and galleries to the Downtown Eastside.  Keren Ben Ze
 ev and Merryn Singer of the Johannesburg-based artist collective\, The Joub
 ert Park Project\, will lead a series of discussions and workshops for neig

  pm</p><p>Six years after the Or Gallery presented its last exhibition in i
 ts Downtown Eastside location\, 112 West Hastings will be re-opening its do
 ors. During the month of May\, the exhibition Picturing the Downtown Eastsi
 de will re-activate this historical building\, once a nexus for Vancouver’s
  art scene\, that included the Perel Gallery\,  Artspeak\, the Kootenay Sch
 ool of Writing\, the Or Gallery and artist studios.</p><p>Picturing the Dow
 ntown Eastside looks at this neighbourhood as subject\, presenting various 
 photographic and video works and alternative community-based projects that 
 address the area’s architecture and social landscape. The exhibition situat
 es itself within a discourse about definitions of community and the complex
 ities of representation within Vancouver’s most socially and economically c
 hallenged\, yet at the same time vibrant\, neighbourhood. The juxtaposition
  of works and artistic strategies evoke questions about how artists and the
  general public negotiate and identify the space of the Downtown Eastside a
 nd how we formulate cognitive and visual maps of this area. A public forum 
 held during the exhibition will extend this debate and dialogue to a larger
  participating public in Vancouver.</p><p>This exhibition presents work by 
 Rebecca Belmore\, Rita Beiks\, Clint Burnham\, Stan Douglas\, Arni Haraldss
 on\, Sharon Kravitz\, and Susan Stewart\, all of whom have represented the 
 Downtown Eastside in their past work and community projects. The show also 
 features work by resident Downtown Eastside painter\, Paul St. Germain and 
 graffiti artist Hermes\, as well as site-specific work by Margot Leigh Butl
 er. In addition\, the desmedia collective will re-initiate their Downtown E
 astside video archive project with a camera set up once a week in the galle
 ry for people in the community to tell their stories\, and share their poem
 s and songs.</p><p>Curated by <strong>Charo Neville</strong>. This is the f
 irst in a series of exhibitions curated by Master of Arts candidates in the
  Critical Curatorial Studies Program at the University of British Columbia\

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening Reception & Performances: Thursda
 y June 30th\, 2005\, 6-9 pm. Show runs July 1 - August 14.</h4><p><strong>P
 atrick Baumüller & Severin Hofmann\, Catrin Bolt\, Marlene Haring\, monochr
 om\, Hans Schabus</strong></p><p>Emerging Viennese artists come to Vancouve
 r to rewrite their cultural history. Guest Curator <strong>Séamus Kealy.</s
 trong></p><p>Unterspiel is an exhibition of five contemporary Viennese arti
 sts/artist groups.  This exhibition accounts for a variety of artistic stra
 tegies exploring the problematics of contemporary art production in Vienna.
   The works in this group exhibition have a specific\, sometimes belated\, 
 relation to a tradition of avant-gardism that has its origins in fin de sie
 cle Vienna\, but at the same time these artists are paradoxically root in t
 he provocative actions of the Viennese Actionists.  In the wake of the Acti
 onists’ inherently political work\,  ontemporary Viennese art often engages
  in socio-political issues\, whether around notions of Austrian identity\, 
 or in confrontation to political or art institutions.</p><p>This exhibition
  is organized by artist and independent curator<strong>Séamus Kealy</strong
 >\, a candidate in the Curatorial Program at UBC\, and is a co-production o
 f The Contemporary Art Gallery and The University of British Columbia.</p><
 p><strong>Severin Hofmann & Patrick Baumüller:</strong> This artist duo wil
 l interact with the public in their site-specific Würstelstand outside the 
 gallery.  Based on the ubiquitous Vienna hotdog stands\, this caravan will 
 be a site of performance\, cultural reflection\, and the distribution of sa
 usages into Vancouver’s downtown district to experiment with notions of 'cu
 ltural difference' directly with the public.  Altogether\, these artists ar
 e transplanting a clichéd image of Austrian culture.</p><p><strong>Catrin B
 olt & Marlene Haring:</strong> This former artist duo will present individu
 al work that follows their collaborative work.  These young artists have ma
 de video and performance works that are politically and sexually provocativ
 e\, such as the 2003 video\, Call Boys\, involving male prostitutes\, or re
 cent performances in politically-charged contexts such as government buildi
 ngs.</p><p><strong>monochrom:</strong>  Public volunteers will be invited t
 o be buried alive.  With a small\, private graveyard set up in the gallery\
 , willing individuals may come to experience their own mortality.  As part 
 of their “Experience” tour through the US and Canada\, this art collective 
 will also present a lecture on Wednesday\, June 29th at the Emily Carr Inst
 itute of Art and Design.</p><p><strong>Hans Schabus:</strong>  Schabus\, wh
 o represents Austria at this year’s Venice Biennale\, will present the vide
 o installation “Western”\, a complex work that questions notions of post-wa
 r Viennese identity.  In this work\, Schabus boats through the famous catac
 omb sewers beneath Vienna\, the same place where Orson Wells had run from t
 he authorities in the 1949 film The Third Man.</p><p>An exhibition catalogu
 e with a text by curator Séamus Kealy will be available.</p><p><em>The exhi

 g Reception: 15 September at 8:00 pm.</p><p><strong>Erin Coates\, Leanne Co
 ughlin\, Babak Golkar\, Peter Mintchev\, Daria Tavoularis </strong>and<stro
 ng> Rahel Wachs</strong></p><p>While the idiom derives from racetrack lingo
  (referring to the suitability of different horses for different courses)\,
  Horses for Courses points to the diverse practices of the Master of Fine A
 rts graduates presented in this exhibition. This is an excellent opportunit
 y to view the work of six emerging artists who work in the mediums of video
 \, sculpture\, performance and drawing.</p><p><strong>Erin Coates'</strong>
  artwork focuses on structures that mediate the urban experience: telecommu
 nications\, transit networks\, street furniture and signage\, architectural
  forms\, and surveillance systems. Her work articulates alternative modes o
 f seeing and framing urban space. It brings into view what is within the vi
 sual periphery\, the ‘blind spot’ of the familiar\, and what is overseen by
  urban design.</p><p>Using the domestic interior as a site of inquiry\, <st
 rong>Leanne Coughlin's</strong> digital videos explore how contemporary anx
 ieties are reflected in the home. Exposing the constructed nature of the fa
 mily environment through collaged images of televisions and computers\, man
 nequins and their mechanical pets\, the home and its inhabitants are reconf
 igured in physical\, social and psychological terms. Incorporating the view
 er as voyeur\, the videos’ uncanny narratives explore themes of alienation 
 and desire in our ‘culture of the copy.’</p><p>Through his performances\, <
 strong>Babak Golkar</strong> has been examining the role of art in terms of
  its public reception as well as the relationship between an object of art 
 and the institution. Drawing on historical figures in art such as Joseph Be
 uys\, Golkar has been exploring and treating art as performative offerings 
 in which he offers the object of art to the viewers as take-a-ways. These o
 fferings could take the form of an object such as a rose or food items\, an
 d gestures such as a quotation\, a smile\, or simple apology written on a b
 anner or poster.</p><p><strong>Peter Mintchev's</strong> work often consist
 s of aesthetic gestures that aim to reconsolidate the way memory and hope b
 ecome integrated within political ideology. His recent work has been focuse
 d on the period of transition experienced in Eastern Europe following the f
 all of the Berlin Wall. Mintchev’s work is ambivalently positioned between 
 personal contemplation and critical commentary.</p><p>In the work of <stron
 g>Daria Tavoularis</strong>\, form and material come from different directi
 ons\, separate elements converging at a concise moment. Her work documents 
 nature and it movement through artificial worlds\, and the shifts that occu
 r in changing architectural spaces.</p><p>The artwork of <strong>Rahel Wach
 s</strong> often consists of elaborate collages\, where contemporary confli
 cts often become reduced to entrapping visual puzzles. Both textual and tac
 tile\, Wachs’ work superimposes historical references and the spectacle of 
 today’s politics. Her latest work is based on the insertion of “Intelligent
  Design Theory” into the biology curriculum of some public schools in the U
 nited States.</p><p><em>For further information please contact: Naomi Sawad

 .</p><p>"The value of sexuality itself is to demean the seriousness of effo
 rts to redeem it".  -  Leo Bersani</p><p><em>Beyond Redemption: Gay Erotic 
 Art</em> will present unabashedly\, unashamedly gay erotic art and beyond. 
  It addresses theoretical and political concerns relevant to gay erotic art
  today.  Well-known artists Stephen Andrews\, AA Bronson\, Brice Canyon\, E
 vergon\, Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Attila Richard Lukacs and Donald Moffett w
 ill present work in a variety of media - drawing\, collage\, photography\, 
 sculpture\, computer-based works as well as animation - with explicit homoe
 rotic content.  The exhibition counters the fact that when confronted by ar
 tworks with sexual content we often seek to transcend their erotic appeal\;
  style and formal concerns are invoked to "redeem" the images’ representati
 on of sex.  Also\, traditional art-historical scholarship has tended to ign
 ore or to cloud the erotic content of myriad works involving sexuality.  Ti
 tian's Venus of Urbino (1538) was created to arouse its patron\, Phillipe I
 I of Spain\; the painting's forthright eroticism is too often eclipsed by A
 rt History.  <em>Beyond Redemption: Gay Erotic Art</em> will attempt to bri
 ng down the veil to reveal the sensuous base involved not only in homoeroti
 c images but also in all artistic representations.  Images have the power t
 o engage us sensuously - they all possess an erotic\; the senses are the do
 ors leading to our engagement with images at the most basic level.  <em>Bey
 ond Redemption: Gay Erotic Art</em> will reaffirm this truism.</p><p><em>Be
 yond Redemption: Gay Erotic Art</em> will address issues of homosexual desi
 re set against an investigation of the formation of community.  The means b
 y which sex is in itself political and how sex\, following Leo Bersani\, ge
 nerates a politics\, are key questions.  Many issues will arise from the ex
 hibition: the fluid boundaries between art and pornography\; the politics i
 nvolved in gay sex as well as desire\; how sex informs community\; the natu
 re of "artistic merit\;" the ubiquity of censorship\; the importance of fre
 edom of expression\; and the rich theoretical scholarship now available dea
 ling with gay identity and culture.</p><p>This exhibition is curated by <st
 rong>Jean-François Renaud</strong>\, candidate to the Masters Degree in Cri
 tical and Curatorial Studies at the University of British Columbia.  The ex
 hibition is supported by the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, the Alvi
 n Balkind Fund for Student Curatorial Initiatives\, and the Department of A
 rt History\, Visual Art\, and Theory at the University of British Columbia.

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4><strong>Opening Reception: April 21\, 8:0
 0 pm. Runs April 22- May 21.</strong></h4><p><em>Sonny Assu: As Defined Wit
 hin the Indian Act</em> is the first solo exhibition of emerging contempora
 ry artist Sonny Assu. The exhibition will feature new work that explores th
 e current tension between innovation and tradition through the forms and se
 nsibility of Pop art. Curated by Matthew Hills\, the exhibition seeks to po
 sition contemporary urban Indigenous artistic production within the context
  of the Northwest Coast and Vancouver’s contemporary art discourse.</p><p>C
 ombining a Pop aesthetic with traditional Northwest Coast style and forms\,
  such as the button blanket and formline\, Assu cultivates a wry critique o
 f current artistic and socio-economic issues pertinent to contemporary cult
 ure. The exhibition will include several new paintings and sculptures that 
 experiment with notions of commodification and the ready-made. The result i
 s an engagement of tradition that refuses to acquiesce to the stereotypes o
 f First Nations art and artists\, while respecting Native culture and addre
 ssing an urban context. Placing an emphasis upon the exploration of identit
 y\, Assu’s practice compels the viewer with incisive wit that undermines no
 tions of a static First Nations identity and temporarily allays the ubiquit
 ous misrepresentation of First Nations cultures and peoples.</p><p>Since th
 e completion of his BFA at the Emily Carr Institute of Art + Design in 2002
 \, Sonny Assu has established his practice through various group exhibition
 s including Thinking Textile at the Richmond Art Gallery\, Futuristic Regal
 ia at Grunt Gallery Vancouver\, and Changing Hands: Art without Reservation
  currently showing at the Museum of Arts & Design in New York before it tou
 rs nationally. A member of the Laich-kwil-tach Nation of the Wei Wai Kai (C
 ape Mudge) band\, Sonny has lived in Vancouver since 1998. For further biog
 raphical information please visit the artist’s website: <a href="http://say
 2k.tv/">http://say2k.tv/</a></p><p>The title\, <em>As Defined Within the In
 dian Act</em>\, makes ironic reference to Indian Status cards and the faile
 d attempt of the Indian Act to define and limit Aboriginal identity. This e
 xhibition is curated by Critical and Curatorial Studies Master of Arts cand
 idate\,<strong>Matthew Hills</strong>\, with support from the Morris and He
 len Belkin Art Gallery\, the Alvin Balkind Fund for Curatorial Initiatives\

 p>The main purpose was to engage the wider community in the issues associat
 ed with\, and the underlying social justice of the World Urban forum 3 held
  in Vancouver in June 2006.</p><p>An important motivation was the example o
 f this Department's founder\, the artist Bertram C. Binning\, who\, as a me
 mber of the Art In Living group\, initiated serious policy actions on publi
 c housing in Vancouver at the end of the Second World War. And the series w
 as designed to underline both the tremendous variety of issues and expertis
 e relating to inclusive and sustainable urban development and the core impo
 rtance of cultural perspectives.</p><p>The creative and performing arts hav
 e always been essential ingredients in humane urban settlement\, much as th
 e very idea of humanitarian civic society was written and imaged before it 
 was ever\, partially\, realised.</p><p>The lectures\, panels and dialogues\
 , and performances thus included Stan Douglas talking on The Urban Conditio
 n - especially in Havana\, Detroit and Vancouver - The Politics of Food\, T
 he Manipulation of Culture in the Selling of Market Housing in Vancouver\, 
 Questions of The Disposition and Use of Public Space\, The Presence and Exc
 lusion of First Nations and Women\, and the Role of the University and City
  in Realising United Nations Millennium goals.</p><p>The series attracted t
 he direct participation of over six and a half thousand people and through 
 various forms of publicity connected well over a million in the city region
  and country. Perhaps most usefully it demonstrated the relevance of arts p
 erspectives on supposedly technical problems and instrumental policy.</p><p
 >In addition\, it provided a new model for UBC's engagement with the commun
 ity in addressing issues of great concern\, not least by involving a group 
 of undergraduate and graduate students with members of the community as Glo
 bal City Navigators\, based at UBC's Learning Exchange at Vancouver's downt
 own eastside.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening Reception: Friday July 7\, 8-10. 
 Show runs July 8 – August 6\, 2006<br />Artist Talk: Saturday\, July 8 at 2
 :00 p.m.</h4><p><em>Material Obsessions</em> pairs the textile-based work o
 f two artists from different generations: veteran Vancouver artist Evelyn R
 oth and Toronto artist Janet Morton.  Though the works exhibited were creat
 ed in disparate geographical locations and at different historical moments\
 , they share similar sensibilities.  Their work takes up popular craft tech
 niques of knitting and crochet to create large scale sculpture.  Each artis
 t is concerned with collecting used materials and re-working them into new 
 forms.  Morton and Roth invite a critical look at issues of excess\; both i
 n terms of the amount of time and repetitive work involved in the process o
 f knitting and crochet\, and patterns of consumption in a society character
 ized by a endless surplus of goods\, and consequently\, of waste.</p><p>Rot
 h's work of the 1970s incorporates salvaged materials including mohair and 
 nylon\, as well as videotape from the CBC\, to construct moveable sculpture
  meant to be activated by the body.  Roth's Environment for Living\, a larg
 e tent-like structure made from 110 recycled sweaters\, engages with notion
 s of women's work in the domestic sphere and how we construct our homes\, w
 hile creating a space for social interaction.  Similarly\, Morton’s work tr
 ansforms familiar objects by reconfiguring scale and materials\, often imbu
 ing them with an element of humour.  This exhibition will show a selection 
 of Morton's work dating from the early 1990s to the present\, including Mem
 orial (Canadian Work Sock)\, a 16 foot long knitted sock that asks viewers 
 to consider the nature of work and the types of labour society values.  Thi
 s will be the first time Morton's work is shown on the West Coast.</p><p><e
 m>Material Obsessions</em> is curated by <strong>Julie Bevan\,</strong> a M
 aster of Arts candidate in Critical and Curatorial Studies at The Universit
 y of British Columbia\, and made possible by the generous support of the Mo
 rris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, the Department of Art History\, Visual 
 Art and Theory at UBC\, and the Alvin Balkind Fund for Curatorial Initiativ
 es.</p><p>Janet Morton will present an Artist Talk at the Belkin Satellite 
 on Saturday\, July 8 at 2:00 p.m. Morton's work is also featured in the con
 current exhibition Thrive By at the Richmond Art Gallery.</p><p><a class="d

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>15 September - 01 October 2006<br />Openi
 ng Reception: 15 September at 8:00 p.m.</h4><p><strong>Abbas Akhavan\, Eryn
 e Donahue\, Rebecca Donald\, Derek Dunlop\, Robert Niven\, Michael Euyung O
 h</strong></p><p><em>Strange Bedfellows</em> points to the diverse and dist
 inct practices of the 2006 Master of Fine Arts graduates. This is an excell
 ent opportunity to view the work of six emerging artists whose practices ex
 plore the mediums of video\, sculpture\, performance and drawing.</p><p><st
 rong>Abbas Akhavan's</strong> four-minute video projection\, August 2006\, 
 conflates terror with pleasure\, the real with the imagined\, and destructi
 on with beauty\, as it draws the viewer through a cycle of heightened anxie
 ty and relief. This duel signification creates a confusion out of which com
 es a comment on the politics of location and perception. Akhavan is a semi-
 finalist for the 2006 RBC Canadian Painting Competition.</p><p><strong>Eryn
 e Donahue</strong> problematizes notions of the portrait\, where the autono
 mous identity of real individuals and bodies is revealed and enlarged. Dona
 hue's use of various photographic and print media has led to a series of ex
 plorations about how humanity is represented\, remembered and understood. H
 er approach is reminiscent of archival or mnemonic schematics that organize
  larger concepts and questions of human life into more manageable parts.</p
 ><p><strong>Rebecca Donald</strong> combines drawing\, painting and sculptu
 re in her visceral works about the home. Her thin-skinned 'towels' are lite
 rally made by the skin that forms on top of thickly poured oil paint as it 
 dries. The skin of the towels sags and wrinkles with age much as a person’s
  would. Donald’s drawings are obsessively rendered\, little abstractions of
  rod-shaped bacteria that make up objects we take for granted in the hygien
 ic home: a faucet\, a sponge or even a large section of wallpaper.</p><p>Un
 der the obscene pressures of advanced capitalism\, <strong>Derek Dunlop</st
 rong> considers how our culture's rage is both intensified and diffused thr
 ough the celebration and destruction of the aggressive male. Dunlop conside
 rs drawing a metaphor for the process by which one can learn and internaliz
 e the subtleties of self-constitution. Drawing can be performed in agreemen
 t with the enforced institutionalization and compartmentalization of everyd
 ay life\, or as a possible strategy of refutation or revolt. Dunlop works t
 hrough the shifting nature of power relations in everyday life\, especially
  in terms of masculinity\, sexuality and desire.</p><p><strong>Robert Niven
 </strong> explores various materials and methods\, finding ways to make vis
 ible conjunctions between memory\, mis-recognition and metamorphosis. Niven
  finds materials in a state of functional limbo and gives them an absurd im
 itative gist\, to confront viewers with recognizable objects in alternative
  manners. These odd encounters are meant to create a dialogue about our per
 ceptions and preconceptions of materials\, objects and forms.</p><p><strong
 >Michael Euyung Oh</strong> began his "ranking projects" in 1999 by reorgan
 izing retail catalogue images of diamond rings\, handguns\, and burial cask
 ets according to his personal taste. For Oh\, the act of making judgments t
 o construct a value system expresses today’s utilitarian materialism and in
 stitutional discourse\, and is also an exercise in subjective absurdity. Oh
 ’s latest ranking project\, 100 Popular First Names is concerned with textu
 al and lingual qualities around naming\, the resonance of personal-cultural
  memory and fantasy\, and the appearance of control and determination.</p><

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>October 20 through December 10\, 2006</h4
 ><p>Throughout his career\, Iain Baxter& has challenged ideas about what ar
 t is and what it does. Using everyday objects and processes\, Baxter& creat
 es works that engage audiences in contemporary social\, political\, and env
 ironmental issues. One of Canada’s most recognized conceptual artists\, Bax
 ter& has been taking photographs since the 1950s. While many aspects of his
  practice have been well documented\, especially his N.E. Thing Co. project
 s with Ingrid Baxter\, his straight photographs remain largely unknown. <em
 >Passing Through</em> includes colour prints\, Polaroids\, and duratrans ta
 ken between 1958 and 1983\, most of which have never been exhibited.</p><p>
 Informed by the notion of driving as a manifestation of consciousness in No
 rth American culture\, most of these photographs were taken as Baxter& trav
 eled across Canada. His photographic oeuvre\, seen in its entirety\, functi
 ons as a fragmented narrative punctuated by digressions and distractions. S
 trangers and friends\, forbidding industrial sites and backyard parties\, e
 xpansive natural landscapes\, and smalltime road attractions reveal the bre
 adth of the Canadian experience during this critical period.</p><p>From the
  early 1960s to the mid-1980s Baxter& lived in Vancouver. This exhibition w
 ill situate his practice in relation to the development of photography on t
 he West Coast\, where he worked concurrently with artists such as Ian Walla
 ce\, Jeff Wall\, and Christos Dikeakos.</p><p>The recipient of many awards\
 , Baxter& received the Order of Canada in 2003\, a Governor General’s Award
  in Visual and Media Arts and the Order of Ontario in 2004\, and the Molson
  Prize in 2005.  He is the 2006 winner of the Gershon Iskowitz Foundation P
 rize.  His work is included in most major collections of Canadian art\, as 
 well as the Museum of Modern Art (New York)\, the Los Angeles County Museum
 \, and the Gemeentemuseum (The Hague).</p><p>Baxter& has recently changed h
 is name to include the ampersand.</p><p><em>This exhibition is organized an
 d circulated by the Art Gallery of Windsor with the support of the Museums 
 Assistance Programme\, Department of Canadian Heritage.</em></p>

 Me! features new works by the University of British Columbia Master of Fine
  Arts students. What unites the works is their exploration of the concepts 
 of perception and translation.</p><p>The title of the exhibition is inspire
 d by the famous windmill scene in Cervantes' Don Quixote\, and the book by 
 Edmund Carpenter of the same name. The prevailing theme of Oh\, What a Blow
  That Phantom Gave Me! is translation (or mistranslation) and to emphasize 
 this theme the curators made phantom "interventions" into the artists' prac
 tices. The curators based the audio\, textual\, and visual "interventions" 
 on the referential title and the works in this exhibition are the artists' 
 responses to the "interventions."  Forming a collective yet fragmented and 
 macabre narrative\, the "interventions" were suggestive of the intangibilit
 y of individual perception and its concomitant effect on interpersonal rela
 tionships.<br />Oh\, What a Blow That Phantom Gave Me! is curated by the fi
 rst-year Critical and Curatorial Studies students\, Jacqueline Mabey\, Kim 
 Nguyen\, and Alison Rajah\, in collaboration with the participating artists
 .</p><p>This exhibition is supported by the Department of Art History\, Vis

 p>INTRODUCTION<br />In a series of five lectures\, Dr. Tsao Hsingyuan explo
 res the continuity of memory\, and traces how selected art objects and pain
 tings of China from the Neolithic period to the 20th century are records of
  the past. In the first talk of the series\, Art for Eternity: Ritual and M
 ortuary Offerings\, Dr. Tsao reveals how massive bronze vessels and small p
 ortable jade pieces testify to a sense of extended time. In Painting the Pa
 ragons: Figurative Painting of the Han and Tang\, tomb art and scrolls from
  the Han to Tang dynasties show how personal and legendary tales were model
 s for emulation. Referencing Antiquity: Values of Literati Art outlines how
  Literati Art theory\, through promoting the use of the past\, pushes paint
 ing to breathtaking compositions and styles. Innovation in Continuity: Crea
 tivity and Tradition discusses how the values of Literati Painting have end
 ured and manifested in art of the 20th century. In the final lecture\, Priv
 ate Passions: Collecting and Collections\, selections from prominent collec
 tions of books\, paintings and calligraphy in Vancouver will be featured in
  a discussion on the impact of art collections on cultural landscapes.</p><

  the George W. Bush administration as wounded soldiers in the war against t
 errorism\, RE: THE_OPERATION explores the sexual and philosophical dynamics
  of war through the lives of the members as they physically engage each oth

 round the world as they articulate the neuroses and obsessions that drive t

 pro-war. A young man wants to die for his country so he can--at last--have

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4><strong>Opening Reception Friday February
  9\, 8pm<br />Artist talk Saturday February 10\, 2pm</strong></h4><p>Explor
 ing the complex relationship between the human and animal worlds\, Eleanor 
 Morgan's practice examines empathy in light of cultural and personal politi
 cs. The artist writes\, we can only understand animals as metaphors for our
  own behavior\, so there is a constant attempt and failure to connect. For 
 Morgan\, animals are shifting\, sticky objects of investigation. Her proces
 s of engagement with her subject is an activity that hinges on the human ne
 ed to personify the natural world\, and her emphasis on the processual aspe
 cts of her animal encounters yields work that entangle subjectivities. Infl
 uenced by the writing of W.G. Sebald\, whose web-like narratives operate so
 mewhere between fiction and document\, Morgan's artistic process is part re
 search\, part memory\, and part desire.</p><p>Her most recent work\, The Pu
 ffin Hunter\, is a documentary film that follows a hunter on his solo trek 
 to lure\, capture\, and kill mature puffins in a dramatic\, remote Icelandi
 c landscape. The harvesting activity forces viewers to question notions of 
 nature\, necessity\, and empathy. Pointing to a triangulated experience bet
 ween the birds\, the hunter\, and the observer\, The Puffin Hunter elicits 
 a potential response of conflicted emotion\, clinical observation\, and a c
 onsideration of the sublime.</p><p>Eleanor Morgan lives and works in London
 \, UK. Since graduating from the University of British Columbia with her MF
 A in 2004\, she has shown her work at the Or Gallery\, Vancouver\; Site Gal
 lery\, Sheffield\; Soap Factory\, Minneapolis\; Lieu Unique\, Nantes\; Cast
 lefield Gallery\, Manchester\; SIM\, Reykjavik\; and Area 10 Project Space\

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Referencing Antiquity: Values of L
 iterati Art.</strong></p><p><strong>Please note lectures are in Mandarin Ch
 inese. Admission is Free.</strong></p><p>Literati painters of the Song\, Yu
 an\, Ming and Qing dynasties frequently invoked the past to contest politic
 al and social issues. Selected paintings by Zhao Mengfu\, Ni Zan\, Dong Qic
 hang and others show how knowledge and timely use of themes centuries old c
 ould evoke searing heartache or steadfast resolve. The criteria of Literati
  Artists and their works changed throughout the centuries with only one end
 uring commonality: literati artists always referenced antiquity. They knew 
 past brush strokes\, themes and styles were infused with historical signifi
 cance and they skillfully used and read style as expressions of self on pol
 itics. Furthermore\, Literati Artists drew heavily from past styles as a st
 rategy to justify innovative daring and bold styles.</p><p><strong>Introduc
 tion<br /></strong>In a series of five lectures\, Dr. Tsao Hsingyuan explor
 es the continuity of memory\, and traces how selected art objects and paint
 ings of China from the Neolithic period to the 20th century are records of 
 the past. In the first talk of the series\, Art for Eternity: Ritual and Mo
 rtuary Offerings\, Dr. Tsao reveals how massive bronze vessels and small po
 rtable jade pieces testify to a sense of extended time. In Painting the Par
 agons: Figurative Painting of the Han and Tang\, tomb art and scrolls from 
 the Han to Tang dynasties show how personal and legendary tales were models
  for emulation. Referencing Antiquity: Values of Literati Art outlines how 
 Literati Art theory\, through promoting the use of the past\, pushes painti
 ng to breathtaking compositions and styles. Innovation in Continuity: Creat
 ivity and Tradition discusses how the values of Literati Painting have endu
 red and manifested in art of the 20th century. In the final lecture\, Priva
 te Passions: Collecting and Collections\, selections from prominent collect
 ions of books\, paintings and calligraphy in Vancouver will be featured in 
 a discussion on the impact of art collections on cultural landscapes.</p><p
 >DR. TSAO HSINGYUAN received her M.A. degrees from the Central Academy of A
 rt in Beijing and the University of California Berkeley\, and her Ph.D from
  Stanford University. She currently teaches Chinese art at UBC in the Depar
 tment of Art History\, Visual art & Theory.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening reception 03 March 2007. Runs 03 
 March - 01 April 2007.</h4><p><strong>Corey Adams\, Roy Arden\, Geoffrey Fa
 rmer\, Angus Ferguson\, Jacob Gleeson\, Mark Lewis\, Anne Ramsden\, Matthew
  Robertson</strong></p><p>The title of the exhibition\, <strong>The Backlot
 </strong>\, makes reference to the false façades typically found on the lot
 s at major Hollywood studios. Consisting of two or three walls and sometime
 s a roof\, the façades on the backlot are essentially shells of what is ima
 gined to exist inside—they provide the viewer with minimum visual informati
 on and little more. Though it does not actually have a true backlot of its 
 own\, Vancouver can be understood as having many of the same qualities of t
 he traditional backlot. Creating illusion through the concealing and reveal
 ing of selected elements of a location is central to the filmmaking process
 \, and in the many films that Vancouver has appeared as a backdrop\, it is 
 rarely represented as itself\, but rather\, is used almost exclusively as a
  stand-in for any other city.</p><p>The artwork in this exhibition consider
 s the ways in which the Vancouver film industry disrupts and interrupts spa
 ce within the city and aims to examine how the film industry’s dependence o
 n the fictional construction of places and locations is embedded in Vancouv
 er’s understanding (or misunderstanding) of itself. Through video\, film\, 
 photography\, and installation\, eight artists who have at some point lived
  in Vancouver explore how the city is marketed and sold as a series of loca
 tions and services\, how it is presented as fictitious or generic\, and how
  this contributes to the absence of a sense of place in what is one of the 
 most filmed cities in the world.</p><p>This project is curated by <strong>S
 ophie Brodovitch</strong>\, a candidate to the Masters Degree in Critical a
 nd Curatorial Studies at The University of British Columbia.</p><p><em>Belk
 in Satellite gratefully acknowledges the support of the Alvin Balkind Fund 
 for Student Curatorial Initiatives\, the Department of Art History\, Visual
  Art\, and Theory\, the Faculty of Arts\, and the Museum of Anthropology at

 ty and Tradition.</strong></p><p><strong>Please note lectures are in Mandar
 in Chinese. Admission is Free.</strong></p><p>At the turn of the 20th centu
 ry\, China began a period of adaptation to tumultuous social and political 
 changes. A series of events punctuating the last century compelled and insp
 ired painters in China to oscillate between innovation and continuity of pa
 st styles. After a century of social turmoil and cultural agony\, tradition
 al Chinese ink painting did not vanish\; recent developments in ink paintin
 g attest to the revitalization of literati art values in the late 20th cent
 ury.</p><p>INTRODUCTION<br />In a series of five lectures\, Dr. Tsao Hsingy
 uan explores the continuity of memory\, and traces how selected art objects
  and paintings of China from the Neolithic period to the 20th century are r
 ecords of the past. In the first talk of the series\, Art for Eternity: Rit
 ual and Mortuary Offerings\, Dr. Tsao reveals how massive bronze vessels an
 d small portable jade pieces testify to a sense of extended time. In Painti
 ng the Paragons: Figurative Painting of the Han and Tang\, tomb art and scr
 olls from the Han to Tang dynasties show how personal and legendary tales w
 ere models for emulation. Referencing Antiquity: Values of Literati Art out
 lines how Literati Art theory\, through promoting the use of the past\, pus
 hes painting to breathtaking compositions and styles. Innovation in Continu
 ity: Creativity and Tradition discusses how the values of Literati Painting
  have endured and manifested in art of the 20th century. In the final lectu
 re\, Private Passions: Collecting and Collections\, selections from promine
 nt collections of books\, paintings and calligraphy in Vancouver will be fe
 atured in a discussion on the impact of art collections on cultural landsca
 pes.</p><p>DR. TSAO HSINGYUAN received her M.A. degrees from the Central Ac
 ademy of Art in Beijing and the University of California Berkeley\, and her
  Ph.D from Stanford University. She currently teaches Chinese art at UBC in

 0pm</strong></p><p>While the accelerating pace of globalization over the la
 st several decades has enabled an unprecedented movement of people and cult
 ural practice across Canada\, the United States\, and the countries of Lati
 n America\, there has been little intellectual exchange about the visual an
 d cultural realms across this same geography. A constellation of both well-
 established and emerging scholars is scattered throughout regions such as P
 eru\, Brazil\, Argentina\, Paraguay\, Guatemala\, Mexico\, Canada\, Cuba an
 d the rest of the Caribbean whose work interrogates the complexities of mod
 ern cultural production in the Americas.  The points that make up this cons
 tellation\, however\, remain largely isolated from one another. This situat
 ion calls for a more powerful form of exchange: a sustained discussion of i
 deas to question assumptions and produce knowledge across the Americas.</p>
 <p>It is crucial\, in our view\, to reassert the cultural outline of the Am
 ericas as a subject of inquiry and a space of intellectual dialogue and deb
 ate.<br />The purpose of this two-day conference\, international and interd
 isciplinary in scope\, is to interrogate and historicize interactions and t
 o examine gaps across the cultural terrain of the Americas from the period 
 that stretches from post-Second World War "reconstruction" to the present\,
  and to explore how globalization has impacted (and in turn is impacted by)
  the visual arts.</p><p>In the interest of predicting audience numbers\, we
  ask that you please indicate your desire to attend the conference by respo

 ion continues to April 1.</p><p>Corey Adams\, Roy Arden\, Geoffrey Farmer\,
  Angus Ferguson\, Jacob Gleeson\,<br />Mark Lewis\, Anne Ramsden\, Matthew 
 Robertson</p><p>The title of the exhibition\, The Backlot\, makes reference
  to the false façades typically found on the lots at major Hollywood studio
 s. Consisting of two or three walls and sometimes a roof\, the façades on t
 he backlot are essentially shells of what is imagined to exist inside—they 
 provide the viewer with minimum visual information and little more. Though 
 it does not actually have a true backlot of its own\, Vancouver can be unde
 rstood as having many of the same qualities of the traditional backlot. Cre
 ating illusion through the concealing and revealing of selected elements of
  a location is central to the filmmaking process\, and in the many films th
 at Vancouver has appeared as a backdrop\, it is rarely represented as itsel
 f\, but rather\, is used almost exclusively as a stand-in for any other cit
 y.</p><p>The artwork in this exhibition considers the ways in which the Van
 couver film industry disrupts and interrupts space within the city and aims
  to examine how the film industry's dependence on the fictional constructio
 n of places and locations is embedded in Vancouver's understanding (or misu
 nderstanding) of itself. Through video\, film\, photography\, and installat
 ion\, eight artists who have at some point lived in Vancouver explore how t
 he city is marketed and sold as a series of locations and services\, how it
  is presented as fictitious or generic\, and how this contributes to the ab
 sence of a sense of place in what is one of the most filmed cities in the w
 orld.</p><p>This project is curated by Sophie Brodovitch\, a candidate to t
 he Masters Degree in Critical and Curatorial Studies at The University of B
 ritish Columbia.<br />We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Alvin Ba
 lkind Fund for Student Curatorial Initiatives\, the Department of Art Histo

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>The opening reception for Wheel: Overlays 
 follows at 7:00 p.m. at the Museum of Anthropology.</p><p>Hock E Aye VI Edg
 ar Heap of Birds is a leading Native-American artist who has completed nume
 rous site-specific installations and public art projects across North Ameri
 ca. This talk is being presented in conjunction with his installation Wheel
 : Overlays at the Museum of Anthropology\, and the outdoor art project Nati
 ve Hosts that the artist has generously donated to the University Art Colle
 ction through the auspices of the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery. Heap
  of Birds’ talk will address these works and other similar projects that he
  has created during the past twenty years.</p><p>Wheel: Overlays has been c
 onceived for MOA’s Great Hall and consists of ten semi-transparent “tree fo
 rms” set in a 30-foot circular arrangement. Each form is over ten feet high
  and its vertical structure references the forked-tree supports used in Pla
 ins Indians’ solstice lodges. Using text\, dates\, maps\, diagrams\, and sy
 mbolic motifs\, Heap of Birds encodes Native American political history and
  experience and places it in relationship to Northwest Coast First Nations 
 totem poles at the Museum. Both reference\, codify\, and record collective 
 histories that are shared between Native peoples in Canada and the U.S.</p>
 <p>Native Hosts consists of 12 aluminum signs which make reference to the r
 elationship between First Nations and British Columbia. They will be locate
 d in 12 different locations across the UBC campus. These signs were previou
 sly exhibited on the grounds of the Vancouver Art Gallery in 1991 as part o
 f the exhibition Lost Illusions. Language has consistently been an importan
 t aspect of Heap of Birds’ work\, and these signs use text in an imaginativ
 e and disconcerting way to stimulate thoughts about issues of history\, pub
 lic space\, land claims\, and even generosity and sharing.</p><p><strong>Ed
 gar Heap of Birds is Associate Professor at the University of Oklahoma. He 
 has been exhibiting since 1979 in the U.S.A.\, Canada\, South Africa\, Aust
 ralia\, and Europe.</strong></p><p><strong>This event is sponsored by the M

 ded to serve as a vehicle for rethinking issues of production\, authenticit
 y\, creativity\, appropriation\, reiteration\, interpreting\, re-interpreti
 ng\, emulating\, and pedagogy in Chinese art\, particularly in its later im
 perial period. A long-held truism in Chinese painting history is that a gre
 at artist is also a great copyist. The logic of this claim pits Chinese art
  against the traditions of post-Renaissance European art\, which constructe
 d artists as unique and individual heroes who consciously avoided copying t
 o create something that has never been made before\, a pursuit of so-called
  “originality.” Thus it has been considered that the true artist is expecte
 d to create\; the talentless artist can merely copy. To copy was to plagiar
 ize\, to reproduce a flawed reproduction that merely captured the surface o
 f things. Authenticity and originality demanded creation.</p><p>Like all tr
 uisms\, this one exaggerates the polarity between East and West\, and yet t
 here is a difference between them that needs to be explored and reinterpret
 ed. In Europe\, the concept of copying provided no ground for legitimacy. I
 n China\, on the other hand\, mo ? (trace\, close copy) and fang ? (copy\, 
 or emulating\, appropriation) were understood as essential methods for legi
 timate forms of cultural production. Is it possible that mofang is not what
  the English word copy implies at all\, but something better understood as 
 visual referencing\, coding\, or appropriating? In this economy of signs\, 
 then\, what constitutes authenticity? Our goal is to rethink\, and even red
 efine\, a theoretical position for Chinese painting in the broader context 
 of painting theory.</p><p>This public and free event is organized by Dr. Hs
 ingyuan Tsao (Dept. of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory\, UBC) and Dr. T

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Private Passions: Collecting and C
 ollections.</strong></p><p><strong>Please note lectures are in Mandarin Chi
 nese. Admission is Free.</strong></p><p>In Vancouver there are numerous Chi
 nese art collectors and several eminent collections hold priceless objects 
 of great cultural value. In the past\, these collectors and their collectio
 ns shifted the West Coast cultural landscape\, and in the future\, these co
 llections will continue to impact the cultural field. Collections of books\
 , paintings\, and calligraphy in Vancouver can be vital forces to propel ch
 ange in public and private cultural spheres. As artists\, art enthusiasts a
 nd art collectors\, an active and flourishing cultural environment in the c
 ity we live in is essential to fulfilling our private passions.</p><p>INTRO
 DUCTION<br />In a series of five lectures\, Dr. Tsao Hsingyuan explores the
  continuity of memory\, and traces how selected art objects and paintings o
 f China from the Neolithic period to the 20th century are records of the pa
 st. In the first talk of the series\, Art for Eternity: Ritual and Mortuary
  Offerings\, Dr. Tsao reveals how massive bronze vessels and small portable
  jade pieces testify to a sense of extended time. In Painting the Paragons:
  Figurative Painting of the Han and Tang\, tomb art and scrolls from the Ha
 n to Tang dynasties show how personal and legendary tales were models for e
 mulation. Referencing Antiquity: Values of Literati Art outlines how Litera
 ti Art theory\, through promoting the use of the past\, pushes painting to 
 breathtaking compositions and styles. Innovation in Continuity: Creativity 
 and Tradition discusses how the values of Literati Painting have endured an
 d manifested in art of the 20th century. In the final lecture\, Private Pas
 sions: Collecting and Collections\, selections from prominent collections o
 f books\, paintings and calligraphy in Vancouver will be featured in a disc
 ussion on the impact of art collections on cultural landscapes.</p><p>DR. T
 SAO HSINGYUAN received her M.A. degrees from the Central Academy of Art in 
 Beijing and the University of California Berkeley\, and her Ph.D from Stanf
 ord University. She currently teaches Chinese art at UBC in the Department 
 of Art History\, Visual art & Theory.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4><strong>Felix Gonzalez-Torres\, Terence K
 oh\, Micah Lexier\, Kelly Mark\, Andy Warhol.</strong></h4><p><strong>Openi
 ng reception</strong>: Friday April 13\, 8 to 10 pm.</p><p><strong>Hours</s
 trong>: Wednesday to Sunday\, 12 to 5 pm.</p><p>The phrase 'how much longer
 ' refers to a state in between. It implies an unmeasured distance before re
 aching the end\, a sentiment akin to endurance.  HOW MUCH LONGER moves from
  a demarcation of the time ‘in between’ to consider the body as a site of e
 ndurance. The works presented here are viewed as pieces about duration vis-
 à-vis corporeal time. In considering subjects such as love and loss\, week-
 long viral infections\, sex acts\, and the interconnectedness of art and la
 bour\, these works suggest endurance is enmeshed in the materiality of time
 .</p><p>These artists incorporate an awareness of endurance\, time\, labour
  and even boredom as a factor in the creation of art. Whether through drawi
 ng\, film\, sculpture or installation work\, the pieces in HOW MUCH LONGER 
 refer to the anxiety embroiled in the creation process as manifest through 
 corporeal time. Time spent thinking\, living\, creating\, and so on. These 
 five artists have taken seemingly ordinary experiences of passing time\, li
 ving life\, and made them extraordinary. Though produced with conceptually 
 rigorous and minimalist strategies\, these works were chosen because they r
 epresent intimate moments in these artists’ lives which may include autobio
 graphical or narrative qualities\, often presented in the form of giving th
 emselves over to their audience in a metaphorical or literal sense.</p><p>T
 his project is curated by <strong>J.J. Kegan McFadden</strong>\, a candidat
 e to the Masters Degree in Critical and Curatorial Studies at The Universit
 y of British Columbia.</p><p>We gratefully acknowledge the support of the A

 </strong>.</p><p>Doors salvaged from discarded refrigerators serve as the s
 urface for Simon McNally’s highly autobiographical and beautifully rendered
  images.  This new series of six works deals with systems of communication\
 , memory\, rituals and myths of the family—and the range of emotion that su
 rrounds these.</p><p>McNally reckons with his own past by re-presenting it 
 in the present moment\, translating images from a sequence of family photos
 .  Underlying this project is McNally’s interest in exploring memory in rel
 ation to ‘objective records’ such as photographs and press clippings.  This
  work\, which engages with emotion\, aesthetics\, and practice of storytell
 ing\, can also be considered McNally’s response to trends in the contempora
 ry art world.</p><p>McNally’s technique involves multiple turns at applying
  layers of dark grey oil paint to the metal surface of the fridge door\, th
 en methodically scratching and gouging it away.  The resulting works are in
 tended to suggest multiple narratives—both real and imagined.</p><p><em>Sim
 on McNally grew up in Southern Ontario\, completed his BFA at the Nova Scot
 ia College of Art and Design (2003)\, and his MA at the University of Briti
 sh Columbia (2006).  He currently lives and works in Vancouver.</em></p><p>

 he great Victorian writer and visionary John Ruskin\, whose mission was not
  necessarily to teach people to draw\, but how to see.</p>

 , </strong>and <strong>Paul Wong.</strong></p><p>In a country that has tout
 ed its multicultural policies\, the resurgence of racist attitudes after 9/
 11 prompts critical assessment of race issues today. In an effort to review
  race politics in the context of Canada's colonial and immigrant policies\,
  the exhibition Limits of Tolerance examines a period in recent history whe
 n cultural diversity became Canada's state policy with the 1988 Multicultur
 alism Act.</p><p>In the late 1980s\, an increasing number of artists explor
 ed and questioned their own identity based on race\, gender and sexuality\,
  as lobby efforts and activism of people of colour and aboriginal ancestry 
 gained momentum. With the 1988 Multiculturalism Act demanding government ag
 encies to reform or invent equity policies\, the arts and culture sector in
  particular underwent a turbulent period in which comfort zones of liberal 
 attitudes were challenged. The present exhibition Limits of Tolerance\, re-
 presents a selection of artworks produced in Vancouver in the late 1980s an
 d early 1990s when artists\, writers and academics engaged in intense debat
 es about identifications based on race\, gender\, and sexuality. This selec
 tion emphasizes the various and often contrasting ways in which artists dea
 l with issues of identity and critique social structures which inform their
  identity.</p><p>The artists featured in the exhibition use non-traditional
  visual media such as video\, performance\, and photo-installation to push 
 the limits of art production at a time when the concept of a singular cultu
 re was under scrutiny. The artistic output from this period in the form of 
 artworks\, group exhibitions\, and conferences challenged the very idea of 
 artistic quality as prescribed by an artworld resistant to self reflection.
  In this context\, some artists actively identified their subjective positi
 oning and sought to speak from within communities defined by race\, gender\
 , or sexuality\, while other artists deliberately avoided such self-identif
 ication or resisted being categorized under a homogenous group. The differi
 ng strategies deployed in dealing with the question of identity have insula
 ted discussions of certain artists' works from others. This exhibition brin
 gs together these works in renewed discussions of identity and reflects on 
 the common place and time shared by each artist despite his/her distinct ex
 perience of race\, gender and sexuality.</p><p>Presented alongside the artw
 orks are archival materials from the cultural equity caucus for the former 
  ssociation of National Non-Profit Artists' Centres (ANNPAC)\, Minquon Panc
 hayat (1992-1993)\, the film festival In Visible Colours (1989)\, and the e
 xhibitions Yellow Peril: Reconsidered (1990)\, Self Not Whole (1991)\, Racy
  Sexy (1993). The records of these cultural activities help reframe the pre
 sented art works in broader terms\, which include social and political hist
 ory of Canada\, and the changing questions of community in an increasingly 
 globalized world. Revisiting this recent past sharpens a critical lens thro
 ugh which one can see how race politics is played out in art and the socioc
 ultural and political arenas today.</p><p>A symposium will be held on Satur
 day\, May 26\, 14:00 – 17:00 at the UBC Robson Square theatre\, featuring L
 aiwan\, Candice Hopkins\, and Keith Langergräber as speakers. The symposium
  will explore questions around issues of difference and marginality and ana
 lyze the present state of the arts and culture field in Canada.</p><p><em>C

 Some Changes surveys the breadth of the New York based artists’ oeuvre over
  the last seventeen years.  Ligon is at the forefront of a generation of ar
 tists who came to prominence in the late 1980s on the strength of conceptua
 lly based paintings and photo-text work that investigates the social\, ling
 uistic and political construction of race\, gender and sexuality. Incorpora
 ting sources as diverse as James Baldwin’s texts\, photographic scrapbooks\
 , and Richard Pryor’s stand-up comic routines\, Ligon’s art is a sustained 
 meditation on issues of quotation\, the presence of the past in the present
 \, and the representation of the self in relationship to culture and histor
 y.<br />Over the past two decades Ligon’s practice has incorporated paintin
 g\, installation\, printmaking\, sculpture\, video\, and recently\, web-bas
 ed projects.  His work has appeared in Documenta XI\, Kassel (2002)\, the X
 XIV Bienal de Sao Paulo (1998) and the Venice Biennale (1997).  His extensi
 ve exhibition history also includes solo shows at the Kunstverein Munich (2
 001)\, the Walker Art Center\, Minneapolis (2000)\, and the San Francisco M
 useum of Modern Art (1996).<br />Glenn Ligon: Some Changes is organized and
  circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery at Harbourfront Cen
 tre\, Toronto\, and co-curated by Wayne Baerwaldt and Thelma Golden.  The e
 xhibition\, which has toured to galleries around the U.S.A.\, has been met 
 with critical success and Ligon’s 2005 work Warm Broad Glow\, was featured 
 on the cover of Artforum’s May 2006 issue.</p><p>With the generous support

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>In conjunction with Monet to Dali: Modern 
 Masters from the Cleveland Museum of Art join Dorothy Barenscott for a lect
 ure on how late 19th century artists gave visual shape and dimension to the
  myths and spectacles of urban modernity\, while simultaneously addressing 
 the promise of newness and transformation that the modern age promised.</p>
 <p>Looking at the works of the Impressionists and other late 19th century a
 vant-garde European artists\, Dorothy argues that their work is more consum
 able and perhaps “readable” today than in the moment of initial conception\
 , when emerging groups of radical artists sought to capture and tell storie
 s about the new contexts of the modernizing fin de siecle world around them
 . Why is this? What are the themes that continue to resonate in the present
  moment? These will be the questions explored in a talk which raises a numb
 er of productive tensions revealed in late 19th century European painting.<
 /p><p>Dorothy Barenscott is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Art H
 istory\, Visual Art and Theory at the University of British Columbia and ha
 s recently been appointed as a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Departme
 nt of Art at the University of Lethbridge. Dorothy has an interest in the e
 mergence of urban modernity in the context of European visual art and cultu
 re\, and her publication record reflects these interests with examinations 
 of painted panoramas\, early cinema\, modern architecture\, and conceptual 
 photography. She has presented her work internationally\, and lectured on v
 isual art and theory at UBC and Simon Fraser University. Dorothy holds a do
 ctoral fellowship with the Social Sciences and Humanities Council of Canada
  and is a past recipient of the Simons Foundation Doctoral Scholarship.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>June 29 – August 4\, 2007\,<br /><strong>o
 pen</strong>: Thursday June 28\, 8pm</p><p>With works by Robert Arndt\, Ray
 mond Boisjoly\, Matthew Booth\, Heidi Johansen\, Kyla Mallett\, and Jeremy 
 Todd\, curated by Dan Starling.</p><p>“Between You and the Thing Itself” pr
 esents the work of six artists from Vancouver working with photography. Thi
 s exhibition was organized in a spontaneous manner and was largely influenc
 ed by the selected artists’ works as well as my own interest in photography
 . In this way the show came together organically without a heavy-handed cur
 atorial premise. The artists in the exhibition do not have any easy categor
 ization and work within a variety of contexts.</p><p>Perhaps a common threa
 d that runs throughout this selection is an interest in how photography act
 s as the mediator between you (the viewer) and the thing (the object).  Whi
 le all of the artists investigate the nature of photography’s re-framing an
 d its ability to divulge something about the idea of originality and the su
 bject it is depicting\, each explores this distancing mechanism inherent in
  the medium through different means. For example\, Kyla Mallet’s Kids on th
 e Brink\, is an image of a scanned book cover that shows how the serious ma
 tter of teen suicide is packaged by the medical industry for an anxious pub
 lic. Formal interventions can also produce comic effects\, as in Matthew Bo
 oth’s printed stills depicting images of stunned viewers witnessing David B
 laine’s street magic.</p><p>With this exhibition\, I selected artists who a
 re not typically grouped together in order to move away from the idea of cr
 eating a cohesive group of artists working in a parallel fashion.  Rather\,
  I hope that this functions to provide a cross-section of the methods avail
 able to photography as a re-framing device. I am interested in the mediatio
 n that photography creates because it opens up an imaginative space of spec
 ulation—a contemplative space of re-configuring or re-imaging cultural form
 ations.</p><ul><li><strong>Robert Arndt</strong> examines the means of acce
 ssing culture and history through the mediated forms of books\, magazines a
 nd the internet.  His recent work has involved elements of performance\, ph
 otography and film\, and is informed by historical west coast conceptualism
  and the visual language and authority of cinema. He has exhibited his work
  in solo and group exhibitions in Canada\, the U.S.\, and abroad.</li><li><
 strong>Raymond Boisjoly</strong> is an MFA candidate at the University of B
 ritish Columbia. His research is concerned with the transformative dynamics
  of cross-cultural contact as a form of artistic production. An upcoming wo
 rk negotiates the visual intersection of two cultures\, First Nations & Hea
 vy Metal.</li><li><strong>Matthew Booth</strong> graduated from Emily Carr 
 Institute in 2006. He is a co-editor of Pyramid Power magazine.</li><li><st
 rong>Heidi Johansen</strong> has exhibited her work at Blanket Gallery (Van
 couver) and at Irvine Contemporary\, Irvine\, CA. She graduated from Emily 
 Carr in 2005 and currently lives in Norway.</li><li><strong>Kyla Mallett</s
 trong> is an artist based in Vancouver. Since completing an MFA at the Univ
 ersity of British Columbia in 2004\, her work has been included in exhibiti
 ons at the Vancouver Art Gallery\; ThreeWalls\, Chicago\; the Vancouver Pub
 lic Library\, and Artspeak.</li><li><strong>Jeremy Todd</strong> is an inte
 rdisciplinary artist\, writer\, musician and educator currently working as 
 an interim Director/Curator for the Richmond Art Gallery. In March of this 
 year he completed the feature length digital film "Dear Guy"\, a reflection
  on current understandings and acculturations of Guy Debord's life and work
 s\, and is now developing "Easter Everywhere"\, a film project combining dy
 stopic science fiction\, pop documentary and epistolary narrative structure

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>"Chinese Restaurants and the Head Tax Issu
 e in Canadian Art"</p><p>The exhibition “REDRESS EXPRESS: Chinese Restauran
 ts and the Head Tax Issue in Canadian Art” features recent photography\, vi
 deo and installations by five Chinese-Canadian artists: Gu Xiong (Vancouver
 )\, Shelly Low (Montreal)\, Ho Tam (Victoria\, BC)\, Karen Tam (Montreal)\,
  and Kira Wu (Vancouver). It is held in conjunction with the two-day sympos
 ium “REDRESS EXPRESS: Current Directions in Asian Canadian Art and Culture”
  which brings together over twenty scholars\, community activists\, cultura
 l organizers\, and artists from many disciplines to consider current and fu
 ture directions in Asian Canadian art and culture. The REDRESSEXPRESS proje
 ct is curated by Alice Ming Wai Jim and accompanied by a colour catalogue w
 ith additional graphic illustrations by Joanne Hui (Montreal).</p><p>As a w
 hole\, the REDRESS EXPRESS project is an attempt to examine the current pol
 itics of representation\, redress and recognition in Canada as they relate 
 to art\, activism\, identity and geography. The call for redress has long b
 een the bookends for Asian Canadian critiques of Canada’s racist past. The 
 recent victory of the redress campaign for surviving Chinese head tax payer
 s and their spouses and its inevitable effects on the current politics of r
 eparation and representation in this country\, however\, presents another c
 hallenge: to ensure an ongoing\, rigorous treatment these issues demand in 
 political\, cultural and educational sectors. With the host of 2007 anniver
 saries of historical dates significant to Canadians and Asian Canadian comm
 unities in particular celebrated this year\, this provision of critical tex
 ts in contemporary discourse and practice and the broadening of understandi
 ng to address cross-cultural perspectives and realities remains imperative.
 </p><p>Providing the starting point of this project\, the exhibition brings
  together recent artworks that explore the Chinese restaurant as an iconic 
 institution and bring forward critical discourses in relation to the head t
 ax redress and identity politics in general. The Chinese restaurant install
 ation by Karen Tam exposes the cultural underpinnings and ethnic stereotype
 s that define family-owned Chinese restaurants in Canada as well as the evo
 lution of Chinese Canadian cuisine. Kira Wu’s photographic series of the ex
 teriors of Chinese-Canadian restaurants in the neighbourhood initiate a rev
 iew of signage and cultural arbitrage. Shelly Low’s self-portraits and Rice
 -Krispies squares sculpture intimates a self-conscious projection and repre
 sentation of the consumable ethnic or exotic 'other'. The Yellow Pages (199
 4) by Ho Tam provides a video primer from A to Z of past and present Asian 
 experience within North America. Gu Xiong’s series of hanging banner portra
 its of present-day and historical figures important to the development of C
 hinese Canadian communities gives face to the historical moments of redress

 lips.  This study considers three temporary\, site-specific installations t
 hat for brief moments haunted such sites in Berlin during the first volatil
 e years after 1990.</p><p>Behind the mask of new architecture rapidly trans
 forming Berlin’s visage in the years following Germany’s reunification in 1
 990 lie profound anxieties over the nature and implications of the city’s r
 econstruction in the face of an irresolvable past and an unclear future. A 
 disenchanted and destabilized eastern population\, resurfacing questions ov
 er the definition of “Germanness” and the German nation\, and the sudden co
 llision of two incongruent narratives of the National Socialist and communi
 st pasts frustrate the city’s desire to present a unified identity in the f
 irst years after the fall of the Berlin Wall. To access this terrain\, my d
 issertation departs from the focus of much of the published literature on t
 he post-unification city and looks not to Berlin’s urban regeneration itsel
 f but rather to the more unstable spaces between architecture: those more m
 arginal or unresolved sites and surfaces which\, in states of flux\, paraly
 sis\, or neglect\, are more vulnerable to (and revealing of) the possibilit
 ies of appropriation and disturbance.</p><p>This study considers three temp
 orary\, site-specific installations that for brief moments haunted such sit
 es in Berlin during the first volatile years after 1990:</p><p>Shimon Attie
 ’s 1991-1992 photographic projections entitled The Writing on the Wall\, th
 e 1993 simulation in canvas of Berlin’s demolished Stadtschloss\, and Chris
 to and Jeanne-Claude’s wrapping of the Reichstag in 1995. Visible only flee
 tingly amidst the solidity of the city’s built landscape\, it is the very i
 mpermanence of such representations\, I contend\, that afford them their cr
 itical power. Drawing upon theories of memory\, trauma\, and desire\, I arg
 ue that these installations can be brought to bear directly on the contenti
 ous politics of memory and identity that permeate Berlin’s social and spati
 al practice in the years following 1990\, exposing anxious edges of “German
 ness\,” desires to recuperate (and repress) certain historical narratives\,
  and ambivalent sites of fixation in a city negotiating its new role as onc
 e again capital of a unified German nation-state. In this way\, they provid
 e narrow windows through which we might glimpse the unquiet space that oper
 ates behind a redefining city’s scripted surface\, and the pasts that lie i
 n wait there. The task of this dissertation is to explore that space.</p>

 /h4><p><strong>Gareth Moore\,  Kerri Reid\,  Kara Uzelman</strong></p><p>Dr
 awing from archeology\, anthropology\, and traditional craft\, the artists 
 in <em>Working Back</em>engage in sculptural interventions with once discar
 ded things. Gareth Moore\, Kerri Reid\, and Kara Uzelman manipulate found o
 bjects\, shifting their forms and values\, blending stories and histories o
 n re-created or re-contextualized surfaces. Their artworks are linked to di
 fferent places and times\, and yet they are brought into the gallery with a
 n awareness of their shifting roles articulated within their very structure
 s.</p><p>After studying archeological technique and theory for six months\,
  Kara Uzelman performed an excavation of her Strathcona backyard. She made 
 sculptures with some of her findings\, left others as they were\, and then 
 hosted a garage sale around the dig in order to find new homes for the lost
  commodities\, some of which had been buried for over 50 years. Since then 
 she has been using the unearthed objects as source material. In Working Bac
 k she will present a re-formed installation based around this project.</p><
 p>Kerri Reid fixes damaged utilitarian objects that she has discovered aban
 doned in her neighbourhood. However\, before doing so\, Reid studies their 
 materials and makes multiples of the objects in their broken forms.  By fin
 ely crafting useless\, broken things\, and then placing them in a pristine 
 gallery\, Reid draws attention to the abstract nature of contemporary value
  systems.</p><p>Gareth Moore also reconfigures materials that he encounters
  in his daily life. For Working Back he will show photographic documentatio
 n of ephemeral sculptural forms made with things found in proximity to one 
 another in the waste sites that surround the urban environment. In the gall
 ery the pictures will become part of sculptural forms that draw attention t
 o the images’ inherently archival roles\, and the lost forms they represent
 .</p><p>This briocolage of fossilized commodities could be closely linked t
 o the work of children\, whose imaginative alchemy can turn closets into ca
 ves\, and tinfoil into silver. However\, the artists in Working Back draw a
 ttention to the bewildering interactions between people and objects through
  sophisticated dialectical images\; fragmented historical ruins.</p><p>This
  exhibition is curated by <strong>Jesse Birch</strong>\, a candidate to the
  Masters Degree in Critical and Curatorial Studies at The University of Bri
 tish Columbia.</p><p><em>We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Alvin
  Balkind Fund for Student Curatorial Initiatives\, the Department of Art Hi

 h hegemony from the perspective of the Other\,<strong>Nicole Brabant's</str
 ong> suite of videos takes up golf as a vehicle to enter into a multi-axial
  critique of contemporary society.  In her work Adaptation (Cold Read For G
 olf Cinema)\, Brabant looks at dialogue that could function as double-enten
 dre in an attempt to discuss broader issues of racism\, classism\, sexism\,
  as well as neo-colonial aspects of globalization.</p><p><strong>Paul Kajan
 der</strong> often makes use of humour and provisional materials as means o
 f critique.  These devices are employed in works that venture a subjective 
 response to the alienating conditions of contemporary experience.  His rese
 arch-oriented practice makes use of literature\, philosophy\, popular cultu
 re and autobiography as starting points in the development of projects that
  aim to challenge the means-ends rationalism so pervasive under dominant id
 eologies.</p><p><strong>Marilou Lemmens</strong> and Richard Ibghy will pre
 sent their work There was a bandstand\, a two-channel video installation co
 nsisting of text\, images\, monochromes\, and voice. Using linguistic and v
 isual forms in moving-picture installations\, Lemmens and Ibghy explore the
  intricate forces that shape personal and collective aspects of autobiograp
 hical narrative as an expression of embodied experience.</p><p><strong>Eliz
 abeth Milton's</strong> performative works integrate video and photography 
 into experiential processes of character play that aim to complicate the ac
 t of self-representation. Drawing from acting methods and psychoanalytic th
 eory\, her work explores how strategies of self-transformation may be used 
 to challenge and articulate the distorted sense of reality that consumes ou
 r culture of simulation.</p><p>Stepping outside of a practice rooted primar
 ily in photography and video\, <strong>Colin Miner's</strong> new sculpture
  and paint based works allude to themes of stillness and terror as connecte
 d to the vampire.  The works build upon his interest in the gothic and the 
 film noir genre\, while playing with ideas of anxiety in a search for meani
 ng and context in our present time.</p><p>As an offshoot of her project\, c
 olourschool\, <strong>Kristina Lee Podesva</strong> considers the colour br
 own in two works for the exhibition Green.  Brown\, as a vital hue in the c
 olourschool palette (which also includes black\, white\, red\, and yellow)\
 , proposes questions regarding identity and authorship in these works.  Sit
 ed in her studio at UBC\, colourschool has operated since November 2006 as 
 a free school devoted to a speculative study of five colours and has attemp
 ted to develop a colour consciousness through presentations\, screenings\, 
 reading groups\, listening labs\, and performances\, among other activities
 .</p><p><strong>Sarah Turner</strong> maps the desire-relations at work wit
 hin the materiality of everyday life\, interpersonal relations and art itse
 lf. Unhinging meaning from a fixed origin–via sculptural processes\, instal
 lation and intervention–she questions authority\, authorship and artistic s
 ubjectivity. In so doing\, Turner locates agency at the borders between kno
 wledge and desire.</p><p> </p>

 inning on the artists and architects of emerging modernism</strong></p><p>F
 rom the early 1930’s through the mid-1970’s B.C. Binning was in the vanguar
 d of West Coast modern art and architecture\, exerting a seminal influence 
 on what was still a small community. His wit\, experience\, and energetic c
 ommitment to a new approach to art galvanized the potential in a young city
  that was discovering the world. In 1949 he joined the faculty of the new S
 chool of Architecture at UBC and became head of the university’s fledgling 
 Fine Arts Department in 1955 where he taught and painted until his death in
  1975.</p><p>“<em>Man is us\, each individual one of us. How much does it m
 ean to us that we shall remain free and responsible? Who shall interpret us
  to ourselves? There are many directions in which we might seek\, if not fo

 </p><p>Dorothy Somerset became the first permanent staff member of UBC's ne
 wly established Dept. of Extension in 1937 which offered UBC’s first traini
 ng in drama. Within two years she established an impressive list of theatre
  services which included a play-lending library\, short drama courses\, a c
 orrespondence course\, an evening class in playwriting\, a radio series cal
 led the University Drama School and went on to found UBC’s Summer School of
  Drama. Somerset fostered the early talent of legions of Canada’s internati
 onally renowned theatre elite. Of her many accomplishments\, one of her gre
 atest was making theatre an accepted academic discipline at UBC in 1958. Sh

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Recent Acquisitions exhibition\, featuring
  the work of artist Jane Billaux.  Runs until Oct 27/07.</p><p>This exhibit
  was co-curated and researched by Jacquline Mabey\, Master of Arts Candidat
 e\, Critical and Curatorial Studies.</p><p>Opening at the West Vancouver Mu
 seum on September 15\, The Black Slip: The Painting of Jane Billaux is a re
 cent acquisitions exhibition\, featuring the work of artist Jane Billaux. T
 hough born and raised in London\, England\, Billaux has strong ties to West
  Vancouver. She immigrated to Canada from England in 1934 with her husband\
 , Hugh Clifford\, and their young daughter.</p><p>Over the span of forty ye
 ars\, Billaux painted pictures evocative of both the times in which she liv
 ed and the artist’s solitary practice. Almost immediately\, Billaux began e
 xhibiting widely and prolifically in both Canada and the United States. Her
  work was consistently well received. Indeed\, she won the Beatrice Stone M
 edal at the Vancouver Art Gallery’s Annual B.C. Artists’ Exhibition twice\,
  in 1939 and 1942.</p><p>The title of the exhibition alludes to an early se
 lf-portrait Women in the Mirror where the artist portrays herself in a blac
 k slip. Playfully posed before a full-length mirror\, Billaux appears self-
 assured\, every bit the young bohemian moving within London’s avant-garde c
 ircles. The painting palpitates with the artist’s quiet fearlessness\, a co
 mbination of courage and conviction that would take her halfway across the 
 world to follow her passion for painting.</p><p>Billaux painted slowly\, ca
 refully and\, thus\, left a small body of work. However\, in this instance\
 , quantity should not be confused with quality\; what we are left with is r
 emarkable in its clarity.</p><p>For more information\, please contact the M

  essayist\, former Director of the Canada Council for the Arts\, and former
  National Librarian of Canada\, will give an inspiring talk on his adventur
 es and his writing - a lot about his life\, but a lot about his literary wo

 bout what it means to be human.</p><p>“I want to tell the story of how writ

 . In the end\, I am still trying to answer the same questions I asked in th

 re are we going? ”</p><p>Roch Carrier will give his talk at UBC on Wednesda
 y September 19\, 2007.  Program details are to be confirmed.  The talk will
  likely be in the late afternoon or early evening. This would be a super op
 portunity for students who might be studying any of Carrier's works (whethe
 r it is one of his short stories\, novels\, plays\, or poems).  Many will b
 e familiar with "The Hockey Sweater\," "Our Life with the Rocket\," and "La

 ol quarterback who joined the RCMP in the 60s. Mom was a typical 50s Cathol
 ic schoolgirl. Older daughter Kim is an elementary school teacher and new m
 om. Younger daughter Nicole is a bicycle riding eco-queer vegan. Son Steven
  decided at the age of 23 that it was time to be honest with himself and th
 ose closest to him and he began the process of becoming Gwen. Malgosia\, a 
 native of Poland\, is Steven's thoughtful and supportive ex-wife. And Roari
  is Steven/Gwen's best friend of 18 years and Gwen's most unwavering ally.<
 /p><p>She's a Boy I Knew tells the story of Steven's transition and how tha
 t transition affects those closest to her. Using archival footage and anima
 tion to illustrate her story\, filmmaker Gwen Haworth allows us to become a
  part of the inner circle of family and friends as they grapple with the ch
 anges that are happening and the feelings that arise along the way. What ma
 kes this film so refreshing is the thoughtfulness and self-examination of e
 veryone involved. We're privy to complicated yet eloquently articulated fee
 lings of anger\, betrayal and fear as well as compassion\, love and accepta
 nce. These are smart\, observant\, self-aware people talking about the thin
 gs that are hardest to talk about\, yet doing so with incredible insight\, 
 grace and honesty.</p><p>Sponsored by: XTRA!West & UBC Department of Theatr

 leased to present an exhibition by Toronto artist Luis Jacob.  This exhibit
 ion features the Vancouver premiere of work from a new series of video inst
 allations—A Dance for Those of Us Whose Hearts Have Turned to Ice…—that Jac
 ob produced for Documenta 12\, which took place in Kassel\, Germany\, from 
 June to September 2007.  His work received a positive critical response.</p
 ><p>Jacob’s work explores the relationship between sculpture and dance\, an
 d takes its inspiration from two seemingly disparate art historical sources
 —the sculpture of British artist Barbara Hepworth\, and the choreography of
  Quebecoise artist Françoise Sullivan.  Sullivan’s performance of Danse dan
 s la neige in 1948 was a seminal event in the history of modern dance in Ca
 nada. A Dance for Those of Us Whose Hearts Have Turned to Ice… pays homage 
 to this legendary work of modern Canadian art.</p><p>Also included in the e
 xhibition is Album III\, a work that consists of hundreds of photographic i
 mages collected from a variety of books\, magazines\, and other publication

 <em>"In my work I am ruminating on how representations are internalized\, t
 hen projected outwards--mapped onto the world.  I am interested in how repr
 esentation alters and shapes our physical experience and perception of real
 ity. That painting operates as both image and substance parallels this unde
 rstanding. Painting has a mediated and an immediate aspect.  Otherwise insu
 bstantial images are bodied forth with an inexorable physicality. My painti
 ngs accentuate this duality with moments where thick paint insists on its m
 ateriality--challenging the illusionism of the picture\, even as it is inte
 gral to it."</em></p><p>Bio:<br />Ben Reeves studied at the University of B

 cate and re-imagine seminal moments in slapstick comedy and classical music
 . With sources that range from Johann Sebastian Bach to Glenn Gould\, and P

 creators\; and\, in so doing\, maps out an extended timeline that travels f
 rom the historical past to an imagined future.</p><p>Tim Lee’s practice spa
 ns video\, photography and sculpture\, and employs unique thematic combinat

 m Lee’s practice to be released in February\, 2008. It includes texts by Fr

  Professor of Humanties in Atkinson College\, and a member of the graduate 
 programs in Communication and Culture\, the Department of Music\, and the G
 raduate Programme of Social and Political Thought at York Universi</p><p>Th
 e popularity of digital cat photographs circulating through the Internet an
 d across North American visual culture provides an occasion for a critical 
 exploration of human-cat relations in contemporary culture. I explore some 
 of the histories and meanings of these cat-messages as they travel through 
 the connected terrains of traditional and digital photography\, old and new
  technologies of visual culture\, the philosophy of human-animal relations 
 and the companion animals debate\, the social history of women\, the indust
 rialization of urban space\, and species interactions in urban culture. In 
 conclusion\, I argue that the highly ambiguous physical and symbolic status
  of cats and the proliferation of human-cat networks in both urban and elec
 tronic space are part of an emergent posthuman landscape in which the mutua
 l dependency of diverse animals is more important (if no less volatile) tha
 n the unique qualities of distinct species.</p><p><strong>Jody Berland</str

 has published widely on cultural studies\, Canadian communication theory\, 
 music and media\, cultural studies of the environment\, and the cultural te

 sentation of privacy in nineteenth-century French painting. She has present
 ed several conference papers on depictions of reading as an assertion of pr
 ivacy and has an article on nineteenth-century women readers forthcoming in
  a collection published by Routledge entitled Intimate Metropolis. Accordin
 g to Dr Brown\, notions of 'private' and 'public' based on separate physica
 l spaces were repeatedly called into question in the nineteenth century wit
 h<br />the result that artists explored new expressions of individual priva
 cy in both domestic and social settings. Dr Brown's research explores how s
 uch works not only prefigure contemporary<br />conceptions of the modern\, 
 liberal individual's right to exercise privacy in public and other social s
 paces\, but also experiment in dramatic ways with the communication and wit
 hholding of visual information on the painted surface of the canvas.</p><p>

 ites Pierre Bourdieu in his foreword to Museum Highlights\, is able to "tri
 gger a social mechanism\, a sort of machine infernale whose operation cause

 by incorporating and inhabiting the social role it sets out to critique - a
 s in a performance piece in which she leads a tour as a museum docent and d
 escribes the men's room in the same elevated language that she uses to desc
 ribe seventeenth-century Dutch paintings. Influenced by the interdisciplina

 artistic and intellectual frameworks - institutional critique\, with its si

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>In three years of filmic research\, the ar
 tist and author Stefan Romer has interviewed numerous outstanding internati
 onal artists with his film team.</p><p>In engaging in intellectual exchange
 s before the camera\, Stefan Romer is able to develop a special filmic mode
  of reflecting on the state of international contemporary art.</p><p>The fi
 lm essay <em>Conceptual Paradise: There Is a Place for Sophistication</em> 
 traces out the debates that allowed the intellectual art movement of Concep
 tual art to emerge in the 1960s and led to the most relevant questions in a
 rt today. The artists speak about their own artistic practices and the soci
 o-historical development of the various conceptual movements. In so doing\,
  it becomes clear that there can be no one valid definition of conceptual a
 rt\, since a permanent engagement also makes up its theoretical and philoso
 phical complexity\, including for example the question of whether there can
  be art without an object.</p><p>In these discussions with the most interes
 ting artists and art theorists alive today\, the fiction and ideal of art a
 s political engagement are brought to life. The history of art is a history
  of struggles around strategies of representation. This makes this film abo
 ut Conceptual art also a film about filmmaking. Stefan Romer reflects in nu
 merous passages of the film with the well-known German filmmaker Hartmut Bi
 tomsky about the documentary as a genre.</p><p>With the documentary essay C
 onceptual Paradise\, Stefan Romer continues his analytic engagement with fo
 rms and modes of narrative for artistic documentation. Beside his extensive
  body of photography\, his recent work includes the Super 8 film Corporate 
 Psycho Ambient and The Analysis of Beauty\, a short film produced on the ba
 sis of single photographic montages (on the DVD Loop Pool \, commissioned b
 y Internationale Kurzfilmtage Oberhausen 2005). His filmic praxis extends b
 ack before the period of video activism in the mid-1990s\, including interv
 iew videos\, for example on the 1993 exhibition Unfair\, and numerous multi
 media punk performances in the 1980s.</p><p><em>Artists: </em><em>Vito Acco

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Murray's work explores the horrors of ban
 al choices. To April 6th.</h4><p><strong>the strange space that will keep u
 s together</strong> is a survey exhibition of emerging\, Montreal-based pai
 nter Wil Murray. The exhibition consists of a selection of works made after
  the July 2003 destruction by fire of his West Pender Street studio space\,
  the historic Pender Auditorium\, to the present day. In his work\, Murray 
 picks up the dropped threads of abstract modern painting\, playfully subver
 ting its dogma\, while seriously re-engaging its central themes.</p><p>Murr
 ays work explores the horrors of banal choices. In every choice\, there is 
 an element of madness. The most reasoned decision is still a leap of faith 
 into an unknowable future- a leap which is never made alone\, as its conseq
 uences ripple out. Paint is poured onto a support\, slowly built up layer b
 y layer\, sections are cut out and tacked onto other works. Marks are made 
 and effaced\, at some points visible\, at others concealed. A story is told
 \, but the tale is not straightforward. Against mastery\, against autonomy\
 , Murray’s process is suggestive of the tension between the terror of the c
 ontingency of identity and the spaces caused by incommensurable differences
 .</p><p>Wil Murray was born and raised in Calgary\, Alberta. He attended th
 e Alberta College of Art + Design for two years before moving to Vancouver 
 to open a studio. Murray was short-listed for the RBC Painting Competition 
 (2005) and was included in the Magenta Foundation’s Carte Blanche Vol. 2: P
 ainting (2007). Represented by the Patrick Mikhail Gallery\, Murray’s work 
 is included in collections in Canada and the United States.</p><p>This exhi
 bition is curated by <strong>Jacqueline Mabey</strong>\, a candidate to the
  Masters Degree in Critical and Curatorial Studies at The University of Bri
 tish Columbia.</p><p><em>We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Alvin

 bstracts of Papers<br /></strong><br /><strong>Kathryn Brown</strong> (UBC)
 : ‘The Spectator as Performer’<br />Taking specific examples from nineteent
 h-century painting\, this paper identifies various invitations extended to 
 the spectator to perform a role in relation to the fiction represented on t
 he painted surface. I argue that the invitation to perform is a crucial par
 t of the content of the work that enhances our experience of\, and interact
 ion with\, that work. By considering a variety of critical responses in rec
 ent art historical literature to selected nineteenth-century paintings\, I 
 explore how a performative view of spectatorship not only assists in the in
 terpretation of pictorial content\, but also avoids ontological confusion b
 etween the actual space of the spectator and the fictional space of the rep
 resentation. I distinguish the role of the spectator as performer from Woll
 heim’s concept of the internal spectator and from Kendall Walton’s concept 
 of visual make-believe in relation to representation.<br /><strong>Bence Na
 nay</strong> (Syracuse and UBC): ‘The Hitchcock Paradox’<br />The aim of th
 is paper is to analyze the mental processes that make it possible for the s
 pectator to engage with a fictional character. Character engagement is most
  often explained in terms of 'imagining from the inside' the experiences of
  the fictional character. I argue that this way of explaining character ree
 ngagement cannot explain what I call 'the Hitchcock paradox': the phenomeno
 n that often the more dissimilar the mental<br />states of the spectator an
 d the fictional character are\, the stronger is the spectator's engagement 
 with the fictional character. I propose an alternative account that is cons
 istent with and explains the Hitchcock paradox.<br /><strong>James Young</s
 trong> (University of Victoria): ‘Artworlds and Audiences’<br />The thesis 
 of this paper is that audiences play a crucial but under-appreciated role i
 n the functioning of a well-ordered artworld. A well-ordered artworld is a 
 system for the production and appreciation of aesthetically valuable works 
 of art. This system can break down if artists cease to be responsive to an 
 audience or if audiences cease to be critically informed about artworks. I 
 suggest that the contemporary artworld has broken down in both ways.</p><p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Day one of a 2-day conference.</p><p>The s
 acred spaces allied with medieval and medieval revival art and architecture
  were a locus of identification\, which appears to contradict the more rece
 nt commodification of the sacred and the antique. Because contemporary cons
 umption markets the antique\, and academia must accept its complicity\, the
  constitution of what is sacred remains important in defining the past and 
 present moment.</p><p>The aim of this 2-day conference is to share research
  and new perspectives on sacred spaces in the context of medieval and medie
 val revival art and architecture. One particular area of inquiry is how doe
 s a Canadian perspective enhance the study of medieval time and space inclu
 ding its various reiterations. The conference will broadly address the ques
 tion of what compels the continued re-examination of sacred spaces with par
 ticular emphasis on medieval and medieval revival social and spatial struct
 ures. This broad context allows for a variety of multi-disciplinary\, inter
 -disciplinary\, and theoretical approaches to the study of medieval art and
  its various revivals since the Middle Ages.</p><p>Papers will be considere
 d that address any art practice in the medieval or medieval revival periods
 \, including<br />• Social and cultural constitutions of sacred spaces<br /
 >• Iconology and iconography of the sacred<br />• Performance and reificati
 on of sacred spaces<br />• Imagined spaces and cultic spaces<br />• Express
 ions of cultural identity through architecture<br />• Strategies of patrona
 ge and religiosity<br />• Public and private constructions of sacred spaces
 <br />• Manifestations of the sacred in texts\, culture\, and/or the body<b
 r />• Sacred pilgrimage<br />• De-sanctified spaces<br />• Gender and sexua
 lity in relation to sacred spaces.<br />Submissions on these and related to
 pics are welcome from fields including\, but not limited to art history\, c
 lassics\, language and literature\, religion\, architecture\, and cultural 
 studies.</p><p>Deadline for submission of papers was Sept 22\, 2007</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p> </p><p>Vancouver-based artist <strong>Gu 
 Xiong</strong> spent the spring and summer of 2006 taking photographs and s
 hooting video from boats on Winnipeg's Red River\, the Qingxi River near Ch
 ongqing in China\, and the Rhine in Germany\, Switzerland\, and the Netherl
 ands. Red River is the premiere of this work\, which consists of a four-cha
 nnel video installation with audio\, photographs (often presented as a scro
 ll or panorama)\, and drawings. The new work is accompanied by video docume
 ntation of drawings made by the artist between 1972 and 1976 when\, as an u
 rban\, educated youth or zhiqing\, he was one of many students exiled to th
 e countryside during the Chinese Cultural Revolution. Copies of the sketchb
 ooks are also accessible in the adjoining reading room.</p><p><em>Red River
 </em> examines globalization by bringing together social processes\, mobili
 ty of place\, and cultural interaction to connect with representation\, ide
 ntity\, and memory through commingling and juxtaposing images. Within this 
 cultural economy\, travel and rivers serve as metaphors for global configur
 ations that are equally fluid and transnational. Nomadic patterns of global
 ization are explored through the centrality of global flows of technology b
 ringing a rapid transmission of information and geographical displacement t
 hrough world markets\, cultural tourism\, and the proliferation of real and
  imaginary landscapes. As Gu Xiong comments\, formerly distinct geographies
 \, economies\, and cultures are transformed through "cultural entwining\, s
 plicing\, convolution\, and idiosyncrasy\, and how these relate to present 
 time\, as we move towards global uncertainty. The work maps out a process w
 hereby cultural clues serve only as mutations\, aberrations\, and misquotat
 ions."</p><p>Immersed within the installation are images from an interactiv
 e commercial CD-ROM designed for karaoke. The journey depicted through this
  technology collapses time and space through picturing a global system of c
 ommerce and tourism. These elements are intertwined through the karaoke sin
 ging of "Red River Valley\," a song with broad popularity in China where it
  is known as a Canadian folk song. Within the installation the song lends i
 tself to negotiate a polyphonic reading of a global cultural discourse that
  performs simultaneously as familiar and foreign\, as conservative and libe
 rating\, as past and present\, yet\, neither in isolation. A karaoke machin
 e is a functional element in the installation.</p><p><em>Gu received a BFA 
 and MFA from the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute in Chongqing\, China\, and is 
 an Associate Professor in the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Th
 eory at the University of British Columbia. His work has been exhibited int
 ernationally including the China Institute Gallery in New York (2006)\, the
  Shanghai Biennale (2004)\, MultipleCity in Panama (2003)\, Le Mois de la P
 hoto in Montréal (2001)\, and the Montréal Biennale (2000). His work is rep
 resented in the collections of the National Gallery of Canada\, the China N
 ational Museum of Fine Arts\, the Vancouver Art Gallery\, and many private 
 collections. He has completed three large public art projects in Canada and
  the United States\; Safeco Field\, Washington State Major League Baseball 
 Stadium\, Seattle\; the Seattle Public Library Columbia City Branch\, Seatt
 le\, WA\; and MacDonald Stewart Art Centre Donald Forster Sculpture Park\,

 ry at the University of British Columbia and the co-curator of Exponential 
 Future at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, participate.</p><p>Thur
 sday\, March 27\, 8pm<br />Juan A. Gaitán (curator)</p><p>Speakeasy: Fronti
 erism is a series that addresses notions of unchecked urban expansion withi
 n a larger consideration of the city. Vancouver has often been characterize
 d as a boomtown that has yet to bust\, but the rapid and rabid growth of th
 e city reveals an unhealthy appetite for unchecked development. The frontie
 r is a physical\, technological and intellectual place of possibility\, an 
 outer limit away from the known centre. While the frontier is often underst
 ood as a site of opportunity\, frontierism has long been critiqued for its 
 potential repercussions: environmental destruction\, racism\, poverty\, dis
 ease and humanitarian regression. Contextualizing this discussion within th
 e past two incarnations of Speakeasy - Serial Space and Territory - the ser
 ies continues to articulate how civic space is defined and questions whethe
 r the urban frontier is spatial\, geographic\, political\, social or econom
 ic.</p><p>Notes on the Speakers<br />Thursday\, March 27\, 8pm</p><p>Juan A
 . Gaitán will participate in a dialogue with Brian Jungen on the production
  of community through radio\, particularly in rural\, frontier settings suc
 h as Colombia where he is curating an exhibition on the topic.</p><p>Gaitán
  is a Vancouver based art historian and curator. His research interests are
  the Americas in the post-War period\, religious monuments in the early mid
 dle ages\, and contemporary art. He is a PhD candidate in art history at th
 e University of British Columbia and is the co-curator of Exponential Futur
 e at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery.</p><p>Brian Jungen will speak
  with Juan A. Gaitán his interest in radio's galvanization of community\, s
 pecifically in northern\, rural communities where he is undertaking a radio
  project.</p><p>Jungen is an internationally acclaimed artist who has solo 
 shows at the Tate Modern\, London\; Museum Villa Stuck\, Munich\; Vancouver
  Art Gallery\; Musee d'art contemporain de Montreal\; New Museum\, New York
 \; Witte de With\; Vienna Secession\; Contemporary Art Gallery\, Vancouver\
 ; Casey Kaplan\, New York\; and Catriona Jeffries Gallery\, Vancouver\, amo
 ng others.</p><p>Lee Henderson will read from his ahistorical novel\, The M
 an Game\, about the origin of a sport invented in Vancouver in the 1800s th
 at combines wrestling\, street fighting\, ballroom dancing\, martial arts\,
  and gambling\, and is played by unemployed lumberjacks. The novel follows 
 Vancouver's founding fathers\, race riots\, red light districts\, opium tra
 de\, and deforestation.</p><p>Henderson wrote The Broken Record Technique (
 2002) and his fiction and visual art journalism has been published in numer
 ous journals and magazines.<br />The Man Game will be published by Viking/P
 enguin (2008). He is a contributing editor to Border Crossings and Contempo
 rary\, and has curated exhibitions in Vancouver and New York. He is the dir
 ector/curator of Attache Gallery\, a portable art gallery that shows emergi
 ng artists.<br />Friday\, March 28\, 8pm</p><p>John Atkin will speak about 
 Vancouver from its inception to the present\, identifying relationships bet
 ween developers and the City in order to define its "frontier" nature.</p><
 p>Atkin is an author\, historian and heritage advocate who offers offbeat i
 nsights into Vancouver's architecture\, history and neighbourhoods. He has 
 created\, and conducts\, unique and popular walking tours throughout Vancou
 ver. He is also the editor of British Columbia History: The Journal of the 
 British Columbia Historical Federation.</p><p>Mari Fujita will discuss Vanc
 ouver via various readings of territory to understand how Vancouver engages
  with larger spheres of influence.</p><p>Fujita is a designer and educator.
  Her research examines material processes\, the shifting role of the archit
 ect in the present cultural\, economic\, political\, and technological clim
 ate\, as well as notions of territory and emergent forms of urbanism in dev
 eloping cities. Her design practice FUJITAWORK pursues a diverse range of p
 rojects\, including projects small-scale gallery installations\, building d
 esigns\, and urban scale interventions that have been exhibited at Cooper H
 ewitt Museum\, Storefront for Art and Architecture (NY) among others.</p><p
 >Meredith Quartermain will read from her forthcoming collection entitled Ni
 ghtmarker (NeWest\, 2008). Against the ghostly presence of George Vancouver
 's explorer narratives\, Nightmarker finds interest in the city and its ear
 ly histories. In expeditions to City Hall\, the police station\, the sugar 
 refinery\, and the courthouse\, and ramblings in between\, Quartermain expl
 ores the human city as an animal behaviour\, a museum\, and a dream of mode
 rnity.</p><p>Quartermain's Vancouver Walking won the BC Book Awards 2006 Pr
 ize for Poetry. Books include The Eye-Shift of Surface\, Wanders [with Robi
 n Blaser]\, and A Thousand Mornings\, prose poems about old Vancouver's doc

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Students and Faculty are invited to join u
 s for a discussion of MA candidate in Critical and Curatorial Studies Jacqu
 eline Mabey’s exhibition the strange space that will keep us together\, a s
 urvey of the work of Montreal-based painter Wil Murray.</p><p>Grant Arnold 
 has worked at the Vancouver Art Gallery since 1992. The first Audain Curato
 r of British Columbia Art\, he has organized exhibitions such as Mark Lewis
 : Modern Time\, Fred Herzog: Vancouver Photographs\, and Real Pictures: Pho
 tographs from the Collection of Claudia Beck and Andrew Gruft.</p><p>The st
 range space that will keep us together consists of a selection of works mad
 e after the July 2003 destruction by fire of Murray’s West Pender Street st
 udio space\, the historic Pender Auditorium\, to the present day. Murray’s 
 work explores the horrors of banal choices. In every choice\, there is an e
 lement of madness. The most reasoned decision is still a leap of faith into
  an unknowable future- a leap which is never made alone\, as its consequenc
 es ripple out. Paint is poured onto a support\, slowly built up layer by la
 yer\, sections are cut out and tacked onto other works. Marks are made and 
 effaced\, at some points visible\, at others concealed. A story is told\, b
 ut the tale is not straightforward. Against mastery\, against autonomy\, Mu
 rray’s process is suggestive of the tension between the terror of the conti
 ngency of identity and the spaces caused by incommensurable differences.</p
 ><p>Wil Murray was born and raised in Calgary\, Alberta. He attended the Al
 berta College of Art + Design for two years before moving to Vancouver to o
 pen a studio. Murray was short-listed for the RBC Painting Competition (200
 5) and was included in the Magenta Foundation’s Carte Blanche Vol. 2: Paint
 ing (2007). Represented by the Patrick Mikhail Gallery\, Murray’s work is i
 ncluded in collections in Canada and the United States.</p>

 tural awareness. Many common threads link these aesthetically diverse works
 : e.g. the construction of identity:<br />childhood\, gender\, race\, sexua
 lity\; reflections on digital technology\; city planning\, urban constructi
 on\, and the coming Vancouver Olympics\; the environment\, ideas of nature\
 , and the landscape tradition\; nostalgia\; labour.</p><p>We invite you to

 \, and Khanh Vo\, four contemporary artists who address themes of family\, 
 loss\, and the intricacies of memory.  These artists interpret the thirty-y
 ear influence of the Vietnam War through autobiographical experiences\, nar
 ratives\, and postmemories.  Working in a variety of mediums\, these four a
 rtists confront the socio-political and emotional complexities of warfare a
 nd the events that consequently define who they are today.</p><p>These arti

 e in Vancouver through the rise of its cuisine. A portion of his installati
 on will be exhibited off-site at the Le Do Vietnamese Restaurant.</p><p>Pip

 that exists between Vietnam and the United States.  Nguyen-duy’s current wo
 rk draws inspiration from traditional landscape painting and his memories o
 f childhood in Vietnam during the war. He currently resides in Ashland\, Or
 egon.</p><p>Khanh Vo’s installation is an exploration of sociological time 
 that references both the past and future of Vietnamese refugees in America.
   In his work\, the New York-based Vo considers the idea of the “refugee sp
 ace”\, a concept he created to consider the displacement experienced by the
  Vietnamese in America.</p><p><em>Everything Is Not Lost</em> looks into th
 e profound relationship the artists have to a Vietnam they may have little 
 or no recollection of.  While an apparent cultural connection fuels the art

 m>Electronic Seascape </em>and other works including Victor Doray's <em>Pic
 -A-Mix<br /></em>with works from the collection.</p><p>The Belkin Art Galle
 ry is pleased to present three exhibitions featuring work by Holly Ward\, N
 oam Gonick and Luis Jacob\, and Audrey Doray.  Idyll takes measure of the c
 urrent upsurge of interest in the 1960s in the visual arts.</p><p>Audrey Do
 ray was a pioneer in multi-media\, interactive and digitally based art when
  she produced Wheel of Fortune in 1968 and Electronic Seascape in 1969.  Th
 is section will also included some of Doray’s paintings and a multi-media w
 ork by her late husband Victor Doray.</p><p>Wildflowers of Manitoba is a mu
 ltimedia performance installation by Noam Gonick and Luis Jacob.  The work 
 was featured at the 2007 Montreal Biennale.  It consists of four short film
 s and sound presented in a furnished geodesic dome.  The films show four yo
 ung men living off the grid in a survivalist camp on the shores of Lake Win
 nipeg during the summer of 2006.  The loosely scripted scenes establish a n
 aturalist idyll seemingly removed from contemporary life.</p><p>Holly Ward’
 s 2005 work\, called Radical Rupture\, is an installation that incorporates
  a recording of a 1967 speech given by Herbert Marcuse in London\, “On Libe
 ration from the Affluent Society” as the sound track for a projection of an
  erratic starry night.</p><p>We gratefully acknowledge the support of The C
 anada Council for The Arts.</p>

 works of communication within various social milieus.</p><p>In keeping with
  Mallett's interest in alternative\, often unsanctioned\, forms of dialogue
 \, the photographs in Marginalia depict annotations and graffiti found in s
 elected books circulated by the Vancouver Public Library. The marked pages 
 reflect the opinions of teens\, feminists and art historians\, as expressed
  in subject areas ranging from teen suicide to Milton's Paradise Lost. In r
 epresenting the marginalia in situ\, alongside the official text\, Mallett'
 s photographs reveal reading as a practice that can be rife with contestati
 on\, even fury.</p>

 y is pleased to announce the upcoming group exhibition INTERIOR OF DESIGN.<
 /p><p>Curated by Jordan Strom\, including work by: Babak Golkar\, Hadley+Ma
 xwell\, YeddaMorrison\, Natasha McHardy and Marina Roy\, Samuel Roy-Bois\, 
 Nicole+Ryan\, EricaStocking\, and Brandon Thiessen. Interior of Design re-a
 rranges the margins between art object\, furnishing and architecture as the
 y collectively relate to the art—and the act—of interior design. Here\, int
 erior space and its contents are treated as still life\, as a space of care
 fully considered collection and display\, and a site for the safe consumpti
 on of rarified nature. The exhibition considers the specific return to inte
 rior space in art in the age of the condominium tower at the beginning of a
  new millennium. As the dominant site for the display of art in our society
 \, the space of the domestic interior—especially the space of the living ro
 om—has lived a double-life as semi-privateart gallery. Interior of Design o
 pens up a space to consider this latest phase in the collapse between the p
 rivate interior and art gallery. The exhibition considers the interior as n
 ot only spatial\, but also “image-based.” The artworks in this exhibition p
 ay close attention to modes of presenting the ideals and dreams of the inte
 rior through new “interior” magazines\, television programs\, and Internet 
 sites. The media of interior design may not be any more prominent than it w
 as in the 19th century\, but it has grown more sophisticated in the present
 ation of its “neomodern”self-image. Here the room\, like the furniture\, is
  sectional in its ability to be rearranged\; like a walkthrough\, it is as 
 immersive and skeletal as a wireframe room\; and like a collection of pictu
 res\, it acts as an archive of traces.</p><p><em>Interior of Design</em> wi
 ll be showing at Republic Gallery from June 13th to August 2nd with an open

 ng: Thursday June 19 from 7pm to 9pm<br />* Please note the weeknight openi
 ng!</p><p>An exhibition exploring the general weirdness of technology and h
 umanity’s attempts to exploit "the technical" to its advantage\, with work 
 by:</p><p>Kelly Jazvac (Toronto)\, Daniel Laskarin (Victoria)\, Evan Lee (V
 ancouver)\, Julio Lopez (Vancouver)\, Jason McLean (Toronto)\, Robert McNea
 ly (Vancouver)\, Steven Rayner (Nova Scotia)\, Jon Sasaki (Toronto)\, Ian W
 allace (Vancouver)\, Neil Wedman (Vancouver)</p><p>Progress\, in all its gu
 ises — including the invention and expansion of technologies — is the centr
 al tenet of Modernism. The arts and sciences both have experimentation at t
 heir core\; neither the results of experiments nor the ways in which new te
 chnologies will exist in the world can ever be accurately predicted.</p><p>
 This exhibition was inspired by Julio Lopez’s wall sculptures depicting com
 puter-generated warning messages such as "permanent fatal error." These mes
 sages have a long history of driving humans to distraction\, while offering
  "solutions" that often lead to vicious cycles of frustration\, rather than
  resolutions. Technology itself shares some of the qualities of those infur
 iating messages\, promising much\, and\, in the end\, like millions of cast
 -off voters\, delivering little except more garbage to despoil the landscap
 e. The technologies in this show are failed (Laskarin\, Sasaki\, Wallace)\,
  parodied (Jazvac\, Lopez\, McNealy)\, aestheticized (Lee\, McLean\, Wedman
 ) or invasive — as in Steven Rayner’s reanimated taxidermied animals.<br />
 Science\, art\, and technology all play in the global sandbox of endless im
 provement\; that search is explored here\, as is humanity’s inability to fo
 resee the results of its own inventiveness. The exhibition title comes from
  a 1962 Bell Labs ad announcing the invention of the laser. The ad’s text e
 nds with: "research and development\, which have brought so much to so many
 \, have but touched the fringe of still greater progress to come."</p><p>Op
 ening: Thursday June 19\, 7pm to 9pm<br />Several of the artists will be in
  attendance</p><p>Lunchtime talks at 12:05pm and 12:35pm: Tuesday June 24\,

  Montreal\, Quebec\, <strong>Audrey Capel Doray</strong> received a Bachelo
 r of Fine Arts from McGill University. She went on to study at Atelier 17 i
 n Paris and at the Central School of Art in London. After moving to Vancouv
 er in 1957\, Capel Doray taught at the Vancouver School of Art from 1959 to
  1961 (now Emily Carr University of Art + Design). She joined the New Desig
 n Gallery in 1962\, a critically important arts space that presented live t
 heatre\, visual art\, films\, concerts\, lectures and poetry readings and a
 ttracted the likes of Marshall McLuhan\, Raymond Massey and Lawrence Ferlin
 ghetti to its events. Doray’s transparent plastic kinetic-audio-light sculp
 tures were featured in <em>Arts Canada</em> and received critical acclaim a
 cross North America by the end of the 1960s. After a revelatory trip to Sal
 t Spring Island\, Capel Doray returned to Vancouver a landscape artist\, us
 ing new media technology to represent nature\; she would later participate 
 in the Stein\, Carmanah and Tsitika valley art projects. A recipient of fou
 r Canada Council awards\, Capel Doray’s work is held in numerous private an
 d public collections\, both nationally and internationally. A selection of 
 her work is on view at the Belkin Art Gallery.</p><p><strong>Joan Balzar</s
 trong> graduated from the Vancouver School of Art in 1957\, and went on to 
 study in Paris (1957)\, Mexico (1959) and Guatemala (1959). Balzar was a pr
 ominent member of the Vancouver scene during the 1960s – when she had sever
 al exhibitions and was included in important group shows – and was a key fi
 gure in the development of West Coast abstract painting. In her work\, Balz

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>September 5 - 21\, 2008\, Opening recepti
 on: Thursday September 4\, 7 to 10pm</h4><p>The Belkin Art Gallery is pleas
 ed to present an exhibition of work by the 2008 graduates of UBC's two-year
  Master of Fine Art program.</p><p><strong>Raymond Boisjoly's</strong> focu
 s is the equivocal status of materiality in the active pursuit of meaning m
 ade manifest through cultural phenomena. The transposition of a seasonal ob
 ject onto an indigenous form provides an opportunity to negotiate their cum
 ulative connotative potential.</p><p><strong>Melanie Bond</strong> explores
  the relationship between physical geography and personal memory.  Her seri
 es of photographs portray artists from Vancouver\, Canada\, and Chongqing\,
  China\, at a place with which they feel a connection.</p><p><strong>Natali
 e Doonan </strong>employs a range of strategies including performance\, vid
 eo\, social networking and print media to playfully engage in productions o
 f subjectivity.  The work that she has prepared for this exhibition is an h
 omage to the artist Veronika Martz\, who recently disappeared in the midst 
 of research into a creation myth for an upcoming film.</p><p><strong>Jesse 
 Gray</strong> engages in the act of collecting—scavenging\, foraging\, garb
 age-picking\, alley-scrounging—and the practice of recombination\, as an in
 vestigation into the hidden meanings and secret histories of discarded obje
 cts and things.</p><p><strong>Josh Hite's</strong> video work looks at how 
 spaces and their arrangement are transformed by those who use them.  Influe
 nced by Michel de Certeau\, Hite optimistically investigates potential and 
 real confrontation between those who move through spaces\, and the physical
  structures designed to make them move.</p><p><strong>Ryan Peter'</strong>s
  paintings borrow from the history of photography—the daguerreotype\, aspec
 ts of Pictorialism\, and more recent phenomena such as x-ray and satellite 
 photography. The techniques Peter employs in the application of paint\, suc
 h as pouring\, pooling\, and spraying\, create the potential for multiple r
 eadings of his work.  This slippery representation undermines the apparent 
 aspirations of the work to photographic distance and mimesis\, re-situating
  the work in the sphere of bodily and lived experience.</p><p><em>For more

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>September 13th through October 18th 2009 
 with an artist reception on Saturday\, September 13th\, 2 - 5 pm.</h4><p>Th
 e exhibition features a new work entitled Falling Woman\, a large scale\, l
 ooped video depicting a woman trapped in a never-ending fall.</p><p>The fal
 l specifically references art historical events and works\, such as Yves Kl
 ein's photomontage farce <em>Leap into the Void</em> and the loss of contro
 l in the humble gestures of Bas Jan Ader's falling pieces. D'Onofrio addres
 ses the influence feminist discourse has had on her own practice and positi
 oning\, and particularly references second wave feminist artist Ana Mendiet
 a\, known for her site-specific installations and performances. Mendieta at
 tempted to retrieve the nude body from the masculine eye\; in her signature
  "Sileuta" series she imposed her body onto the environment with impression
 s of her contours\, a series that foreshadowed her untimely and suspicious 
 death. In <em>Falling Woman</em> the body continues to be a battleground of
  desire and exploitation.</p><p>The fall in <em>Falling Woman</em> represen
 ts the D'Onofrio's interest in contrived depictions of unconsciousness. The
  piece plays with the dream of falling interpreted as a loss of control or 
 the feeling of fear and humiliation that comes in dreams of being naked. Th
 e wind from the fall forces the protagonist's dress over her head\, which s
 imultaneously conceals her identity and exposes her body\, acting as a natu
 ral yet exploitative flirtation with the camera. Autonomy and control clash
 \, for the subject has not jumped nor has she been pushed and she will neve
 r land\; instead she is in the midst of a continuous falL The meeting of th
 ese moments manifest themselves in an endless sublime sky where we witness 
 the woman frustrated in her attempt to connect with it\, in a piece that as
 ks: can feminists fly?</p><p><em>Christine D'Onofrio would like to express 
 her gratitude to the Canada Council for the Arts for their generous support
  in the research and execution of this project. Falling Woman is Christine'
 s second solo show with Republic Gallery\, and will be showing from Septemb
 er 13th through October 18th with an artist reception on Saturday\, Septemb

 Margaret Atwood writes “These are not lectures about how to get out of debt
 \; rather\, they’re about the debtor/creditor twinship in the broadest sens

 h4>Opening OCTOBER 17\, 8 PM\, Artist Talk OCTOBER 21\, 8 PM</h4><p>This Oc
 tober 17th\, VIVO Media Arts Centre will premier new works by Marina Roy an
 d Abbas Akhavan. For most Vancouverites\, the transformation of domestic sp
 ace and its discontents are a fact of life. But for Roy and Akhavan some of
  the radical changes and debates in this city over housing have proved insp
 irational and activating. Since 2000 they have worked together as friends a
 nd collaborators. Although the two have very different visual styles they s
 hare an interest in domestic life\, urban space\, and the ever changing rel
 ationship between humans and the natural world.</p><p>2 years in the making
 \, Apartment by Marina Roy is an expansive animation loosely inspired by Ge
 orges Perec's 1978 novel La Vie Mode D'emploi\, in which the author takes u
 s through each room of an apartment building in Paris\, following the patte
 rn of the knight's move in chess. Roy\, like Perec uses this structure to w
 eave together intersecting images of indulgence and dreaming\, chaos\, illn
 ess\, and transgression. Wild plants and animals take over the slowly deter
 iorating rooms as the residents\, and indeed the whole space\, seem to succ
 umb to a mysterious virus.</p><p>Born in Tehran\, Iran\, and residing in Ca
 nada for the last thirteen years\, Abbas Akhavan is fascinated by the ways 
 domestic objects can suggest violent acts or become tools for exerting powe
 r. After many hours of assisting in the animation of Apartment\, Akhavan de
 veloped a sculpture that physicalizes the two artists shared interest in th
 e metaphoric significance of plant life. His piece simultaneously protects 
 the gallery and Roy's work and confronts visitors with a challenge. Akhavan
 's aesthetic economy may contrast visually with Roy's lush visual style\, b
 ut his piece also speaks of the multifaceted domestic realm.</p><p>Curated 
 by Joni Murphy and Kika Thorne. OCTOBER 17 - NOVEMBER 5 2008 | TUES - SAT N
 OON - 6PM.</p><p><em>This exhibition is generously supported by friends\, v

 a contemporary art (new media) installation.</h4><p>This October 18\, Surre
 y Art Gallery's Techlab will host an afternoon open house for the ongoing d
 igital media project Glocal. Already one year into the research\, this new 
 work by M Simon Levin\, Jer Thorp and Sylvia Grace Borda draws on social sc
 ience methods of participatory action research and reworks them towards a c
 ontemporary art (new media) installation over the next six months.</p><p>Ta
 king issue with the ubiquitous and banal state of the image in the 21st cen
 tury as a result of commonly-owned digital devices\, these artists have sou
 ght to create new tools and conceptual practices that inspire the thoughtfu
 l production of images\, despite the ease with which images are massed prod
 uced. By staging a series of workshops for individuals from different cultu
 ral locations such as artists\, educators\, students\, as well as through a
 n online submission process\, this project invites participants to use 21st
  century photographic technologies to investigate\, document and represent 
 their quotidian movements through Greater Vancouver and its environs. Throu
 gh the creation of custom-built software and hardware toolkits\, meant to f
 oster an individual's thinking about\, and ability to make digital images\,
  the Glocal project collects visual data from a distributive network of par
 ticipants. The evolving new media installation\, currently a prototype\, is
  designed to reconfigure collective imaginaries by documenting\, representi
 ng and reworking social spaces\, using interactive display technologies. It
  will allow viewers' physical movements to configure their own visual repre
 sentations of the research data or to explore the images through the aid of
  computer-generated similarity maps.</p><p>This early afternoon open house 
 event\, provides an opportunity for visitors to generate images using the c
 ustom-built software and hardware toolkits\,  to experience the interactive
  prototype\, and to learn about the methodology that will create Canada's l
 argest contributive digital artwork. Please see <a href="http://www.glocal.

  contrived microcosms. Employing the vocabulary of Robert Smithson's Site/N
 onsite works in an explicitly artificial way\, the whimsical but troubling 
 pieces begin to blur the line between real and imagined times and/or places
 . Crisis and anxiety play out through the innocent structures of the sandbo

 larger concerns.</p>

 <p>The Visual Art Theory class for Studio is pleased to announce its upcomi
 ng group exhibition\, Thumbsucker.  Featuring mixed media work by Erin Cath
 erall\, Rebecca Chen\, Anna Cheung\, Lok Him Fung\, Dawn Goldberg\, Perrin 
 Grauer\, Ervin Hadzic\, Christopher Hettel\, Jordana Hovis\, Karen La\, Ant
 hony Lam\,  Hayley HJ Lee\, Linda Lin\, Eddie Liu\,  Kate Nadeau\, Gathaiya
  Njoora\, Holly Parmley\, Eric Rissiek\,  Warren Scheske\, Bita Tabrizi\, A
 dam Tragakis\, Andrea Van Schubert\, Agnieszka Wojdyla\, Carolina Wong\,  K
 elvin Yip and Kenneth Yuen.  The exhibition takes place in the Ridington Re
 ading Room in the Irving K Barber Library\, at the University of British Co
 lumbia from <strong>October 23rd to November 14th\, 2008.</strong></p><p>Th
 e premise of Thumbsucker is to transform everyday books into facets of esse
 ntial truths\, sublime moments or pure nothingness.  From a Utopic book of 
 secrets that is sadly but appropriately blank\, to unprocessed photographic
  paper paper that gets more and more overexposed as each viewer opens it to
  hopes of fulfilling their curiosities.  Other pieces in Thumbsucker try to
  find meaning in the blank and invisible\, they may uncover the idea of the
  invisible through the spaces in between\, and actually create casts of the
  space between the pages or even emptying out the content of a book just to
  have it look right back at you.  Many times access is just not granted at 
 all\, and the book of promise is stuck in a frame\, would disintegrate on t
 ouch\, is stuck in the mud and in the past\, or plays a cruel game on the v
 iewer in search of a fore-edge.</p><p>An essential emptiness is what Thumbs
 ucker seeks to find\, but the promise of wanting something more makes it un
 deniably full.</p><p>Christine D'Onofrio</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>6 December\, 2008 to 24 January\, 2009. O

 as Akhavan\, A.S. Dhillon\, Josephine Meckseper\, Martha Rosler\, Gail Wigh
 t and Retort</p><p><em>shrink-wrapped </em>considers how a group of artists
  and intellectuals have responded to images of war and the image-world lead
 ing up to and since the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Sourced from the flow of 
 media imagery\, much of the work in the exhibition isolates and re-contextu
 alizes content. Images which are not intended to be looked at closely are p
 aused. Through their work\, the artists disrupt imagery which replaces that
  of defeat with victory\, creates desires with promises of newfangled fulfi
 llment\, and teaches acceptance rather than assessment.</p><p>In the works 
 in the exhibition\, representations of the occupation and previous wars are
  conflated in varying ways with those of archival and current protest foota
 ge as well as those from the commodity and luxury culture industry. Through
  the surfaces of travel brochures\, montages\, photomontages\, and broadsid
 es\, the works communicate boldly and graphically\, like those of agitprop.
  Functioning also as objects in circulation\, each work actively engages wi
 th issues of dissemination\, distribution\, and display.</p><p>Included in 
 the exhibition are Adel Abidin’s brochure installation from <em>Abidin Trav
 els</em> (2006)\; Josephine Meckseper’s two video works <em>March for Peace
 \, Justice and Democracy\, 4/29/06\, New York City </em>(2007) and <em>0% D
 own </em>(2008)\; a selection of photomontages from Martha Rosler’s <em>Bri
 nging the War Home: House Beautiful\, new series </em>(2004)\; Gail Wight a
 nd Retort’s<em>Afflicted Powers</em> project (2006)\; and new works by loca
 l artists Abbas Akhavan and A.S. Dhillon.</p><p>The publication accompanyin
 g the exhibition additionally features an essay by Sara Mameni. Following t
 he strategy of using extant information as material\, Mameni reuses the foo
 tnotes from Retort's “Modernity and Terror” to generate a new text.</p><p>T

 <em>Local</em> is an exhibition of 22 Vancouver artists curated by The Apar
 tment in collaboration with Fillip. The exhibition will inhabit Fillip's of
 fice for a week and directly responds to the studio’s location at the corne
 r of Cambie and Cordova Steets in Vancouver. As a commentary on current art
 istic practice and discourse in Vancouver\, Local acknowledges the city’s h
 istory of regionally reflective exhibition making. Local is meant to be a p
 art of this history and contribute to the ongoing discourse.</p><p>Vancouve
 r is recognized world wide as a city for rigorous art making informed by a 
 rich history of research and concept driven practices. The artists included
  in <em>Local </em>are active participants in this conversation. Local is a
 n opportunity to bring these artists work together in a physically engaged 
 public dialogue.</p><p>The project responds to the exhibition site. Gastown
  is the center of fast and furious gentrification. It is the living room of
  Vancouver’s disenfrancised\, densely populated with drug trafficing on str
 eets inhabited with newly established designer boutiques and restaurants. T
 he economic struggle of these conflicting service economies is clearly visi
 ble on Cordova Street where the impoverished try to find shelter in the doo
 rways of developments that will inevitably push them out. Although this con
 flict is not the central paradigm of all the art in Local\, an interest in 
 the street as subject\, site-specific projects\, and sculpture that incorpo
 rates the material reality of this place permeate the exhibition. Economic 
 inequality and the systems of capital are common preoccupations in Vancouve
 r art and Local emphasizes these investigations within this specific contex
 t.</p><p>The art in <em>Local</em> is also literally localized. The works w
 ere selected to express an engagement with the present tense\, the here and
  now. The artists in <em>Local </em>centralize the individual subjects of t
 heir work in the present by choosing common materials directly at hand\, or
 ganizing relational projects that place the viewer in the work\, and proces
 s-based projects that express their time and activity in form. These projec
 ts are rich in political and economic critique\, raising questions around t
 he import of artist labour and the value of their social antagonism.</p><p>
 The opening of <em>Local </em>is held in conjunction with the Vancouver lau
 nch of Five Broadsides\, an edition produced by Fillip in collaboration wit
 h The Apartment featuring newsprint posters by Fia Backström\, Andrew Dadso
 n\, Matthew Higgs\, Colter Jacobsen\, and Frances Stark. For more informati

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Four Vancouver artists welcome the
  New Year by collaborating to exhibit work for two weeks at the site of the
  old A&B Sound at 556 Seymour Street in downtown Vancouver.</strong></p><p>
 <strong>Opening</strong> Tuesday January 6th @ 6-9pm</p><p>Michael Morris i
 s a senior Canadian artist known for his dynamic paintings of the 1960s and
  subsequent work in video\, performance\, photography and conceptual projec
 ts.  The exhibition features a suite of ravishing gouaches realized in the 
 last year that continue the artist's life long project\, "Colour Bar Resear
 ch."</p><p>Attila Richard Lukacs rose to international fame in the 1980s wi
 th his large\, daringly painted figurative paintings.  For "NEW WORK"  he s
 hows his series of  seven paintings called "In the House of...".  These lar
 ge scale works have as their subject Vancouver and Maui\, where the artist 
 has painted for the last several years. In a haunting style one might call 
 "hallucinatory realism\," Lukacs catches the atmosphere\, the light\, the a
 rchitecture and the glitz and the underbelly of our nervous pre-Olympic cit
 y in works of astonishing painterly insight. The Hawaii paintings\, execute
 d on urethane soaked paper\, are of a rich tropic dreamworld punctured by s
 ocial unrest.</p><p>Paul Wong is Canada's preeminent video artist.  He hand
 les video the way Velasquez handles paint. He has recently being producing 
 new works\, portraits\, abstracts and social narratives from his home turf\
 , Vancouver's East Side.  Five of the dazzling new works are included in "N
 EW WORK."</p><p>Since closing his gallery/boutique\, DADABASE in 2008\, Ign
 acio Corral has been painting highly realistic watercolour studies of the h
 eads of world leaders\, such as Evo Morales\, Hugo Chavez\, Kim Jong-il\, a
 nd Barrack Obama. These refreshing works are infused with humour and erotic
 ism.</p><p>The exhibition was conceived and curated by Attila Lukacs on the
  model of the wildly successful "Basement Show" of 2004. In "New Work" the 
 four noteworthy Vancouver artists reanimate a once busy downtown retail bus
 iness on the eve of its conversion into a Graceland style nightclub/art gal
 lery/performance venue that will go some way to revitalizing the downtown c
 ore. The idea is to show new work to a public\, free of charge\, in an impo
 rtant downtown space outside the art institutions.</p><p>The exhibition is 
 generously sponsored by the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, Universit
 y of British Columbia\; Steiner Properties\; Becker Galleries\; The Georgia
  Straight\; Farmstead Wines\; Heineken\; Molson\; and Edible Planet.</p><p>
 For information and images contact Kevin Greisch at <arl@telus.net></p><p> 
 </p><p>The exhibition is open to public from <strong>January 7th to January
  23rd</strong> every day from 1 to 7 p.m. and is free of charge.</p>

 and Helen Belkin Art Gallery is pleased to present Barbara Fischer as part 
 of their ongoing series of lectures on contemporary curatorial practice.</p
 ><p>Barbara Fischer is the Director/Curator of the Justina M. Barnicke Gall
 ery at Hart House\, University of Toronto\, as well as Senior Lecturer in C
 uratorial Studies in the Department of Art\, University of Toronto. Fischer
  is the curator for the Canadian Pavilion at the 53rd Venice Biennale\, 200
 9\, featuring artist Mark Lewis\, and is the recipient of the 2008 Hnatyshy
 n Award for Curatorial Excellence in Contemporary Art.</p><p>Fischer has ta
 ken an interest in the development of Curation as a discipline in the acade
 my. It is on its way to becoming a discursive field\, perhaps even engender
 ing a written history. The growing interest to move beyond personal narrati
 ve and biographical curatorial presentations gives cause to reflect on the 
 why and the what of the profession itself. Curating tends to be driven by i
 nteresting\, compelling\, and urgent causes. With the immediate cost of adm
 inistrative overload\, attempts at narrating from outside of the discipline
  are often side-swiped before they begin. Fischer will situate her particul
 ar curatorial thinking within specific contexts and histories of contempora
 ry art and from there\, sketch something of a history of curating.</p><p>—<

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Opening night January 15\, 8 to 10 pm<br /
 >Runs January 16 to April 19\, 2009</p><p>This exhibition is curated by Kei
 th Wallace and explores an aspect of performance art that is prominent in m
 ainland China and in particular\, Beijing. In mainland China\, performance 
 art is a relatively recent development with not much more than twenty years
  of activity. Action—Camera: Beijing Performance Photography examines the t
 rajectory from the discreet underground performance art community centered 
 in Beijing’s “East Village” in the early 1990s\, to a current international
 ly recognized practice.</p><p>Performance art in China during the early 199
 0s represented a moment when the avant-garde resurfaced in a powerful way i
 n order to break with the past and to forge new artistic directions within 
 a rapidly evolving society. Many of these performances were recorded by pho
 tography and video to provide a document. These early photographs were not 
 necessarily intended to be presented as artwork\, yet have emerged as such 
 in various exhibitions. The artists were quick to acknowledge the power of 
 the photograph and increasingly looked to photography as an integral compon
 ent of their live performance work.</p><p>By the late 1990s\, performance a
 rt became a more clearly defined practice\, and for many artists the photog
 raph functioned not only as a document\, but also as a work of art in itsel
 f. As a further development\, many performances were specifically created f
 or the camera rather than a live audience—the viewer’s access to the “perfo
 rmance” was exclusively through the photograph. The shift from live perform
 ance to staged photograph and the reasons behind it are a central anchor to
  this exhibition.</p><p>Featured artists include: Ai Weiwei\, Cang Xin\, Da
 i Guangyu\, the Gao Brothers (Gao Zheng and Gao Qiang)\, Han Bing\, He Yunc
 hang\, He Chengyao\, Hong Hao\, Li Wei\, Ma Liuming\, RongRong\, Wang Qings
 ong\, Xing Danwen\, Zhang Huan\, and Zhu Ming.</p><p>A catalogue published 
 by the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery accompanies the exhibition. It i
 ncludes colour images\, a list of works and essays by Dr. Thomas J. Berghui
 s of the Department of Art History & Film Studies at the University of Sydn
 ey\, Beijing-based writer and curator Maya Kóvskaya\, and curator and write
 r Keith Wallace.</p><p>This exhibition is presented by Vancouver 2010 Cultu
 ral Olympiad\, The Canada Council for the Arts\, and the Vancouver Foundati
 on. We thank Mark Allison and Stephanie Holmquist for their support.</p><p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>The Glocal Project is a collaborative\, mu
 ltifaceted artist-led project that examines the changing role of digital im
 age making today.  The digital revolution has included the global prolifera
 tion of millions of image-taking devices (such as digital cameras\, video r
 ecorders\, cell phones\, and PDAs) and the sharing of billions of images th
 rough online networking and archival sites (such as Flickr). As this democr
 atization of digital technologies makes the ability to make photographic im
 ages so ubiquitous\, Glocal is interested in looking at the implications of
  the changing roles and relations of images within the field of visuality. 
 Glocal is particularly interested in exploring the construction and relevan
 ce of the “unique” or “originary” image in relation to the multiple or “mul
 titude”. How can an image retain its ‘unique’ nature as resistance against 
 being subsumed into the multitude? How can we understand the nature of “uni
 queness”? Does it remain a relevant concept for digital image making? Throu
 gh an interactive installation as well as a series of on-line platforms\, G
 local examines the new digital lives of images.</p><p>Glocal has been in de
 velopment for the past year\, incubating in the Surrey Art Gallery’s TechLa
 b as an artist in residence project. Starting from scratch\, the team has d
 eveloped software tools\, and hardware gadgets\, and experimented with vari
 ous prototypes of presentation formats and interactivity models. At the sam
 e time\, the team has led various community engagement projects\, built cur
 riculum for numerous high school and university workshops\, and assembled a
  large networks of volunteers\, educators and supporters. For this event\, 
 the Glocal artists will be presenting the culmination of their research/cre
 ation. Viewers will be able to interact with the touch-table prototype that
  explores the aggregation within their 20\,0000+  image archive\, and view 
 a series of large software-generated photographic 'similarity structures'. 
 These 'similarity structures' imagine how an anthropologist might attempt t
 o build relationships between images within the archive. Using an algorithm
  which calculates compositional similarity between images\, elaborate maps 
 and phylogenetic trees are generated\, modeling possible links between imag
 es. These temporally unique visual structures attempt to examine the comple
 x relational environments that surround images in an online space.</p>

 w is a selection of recent art from the province of British Columbia. Drawi
 ng on diverse formal\, material and conceptual approaches\, the exhibition 
 brings together a dynamic group of artists who work in a range of media\, w
 ith a mix of sculpture\, painting\, video\, audio works\, architectural int
 erventions\, site-specific projects and events. The title\, taken from a so
 ng by The Smiths\, evokes one characteristic of the work in the exhibition:
  a sense of immediacy that speaks to the present moment.</p><p>A number of 
 recurring metaphors and motifs run throughout the exhibition: the recording
  studio\, the rehearsal space\, the devalued object\, the space of social i
 nteraction\, architecture\, the unconscious\, literature and narrative\, an
 d a sense of experimentation and risk. Artworks are situated inside and out
 side of the gallery space proper\; on the grounds\, at the entrance\, in th
 e windows\, in the lobby and behind the gallery’s walls\, inviting viewers 
 to look awry and question the conventions of spectatorship.</p><p>How Soon 
 Is Now is organized according to shared connections between works rather th
 an a single theme. Bringing together divergent forms of art\, the exhibitio
 n recognizes some of the important shifts in contemporary art that privileg
 e event over object\, process over product\, interaction over contemplation
 . Gallery spaces become a venue for a range of experiences\, be they transf
 ormative\, social\, sensory\, introspective or political.</p><p>How Soon Is

 tistic and cultural production. Materiality is a theoretically and philosop
 hically embedded concept which can describe the substance or quality of a '
 thing' and demands an attention to the relationships that it solicits from 
 the human agents around it. Ultimately\, it has offered art historians a me
 ans of retaining an interest in 'context' whilst reinvesting in the 'formal
 ' qualities of art (without the 'formalism'). At the same time\, it is a wa
 y of opening up a space for discussion between disciplines and modes of pro

 /p><p> </p><p>What kinds of approaches to art making and intellectual engag
 ement should a BFA programme offer students today?</p><p>This exhibition of
  3rd and 4th-year student artworks provides a sample of the kind of interdi
 sciplinary\, intellectual\, and material approaches that the visual arts si
 de of the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at UBC encourag
 es in its students. Rather than a strict medium-specific approach to making
  art\, courses give students the opportunity to combine technical skill and
  understanding of materials with experimentation across media.</p><p>While 
 disparate\, the artworks in this exhibition reflect a materially and theore
 tically informed art practice\, as much in cultural theory\, art history\, 
 socio-political and environmental issues\, as in contemporary art strategie
 s. These works also privilege process and collaboration over the romantic n
 otion of solo studio production.</p><p>Here one discerns a departmental vis
 ion that is critical of the art market\, yet unimpeded by the veneer of con
 ceptual strictures\, advocating instead a sensitivity to materials (whether
  “traditional”\, craft\, or digital forms)\, to how the body performs\, and
  to the transformative potential of art processes through experimental play
  and intellectual inquiry.</p><p>Marina Roy</p>

 thnography and fiction\, I also discuss some related mediating terms: oral 
 narrative that is partly ethnographic in its evocation of lived milieus\, p
 artly fictional in the imaginative spaces it opens\; ethnographic fiction i

 s and autoethnography.</p><p>Kirin Narayan is Professor of Anthropology at

 n Art Gallery is please to announce that Julian Myers will be participating
  in their ongoing series of lectures on contemporary curatorial practice.</
 p><p>An art historian\, critic\, and curator\, Myers will address so-called
  "riot shows\," rock concerts when the audience actively intervenes in the 
 performance\, forcing the band to end the show unexpectedly. His lecture wi
 ll present audio and visual recordings of disrupted performances by bands s
 uch as Suicide\, Black Sabbath\, Cabaret Voltaire\, Morrissey\, Public Imag
 e Ltd.\, and Guns 'N' Roses. Each recording is marked by the convergence of
  four things: a concert of some kind\, with a large audience\; a part of th
 at audience who\, for one reason or another\, stops that show by various me
 ans\; the crucial presence of a recording device of some kind\; the exchang
 e of that recording\, either as a bootleg or as an official release. Myers 
 will elucidate how these recordings—strange\, funny\, boring and scary in t
 urns—allow us to perceive the intensities and instabilities at the heart of
  the rock concert and\, perhaps\, in spectacular entertainment in general. 
 In addition\, Myers will produce a 'zine gathering stills\, transcripts\, a
 nd photo-documentation of various riot shows.</p><p>Assistant Professor of 
 Visual Studies and Curatorial Practice at the California College of the Art
 s\, Julian Myers is the author of numerous articles\, including The Future 
 as Fetish and If it need be termed surrender\, then let it be so\, appearin
 g in publications such as Documents\, October\, Afterall\, and frieze. His 
 published works include Ellsworth Kelly in San Francisco (2002)\, Sightline
 s (2005)\, Super-Pride and Super Prejudice (2005) and Zoe Crosher: Out the 
 Window (2006). His research is concentrated on earthworks and American spat
 ial politics\, the social and political dynamics of consumer society\, and 
 socio-historical frameworks for contemporary art. He has held teaching posi
 tions at the University of California\, Davis\, San Francisco Art Institute
 \, and at University of California\, Santa Cruz. He received his PhD in Art
  History from the University of California\, Berkeley\, in 2006.</p><p>For

 . John O’Brian</strong>\, Professor of Art History\, University of British 
 Columbia<br /><strong>Dr. Ron Burnett</strong>\, President\, Emily Carr Uni
 versity<br /><strong>Dr. Sharla Sava</strong>\, Writer and Educator\, Capil
 ano University</p><p>The Agency of Images gathers together historians of ph
 otography and theorists of the Image to discuss how new technologies of pic
 ture taking and distribution are changing our understanding of photography 
 today. The panel will consider how images have been freed from certain cons
 traints related to the analogue era of photography in ways that open up new
  possibilities of understanding the image. In the digital era of photograph
 y the intervention into and alteration of the photograph has increased expo
 nentially\, archives of imagery have expanded at a rapid pace\, and the exc
 hange of photographic images have followed new economies of exchange. The p
 anel will consider the implications of these changes on the future of fine 
 art and visual culture. Presentations will begin with a review of vernacula
 r and high art photography from the Cold War that pictured the future throu
 gh images of nuclear collapse\; the discussion will then shift to consider 
 some the differences between analogue and digital images in relation to the
  philosophy of images more broadly\; the final presentation will consider n
 ew directions in self-portraiture and its relation to temporality and durat
 ion on the web.</p><p>The Agency of Images is organized in conjunction with
  Glocal – a contributive digital art and photography project currently in r
 esidence at the Surrey Art Gallery’s TechLab. Over the past 15 months\, art
 ists based at the Surrey Art Gallery have collected upwards of 50\,000 digi
 tal images from contributors around the world.</p><p><strong>Guest Speakers

  Art and Design is a film and video maker\, photographer\, web designer and
  writer. He has published three books\, most  recently\, How Images Think (

 esented in conjunction with the exhibition phot(o)bjects at Presentation Ho
 use Gallery (April 10 to June 7\, 2009).</p><p>Beyond a carrier of an unint
 errupted image\, what else can a photograph be? This question is at the cen
 tre of an exhibition curated for Presentation House Gallery by New York-bas
 ed independent critic and curator Bob Nickas. phot(o)bjects explores the mu
 ltifaceted ways artists have and continue to consider the three dimensional
  possibilities of the photographic medium. Through a broad selection of wor
 ks dating from the early 1970s\, Nickas raises provocative questions about 
 the shifting nature of photography. The panel discussion will bring togethe
 r three of the exhibiting artists with the show’s curator.</p><p>Based in T

 y Marian Goodman Gallery (New York)\, and a collaboration with Collier Scho
 rr for In Numbers: Serial Artist Editions\, 1955 – 2008 (PPP Editions\, Aut
 um 2009).</p><p><strong>Jennifer Bolande</strong> is a professor of new gen
 res in the Department of Art at The University of California at Los Angeles

 This event is part of BC Scene / <a href="http://www.bcscene.ca/">www.bcsce
 ne.ca</a></p><p>Marina Roy and Abbas Akhavan will make a residency and an e
 xhibition at Daïmõn and AXENÉO7 and will present their individual and colla
 borative works.The residency of Marina Roy will be occupied with researchin
 g and creating new video and sound work on human-animal distinction. For Ab
 bas Akhavan the residency will be spent researching\, making\, and installi
 ng a series of work that deal with property and domesticity.  The collabora
 tive show is still in the making - the work will most likely be an installa
 tion contingent on the site and will deal with our shared interest and rese
 arch into domesticity and nature.</p><p><strong>MARINA ROY<br /></strong>Mu
 ch of the current work of Marina Roy has reflected on human-animal distinct
 ions as it relates to art and psychoanalysis. Human “progress\,” culminatin
 g at the mid-19th century (up to the present)\, has meant that the animal b
 ecomes progressively “spectral\,” to the point of extinction\, the post-ani
 mal condition. How have we distinguished ourselves from the animal world si
 nce we crossed the great divide during the Paleolithic era\, and why has it
  resulted in conquest\, destruction\, and separation from “nature” rather t
 han adapting “better” ways of living within it? Through art and technology\
 , humans have perpetuated themselves into an “immortal” sphere via mimesis\
 , representation\, and mechanical/digital reproduction. In our establishmen
 t of a system of taboos and transgressions (laws regulating violence and se
 xuality)\, rationalizing our drives and repressing libido\, creating simula
 cral worlds in the realm of the phantasmatic or otherwise\, humans have som
 ehow convinced themselves of the necessity to dominate all spheres of life\
 , and in so doing\, conquer death.</p><p>Marina Roy is a Vancouver based ar
 tist working across a variety of media\, including drawing\, painting\, scu
 lpture\, animation\, video-performance and writing. Roy has exhibited work 
 across Canada\, as well as in Europe and the U.S. She is assistant professo
 r of visual arts at the Department of Art History\, Visual Art\, and Theory
 \, UBC since 2002. The ideas investigated in her artwork and writing stem f
 rom her ongoing research in such areas as psychoanalysis\, gender\, animal 
 studies\, and biopolitics. In 2001 she published the book sign after the x 
 ______ \, published by Arsenal Pulp Press and Artspeak.</p><p><strong>ABBAS
  AKHAVAN</strong><br />During the past few years the majority of the work a
 nd research of Abbas Akhavan has been dealing with the domestic sphere and 
 how it can act as a microcosm of the greater society and/or nation. He is i
 nterested in how the family\, especially the war stricken ones\, can learn 
 to re-enact the violence and traumas of nationalism and war within the wall
 s of the house. This re-enactment of abuse inverts the house or ‘hos’\, whi
 ch is the root for host\, hostel\, hospital and hospitable into a house or 
 ‘hos’ that is closer to hostile\, hostility\, and hostage (1)  – a systemic
  violence that is inherited from the nation state and practiced within the 
 family lineage - parents against parents\, parents against children\, child
 ren against children\, children against pets...and so on..<br />1-Scarry\,

  Canada for since 1991. He completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts at Concordia
  University and received his Masters of Fine Arts in 2006 at the University

 luding drawing\, sculpture/installation\, video\, performance\, and site-sp
 ecific ephemeral works. His latest visual works are informed by food and co
 nviviality. In recent projects he has taken to feeding his audiences cannib
 al cakes\, insulating gallery walls with cotton candy\, painting with Ketch
 up\, and drinking large quantities of Gin. He currently resides in Vancouve

 f new work by emerging Vancouver artists Anna Marie Repstock and Casey Wei.
  Romantic ideals associated with painting and writing are examined in works
  that highlight the artists' shared interest in the philosophical relations
 hip between painting\, poetry and contemporary art.<em><br /></em></p><p>Co
 llapsing representation and abstraction\, Repstock's paintings draw upon th
 e history of hard edged abstraction and conceptual\, procedural painting. W
 hile the paintings are recognizable as replicas of lined papers\, and are s
 uggestive of reading and writing\, the colored rays that breach them are le
 ss easily readable. As abstract and poetic forms\, these rays address the s
 pace where readability yields to poetic abstraction.</p><p>Wei plays with t
 he visual and aural qualities of typewriting. She investigates the relation
 ship of words with imagery and\, like Repstock\, she privileges careful and
  labor intensive processes. <em>The Past is Better Left a Bone</em>\, <em>b
 logs from 1998-2008</em> is a papier mache sculpture constructed from print

 ances the romanticism of the writing process.</p><p><em>Readings</em> negot

 er Cane</strong>\, MA Candidate\, Critical and Curatorial Studies\, UBC</p>
 <p><em>The Wild so Close</em> presents photographic and video works by Taci
 ta Dean\, Leslie Grant and Al Bersch\, Jason Hendrickson\, David Horvitz\, 
 and Donald Lawrence.</p><p>The sites of leisure culture and recreation - wi
 thin the construct of 'nature' - are worthy of rigorous investigation. This
  exhibition brings together varying photographic and video works that inves
 tigate concepts of natural leisure environments and resources.  In all case
 s\, there is an underlying component of travel - the artist making a journe
 y as part of the work's production\, and of that distant place becoming the
  subject.  These leisure sites are often situated in opposition to other ty
 pes of spaces\; to the spaces of labour\, the spaces of the domestic\; some
  spaces showing the demarcations of gender and class constructions.  In an 
 interlocking manner\, the works contain elements that trouble notions of th
 e 'natural' that make up representations of such sites.  The exhibition rai
 ses important questions surrounding the spaces of recreation and tourism in
  the wake of Vancouver’s Olympic venture.  What is at stake is an opportuni
 ty to reconsider the economies of their use in both real and ideal terms.</

 by the late artist/writer Roy K. Kiyooka.<br />Edited with an afterword by 
 Roy MikiOften zany and wildly humorous\, <em>The Artist & the Moose</em> fe
 atures a narrator who is commissioned by the federal government to come up 
 with a multicultural aesthetics for the 21st century. The answer\, he think
 s\, resides in the big mystery that surrounds artist Tom Thomson.</p><p>Was
  Thomson's sudden death in Algonquin Park\, in that fateful summer of 1917\
 , an accident or was he murdered? To solve this mystery\, the narrator sets
  out from his hometown\, Forget\, Sasatchewan\, to visit the national archi
 ves in Ottawa. As his quest unfolds\, readers meet the usual suspects in th
 e Tom Thomson saga\, including Tom's love interest\, but as well a cast of 
 fabulous non–human characters\, such as the little bird\, Thomson's pipe\, 
 Plot\, Text\, and most prominent of all\, the magical Moose\, named Ol' Twi
 g–Eater.</p><p>While recognizing Thomson's artistic legacy\, Kiyooka's fabl
 e offers a compelling critique of Canadian cultural nationalism and its vio
 lent appropriation of native land and culture.\, a long process of coloniza
 tion that exiled the Moose from the very homely spaces once his own.</p><p>
 Complementing this newly edited work is the serial poem\, "letters purporti
 ng to be abt tom thomson\," first published in Artscanada in 1972. These po
 ems capture Kiyooka's initial thoughts on Tom Thomson and the Group of Seve
 n\, and set the stage for his writing on Tom Thomson in the years ahead.</p

 itor who has published widely on Canadian literature and culture. He is the

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Jade Yumang\, UBC Alumnus (BFA Honours\, 
 2008)</h4><p><strong>Opening Reception</strong>\, Friday <strong>May 8</str
 ong>\, 7-9pm<br />May 5 - June 14\, 2009<br />Hours: Tue-Fri\, 10am-5pm\; S
 at-Sun 11am-5pm</p><p><em>Hard Candy</em> is an exhibition of the newest wo
 rks by emerging artist Jade Yumang.  Comprised of nine portraits\, <em>Hard
  Candy</em> is a series of work that articulate a carnality that is at once
  bawdy and delicately sensual.  Though explicit at first glance\, <em>Hard 
 Candy</em> delves beyond a young\, raw homoeroticism and presents images th
 at speak to the essence of physicality and questions stereotypical power dy
 namics and gender roles.<br />Each work in the series is a woodcut printed 
 with black ink onto a delicately stretched surface of translucent silk fabr
 ic.  Behind the printed surface sits affixed to the wall a jawbreaker that 
 has been licked and sculpted with tender consideration.  The printed image 
 is intrinsically pornographic and lends itself to a discourse of power dyna
 mics and sexual objectification and exploitation.  The young men in each po
 rtrait are in a position associated with sexual “servicing”\, a submissive\
 , perhaps even female\, role.  It would be interpreted that this anonymous 
 “receiver” is in the power position\, masculine in his presentation and dom
 inating the subject in a one-sided sexual encounter.  It too could be inter
 preted as the artist’s own self-proclaimed position of power over the viewe
 r and subject\, dominating the exhibition space for his own gratification.<
 /p><p>Yumang confronts this typical power association\, that the sexual pos
 itioning of the portrait’s subjects equals exploitation and non-gratificati
 on\, by introducing into the image an iconic piece of candy.  By introducin
 g the jawbreaker\, Yumang challenges the initial interpretation of objectif
 ication and relieves the subject from his powerless position.  The jawbreak
 er\, which has physically been sculpted by the artist’s own mouth to reveal
  its layers\, connotes an allured persistence rewarded by great satisfactio
 n.  The experience of a jawbreaker\, with its foreboding name and appearanc
 e\, is one of visceral sentimentality for many who can recall the commitmen
 t needed to conquer the candy\, and the great reward that comes from each l
 ayer.  This informs the explicit image and transforms it to a portrait of e
 nduring sensuality and pleasure for the subject\, stripping the brash initi
 al interpretation of exploitation\, revealing a sweet\, seductive exchange 
 and a more complex and considerate relationship.  Having physically manipul
 ated the candy himself\, Yumang has also placed himself in the role with th
 e portrayed subject\, further hinting to the fact that he is the anonymous 
 figure in the portrait while at the same time extinguishing his power in th
 e exchange and revealing the reciprocation of what would stereotypically be
  interpreted as an unbalanced situation of power.</p><p><em>Hard Candy</em>
  is a young artist’s investigation into his identity while presenting a bod
 y of work that challenges the viewer’s interpretation of power dynamics and
  stereotypes of traditional roles in sexual relationships.</p><p>Image: <em

  Clean Alterations. Existing in close proximity but possessing radically di
 fferent objectives\, these pairs normally relate only by way of their share
 d location. Yet\, in an upcoming exhibition of work by Ron Tran\, these oth
 erwise disparate events and places come together through unlikely collabora
 tion.</p><p>Much like Tran’s recent photo-montage projects which propose ne
 w compositions between two unknown and unrelated intimate family portraits\
 , in this exhibition Tran joins uncommon objects from unrelated stores exis
 ting side-by-side to create playful and humorous collage objects. A porcela
 in knickknack meets a broom\, a Chinese/English Bruce Springsteen songbook 
 meets a butterfly floating in a Plexiglas box and a picture frame becomes a
  dolly with wheels. In these unusual assemblages Tran explores the possibil
 ities for new narratives based on difference.</p><p>Provoking uncanny excha
 nges through the confluence of performance and sculpture\, Tran’s relationa
 l practice gently inserts itself into everyday life by testing the edges of
  social anxiety and cultural norms using absurdity and humour. In past work
 s Tran has experimented with the boundaries of trust by offering to walk st
 rangers home at night and by attempting to have dinner with strangers throu
 gh mirrored movements across the room in fast-food restaurants. More recent
 ly\, in an exhibition at the Western Front\, Tran installed the front door 
 of his apartment in the gallery\, leaving the entrance to his home wide ope
 n to chance.</p><p>In addition to new sculptural works\, this exhibition wi
 ll present Tran’s 2004 video\, The Peckers\, an improvised noise-collage in
 tegrating the artist’s observations of daily activities on Granville Island
 \, busking and feeding birds\, and featuring a flock of hungry pigeons as t
 he main performers.</p><p><strong><em>Even Though We Are Not Together</em><
 /strong> will aptly be exhibited at <em>Bestway</em> studios\, also a hybri
 d. Established in 2008 in Chinatown's historic Chinese Times Building\, <em
 >Bestway</em> is a private working artists’ space that also periodically ho

 xplores through five distinct video works our physical and social relations
 hip to a world of rapidly moving images\, goods\, and bodies. Through inter
 views\, performances\, and video collages\, the artists in this exhibition 
 provide personal and intimate articulations of movement pointing to larger 
 global politics of mobility that are informed by historical\, political and
  economic factors. The exhibition explores various psychic states of being 
 ungrounded and the featured works reference timely issues\, such as the Isr
 aeli/Palestinian conflict\, economic exploitation and development in Africa
 \, and Canada’s immigration policy.</p><p>In today’s climate marked by stat
 e-encouraged fear of transient populations\, the personal accounts the arti
 sts provide bring to the surface individual experiences that rarely emerge 
 in discussions of global politics\, especially in relation to issues of mob
 ility. The featured works demonstrate how the movement of people reaches th
 rough space and time\, and alters the geography of human relations.</p><p>T
 his exhibition is the Vancouver premier of Jin-me Yoon’s 2003 video install

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Gwenessa Lam (BFA 2001)</h4><p>In the ser
 ies <em>Windows</em>\, Gwenessa Lam explores the notion of absence through 
 paintings of vacant windows and walls. The windowed wall is a liminal space
  between the interior and exterior. It suggests a potential to see\, to vis
 ualize the other side without physically entering into the space beyond the
  shutters or glass pane. This tension – between vision and knowledge\, disc
 losure and concealment – is central to the work. Their opacity inverts the 
 transparent\, revelatory function of windows\, operating more as empty scre
 ens and portals\, a means of surveillance or escape. The setting of the int
 erior situates notions of alienation and estrangement within the familiar a
 nd banal. Representations of the void\, in the guise of the blank window or
  the shadowed wall\, play upon the viewer’s desire to fill the void\, whils
 t never completely satisfying it.</p><p><em>Windows </em>is exhibiting June
  12 through July 25 with an opening reception on Thursday\, June 11\, 7-9 p
 m. Regular gallery hours are 11 am - 4 pm\, Thursday through Saturday\, and

 ems by Yoriko Gillard\, 1 pm to 4:30 pm daily</h4><p><span class="Apple-sty
 le-span">This exhibition reflects the artist's intercultural experiences be
 tween Canada and Japan. <strong>Yoriko Gillard</strong> was born in Japan a
 nd is currently a student taking courses at UBC. This is her first solo sho
 w\, and she sees this experience as the beginnning of a long-lasting artist
 ic trip across the oceans for years to come.</span></p><p><span class="Appl
 e-style-span">"I was extremely shy when I was a child and as a result it wa
 s often uncomfortable for me to speak up in front of people who I was unfam
 iliar with. I found it difficult to articulate myself with words but discov
 ered that I could express my feelings through my paintings and drawings. Ar
 t became an outlet for communicating my thoughts and emotions\, and my artw
 ork itself a reflection of my inner self. My dream was to become a professi
 onal artist however my introversion combined with a complex about my appear
 ance inhibited me from pursuing my passion fully. Even today this complex r
 emains in my mind\, and I still can become very shy when faced with challen
 ges such as speaking English in public.</p><p>I am not shy with people I am
  comfortable with\, and I continuously find myself getting better at acting
  the same way as I would act in Japan while using my first language.</p><p>
 I feel like I am caught in the middle of my life because I wanted to become
  an artist in Japan but instead gave up my dream in exchange for my obligat
 ion (earning money). After I came to Canada to study English I realized jus
 t how important it is for me to become an artist so that I can be more comf
 ortable with who I am. It is ironic because even though my English is not p
 erfect\; I am now more comfortable pursuing my dream in Canada rather than 
 Japan".</span></p><p><a href="http://legacy.ahva.ubc.ca/eventsDetails.cfm?E

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>MFA 2009 Graduate Exhibition</h4><p>Shea 
 Allan-McCachen\, Scott Billings\, Krista Dragomer\, Julio Lopez\, Jen Weih<
 /p><p><strong>Opening Reception</strong>: Thursday\, September 10\, 7 - 10 
 pm<br /><strong>External Critique</strong> by Liz Magor: Saturday September
  12\, 12 to 5 pm</p><p><em>Interrobang</em>. This uncommon typographic liga
 ture superimposes the meaning of a question mark onto an exclamation point 
 and indicates a common connection and bonding between different characters 
 whose meaning depends on their surroundings. <em>Interrobang</em>\, the exh
 ibition\, presents divergent work by five emerging artists who work in the 
 mediums of video\, sound\, sculpture\, drawing\, painting and new media.</p
 ><p><strong>Shea Allan-McCachen</strong>’s drawings\, paintings and collage
 s investigate bodily abstraction\, making reference to the interstice betwe
 en a penetrating gaze and the penetrated body. Incorporating primary source
  material from <em>Hustler</em>magazine\, her fragmented assemblages of gen
 italia\, bodiless apparel and indistinguishable swatches of skin evoke an a
 nxiety about the body while partaking in an aesthetic search for beauty. Th
 e result is a matrix of fleshy exploration in which the traditional concept
  of a figure is absent.</p><p><strong>Scott Billings</strong>’ media works 
 explore the relationship between the body and the cinematic machine. By tak
 ing apart and reconfiguring older obsolete machines\, such as turning theat
 rical lighting into a projector\, Billings’ creates both moving objects and
  moving images that play with the concepts of mimicry and motility to depic
 t and understand the quality of being animal. Often using his own body and 
 figures of animals\, his work resides somewhere between cinema and automata
 . The modified machine apparatus delivers a moving image to activate the vi
 ewer’s body and prompt a physical interrogation of the exhibition space.</p
 ><p>Sound artist <strong>Krista Dragomer</strong> works collaboratively wit
 h video artist Rashin Fahandej to explore moments that occur between histor
 ical events\, borders\, and identities. Their sound and video works engage 
 the audience in a sensorial experience of “culture” as something that exist
 s within one’s body. The artists’ audiovisual installations combine project
 ion with monitors and multi-channel stereo sound. Their works incorporates 
 ideas about shared literature\, music\, art\, traditions\, dreams and night
 mares—common struggles and stories told by different people in different pl
 aces\, past and present.</p><p>Built around the principles of the Open Sour
 ce movement <strong>Julio Lopez</strong>’ current project <em>HUB</em>\, is
  an experimental web-based initiative focused on collaboration\, the sharin
 g of ideas and knowledge\, and the creative exploration of information tech
 nology. For the duration of the project\, Lopez will operate a computer lab
  that provides a workspace and access to software and technologies free of 
 charge\, and delivers educational programming focused on providing particip
 ants with technical knowledge. A series of talks will highlight the work of
  local Vancouver artists that use a variety of technologies within their ar
 tistic practice. More information and a schedule of events can be found at 
 www.hubcentre.org.</p><p><strong>Jen Weih</strong>’s practice investigates 
 a combination of the rational and the irrational. The work proposes a dialo
 g between construction and collapse\, elegance and horror\, sense and non-s
 ense. Her projects include a range of aesthetics from “bad” fonts to geomet
 ric balance and can include found\, manufactured\, or crafted materials. Wo
 rk for this show will include a collection of 8 ½ x 11 inch\, 20 lb. bond\,
  paper sculptures produced through a combination of conscious decision maki
 ng and unconscious and chance-based processes.</p><p>The department of Art 
 History\, Visual Art\, and Theory will be hosting an afternoon event where 
 each graduating student will speak about her or his work\, followed by a di
 scussion led by Liz Magor.</p><p>The public is invited to participate in th
 e critique of and conversation about the MFA students’ presentation and wor
 k.</p><p>—</p><p>For further information please contact: Naomi Sawada at na

 ><strong>Friday September 11 - October 3\, 2009</strong></p><p>Hours: Wedne
 sday - Saturday noon to 4pm<br /><strong>Opening</strong>: Friday Sept. 11\
 , 2009\, 4 - 7pm</p><p>The recent turn toward visual culture\, materiality\
 , and the "thing" in the humanities is central to issues around artistic pr
 axis and reception. It has become all the more urgent in a world where new 
 and obsolete products stare back at us from a commoditized landscape. How a
 re these issues reflected in contemporary artworks\, and how might these wo
 rks be resisting this logic\, shedding light on new kinds of relations with
  the material world?</p><p>As practicing artists and visual arts instructor
 s\, we often find ourselves discussing the intersection between our individ
 ual art practice and our social responsibility as educators. We focus on ou
 r role as agents. The focus of this exhibition deals with what we might not
  always ask ourselves: the artwork’s agency. Turning our focus toward the n
 ature of the material artwork sparks a number of illuminating questions:</p
 ><p>What is an art image\, object\, or event today?<br />What do they stem 
 from\, and what are they responding to?<br />What is important about materi
 ality\, and how does it matter?<br />If artworks can be understood as havin
 g an agency beyond our role as authors and viewers\, what does the image\, 
 object\, or event demand of us?<br />What is the nature of this demand?<br 
 />What responsibility do we have toward them\, and why does this matter?</p

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>From 11 September - 11 October 2009<br />O
 PENING FRIDAY 11th September\, 5pm - 8pm</p><p><strong>Denise Hawrysio</str
 ong></p><p><em>Etching Plate as Shield</em></p><p>Denise Hawrysio work purs
 ues the conceptual possibilities of printmaking\, especially in relation to
  her notion of site-specificity. Hawrysio produces her prints by employing 
 external agents: human and physical. The prints are a collaboration between
  the artist and the world as she finds it\; the actions and motions of Hawr
 ysio’s surroundings leave their mark on her art\, with the result that each
  print is a still\, a frozen interface between the materials of art and the
  physicality of the world.</p><p>At Danske Grafikeres Hus she will be showi
 ng her most recent work\; Etching Plate as Shield based on a series of inci
 dents in London where social problems have resulted in fatal injuries:  the
  etching plate is attached to the front of a jacket while she reenact the a
 ctions that led to these accidents. The final work is diptych consisting of
  a photograph of the reenactment and the etching itself\, with the marks th
 at have occurred during the process and an accompanying text that describes
  the incident.</p><p>Denise Hawrysio was born in Toronto and currently live
 s in London\, UK.  She received her BFA from Queen’s University\, Canada\, 
 and her MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute.  She works in a variety o
 f media including site-specific installation and prints and has exhibited h
 er work throughout Europe\, the United States and Canada. In 2006 she curat
 ed and participated in the group exhibition 15/1 (3) at Overgaden Institute
  for Samtidskunst and in 2004 had a solo exhibition at RACA in Copenhagen.<
 /p><p>She is currently teaching and working in Vancouver at University of B
 ritish Columbia.</p><p>____________________</p><p>Al Masson</p><p><em>Into 
 Intimacy</em></p><p>Installation with drawing/print collages and a slide sh
 ow animation</p><p>Under the form of an Installation\, Al Masson will prese
 nt some ink drawing collages with old found schoolbook print cuttings.<br /
 >In connection will be shown a slide show drawing animation.</p><p>Each tim
 e when visiting the exhibitions in the small room upstairs at<br />"Danske 
 Grafikeres Hus"\, Al Masson has had the feeling to be in a time<br />vacuum
 . Like finding oneself in a small part of a brain where an<br />intimate me
 mory would be hidden. The space has an intimacy of a child room. With this 
 kind of intimacy level in mind Al Masson wish to<br />develop a close dialo
 gue between the works and the audience through the surrounding ambiance. Th
 e installation process as in other Al Masson's works\, propose a full "phys
 ical" experience to the "public-traveller" when entering the installation\,
  a sort of travel in another space.</p><p>The ink drawings and prints colla
 ges exhibited are through their<br />associations showing weird "fictional 
 intimate" images. Is it Al Masson<br />intimacy that is proposed there? Or 
 else are they just imaginative<br />association of ideas bursting up betwee
 n the two mediums a kind of jeu d'images instead of jeu de mots. Still the 
 audience should discover<br />under the diverse "layers" a mutual "world" t
 hat they could associate<br />themselves with. These disturbing and also fu
 nny images in this<br />destabilizing space should remind a "memory" like h
 aving opened by<br />accident a forbidden room. The slide show animation wi
 th music<br />presented on a small screen will be not only a way to make pe
 ople stay longer in the space but an invitation into a wandering story that
  never ends and just asks a question.</p><p>Al Masson\, born in Marseille F
 rance\, lives in Denmark since 1996 after many years in New York. He has st
 udied at the Ecole Des Beaux Arts Brussels and Art Student League\, New Yor
 k.<br /> </p><p> <br /><a href="http://www.danskegrafikere.dk/" target="bla

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Curated by Sadira Rodrigues</p><p>What are
  the possibilities of talking about race today? It is critical that we cont
 inue to challenge the conditions of racism\, marginality\, exclusion\, and 
 xenophobia. But how does one approach talking about a subject whose archaeo
 logies of knowledge have been laden with histories of conflict and contesta
 tion? And how does one do this with a commitment to generosity\, truthfulne
 ss\, and reconciliation?</p><p>Over the last year\, there has been an escal
 ating presence of race in every aspect of social\, political\, and economic
  life. Barrack Obama’s “A More Perfect Union” speech in Philadelphia became
  the most popular video in the world\, drawing 1.2 million views in the fir
 st 24 hours after it aired. Described by some writers as the most important
  speech on race given by any American politician\, it pointed to the fact t
 hat racial discord in the US\, although entrenched\, distracting\, and emot
 ional\, was not necessarily intractable. It is this disavowal of intractabi
 lity that forms the core of Speaking Truth to Reconciliation. Is it possibl
 e to engage with a fraught subject\, but with a commitment to moving beyond
  questions of accountability or accusation\, towards a conversation that bo
 th acknowledges the conditions of exclusion\, while seeking shared ground?<
 /p><p>Through an exhibition and forum <em>Speaking Truth to Reconciliation<
 /em> brings together artists\, writers\, and curators to consider the possi
 bilities of discussing this contested subject and “speaking out.”</p><p>The
  artists will engage with Artspeak as a site of dialogue and discussion tha
 t takes the principle of “truth telling” as a framing device\, while consid
 ering these concepts poetically\, pedagogically\, and declaratively.<br /><

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>18 September - 1 November\, 2009</p><p>Ope
 ning: Thursday 17 September\, 7–9 pm</p><p>Colleen Brown\,<strong> Paul Kaj
 ander</strong> (MFA '07)\, and Kara Uzelman</p><p>This exhibition features 
 the work of Colleen Brown\, <strong>Paul Kajander</strong> and Kara Uzelman
  in a variety of media: video\, photography\, sculpture\, found materials\,
  and text. Their treatment of objects and thematics will be loosely oriente
 d around the trajectory that the title implies: a treatment of objects and 
 cultural product that is both vacuum-like and explosive.The artists in this
  exhibition are process-oriented\, collecting anything and everything into 
 their orbit\, simultaneously voiding inherited meaning and creating new mea
 nings through recontextualization. The work in the exhibition will be treat
 ed as experiments in form\, concept and embodiment.</p><p>Berlin-based arti
 st Kara Uzelman\, whose work has recently drawn from early 20th century sci
 -fi narratives\, has created a new suite of drawings that reference scripts
  from 60 science fiction radio plays. Through Uzelman's re-telling\, the wo
 rk uncovers\, through physical and textual bricolage\, a wholly new narrati
 ve. Colleen Brown's work takes common objects and creates formally complex 
 new sculptures that are both familiar and strange in their use of assemblag
 e\, colour and texture. Brown's sculpture is both airy and dense\, a conflu
 ence of forms whose relationship to one another seems nearly gravitational 
 in itself: materials orbit one another\, and\, as they must\, collide. Paul
  Kajander's new video installation gathers a cluster of universes around a 
 single self\, juxtaposing sci-fi-like inspired interiors with 'pre-literate
 ' wilderness.  His work highlights a certain cultural absurdity-the weirdne
 ss of expressing oneself in a world of signs\, the collective ridiculousnes
 s of our cultural products\, an underlying sense of a world in flux\, the a
 nxious individual\, and the importance of human connection amidst it all.</

 tallment of this project is one site that participates in this network of g
 atherings in order to provoke a re writing or re-investigation of the ways 
 in which the history of postwar western art has traditionally been approach
 ed. The project will direct a radiographic analysis of a brief historical m
 oment in order to make sense of the complex relationships and intersections
  in formation and flux during the period. In this way\, we seek to cut a mi
 cro image of the times: to provide an incisive analysis of a moment with wi
 de ranging implications pertaining to important issues shared by many artis
 tic scenes that were nevertheless resolved differently.</p><p>In keeping wi
 th these interests\, the organizers solicit papers that address the reposit
 ioning\, repackaging\, and reenactment in theory and in practice of art pro
 duction in that period. Some of the art historical moments that are open to
  investigation include\, but are not limited to:</p><p>- the development of
  new forms of abstraction in Spain\, Italy and Latin America<br />- the pol
 itically charged strategies of Situationism in Paris<br />- the innovations
  and subversions of New Wave cinema<br />- emergent strategies of performan
 ce in art production<br />- the end of the Beatnik experiment<br />- the de
 mise of Abstract Expressionism</p><p>DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS is October 1

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Thesis Title: Aestheticizing Mobil
 ities: Art Deco and the Fashioning of Interwar Public Cultures</strong></p>
 <p>Art Deco\, as a mode of design\, was a response to the conditions of pos
 t-World War I modernity\, including the advent of “mass” culture\, a desire
  for a return to order\, and an intense interest in mobility—physical/geogr
 aphical\, conceptual\, temporal\, and social.  This thesis argues that mobi
 lity lies at the heart of Art Deco as it fashioned public cultural spaces t
 hroughout the globe in the interwar years.  Both the iconography and genera
 l formal qualities (whether zig-zag forms popular in the 1920s or streamlin
 ing of the 1930s) evinced the idea of movement\, which suited the optimism 
 of the 1920s as well as a desire for control in the period of socio-politic
 al unrest caused by the Depression.</p><p>This thesis explores some of the 
 socio-political ramifications of the style as it entered the patterns and s
 paces of everyday life (i.e.\, lifestyle).  The imaging of mobility so appa
 rent on the surfaces of Art Deco points to the larger\, interpenetrating sy
 stems of mobility that underpin the fabrication of modern public cultures. 
  These “mobilities” included migration\, transportation\, commodity exchang
 e\, capital\, and communication (notably print\, film\, and radio\, but als
 o fashion\, design\, and architecture).  While the Deco appeared “new” in a
  manner consonant with the sense of immediacy (even fashionability) brought
  about by these mobilities\, and optimistically gestured to a new world in 
 the future-present\, the style ultimately reinscribed the pre-existing soci
 al order.  It was a cosmopolitan style: traditional yet modern\, “worldly” 
 in appearance yet local.</p><p>This thesis travels through a number of diff
 erent spaces\, envisioning Art Deco as a kind of crossroads—a style of flow
  and intermixture yet stability.  While celebrating mobility\, the Deco oft
 en masked other forms of (im)mobility.  I examine these concepts in relatio
 n to the Marine Building in Vancouver\, Bullock’s Wilshire department store
  in Los Angeles\, the Regal and Eros cinemas in Bombay (Mumbai)\, and the d
 esign of radio cabinets in Canada.  In so doing\, the thesis suggests the r
 each of the Deco into everyday life and across the globe\, and offers a new
  way to approach a style that is most often associated with the frivolous b
 y emphasizing its socio-political implications.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>The gallery located in Room 112\, Koerner 
 Library presents Satyagraha (October 15th – 31st\, 2009)\, the first Vancou
 ver exhibition of Chinese artist Yang Shu. The word <strong>Satyagraha</str
 ong> is a synthesis of the Sanskrit words Satya (truth) and Agraha (holding
  firmly to). It is a philosophy and practice of nonviolent resistance devel
 oped by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. For Gandhi\, these two words linked tog
 ether serve as a synonym for force\, a united front representing truth and 
 love. With that said\, this exhibition presents Shu’s recent series of pain
 ting and paper collage works. These new works exude a forcefully raw and sp
 ontaneous visual power. His canvasses are crowded with superimposed scrawli
 ng\, multiple layers of colour\, abstract figures\, and Chinese script. His
  impulsive brushstrokes and broken images walk a line between freedom and r
 estraint. Yang Shu’s new works are explosive and provocative yet offer a su
 btle simplicity.</p><p>Since the early 1980s Shu has developed an extensive
  painting and installation based practice\, showing extensively throughout 
 China\, and internationally (Shanghai\, Beijing\, Hong Kong\, Amsterdam\, N
 ew York\, Sydney)\, including the iconic China/Avant-Garde Art exhibition a
 t the National Art Museum of China in 1989. In excess of his individual art
 istic success\, Shu is also a professor at the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute 
 and coordinates an independent artist-run space called Organhaus\, both loc
 ated in Huang Jiaoping.</p><p>Join us Thursday October 15th\, 2009 from 4 –
  7pm for the opening reception of <strong>Satyagraha</strong>\, the artist

 ? What are the moral\, the ethical\, and the spiritual conditions which ent
 itle someone to present himself as\, and to be considered as\, a truth-tell
 er? About what topics is it important to tell the truth? … What are the con
 sequences of telling the truth? … And finally: what is the relation between

 forum\, local and international speakers will consider the possibilities of
  “speaking out” in the context of cultural production. Speaking out describ
 es adopting a position which is perceived to be oppositional to mainstream 
 cultural production and which chooses to reveal the limitations or structur
 es in the operation of power. Speaking out also implies a consequence to th
 e act of intervening or critiquing these institutions. The act of speaking 
 out is not only intellectual\, but extends to the value of the speaker as a
  social individual\, his or her place in society\, the consequences on thei
 r cultural capital\, and the ramifications of talking about things most peo
 ple do not want to.</p><p>FRIDAY OCTOBER 23<br />6:30PM / Sadira Rodrigues<

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p> </p><p>A curator and writer\, Carolyn Chr
 istov-Bakargiev (b. Ridgewood\, NJ\, 1957) is the Artistic Director of <em>
 documenta (13)</em>\, 2012. She has been Chief Curator at Castello di Rivol
 i Museo d’Arte Contemporanea since 2002\, and is Interim Director for 2009.
  The author of publications including <em>Arte Povera</em> (London: Phaidon
  Press\, 1999)\, she was Senior Curator at P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center / 
 a MoMA affiliate\, New York\, from 1999 to 2001.</p><p>This talk will focus
  on the nature and meaning of documenta\, its history and future. In the ea
 rly 1950s\, documenta was conceived as a direct response to the Third Reich
 ’s policies towards ‘degenerate art’\; at the time\, in Germany\, only an a
 rt which celebrated the regime was allowed\, while all avant-gardes were ba
 nned. Over the years\, it came to signify\, in the context of Western Europ
 e\, a space in which full freedom of expression could be achieved. More rec
 ently\, it has been a platform for a critique of Euro-Centrism. In contrast
  to other periodic international exhibitions that have emerged from the wor
 ld fair models of the 19th century\, documenta is therefore characterized b
 y a strong theoretical grounding and a sense of the urgency of art in socie
 ty.</p><p><strong><em>documenta (13)</em></strong> is being developed from 
 an archeological perspective\, according to which every cultural project th
 at moves forward must be grounded in a backward gaze\, in an ecological rel
 ationship to the past. How was the present imagined in the second half of t
 he 20th century and what was considered urgent at each successive edition o
 f the exhibition?</p><p>The Curatorial Lecture Series is organized by the M
 orris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery in collaboration with the Department of 
 Art History\, Visual Art and Theory\, the Museum of Anthropology\, the Depa
 rtment of Anthropology\, with the support of the Audain Endowment for Curat
 orial Studies and the Faculty of Arts at The University of British Columbia

 red\, realistic figures with areas of intense colour and bold shapes. These
  works touch on the concept of false nostalgia\, combining visual elements 
 from popular culture with Hung’s exposure to a westernized representation o
 f love and family.</p><p>Her work indicates a fascination with these histor
 ical images\, and the contrasting flat graphic patterns refer to the popula
 r graphic designs of previous decades. But as a Chinese-Canadian growing up
  in the 1980s\, this is not really her past\, but a constructed past sold t
 o her by the mass media. This series of portraits evokes false memories of 
 romanticized love as seen through modern eyes.</p><p>The body of work exami
 nes representations of love through a visual narrative\, from the first kis
 s to parenthood and family. The paintings in this exhibition weave together
  the past and the present\, culminating with the final piece\, a self-portr
 ait of the artist in her studio\, which combines Roselina’s larger work wit
 h her continued interest in miniature portraiture.</p><p>Roselina Hung is a
  graduate of the University of British Columbia and Central Saint Martin’s

 <p>Despite Foucault’s famous assertion\, it is becoming increasingly clear 
 that in contemporary society\, it is impossible to separate the notion of s
 urveillance from that of spectacle. Technological advances have allowed the
  surveillance of our cities to become all but invisible\, yet at the same t
 ime policing and security have become deliberately spectacular. Particularl
 y\, the upcoming securitization of Vancouver for the 2010 Olympics will for
 ge a link between spectacle and surveillance on an unprecedented scale.</p>
 <p>Surveilling Public Space looks to comment on the increasing normalizatio
 n of surveillance cameras in contemporary society. Surveillance cameras are
  not merely functional but are also full of social meaning. The show will p
 ortray a variety of perspectives on the act of video surveillance in public
  space and its social\, political\, and economic implications. This exhibit
 ion posits to create a visceral or experiential understanding of the meanin
 g of video surveillance in our society.</p><p>Artists:</p><p><strong>Kately

 en Belkin Art Gallery and Centre A present <em>Fear in the Transnational Co
 mmunity: A Response by Artists and Curators</em> a talk by Shaheen Merali a
 s part of the Curatorial Lecture Series.</p><p>Shaheen Merali is a curator 
 and writer based in Berlin and London. Between 2003 and 2008 he was the Hea
 d of Department for Exhibitions\, Film and New Media at the Haus der Kultur
 en der Welt in Berlin\; in 2008\, he was the Artistic Director of the Bodhi
  Galleries in New York\, Mumbai\, Berlin and Singapore\; and in 2006\, he w
 as the Co-curator of the 2006 6th Gwangju Biennale of Korea. His recent cur
 atorial project consisted of a large-scale historical show\, <em>The Untold
  (the rise of) Schisms\,</em> held at Alcala 31 in Madrid.</p><p><em>Fear i
 n the Transnational Community: A Response by Artists and Curators</em> will
  examine issues and commentators who use language specific to the arts to a
 ddress a major shift in perspectives taking place in the new millennium. Th
 is shift is marked by a desire to engage with the notion of reality\, which
  has become complex and entangled\, as have all other global concepts and b
 eliefs.</p><p>The rubric “fine art” no longer refers primarily to a series 
 of catalogued works or objects but also to a set of practices. Despite this
 \, the language of art practice continues to express specific concepts and 
 beliefs\, which are entangled within a system where potential spectators ar
 e not necessarily included. In the new century\, artists and curators are c
 harting the efficacy of adopted methods of curation in the condensed visual
 ity of the globe. In trying to understand these concerns\, questions are ra
 ised about diminishing resources\, the role of diplomacy\, and the move awa
 y from the notion of an abundant Earth and toward the notion of a world in 
 constant provocation.</p><p>The talk will be concluded by an examination of
  Merali’s recent exhibition at the Kunsthalle Brot\, Vienna\, <em>The Promi
 se of Loss\, An Index of Contemporary Iran.<br /></em><br />The Curatorial 
 Lecture Series presents lectures on contemporary curatorial practice. It is
  organized by the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery in collaboration with
  the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory\, the Museum of Anth
 ropology\, and the Department of Anthropology\, with the support of the Aud
 ain Endowment for Curatorial Studies\; and the Faculty of Arts at The Unive
 rsity of British Columbia. This lecture is organized in collaboration with 
 Centre A: Vancouver International Centre for Contemporary Asian Art.</p>

 art of the Curatorial Lecture Series.</p><p>This talk\, <em>The Grammar of 
 the Court</em> will examine ‘performance’ in the court of law as a particul

  are drawn up entirely differently from any other ‘stage’ or scripted space
 . This talk will make use of Franke’s recent work and bring it into constel
 lation with the installation World Rehearsal Court\, an exhibition of work 
 by Judy Radul at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery. Among other influ
 ences\, it will refer to Bruno Latour’s ethnography of ‘associations’ and ‘
 enunciation regimes’.</p><p>Anselm Franke is a curator and writer. He is di
 rector of Extra City – Kunsthal Antwerpen in Belgium. He has been co-curato
 r of Manifesta 7 in Italy\, 2008. Previously\, Franke acted as curator of K

 , Vancouver</p><p>The gallery located in room 112\, Koerner Library present
 s the work of students from VISA 480 in a two-part exhibition. The class\, 
 split in two\, proposes thematics to each other and formulates two group ex
 hibitions. Running from Tuesday November 24 – Saturday November 28\, Intern
 et Friends Don't Count is the first group's response to the challenge. The 
 mission is to create works of art that address the ephemeral nature of cont
 emporary technology. With much of our social interaction happening on-line\
 , what happens to our sense of immanent space? What role do artworks have i
 n a world where information can be deleted with the click of a mouse?</p><p
 >In projects that span a variety of media\, 13 artists come together to ref
 lect on this ongoing phenomenon. Central are ideas that focus on communicat
 ion\, labour\, subjectivity\, and privacy. The diversity of approaches is i
 ndicative of the many facets of life that are affected by technology. This 
 exhibition hopes to draw connections between those facets.</p><p>Below are 
 a few statements by the artists in their attempts to circumscribe the topic
  in question:</p><p>“In the digital world there exists data that is real ye
 t intangible\, hovering over these boundaries the information itself is eph
 emeral and should not truly exist in material form. However\, even if delet
 ed\, this information will have left inerasable traces of its existence in 
 our world. “</p><p>“The modification of physical interaction has changed th
 rough the variable existence and experience of materials within a growing o
 bjectless\, immaterial world.”</p><p>“The gaze permeates and transcends man
 y levels of reality. Excess of physical materiality has brought us to exces
 s of ephemeral materiality. To be both viewer and viewed\, the inanimate ta
 kes on sight.  The fluctuation between real and not real\, reality and illu
 sion\, social coherence and paranoia.”</p><p>“We lose the tangibility in th
 is intimate and personal moment of writing our thoughts down with a pen and
  paper when the instantaneity of the virtual world has made itself more app
 ealing...the process of returning to basics and materiality...perhaps from 
 an initially functional act into one that becomes absurd and obsessive\, in
  which case\, how would it then differ from our obsession with the virtual 
 world?”</p><p>“People of all ages\, genders and nationalities have started 
 following the trend of documenting their personal life in a public space. T
 he invasion of privacy has been made easy...or\, has the idea of privacy be
 en lost in the online world? Voyeurism becomes an ambiguous activity.”</p><
 p>“Temporality and space are significant components in short message servic
 es\; the time it takes for a message to send\, and the virtual space that s
 eparates the two communicating individuals.”</p><p>“Exposure\, labour\, and
  the boundaries where the incorporeal and the material come together.”</p><
 p>“As explorations of personal proximity in relation to the Internet\, your
  online friends are exercises in catharsis and social stigma.”</p>

 e University of British Columbia’s Critical and Curatorial Studies Program 
 in conjunction with the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\; the Walter Ph
 illips Gallery\; Visual Arts at The Banff Centre\; and the Curatorial Pract
 ice MA Program at the California College of the Arts\, present <em>Curating
  in Front of a Local Backdrop</em> a talk by Nicolaus Schafhausen\, as part
  of the Curatorial Lecture Series.</p><p>Nicolaus Schafhausen is Artistic a
 nd Managing Director of Witte de With Centre for Contemporary Art in Rotter
 dam\, The Netherlands. He was curator of the German Pavilion at both the 52
 nd and 53rd Venice Biennial in 2007 and 2009. As Director of Frankfurter Ku
 nstverein\, from 1998 to 2005\, he curated many thematic exhibitions on con
 temporary social issues\, such as the “local”\, migration\, and a trilogy o
 n the phenomenon of globalization. In 2003 he curated an exhibition to mark
  the 100th anniversary of the birth of Theodor W. Adorno\, titled Adorno. T
 he Possibility of the Impossible.</p><p>This talk will focus on the traditi
 onal European art centre. Operating before a local backdrop\, these centres
  are internationally oriented and address a heterogeneous public often made
  up of tourists. Although cities are increasingly integrating them into the
 ir marketing strategies\, when it comes to financing\, they are being left 
 more and more to fend for themselves. While contemporary art deals with the
  many challenges in politics\, society and economy in a productive and refl
 ective way\, art institutions have to face these challenges directly. This 
 includes diminishing financial support and general changes within a city’s 
 citizens. Art centres continue to assume that they have a relationship with
  the local citizenry\, though none of the demographic factors seem to favou
 r the continuance of this traditional alliance.</p><p>As part of this lectu
 re\, Schafhausen will survey his curatorial practice since the 1990s\, star
 ting with his current project “Morality” which he has initiated as the new 
 leitmotif for Witte de With. Morality is a broad subject that references a 
 total field of social engagement. As a project\, “Morality” seeks to explor
 e critical points of fragmentation in everyday life which seem to be simple
 \, but are also disturbingly difficult to grasp.</p><p>The Curatorial Lectu
 re Series presents lectures on contemporary curatorial practice. It is orga
 nized by the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery in collaboration with the 
 Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory\; the Museum of Anthropol
 ogy\; and the Department of Anthropology\; with the support of the Audain E
 ndowment for Curatorial Studies\; and the Faculty of Arts at The University
  of British Columbia. This talk is presented in collaboration with the Walt
 er Phillips Gallery\; Visual Arts at The Banff Centre\; and the Curatorial 
 Practice MA Program at the California College of the Arts.</p>

 \, since 1997\, diversity is not the right word\, and the claims are subjec

 ematics to each other and formulates two group exhibitions. Doublethink is 
 the second exhibition running from Wednesday December 2 – Saturday December
  5\, 2009.</p><p>The power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mi
 nd simultaneously\, and accepting both of them... To tell deliberate lies w
 hile genuinely believing in them\, to forget any fact that has become incon
 venient\, and then\, when it becomes necessary again\, to draw it back from
  oblivion for just so long as it is needed\, to deny the existence of objec
 tive reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one den
 ies - all this is indispensably necessary. Even in using the word doublethi
 nk it is necessary to exercise doublethink. For by using the word one admit
 s that one is tampering with reality\; by a fresh act of doublethink one er
 ases this knowledge\; and so on indefinitely\, with the lie always one leap
  ahead of the truth.<br />- <em>George Orwell. Nineteen Eighty-Four. (Marti
 n Secker & Warburg Ltd\, London) 1949. 220.<br /></em><br />As the globe un
 dergoes a continuous transformation\, where space and time are compressed t
 hrough various technologies\, we are burdened with the necessity of consumi
 ng a constructed reality\, this much we know. We are delivered rapid-fire n
 ews\, images\, and stories that must first pass through our own sensory sie
 ve.  This has sparked our interest in the orchestrated reality that is comp
 osed and performed for us and by us on a daily basis.</p><p>While Orwell's 
 seminal novel may offer a vision of the future that seems at the very least
  hyperbolic\, it also offers some startling insights into the nature of the
  forces that construct our own reality. With this in mind\, Doublethink bri
 ngs together the work of twelve artists whose that’ range from childhood ex
 perience to time travel to choreography to the occult.</p><p>As reference t
 o the ways in which Orwellian language leads to a concomitant sanitization 
 of thought\, Doublethink proposes to explore the processes by which our thi
 nking – as a society as well as individuals - only seems natural\, when in 
 fact it is profoundly not our own. At what point do our mind and our body c
 ease to communicate with one another? How does this affect our ability to p
 erceive the world around us? To what extent are our interactions based on r
 eaction to earnest experience\, as opposed to embedded notions of propriety
 ? What is the role of language in all of this? As artists\, how might we im
 agine art as having the ability to expose the forces that shape our world s
 o profoundly\, when art\, in turn\, may be just another product of this inv
 isible agenda? And most importantly\, who is driving this thing?</p><p><em>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>January 8 to 30\, 2010</h4><p>January 8 t
 o 30\, 2010<br />Opening Reception: Friday\, January 8\, 8 pm.<br />Open ho
 urs: Saturdays from 1 to 4 pm.</p><p>Guest curated by Keith Wallace</p><p>T
 he title of Manuel Piña’s exhibition\, <em>Chronotypes</em>\, is\, on the o
 ne hand\, a reference to “chronotopes\,” a term proposed by Russian philoso
 pher Mikhail Bakhtin in the 1920s to describe the interdependency of time a
 nd space within the medium of novel writing. This intersection between time
  and space has also preoccupied theorists interested in the dynamics that c
 atalyze the urban environment\, and who see it as a succession of often unr
 elated or coincidental encounters. On the other hand\, for Piña\, chronotyp
 es evoke the individual rhythms of our consciousness and bodies as we move 
 through the city\, with frictions arising from the confluence between chron
 otopes and chronotypes and emerging as the focus of his works.</p><p>Known 
 primarily for his still photography\, Chronotypes presents three of Piña’s 
 video projects developed during the past decade and provide a link to his o
 ngoing exploration of how the world is read through photography and the que
 stion of which history and reality a photograph records within the politici
 zed spaces of the urban environment. His videos\, although seemingly straig
 htforward on the surface\, avoid high-tech polish and traditional formal ae
 sthetic framing to disrupt our habitual understanding of urban space and th
 e time we spend within it. The camera lens\, often positioned at irregular 
 angles or heights\, appears to possess its own “eye\,” and is directed to e
 vents that exist within our peripheral vision—his images often reveal what 
 we actually neglect to see—in which regulated and unregulated moments in so
 cial space collide and render the stream of images as ambiguous\, unformed\
 , unexpected\, and abstracted. People are subjects within in each of these 
 videos\, but rather than functioning as portraits or representations of ind
 ividuals\, they exist as but one inescapable entity among many that are cau
 ght up within the cycles that comprise the urban fabric of the city.</p><p>
 One video from 2000 records the view from a car window as it drives through
  various districts of Havana\, and captures a sequence of fleeting impressi
 ons that depict daily social interactions\, iconic landmarks\, and various 
 streetscapes. Another video\, from 2009\, was shot in Vancouver\, but is re
 corded by a seemingly anonymous still camera located in the doorway of an e
 mpty storefront\, with the camera lens a witness to the movements\, both an
 imate and inanimate\, occurring on the street. Yet another\, also from 2009
 \, consists of seven videos\, again shot from a still camera\, in which the
  pace is slowed down\, stressing the dimension of time and creating familia
 r yet disconcerting scenarios of the everyday urban environment.</p><p>Manu
 el Piña was born and raised in Havana\, and moved to Vancouver in 2004 wher
 e he is Assistant Professor in the Department of Art History\, Visual Art\,
  and Theory at the University of British Columbia. Trained as a mechanical 
 engineer in the Soviet Union\, upon his return to Havana in the late 1980s\
 , Piña pursued his interest in photography and is recognized as an importan
 t artist within the resurgent interest in Cuban art during the 1990s. Since
  then\, he has exhibited widely\, participating in shows in North America\,
  Latin America\, and Europe.</p><p>This is the first time this work has bee
 n presented in Vancouver. Manuel Piña’s work is in the collections of the M
 orris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, Vancouver\; Daros Latinamerica\, Zuric
 h\; Centro Wilfredo Lam\, Havana\; and the Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston.</

 COUVER: Curated by Professor <strong>Charlotte Townsend-Gault</strong> of t
 he University of British Columbia\, <em>Backstory: Nuuchaanulth Ceremonial 
 Curtains and the Work of Ḳi-ḳe-in</em> brings together for the first time\,
  contemporary ceremonial curtains by Nuuchaanulth artist <strong>Ron Hamilt
 on (Ḳi-ḳe-in)</strong> and historical curtains from museum and private coll
 ections in Canada and the United States.</p><p>Painted on cotton\, these ar
 e amongst the largest (up to 3 metres high x 10 metres long) portable two-d
 imensional paintings in the world. Historical ancestral exploits and episod
 es from family histories\, conflicts\, captures and alliances are seen in t
 hese striking narrative works. The Nuuchaanulth were the first people Europ
 eans encountered when Captain James Cook landed at Yuquot in 1778 in what i
 s now British Columbia. Though much of the art of the Northwest Coast has c
 ome to be associated with poles and carvings of the Haida and Kwakwaka'wakw
 \, the Nuuchaanulth have made and used ceremonial curtains for thousands of
  years on the west coast of what is now called Vancouver Island.</p><p>Each
  curtain has been painted following the instructions from a family needing 
 it to tell the ‘backstory’\, its history and spiritual pedigree\, that will
  enhance and validate the ceremony of naming\, celebrating a marriage\, mou
 rning\, or reconciling. Curtains were originally painted using locally deri
 ved pigments\, including charcoal\, ochre and other minerals\, on cedar pla
 nks or panels. The prohibitions on First Nations ceremonies that derived fr
 om the 1885 Indian Act meant that these events were driven underground\, hi
 dden from view. It was during this period that some of the fine older examp
 les in this exhibition found their way into public and private collections 
 around the world. But the Nuuchaanulth never stopped creating and displayin
 g the stories that formed the backdrop to the most important events of thei
 r lives\, although they were now using sail cloth or cotton so that they co
 uld be folded up and hidden from the Indian Agents\, if necessary.</p><p>Ac
 companied by photographs\, documents and interviews\, <em>Backstory: Nuucha
 anulth Ceremonial Curtains and the Work of Ḳi-ḳe-in</em> promotes a deeper 
 understanding of Nuuchaanulth art and culture and is a celebration of these
  remarkable curtains and the people who make and use them.</p><p><strong>Ro
 n Hamilton (Ḳi-ḳe-in)</strong> is a Nuuchaanulth fisher\, storyteller\, poe
 t\, and scholar from the Hupacasath First Nation and lives on the Ahaswinis
  Reserve in the Alberni Valley. Hamilton is active internationally through 
 his participation in public debates\, symposia\, and exhibitions concerning
  a trans-Pacific history for the cultures and art of the Northwest Coast. H
 e has contributed to the publications\, <em>Indian Residential Schools: the
  Nuuchahnulth Experience (1996) and Listening to our Ancestors: The Art of 
 Native Life Along the North Pacific Coast (2006)</em>. <strong>Ḳi-ḳe-in</st
 rong> has made a vital contribution to Nuuchaanulth traditional art\, cerem
 onial and ritual life.</p><p><strong>Charlotte Townsend-Gault</strong> is P
 rofessor in the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at the Un
 iversity of British Columbia and Honorary Visiting Research Fellow in the D
 epartment of Anthropology at the University College London. Her interest is
  in contemporary Indigenous cultures and arts. Townsend-Gault was a curator

  MOA Curator of Contemporary Visual Arts. Presented with Vancouver 2010 Cul
 tural Olympiad.</p><p>Border Zones: New Art Across Cultures is an exhibitio
 n of international contemporary art that will inaugurate MOA’s Audain Galle
 ry on January 23\, 2010. It brings together the work of twelve artists enga
 ged in a dialogue about cultural boundaries –within and between communities
 \, art practices\, audiences\, or institutions – and the possibility of tra
 nslation across them.</p><p>Through a surprising diversity of media and app
 roaches\, the artists selected for this show use the idea of a border space
  to raise questions about migration and identity\, knowledge protection and
  access\, and the permeability and construction of boundaries cross-cultura
 lly. Borders are considered not only as lines or markers that divide cultur
 es\, but also as uncertain spaces that are sites of encounter and transform
 ation.</p><p>Participating artists include Hayati Mokhtar\, Dain-Iskandar S

  Zones: New Art Across Cultures\, which will be on exhibit through Septembe

 entury. Join us for a special Exhibition Reception at 7:00 pm on January 26
 \, at which two of the exhibiting artists\, Tania Mouraud and Rosanna Raymo
 nd\, will present performance pieces. Other artists will also be in attenda
 nce.</p><p>To give you inside access to the ideas behind the exhibit\, an i
 nteractive online magazine\, <a href="http://www.borderzones.ca/">www.Borde
 rZones.ca</a>\, is being created. You can visit the site now\, while it’s u
 nder construction\, but when it officially launches on January 26\, 2010\, 
 you’ll discover personal and thought-provoking articles on each of the arti
 sts by distinguished contributors such as award-winning journalist Jan Wong
 \, educator and activist Gerald Taiaiake Alfred\, and filmmaker and artist 
 Loretta Todd\, among others.</p><p>You’ll be able to email your comments an
 d questions to the site\, some of which will be addressed by the contributo
 rs. You’ll also find video interviews with the artists\, regular updates on
  artist files\, artwork exclusive to the webzine\, provocative reviews of t
 he exhibition\, and a blog devoted to the idea of borders.</p><p>Over the c
 ourse of the exhibition\, BorderZones.ca will become an archive about the i
 dea of borders\, particularly how new spaces of thought and meaning are cre
 ated and contested at the boundaries of knowledge\, language\, art\, cultur
 e\, and politics.</p><p>Border Zones: New Art Across Cultures is presented

 January 29 to 31\, 2010</p><p>According to a recent survey prepared by Merc
 er Consulting\, the world’s largest human resource firm specializing in inv
 estments and outsourcing\, Vancouver is now the fourth most livable city in
  the world establishing it as an increasingly popular model for urban devel
 opment. The survey\, which effectively confers world-class status on the ci
 ty\, sparks obvious questions about Vancouver and its role in the global im
 aginary. Why is Vancouver the only North American city in the top ten? What
  images of the city are created and circulated to represent this livability
 \, and what do such images signify?</p><p>The title of this project\, <em>L
 earning from Vancouver</em>\, comes from a commissioned work by Dutch artis
 t duo Bik Van der Pol (Rotterdam\, NL). This exhibition marks the first pre
 sentation of their practice in Canada. Bik Van der Pol’s work will be prese
 nted together with a work by the collective Urban Subjects (Vienna AT and V
 ancouver\, CA) that is in formal and thematic dialogue.</p><p>Liesbeth Bik 
 and Jos Van der Pol\, known as Bik Van der Pol\, have worked collectively s
 ince 1995. They have researched and developed this work during two residenc
 ies at the Western Front in 2009 and 2010. Their practice explores the pote
 ntial of art to produce and transmit knowledge and research methods of how 
 to activate situations in order to create a platform for various kinds of c
 ommunicative activities. Bik Van der Pol’s works has been shown extensively
 \, for instance at Art In General (New York\, US)\; ISP Whitney (New York\,
  US)\; Marie Louise Hessel Museum/CCS Bard (Annandale-on-Hudson\, NY)\; Rij
 ksmuseum (Amsterdam\, NL)\; Van Abbe Museum (Eindhoven\, NL)\; Witte de Wit
 h (Rotterdam\, NL).</p><p>Urban Subjects is a visual research collective fo
 rmed by Sabine Bitter\, Jeff Derksen\, and Helmut Weber\, developing interd
 isciplinary artistic projects focusing on urban issues. They recently publi
 shed the book <em>Autogestion\, or Henri Lefebvre in New Belgrade</em>\, wi
 th a previously unpublished manuscript by Lefebvre (Fillip\, Vancouver\, CA
  and Sternberg Press\, Berlin\, DE) and have another edited volume\, <em>No
 t Sheep: New Urban Enclosures and Commons</em> forthcoming. They are curren
 tly developing an international exhibition on the urban effects of Olympics
  and Expos\, <em>Where the World Was: Cities After Global Mega-events</em> 
 and are working on a project on new forms of <em>autogestion</em> in relati
 on to the state in Caracas\, Venezuela.</p><p><em>Learning from Vancouver</
 em> will engage diverse local communities in live conversation about Vancou
 ver and its image through a range of entry points\, all free to the public.
  In addition to the exhibition\, a three-day symposium headed by distinguis
 hed local and international speakers will unpack current mediatizations and
  images of the city: Bik Van der Pol (Rotterdam\, NL)\; Clint Burnham (Vanc
 ouver\, CA)\; Paul de Guzman (Vancouver\, CA)\; Alissa Firth-Eagland and Jo

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Sarah Stanners</strong>\, Post Doc
 toral Fellow in the Department\, 2009-2010 will present on her work-in-prog
 ress in this term's only session of <em>Close-up</em>.</p><p>-----------</p
 ><p><em><strong>Serendipity and the Work of Simon Starling </strong></em></
 p><p>Contemporary artist Simon Starling (b. 1967) won the Turner Prize in 2
 005 for dismantling a riverside shed in order to build a boat\, only to dis
 mantle the boat in order to rebuild the shed within a museum. He says that 
 his prize-winning artwork <em>Shedboatshed </em>is "…about trying to connec
 t things\, connect histories\, connect places\, connect ideas and somehow t
 he vehicles are a sort of integral part of that process…"1 Starling's conce
 ptual aims are almost always pursued by physical means. With <em>Autoxylopy
 rocycloboros </em>(2006)\, the artist salvaged a sunken boat from Scotland'
 s Lake Windermere\, redeployed the vessel on Loch Long\, equipped it with a
  steam engine\, and powered the engine with freshly chopped sections of woo
 d from the boat itself until its demands resulted in its own sinking. Throu
 gh a series of observations\, made possible by research and the formation o
 f a network of relationships (both practical and intellectual)\, this artwo
 rk connected a myriad of ideas to make a statement about society's ridiculo
 us and self-destructive consumption of resources.</p><p>"It’s luck but it’s
  also just about identifying something’s significance\," says Starling abou
 t the observations that led him to make <em>Autoxylopyrocycloboros</em>. As
  a corrective to the understanding of serendipity in scientific innovation\
 , Mark de Rond states\, "…serendipity signals the ability to single out ‘co
 rrect pairs’ of observations that may have nothing in common except that th
 ey can be <em>meaningfully </em>related." De Rond and others (in a wide ran
 ge of disciplines) have resuscitated the etymology of 'serendipity' to emph
 asize that it is an ability\, not an event\, and therefore a consequence of
  agency\, rather than chance. A serious consideration of serendipity in the
  visual arts is due and therefore my postdoctoral work aims to assess the c
 reative mode of meaningfully relating what is seemingly unrelated. Looking 
 to the recent art of Simon Starling\, who recycles or replays sculptural mo
 des of the twentieth century within a contemporary art framework\, will all
 ow me to demonstrate that the serendipity observed in the resulting artwork
  or exhibition installation is an engineered aspect of the artist's creativ
 e process. Serendipity is a matter of strategy. Some artists speak of using
  a certain amount of luck to steer their creations\, but I argue that seren
 dipity is\, in this case\, the agency of the artist.</p><p>Between 2006 and
  2008\, I had the chance to closely observe Starling’s creation of <em>Infe
 station Piece: Musselled Moore</em> (2006-08)\, which was commissioned by t
 he Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery in Toronto. At the time\, my resear
 ch was concentrated on Henry Moore’s impact on Toronto and so\, along with 
 many other people\, I became a part of Starling’s working method\, which is
  open\, and – like a net – cast widely. I found that I was a researcher wat
 ching another researcher at work. With Starling’s work\, and much conceptua
 l art in general\, the process is paramount but not often displayed. My cur
 rent research now aims to reflect on the processes involved in a selection 
 of Starling’s projects and other artists who similarly cultivate the condit
 ions for serendipity as a part of their working method.</p><p>- Sarah Stann

 ginal body may be utilized to create and dismantle First Nations stereotype
 s. Belmore and Houle\, each in their own way\, utilize their own body and t

 affects of racial stereotyping.”</p><p>Anishinabe-born Rebecca Belmore base
 s her practice in Vancouver\, British Columbia. Since 1987\, her multi-disc
 iplinary work has addressed history\, place and identity through the media 
 of sculpture\, installation\, video and performance. Belmore was Canada's o

 <u>Curatorial Statement</u></p><p>Ontario is home to one of the largest nat
 ural resources in the world\, yet many of us are unaware of its global stat
 ure nor its impact on our daily lives. Ontario’s Greenbelt extends from Nia
 gara-on-the-Lake in the south to Peter’s Woods Provincial Park in the east\
 , encompassing more than 720\,000 hectares. It is a diverse\, complex and m
 ulti-faceted resource that is challenging to comprehend in one quick snapsh
 ot. In order to shed light on this groundbreaking initiative\, Harbourfront
  Centre commissioned eight artists to focus their artistic lens on the vast
  natural wealth of the international treasure that surrounds us. Each artis
 t was asked to address one of three key aspects of the living Greenbelt: <e
 m>Working the Land\, Natural Beauty</em> and the <em>People of the Greenbel
 t</em>. We hope that the journeys of the artists\, and the images they have
  created\, will illuminate this gift of nature that is ours to protect.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening reception: Friday\, June 25th\, 6
  - 8 pm. Runs June 25th - August 7th\, 2010.</h4><p><strong>Ryan Peter's</s
 trong> exhibition SPACETIME! explores the relationship between painting\, m
 ateriality\, and the photographic image\, specifically the aesthetic and au
 ral potential of materials in the era of digital manipulation. Minimizing b
 rushstrokes\, he works with heavily watered-down paints and mechanical tech
 niques such as aerosol sprays on non-absorbent substrates like plastic or h
 eavily varnished wood and canvas. Challenging modernist ideas of material u
 nity\, the fluid paints fail to merge with the substrates and instead dry v
 ery slowly on the surface. This material incompatibility\, exacerbated by t
 he inclusion of chemical resists\, produces curious drying effects. The res
 ultant forms and reticulations resemble photographic prints - quoting every
 thing from the earliest daguerreotypes to more recent scientific photograph
 y such as photomicrographs and satellite imagery.</p><p>Based in Vancouver\
 , Ryan Peter holds a BFA (2004) and an MFA (2008) from the University of Br
 itish Columbia. He was a finalist for the 11th Annual RBC Canada Painting C
 ompetition\, exhibited at teh Musee d'art contemporain de Montreal and at T
 he Power Plant in Toronto. He has participated in recent group exhibitions 
 at The Morris and Helen Belkin Gallery and Equinox Gallery\, Vancouver. In 
 addition to his painting practice\, Peter also works collaboratively with o
 ther artists. Most recently he has worked with Raymond Boisjoly on projects
  for exhibitions in Canada and the United States. This is Ryan Peter's firs
 t solo show with Republic Gallery.</p><p>Spacetime! will be on show June 25
 th through August 7th with an artist reception on Friday\, June 25th\, 6-8p
 m. Regular gallery hours are 11am-5pm\, Wednesday through Saturday\, and by
  appointment.</p><p>REPUBLIC GALLERY 732 Richards St\, 3rd Floor\, Vancouve

 \, Sept.19\, 12–5 pm. Runs through Sept 19th.</h4><p>The Morris and Helen B
 elkin Art Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of work by the 2010 g
 raduates of the two-year Master of Fine Arts program in the Department of A
 rt History\, Visual Art and Theory at the University of British Columbia -<
 strong> Keesic Douglas\, Sydney Hermant\, Fan-Ling Suen\, Zoe Tissandier\, 
 </strong>and<strong> Clare Yow.</strong></p><p><strong>Keesic Douglas’</str
 ong> photography and installation work adopts the forms of fashion and pop 
 culture imagery. He uses deadpan humour to question the objectification and
  commodification of First Nations’ traditions and history by embracing and 
 portraying cultural stereotypes and artifacts.</p><p><strong>Sydney Hermant
 ’s </strong>aggregates of disposable materials and automatic processes resu
 lt in sculptural installations of petrified paint. She uses ubiquitous mate
 rials such as coffee cups and plastic bottles to enact precariously balance
 d systems of materials that drip paint to make artwork over time. Her pract
 ice embraces a variety of forms that reflect on the notions of productive a
 nd unproductive uses of free time through rigorous hobbyism.</p><p><strong>
 Fan-Ling Suen </strong>uses morbid humour to explore the forging and severi
 ng of human relations and family ties. Her sculpture works call for interac
 tion and play to entice the viewer into a possibly dangerous situation. Inf
 luenced by games and stories\, she makes set-like sculptures that rely on r
 ole-playing and invoke imagined scenarios.</p><p><strong>Zoe Tissandier’s</
 strong> practice is research-oriented\, and touches on aspects of archives\
 , collections and storage systems to form propositions related to the class
 ification and display of material and knowledge in her work. She uses video
 \, personal collections\, found text\, sound and installation. Her practice
  has been influenced by her transition from the UK to Canada to investigate
  the position of the long-term tourist. Her recent work addresses the souve
 nir\, in particular the snow-globe —a miniature landscape that can contain 
 and immortalize memory.</p><p><strong>Clare Yow’s</strong> installation and
  sculpture works show a concern for seemingly banal systems of indexing eve
 ryday activity. She performs and creates installations about collective and
  individual memory and references the physical marking of duration through 
 labour. She is interested in the commonplace\, mimicry and repetitive actio
 ns\, the gender associations of formal artistic strategies\, and has recent
 ly employed the use of the grid in order to investigate its rigid and chaot
 ic qualities.</p><p>For more information contact Naomi Sawada at (604) 822-

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening reception: Thursday\, September 1
 6th\, 6 - 8 pm. Exhibition runs to October 30\, 2010.</h4><p>In her work\, 
 <strong>Gwenessa Lam</strong> explores the intersection between the percept
 ion\, memory\, and representation of place. Drawing from notions of the unc
 anny\, her paintings depict darkened interiors and shadows cast from everyd
 ay objects. Furniture pieces and other items are distorted to varying degre
 es\, straddling the familiar and ambiguous\, animate and inanimate. As a vi
 sual trace\, shadows normally register the physical presence of an object o
 r being\; the subsequent absence of things conveys a sense of dislocation a
 nd alienation. These works imprint the fleeting nature of the shadow as an 
 index and residue of what was formerly present\, tapping into the psycholog
 ical space of the shadow as the double or alter-ego of a parallel reality. 
 In this way\, they attempt to make visible the unseen markers that can shap
 e our surroundings and our impressions of them.</p><p>Shadow will be on sho
 w <strong>September 16th through October 30th</strong> with an artist recep
 tion on <strong>Thursday\, September 16th\, 6-8pm</strong>. Regular gallery
  hours are 11am-5pm\, Wednesday through Saturday\, and by appointment.</p><
 p><em>Gwenessa Lam is a visual artist and educator. Gwenessa received her B
 FA from the University of British Columbia and MFA from New York University
 . She has taught at New York University\, Emily Carr University of Art and 
 Design\, the University of British Columbia\, and the Art Institute of Vanc

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>A Lecture by Ken Lum</h4><p><strong>Ken L
 um's</strong> practice as an artist is concerned with the dialectics of the
  private and public construction of identity\, space and politics. Born in 
 Vancouver\, where he continues to live and work\, Lum is internationally re
 nowned for his work in sculpture\, painting and photography. Monument for E
 ast Vancouver (pictured) is his third public art commission in Vancouver.</
 p><p>He has participated in numerous international art exhibitions\, includ
 ing the Sydney Biennale\, Venice Biennale\, Documenta XI in Kassel\, German
 y and more recently\, the 2007 Istanbul Biennial and 2008 Gwangju Biennale 
 in South Korea.</p><p>Lum has also led a distinguished career as an educato
 r\, teaching at the University of British Columbia\, where he was Head of t
 he Graduate Program in Studio Art from 2000 to 2006 and the École Nationale
  Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris\, among other educational institutions.
  He has published widely and is the Founding Editor of Yishu: The Journal o
 f Contemporary Chinese Art. Lum was made a Guggenheim Fellow in 1999 and aw
 arded a Killam Award for Outstanding Research in 1998 and the Hnatyshyn Fou
 ndation Visual Arts Award in 2007.</p><p>He is presently working on two maj
 or public art commissions in Berlin and in Utrecht\, Holland. Lum has worke
 d on several public art projects. "Pi\," sponsored by the city of Vienna\, 
 Austria\, and Wiener Linien (Vienna Public Transit)\, opened in downtown Vi
 enna in January 2007. The work is over 130 meters long and situated in a pr
 ominent pedestrian passageway by Vienna's Karlsplatz subway interchange. In
  2000\, also in Vienna\, he realized a work that responded to the growth of
  the extreme right in Europe called "There is no place like home\," which w
 as installed on the side of the centrally located Vienna Kunsthalle.</p><p>
 "Four Boats Stranded: Red and Yellow\, Black and White" was installed upon 
 the roof of the Vancouver Art Gallery in 2001. The work\, which can be view
 ed as a comment on immigration and acculturation\, features four model boat
 s: a First Nations longboat\, a cargo ship\, the steam liner Komagata Maru\
 , and George Vancouver's ship HMS Discovery. Each vessel has been placed at
  one of the building's compass points – north\, south\, east\, and west – a
 nd painted in a colour intended to reflect the stereotyped racial vision pr
 esented in the hymn "Jesus Loves the Little Children."</p><p>A book of his 
 writings from Walther Koenig Books (Cologne) is forthcoming. In 2008\, he c
 ompleted a book project\, titled Ultimo Bagaglio (Three Star Press\, Paris)
  with French philosopher Hubert Damisch.</p><p>Directions: <a href="http://

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Toronto Brickworks - September 26 to Dece
 mber 31\, 2010</h4><p>From September 26 to December 31\, 2010\, an environm
 entally themed video installation entitled Four Directions will be on show 
 in celebration of the opening of Evergreen at the Brickworks in Toronto.</p
 ><p>Through this exhibition\, public art organization No. 9 Contemporary Ar
 t & the Environment – along with curator Andrea Carson – hope to demonstrat
 e that contemporary art can stimulate positive social and environmental cha
 nge. The group video exhibition features four powerful environmentally them
 ed video artworks\, each screened inside one of four restored drying kilns 
 (long tunnels). The kilns are located at the north end of the Heritage Bric
 k Factory\, Building 16\, a 52\,000-square-foot space which is the largest 
 building on site.</p><p>The works to be screened are Lessons of Darkness by
  legendary German filmmaker Werner Herzog and three Canadian artists: L'or 
 blanc/White Gold\, a No. 9 commission by Isabelle Hayeur (Quebec)\, The Cya
 nide Flats: 50°54´15´´N / 95°20´20´´W\, a No. 9 commission by Val Klassen (
 Manitoba)\, and Waterspeak by <strong>Dana Claxton</strong> (British Columb
 ia).</p><p>The exhibition’s goal is to acknowledge man-made environmental d
 estruction and to offer alternative ways of thinking about a healthy earth 
 that suggest regrowth and healing. The exhibition will present a journey fo
 r the viewer from Herzog’s bleak documentation of Kuwait’s burning oil fiel
 ds to Isabelle Hayeur’s curtain of softly falling salt crystals\, followed 
 by Val Klassen’s still signs of hope within a ravaged landscape\, to Dana C
 laxton’s mesmerizing plea on behalf of water.</p><p>Without being overly di
 dactic or preachy\, together the three works will provide a response to Her
 zog’s Lessons of Darkness. As the viewer progresses through each tunnel\, h
 e/she will witness environmental devastation\, followed by works that engag
 e the emotions to suggest mindfulness\, respect and honour for our environm
 ent.</p><p>For more information on No. 9 Contemporary Art & the Environment

 8 - 10 pm. Artist Talk Saturday\, October 9\, 1 - 3pm. To December 5th.</h4
 ><p>The Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery is pleased to present the first
  solo exhibition in North America of work by Amsterdam based\, artist-filmm
 aker Mark Boulos. Boulos was trained as a documentary filmmaker and is now 
 working on gallery installations. The exhibition features a new\, three cha
 nnel\, three projection work\, No Permanent Address (2010) and production s
 tills\, the two channel\, double projection work\, All That is Solid Melts 
 Into Air (2008) that was recently exhibited at the 6th Berlin Biennale\, an
 d the single channel monitor work\, The Word Was God (2007).</p><p>Boulos’ 
 work revolves around his interest in revolutionary ardour and religious ecs
 tasy. In the twenty minute\, All That is Solid Melts Into Air\, one screen 
 portrays the Nigerian rebel group MEND who are trying to sabotage the oil i
 ndustry in the Niger Delta. Boulos reveals the Marxist politics of group me
 mbers and their adherence to the war god Egbisu who they believe\, gives th
 em invulnerability to bullets. The sequence climaxes in a war dance. On the
  other screen are scenes from the Chicago Stock Exchange (where oil is trad
 ed) on the day of the Bear Stearns collapse. The frenzied traders and gesti
 culating warriors echo and face each other. This work was shown at the 2008
  Sidney Biennale and at the 2010 Berlin Biennale. All That is Solid Melts I
 nto Air has never been shown in North America.</p><p>The first presentation
  of No Permanent Address is at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery. The
  work is for three screens and consists of portraits and vignettes from lif
 e with members of the New People’s Army\, a Maoist guerrilla group in the P
 hilippines who have recently allowed same-sex marriages among the cadres. B
 oulos talks to various members of the group and witnesses their daily life.
  The piece climaxes with a tense preparation for a possible encounter with 
 the Philippine Army (which does not\, in the end\, occur).</p><p>In a geo-p
 olitical world where more and more struggles for sovereignty are labeled “t
 errorist”\, Boulos gives a non-journalistic\, diaristic and very human port
 rait of people who have turned to militancy.</p><p><strong>Biography</stron
 g></p><p>Mark Boulos is an artist-filmmaker living and working in Amsterdam
 . During 2010\, his work has been exhibited at the 6th Berlin Biennale for 
 Contemporary Art\, in the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art\, and i
 n a solo exhibition at AR/GE Kunst Galerie Museum in Bolzano. In 2008\, Bou
 los participated in the Biennale of Sydney and had his first solo show at t

 y Parties</strong> is an interactive art installation: an eight-foot cube h
 ousing a self-contained dance party\, placed in center of the AMS Art Galle
 ry. The libidinal\, sexy\, sloppy\, auditory\, tactile transcendence of the
  dance party interrupts the cerebral\, clean\, cool\, minimal\, controlled\
 , visual space of the art gallery.</p><p>The party cube is a study in the a
 rchitecture of small spaces—purpose-built to house a dance party for eight 
 people\, a DJ and a bartender. The participants come and go between the ext
 erior gallery space and the interior party space. Their time within the cub
 e is dictated by their stamina. It will be hot\, loud and claustrophobic.</
 p><p>University students are constantly bounced between being expected to b
 e adults\, kids\, professionals\, party-animals\, experienced\, naive\, etc
 . <em>Tiny Parties</em> addresses this disjuncture by creating unexpected c
 onnections between participants through the blurring of boundaries.</p><p>T
 he disciplining force of architectural and social signs dictate the rules o
 f the spaces in which we operate. The passage of participants through the i
 nterior walls separating the party and the gallery deterritorialize and ret
 erritorialize these spaces\, drawing a critical eye towards the constructed
  nature of rules and systems of appropriate social conduct.</p>

 or aesthetics itself) over the last few decades?  Susan Sontag argues in On
  Photography (1977) that a photograph of a person suffering can only aesthe
 ticize the suffering for the viewer’s pleasure.  Yet she defends the contra
 ry position in Regarding the Pain of Others (2003)\, insisting that a work 
 of art can have a sustainable moral-political effect precisely because of i

  be symptomatic of a cultural shift in our understanding of aesthetics\, et

 -based Canadian artist whose practice incorporates video\, performance\, dr
 awing and installation\, critical writing\, and music. Gilligan has receive
 d numerous awards and commissions for her recent video works\, which combin
 e scathing critical analyses of global economic and cultural forms\, with t
 he often comedic forms of television and popular entertainment. Her critica
 l essays and reviews have been published in journals such as Artforum and T
 exte zur Kunst\, and her band Petit Mal\, has been declared "The most inter
 esting and forward looking artists on the avant-electronic underground pop 
 scene!" by Paul Lester of The Guardian.</p><p>Her new film\, <em>Popular Un
 rest</em> – which will be opening at the Presentation House Gallery\, Vanco
 uver on November 26th – is a multi-episode drama set in a future much like 
 the present. Here\, however\, all exchange transactions and social interact
 ions are overseen by a system called 'the Spirit'. A rash of unexplained ki
 llings have broken out across the globe. They often take place in public bu
 t witnesses never see an assailant. Just as mysteriously\, groups of unrela
 ted people are suddenly coming together everywhere\, amassing new members r
 apidly. Unaccountably\, they feel a deep and persistent sense of connection
  to one another. 
The film explores a world in which the self is reduced to
  physical biology\, directly subject to the needs of capital. Hotels offer 
 bed-warming servants with every room\, people are fined for not preventing 
 foreseeable illness\, weight watching foods eat the digester from the insid
 e and the unemployed repay their debt to society in physical energy.</p><p>
 Shot in London with a cast of twelve main actors\, the film's form is partl
 y inspired by David Cronenberg's 'body horror' and American television dram
 as CSI\, Dexter and Bones\, where reality is perceived through a pornograph
 ic forensics of empirical and visceral phenomena. As with Gilligan’s other 
 recent video works\, the film’s episodic structure takes its cue from telev
 ision and its ability to dispense a storyline in stages. The five episodes 
 of the film are each screened individually in an installation that takes th
 e form of a series of enclosed booths\, fabricated from office screens and 
 room dividers.</p><p>As part of the Distinguished Visiting Artist Program a
 t UBC’s Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory\, Gilligan will p
 resent an artist’s lecture\, discussing a range of her material\, historica
 l and intellectual interests as an artist. Running throughout Gilligan’s wo
 rk is an abiding interest in examining\, as Walter Benjamin wrote\, how sto
 rytelling submerges the important facts and details of its narrative into t
 he life of the storyteller\, rather than present them as raw data such as a
  report assumes to do.</p><p>Melanie Gilligan was born in Toronto in 1979. 
 She currently lives and works in London and New York. Gilligan completed a 
 BA (Hons) Fine Art at Central Saint Martins in 2002 and was a Fellow with t
 he Whitney Museum of American Art’s Independent Study Programme in 2004-5. 
 Recent exhibitions include: Transmission Gallery Glasgow (2008) as part of 
 the Glasgow International Festival and Franco Soffiantino Gallery\, Turin (
 2009). In 2008 Gilligan released Crisis in the Credit System\, a four-part 
 fictional mini drama about the recent financial crisis\, made specifically 
 for internet viewing and distribution\, commissioned and produced by Artang
 el Interaction. She has recently completed a single screen film Self-capita
 l (2009)\, commissioned by the Institute of Contemporary Arts London as par
 t of the group exhibition ‘Talk Show’. In October 2009 Gilligan was the rec
 ipient of a Paul Hamlyn Award for Artists and has most recently been awarde
 d the 2010 Present-Future prize at Artissima\, Torino\, Italy.</p><p><em>*f

 rong> This salon-style art exhibition is organized to challenge students to
  respond to the age-old question "What is Art?"\, and more specifically\, "
 What is ART for the institution and students of UBC?"</p><p>As we study at 
 this particular university to enhance our knowledge\, we are challenged to 
 question the role of art in our society\, and wrestle with what this implie
 s in relation to our beliefs on what is important in life.</p><p>The artwor
 ks presented in this exhibition are not juried nor questioned as to whether
  it is "good" or "bad" art. All art that was submitted was accepted for the
  unique voice it contributes into dialogues with people inside and outside 
 contemporary art culture.</p><p>The space\, time\, and purpose of this exhi
 bition can be defined differently by each person who becomes a part of this
  act itself. Thus\, VASA\, as a representative of Visual Arts students\, co
 nsiders this exhibition to be an earnest act of students who have been sear
 ching for their own answers.</p><p>Please share in this moment of pleasant 
 confusion and hope\, and let this act be your guide.</p><p>Yoriko Gillard<b

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs to February 26\, 2011. Or
  satellite gallery\, Berlin\, Germany</h4><p><strong>Marina Roy’s</strong> 
 exhibition What’s pushed out the door comes back through the window sets up
  an arena of discursive activity between human\, animal\, myth\, psychoanal
 ysis\, literature\, and biopolitics. The artworks—two and three dimensional
  works as well as moving image—cull their inspiration from the grotesque\, 
 a stylistic term that comes from the Latin grotto\, meaning small cave. The
  original caves were in fact rooms and corridors of the Domus Aurea\, an un
 finished palace Nero had started in 64 AD but which was buried after his de
 ath and then forgotten over fifteen centuries before they were rediscovered
 . The walls of the rooms were covered in a decorative interweaving of plant
 \, animal\, human and mineral imagery. One of Roy’s approaches is to sift t
 hrough literature and found imagery to uncover and reconstruct a metaphoric
 al network of unconscious corridors and rooms\, hinting at the many ways ci
 vilization has reconfigured bios to political ends. The work points to how 
 repressed desire and trauma always find a way back through the window\, jus
 t as ‘nature’ finds ways of reasserting itself despite human/cultural contr
 ol.</p><p>Marina Roy is a Vancouver-based artist who works across a variety
  of media\, including drawing\, painting\, video\, animation\, sculpture\, 
 and writing. She has exhibited work in Canada\, the United States\, Europe 
 and India. Incorporating raw and found materials\, image and text\, her wor
 k strives to create an allegorical visual language that reveals the ideolog
 ical structures that bind us. The foundations of her research are in psycho
 analysis\, biopolitics\, human-animal distinction\, linguistics\, and art h
 istory. In 2010 she was recipient of the VIVA art award. In 2001 she publis
 hed sign after the x (Artspeak/Arsenal Pulp)\, an encyclopedic book which r
 evolves around the letter X and its multiple meanings in Western culture. S
 he is currently researching and writing a new book about human-animal disti
 nction\, biopolitics\, and the letter Q\, titled Queuejumping. Marina Roy i

 1.</h4><p>Since the origins of Surrealism in the 1920s\, the tension betwee
 n the recognizable and the unfamiliar has inspired and informed artistic pr
 actices. Unreal\, drawn primarily from the Gallery’s permanent collection a
 nd augmented with local loans\, considers contemporary artists’ exploration
 s beyond the rational and looks at the ways in which they delve into ideas 
 around desire\, fantasy\, anxiety and the absurd. Although many of the imag
 es and objects presented may initially appear normal and familiar\, upon cl
 oser examination these quotidian scenes have been transformed into strange\
 , mysterious and at times nightmarish depictions.</p><p>From examinations o
 f human vulnerability to the mining of the unconscious as a source of inspi
 ration\, to a conscious turn towards the strange and fantastic as a deliber
 ate strategy to counter the cool rationality of conceptual art\, this exhib
 ition considers the diversity and innovation with which artists explore the
  many edges of reality. Artists include Francis Bacon\, Maxwell Bates\, Mat
 thew Brown\, Marcel Dzama\, Jock Macdonald\, <strong>Myfanwy Macleod</stron
 g>\, <strong>Luanne Martineau</strong>\, Paul McCarthy\, Jason McLean\, Eri
 c Metcalfe\, Annette Messager\, Sandra Meigs\, Al Neil\, Alfred Pellan\, <s
 trong>Marina Roy</strong> and Cindy Sherman\, among many others.</p><p>This
  exhibition is organized by the Vancouver Art Gallery and curated by Daina 
 Augaitis\, chief curator/associate director.</p><p><em>Photo: Marcel Dzama\

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs from February 4 to April 
 10\, 2011.</h4><p>Faces is an exhibition that features work from the collec
 tion of the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery. The exhibition explores th
 e diverse ways “faces” are represented\, looking specifically at how notion
 s of gender\, race\, class\, and historical contexts affect our understandi
 ng of them—aiming to reveal\, in the process\, that this uniquely human tra
 it is anything but neutral.</p><p>Faces presents over 90 paintings\, photog
 raphs\, sculpture and video from the collection and archives of the Morris 
 and Helen Belkin Art Gallery. In addition\, photographs have been borrowed 
 from the Museum of Anthropology (UBC)\, the Canadian Museum of Civilization
  (Gatineau)\, and the American Museum of Natural History Library (New York)
 .</p><p>This exhibition includes work by: Jerry Allen\, bill bissett\, Clau
 de Breeze\, Dana Claxton\, Kate Craig\, Lawren Harris\, Ray Johnson\, Ken L

 \; and photographs by Charles Edenshaw\, Dan Jorgensen\, Fred Rychman\, Har
 lan Ingersoll Smith\, and others from museum archival collections.</p><p>Wo
 rks in this exhibition will be presented at two additional locations. At Wa
 lter C. Koerner Library\, UBC a collection of portraits represents some of 
 the men and women who have been part of the history of The University of Br
 itish Columbia between 1913 and 1966.  Many of the artists who created thes
 e images are major figures in the history of Canadian art such as Peter Asp
 ell\, Robert Harris\, Lilias Torrance Newton\, and Charles Stegeman.</p><p>
 At the Satellite Gallery at 560 Seymour Street in downtown Vancouver\, we a
 re pleased to present Rebecca Belmore’s The Named and the Unnamed (2002) fr
 om February 4 to April 10\, 2011. This powerful installation confronts the 
 viewer with images of loss\, struggle\, and silence. It incorporates a vide
 o of Vigil that Belmore performed at the corner of Gore and Cordova Streets
  on June 23\, 2002. The Named and the Unnamed is in polemical commemoration
  of the women who have gone missing in the downtown east side of Vancouver.
  It is a reflection on the larger implications of this local event.</p><p>W

 p>Opening reception: Saturday\, February 12th at 6:00pm.</p><p><strong>Fall
 ing Woman</strong> is a looped video depicting a woman trapped in a never-e
 nding fall.  The fall in Falling Woman represents an interest in contrived 
 depictions of unconsciousness.  The piece plays with the dream of falling i
 nterpreted as a loss of control or the feeling of fear and humiliation that
  comes in dreams of being naked.  The wind from the fall forces the protago
 nist's dress over her head\, which simultaneously conceals her identity and
  exposes her naked body\, acting as a natural yet exploitative flirtation w
 ith the camera. Autonomy and control clash for the subject has not jumped n
 or has she been pushed\, and she will never land\, instead she is in the mi
 dst of a continuous fall. The meeting of these moments manifest themselves 
 in an endless sublime sky where we witness the woman frustrated in her atte
 mpt to connect with the sublime.</p>

 t talk Saturday\, February 19\, 3pm. Exhibition runs to March 20\, 2011.</h
 4><p><strong>Marina Roy’s</strong> exhibition What’s pushed out the door co
 mes back through the window (part 2) sets up an arena of discursive activit
 y between human\, animal\, myth\, psychoanalysis\, literature\, and biopoli
 tics. The artworks betray an impulse toward bricolage and the grotesque\, a
  stylistic term that comes from the Latin grotto\, meaning small cave. The 
 original caves were in fact rooms and corridors of the Domus Aurea \, an un
 finished palace Nero had started in 64 AD but which was buried after his de
 ath and then forgotten over fifteen centuries before they were rediscovered
 . The walls of the rooms were covered in a decorative interweaving of hybri
 d plant\, animal\, human and mineral imagery. One of Roy’s approaches is to
  sift through literature and found imagery to uncover and reconstruct a met
 aphorical network of unconscious corridors and rooms\, hinting at the many 
 ways civilization has reconfigured the biological and the natural to politi
 cal ends. The work points to how repressed desire and trauma always find a 
 way back through the window\, just as ‘nature’ finds ways of reasserting it
 self despite human/cultural control.</p><p>At La Centrale\, Roy will presen
 t Apartment\, a 56-minute animation whose structure is inspired by Georges 
 Perec’s 1978 novel La vie: mode d’emploi\, in which the author takes the re
 ader through 100 rooms of an apartment building\, following a knight’s move
  in chess. In Roy’s work\, wild plants and animals slowly take over deterio
 rating rooms as the residents gradually succumb to a mysterious virus. The 
 piece imagines a posthumanist scenario for a posthistorical heterotopic spa
 ce. She will also show the letterpress prints\, Kings and Creatures\, which
  use a variety of formal textual devices to deliver words\, phrases\, and q
 uotes that allude to the relationship between creaturely (or bare) life and
  sovereign power.</p><p>Marina Roy is a Vancouver-based artist who works ac
 ross a variety of media\, including drawing\, painting\, video\, animation\
 , sculpture\, and writing. She has exhibited work in Canada\, the United St
 ates\, the UK\, Europe and India. Incorporating raw and found materials\, i
 mage and text\, her work strives to create an allegorical visual language t
 hat reveals the ideological structures that bind us. In 2010 she was recipi
 ent of the VIVA art award\, British Columbia’s largest visual arts award. I
 n 2001 she published sign after the x (Artspeak/Arsenal Pulp)\, an encyclop
 edic book which revolves around the letter X and its multiple meanings in W
 estern culture. This was also made into an interactive website in 2010\, wi
 th David Clark and Graham Meisner (signafterthex.net). She is currently res
 earching and writing a new book about human-animal distinction\, biopolitic
 s\, and the letter Q\, titled Queuejumping. She is associate professor in v
 isual arts at the University of British Columbia.</p><p><em>The artist woul
 d like to thank Michelyne Roy\, Graham Meisner\, Abbas Akhavan\, and Robert
  Tombs for assistance with production of many of the elements comprising th
 is exhibition.</em></p><p>L’exposition Ce qui est jeté par la porte revient
  par la fenêtre (partie 2) de <strong>Marina Roy</strong> met en scène un e
 space d’activité discursive entre l’humain\, l’animal\, le mythe\, la psych
 analyse\, la littérature et le biopolitique. Les oeuvres révèlent une impul
 sion vers le bricolage et le grotesque\, terme stylistique provenant du mot
  latin grotto (grotte). Les grottes originales étaient en fait constituées 
 de pièces et de corridors se trouvant dans la Domus aurea (ou Maison dorée)
 \, un palais construit par l’empereur Néron\, commencé en l’an 64. Le palai
 s ne fut jamais terminé\, puisqu’il fut enterré après la mort de son créate
 ur et oublié pendant quinze siècles avant d’être redécouvert. Les murs des 
 salles étaient décorés d’un entrelacement d’images hybrides de plantes\, d’
 animaux\, d’humains et de minéraux. Une des approches de Roy est de parcour
 ir la littérature et l’imagerie trouvées afin de dévoiler et reconstruire l
 e biologique et le naturel à des fins politiques. Les oeuvres de Roy parlen
 t des désirs et des traumatismes refoulés qui trouvent toujours le moyen de
  ressurgir\, tout comme la «nature» trouve le moyen de se réaffirmer malgré
  l’emprise humaine et culturelle.</p><p>À La Centrale\, Roy présente une an
 imation de 56 minutes\, intitulée Apartment\, dont la structure s’inspire d
 u roman de Georges Perec\, La vie: mode d’emploi (1978). Dans ce roman\, l’
 auteur transporte le lecteur à travers cent pièces d’un immeuble résidentie
 l\, suivant les mouvements d’un chevalier pendant une partie d’échec. Dans 
 la vidéo de Roy\, des plantes et animaux sauvages prennent lentement le con
 trôle de chambres délabrées pendant que les résidents succombent graduellem
 ent à un mystérieux virus. L’oeuvre imagine un scénario posthumaniste pour 
 un espace posthistorique hétérotope. Seront aussi exposées les impressions 
 typographiques Kings and Creatures . Celles-ci utilisent divers mécanismes 
 textuels formels afin de livrer des mots\, expressions et citations faisant
  référence à la relation entre la vie des créatures et le pouvoir souverain
 .</p><p>Marina Roy est une artiste de Vancouver travaillant avec une divers
 ité de médiums\, dont le dessin\, la peinture\, la vidéo\, l’animation\, la
  sculpture et l’écriture. Elle a exposé au Canada\, aux États-Unis\, au Roy
 aume-Uni\, en Europe et en Inde. Utilisant des matériaux à l’état brut ains
 i que des images et textes trouvés\, son travail tente de créer une allégor
 ie visuelle du langage qui révèle\, à son tour\, les structures idéologique
 s qui nous unissent. En 2010\, elle fut récipiendaire du prix VIVA\, le plu
 s important prix en arts visuels en Colombie-Britannique. En 2001\, elle a 
 publié sign after the x (Artspeak/Arsenal Pulp)\, une publication encyclopé
 dique portant sur la lettre X et ses multiples significations dans la cultu
 re occidentale. Ce projet fut aussi traduit sous forme de site web interact
 if en 2010\, en collaboration avec David Clark et Graham Meisner (signafter

 e)Gap: International Indigenous art in motion is a major international Indi

 stival (BAFF) in partnership with the Samstag Museum of Art\, University of
  South Australia. The exhibition is a highlight of the Festival’s Art and T
 he Moving Image strand celebrating the moving image in visual art. Stop(the
 )Gap: International Indigenous art in motion is an ambitious and highly inn
 ovative exhibition program\, bringing together moving image works by intern
 ationally acclaimed Indigenous artists from Australia\, Canada\, Aotearoa/N
 ew Zealand and the USA. The project has been put together by Brenda L Croft
 \, one of Australia’s most esteemed Indigenous curators\, who has selected 
 works challenging preconceptions of contemporary Indigenous expression and 
 addressing themes of human rights\, environmental concerns\, cultural secur
 ity\, and negotiating diversity.</p><p>Ms Croft said “Some of the most prov
 ocative and illuminating moving image work today is being created by Indige
 nous new media artists – yet there has been no international focus on this 
 work until now. Despite physical distances\, Indigenous communities around 
 the globe are linked through their shared colonial histories\, each bearing
  scars borne of dispossession\, injustice\, inequality\, and misrepresentat
 ion.”</p><p>The project explores the fertile ground between cinema and the 
 visual arts\, and will feature moving image exhibitions\, film screenings\,
  outdoor projections and discussions to be presented across various Adelaid
 e venues.</p><p>“The development and presentation of a major Indigenous new
  media exhibition is very timely\,” said Erica Green\, Director of the Sams
 tag Museum of Art. “It contributes powerfully to the 2011 BigPond Adelaide 
 Film Festival program while building dynamically - and with cultural/critic
 al relevance - on the very successful 2009 exhibition Lynette Wallworth: Du
 ality of Light which was also presented by the Samstag Museum of Art in par
 tnership with BAFF.”</p><p>International award winning filmmaker Warwick Th
 ornton (Australia) has been commissioned through the Adelaide Film Festival
  Investment Fund to create a new work for this project. Thornton’s short fi
 lm Nana was featured at the 2010 Adelaide Biennial and his 2009 feature Sam
 son and Delilah\, which premiered at BAFF in 2009\, gathered a swag of inte
 rnational awards including the Camera d’or at Cannes. Other participating a
 rtists include Alan Michelson (USA)\, whose work is held in the permanent c
 ollections of several institutions\, including the National Gallery of Cana
 da and the Smithsonian\; Rebecca Belmore (Canada)\, Canada’s official repre
 sentative at the 2005 Venice Biennale\; Lisa Reihana (Aotearoa /NZ)\, whose
  work has exhibited internationally at Brooklyn Art Museum and the Art Gall

 deo work has been screened at the Sundance Film Festival\, 2010 Biennale of
  Sydney and Microwave in Hong Kong. These artists will be joined by Austral
 ian artists rea and Genevieve Grieves who will screen their work outdoors a
 t Port Adelaide’s historic Harts Mill.</p><p><em>The Stop(the)Gap program b
 roadens out to include a program of significant films that relate to the re
 presentation of Aboriginal people in film since the mid 1950s to 2011\, inc

 011.</h4><p><strong>Effects/Causes</strong></p><p>"The question is no longe
 r what or how but why. Why Paint?</p><p>The study and teaching of painting 
 holds a central place in art instruction in art departments and schools. It
  is often the first practice we think of when we think of visual art and it
  has a vast array of techniques and philosophies. The history of Art someti
 mes reads as the history of painting and the history of ideas seem reflecte
 d in the canvases of each era.</p><p>But in our era\, the success of the av
 ant-garde strategies of questioning the conventions of art practice plus te
 chnological and material development have expanded the field of creative en
 deavour and art practice. It has opened up the possibilities of the creativ
 e process\, and has expanded to include an almost infinite variety and mean
 s of practicing art. Art no longer can be or will be dominated by a medium 
 in the way painting has been dominant in the discourse of art. We can do an
 ything. So why paint?</p><p>It is an important question and a daunting one 
 but a question being asked and answered by the students in this exhibition.
  Success\, failure\, ambiguity\, possibility\, certainly some certainty and
  some uncertainty\, perhaps some answers\, perhaps some directions\, nevert
 heless painting."</p><p>- <a href="https://ahva2016.sites.olt.ubc.ca/person
 s/phillip-mccrum/">Phillip McCrum</a></p><p>"The 3rd year painting classes 
 seek to place the student at the centre of a practical studio experience\, 
 while examining the context of contemporary art practice in relation to per
 sonal concerns\, diverse cultures and globalization.</p><p>Students are exp
 ected to use a wide range of materials and media. Technical considerations 
 and the formal devices of composition are combined with ideas to give the p
 aintings personal expression and meaning.</p><p>Their projects focus on the
  development of personal style\, ideas\, and technical and conceptual skill
 s through the exploration of the abstract to the allegorical.  Students are
  encouraged to explore the meaning of their own work effectively and intell
 igently."</p><p>- <a href="https://ahva2016.sites.olt.ubc.ca/persons/xiong-

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>An Artist Talk by Michael Krebber</h4><p>
 <strong>Michael Krebber</strong> is a Cologne-based German artist whose pra
 ctice incorporates painting\, drawing\, installation\, critical writing and
  bookmaking. He has taught a painting class at the Städelschule in Frankfur
 t since 2002. His critical writing has been published in <em>Texte zur Kuns
 t</em> and <em>Artforum</em>.</p><blockquote><p>“For several decades Krebbe
 r has investigated painterly issues\, but his praxis is far from the bravur
 a and self-assurance that formalist painting has traditionally represented.
  Instead of attacking – with full force\, so to speak – selected painterly 
 issues\, Krebber takes a far more subtle\, careful approach where strategie
 s like deferral\, hesitation and even artistic failure are applied. Through
 out his highly influential career Krebber has maintained a relatively limit
 ed production and has constantly avoided pigeonholing within a particular s
 tyle or mode of production. His whole oeuvre takes the form of a long succe
 ssion of digressions or evasive actions\, where the lack of focus and stabi
 lity may seem to be the only unifying criterion one can find.</p><p>The sel
 f-reflexivity we are talking about here is of course something quite differ
 ent from the modernist medium-specificity where the painting became self-re
 flexive in the light of a particular view of what were and what were not th
 e medium’s own defining qualities. On the contrary\, Krebber’s art is perha
 ps the best example of how painting is woven into an intricate system of ex
 ternal references. In most cases these references are not directly apparent
  in the works themselves.”</p><p><em>— Excerpt from Gambaroff\, Krebber\, Q
 uaytman\, Rayne\, Bergen Kunsthall 2010.</em></p></blockquote><p>As part of
  the Distinguished Visiting Artist Program at UBC’s Department of Art Histo
 ry\, Visual Art and Theory\, Krebber will talk about or around concepts con
 cerning the dandy in relation to representations of painting.</p><p>Michael
  Krebber was born in Cologne and currently lives in Cologne and Frankfurt.

 ong>Hippie Chick</strong> by <strong>Dana Claxton</strong> launches April 1
 8th on YouTube and on the Canada Line subway system video screens April 18 
 to April 30. <strong>Hippie Chick</strong> celebrates Vancouver's history o
 f counter-culture using archival footage from the first Easter Be-In held i
 llegally in Stanley Park in 1967\, when a large number of hippies and suppo
 rters defiantly gathered and claimed public space.</p><p>The human "be-ins"
  were gatherings of hippies\, a vocal and growing subculture of baby boomer
 s rejecting the conservative values of the status quo. Hippies were seeking
  out new and alternative lifestyles that were anti-war and anti-establishme
 nt. Claxton has reworked the footage to suggest that one of the streams in 
 the hippie movement's demand for social change was manifested through creat
 ive expression and collective dance. The female body is self-realized throu
 gh the right to dance freely.</p><p>We are ecstatic to launch <strong>10 Se
 conds</strong>\, a yearlong series celebrating Vancouver 125 with this homa
 ge to the rebels of the Summer of Love. The be-in was the precursor to toda
 y's flashmob\; many aspects of hippie culture have been assimilated by cont
 emporary mainstream society. Claxton focuses on the undulating movements of
  a hippie chick with long flowing hair. The black/white film unearthed from
  the CBC archives was shot by Stan Fox.</p><p><strong>Dana Claxton</strong>
  is an interdisciplinary artist creating works in film\, video\, photograph
 y\, installation and performance that has garnered international recognitio
 n. She is represented by the Winsor Gallery\, Vancouver. She is also active
  as a curator and she teaches Advanced Digital Arts and Performance Art at 
 UBC. <a href="http://www.danaclaxton.com/">www.danaclaxton.com</a></p><p><s

 al Research</strong> is a presentation of work made during the Rehearsal Re
 search residency\, an interdisciplinary visual art and dance residency that
  took place in the summer of 2010. Paul Kajander\, Justine Chambers and Hol
 ly Ward will present research and work-in-progress that came out of the Reh
 earsal Research production residency.</p><p>The intention of the Rehearsal 
 Research residency was to investigate historical and current connections be
 tween avant garde art practice and modern dance practice. Stemming from res
 earch into the importance of dance and dancers in the development of artist
  run culture locally\, Rehearsal Research raises questions about contempora
 ry relationships between dance\, choreography and visual art practice. With
  the support of The Dance Centre and Western Front\, each artist conducted 
 research\, and used production and performance facilities towards the creat
 ion of a new work.</p><p><strong>Paul Kajander</strong> worked within the s
 pace of The Dance Centre\, using the studio spaces to produce several movem
 ent studies on video\, and one single channel video work titled What Self-K
 nowledge Is \, investigates the relationship between narrative and movement
 \, using an ensemble cast of actors and dancers. Justine Chambers worked ou
 t of Western Front’s Grande Luxe Hall to develop choreography around a seri
 es of free standing sculptural structures\, tentatively titled Enters and E
 xits.  Emerging from an interest in quotidian movement and human gesture\, 
 Chambers’ sculptural apparatus - shaped like a series of doorframes – suppo
 rts a developing choreographic study of how we perform in “non places” or “
 in-between” space. Holly Ward worked at the Dance Centre to produce researc
 h around the Loheland colony\, a communal education institution for women\,
  established in 1919\, whose activities ranged from training girls to becom
 e physical education instructors to breeding championship Great Danes. Ward
  worked with a choreographer and a Great Dane to produce photographic and v
 ideo movement studies\, based around the utopian mythologies of a the Lohel
 and Colony of women.</p><p>The research and work-in-progress from the Rehea
 rsal Research residency will be presented in the Grand Luxe Hall from April
  19- April 28\, accompanied by an essay about the project by <strong>Sarah 
 Todd</strong>.  A closing reception and live performance by Justine Chamber
 s will take place on the evening of April 28.</p><p><em>With the support of

 n featuring the University of British Columbia’s 2011 graduating BFA/BA Vis
 ual Art students’ current work. The exhibition showcases these students’ co
 mmitment to art practice and diverse critical thinking which are essential 
 to today’s contemporary art. Individual artistic practice involves strategi
 es to combat all kinds of orthodoxies\, classifications or chauvinisms of t
 he mind. Through variations of everyday imagery or language\, artists creat
 e their own space within larger social and cultural discourses. The union o
 f theory and practice engenders art which surpasses the boundaries of its o
 rigins. Within a global cultural context\, the vocabulary of contemporary a
 rt does not arise from one culture or homogenous source\; it springs from a
  myriad of sources that produce meaning in art.</p><p>I would like to thank
  Deana Holmes\, the Fourth Year Graduation Exhibition Student Committee\, P
 hillip McCrum\, and the fourth-year studio faculty members for coordinating
  the exhibition and catalogue. I am especially grateful to Athena Papadopou
 los\, Claire Sproule\, and Karen Tennant for their hard work on our success

 30pm.</p><p>The AHVA Library Gallery at the University of British Columbia 
 is pleased to present Marijke Nap\, Life Works\, an exhibition celebrating 
 the work and talent of late artist\, Marijke Nap. Please join us on Wednesd
 ay May 11th\, from 4:30-7:30pm for an opening reception with remarks beginn

 dnesday to Saturday from 12-4pm.</p><p><strong>Marijke Nap</strong> was bor
 n in Brazil in 1965\, she was the fourth girl in a large family that moved 
 to the Netherlands in 1976\, and then to Canada in 1978.  Marijke was inspi
 red and affected by the events and environment of her childhood in Brazil\,
  and this is apparent in her work: carnival costumes to carnivalesque monke
 ys\, oleander trees\, and the birds of Sabará\, Minas Gerais.  With a great
  drive to learn about her culture\, in her early adulthood she spent a few 
 years in Holland.  She spoke many languages\, including Dutch\, Portuguese 
 and Spanish.</p><p>She attended the studio art program at Vancouver College
  and Capilano University in Vancouver. Marijke was always a great advocate 
 and contributor to the Printmaking community of Vancouver. She helped in fo
 unding the New Leaf Editions International Miniature Print Exhibition with 
 Debra Dedyluk and Peter Braune\, she also worked with Katie Dey at New Leaf
  Editions\, forming many friendships along the way. Marijke worked as a pri
 ntmaking technician at Capilano College\, and then became the printmaking t
 echnician at the University of British Columbia\, in the Department of Art 
 History\, Visual Art and Theory for the last 9 years\, where she inventivel
 y assisted several generations of students.  She also served on the board o
 f Directors at Malaspina Printmakers Society and Dundarave Print Workshop\,
  both on Granville Island in Vancouver. As well as working on her own vast 
 independent practice\, Marijke collaborated with many people\, including Ge
 rri York\, Katie Dey and Mikolaj Smolinski.  She exhibited in many venues a
 cross Canada\, and recently completed a residency at Ytrecht in Holland\, t
 he show traveled to many international cities.</p><p>This exhibition brings
  together a large collection of work from Nap’s oeuvre\, evidencing both th
 e depth of her explorations and her whimsical nature.  Throughout the exhib
 ition\, one is witness to how Marijke Nap “performed” via the mediums of pr
 int\, drawing and collage\, displaying the many facets of her person and th
 e many sources that inspired the complex narratives she constructed. Her pr
 actice reveals the process of working through a variety of materials and te
 chniques\, from traditional etching\, screen printing\, lithography\, photo
 graphy and digital applications.  She experimented widely on print matrixes
  and paper\, with objects\, and often added textural elements using cloth\,
  collage\, flocking\, and even substances such as pollen or sugar. Personal
  experience and memory were the take-off points for many of her works\, dea
 ling with imagery from her past\, her environment\, her political convictio
 ns\, and from her dreams.  Through a multiplicity of forms and symbols\, he
 r work divulges social commentary or political agenda. The themes of her wo
 rk are varied\, sometimes deeply psychological and mysterious\, and at othe
 r times absurd\, but always with a distinctively whimsical sensibility.  Mu
 ch like herself\, her work was multi-faceted\, and each artwork offers a un
 ique and stimulating expression of her worldview for someone to connect to.
 </p><p>Marijke was well known for her incredible vegetarian cooking and her
  green thumb.  She found pleasure in gardening\, and was instrumental in ma
 intaining and setting up community gardens in the city—including the one sh
 e belonged to—where she nurtured organic vegetables to their full potential
 .</p><p>This exhibition is made possible by the Department of Art History\,
  Visual Art and Theory at the University of British Columbia and the suppor
 t of Catherine Soussloff. Thank you to Barbara Ziegler\, Mikolaj Smolinski\
 , Marina Roy\, Barrie Jones and Andrea Tuele\, and a special thank you to t
 he Nap family for all of their assistance.</p><p>- <a href="https://ahva201

 ork)\, Oscar Tuazon (Paris)</p><p>Presenting the work of eleven artists and
  collaborators\, this exhibition refuses to deliver. It offers artworks sen
 t via national postal systems addressed to the gallery as "Poste Restante".
  Typically relied upon by travelers and lovers\, "Poste Restante" is a requ
 est for a post office to hold a letter or package until picked up by its re
 cipient. The works are exhibited as received\, in unopened envelopes or par
 cels\, accompanied by any paperwork generated during transit\, including cu
 stoms forms\, bills of lading\, and pro forma invoices. Delivery is deferre
 d as the packages wait\, held by the gallery for a recipient whose identity
  is unknown.</p><p>Objects are shaped by various encounters with systems of
  commerce\, information\, publicity and transportation. Stubbornly resistan
 t to dematerialization\, the art object remains local\, specific and visibl
 e only in certain spaces\, while operating in far-flung networks\, both phy
 sical and immaterial. Guarantors of the exhibition as an exhibition\, the a
 rt objects in Poste Restante serve as ground for exchanges of immaterial se
 rvices\, writings\, and conversations. Through the suspension of delivery w
 e remove the object-in-itself from scrutiny and see in clearer relief the s
 ystems the object both calls to life and circulates within.</p><p>The exhib
 ition will travel to further destinations\, including both commercial galle
 ries and non-profit spaces\, marking out a geographical network of communic
 ation and interests analogous to those of the participating artists and org
 anizations. Parallel events\, including talks\, performances\, and publicat
 ions\, will accompany the exhibition at each location.</p><p><em>Image: Pos

 <strong>Location:</strong> Witte de With\, Center for Contemporary Art\, Wi
 tte de Withstraat 50\, 3012 BR Rotterdam</p><h4>Group exhibition with Anton
 io (Tonel) Fernandez. To August 7\, 2011.</h4><p><strong>Opening: Saturday 
 21 May 2011 (6 - 9 pm)<br /></strong>Performance by Goldin+Senneby at 7 pm<
 /p><p>Film Screening: Sunday 26 June 2011 (12 – 6 pm)</p><p><strong>The End
  of Money</strong> is a group exhibition about time and value. Bringing tog
 ether works by a host of international artists\, this exhibition and its pa
 rallel publication reflect upon the fears\, hopes\, and expectations associ
 ated with the end of money and its ominous consequence: the dissolution of 
 an absolute standard of value.</p><p>What limits does the economy impose on
  our collective imagination\, and how is the collective imagination respons
 ible for the current economy? The End of Money focuses on the multiple rela
 tionships that could and those that should exist between culture and econom
 y. Informing this curatorial project is the utopian notion that\, in a worl
 d where money has been factored out of the collective memory\, other suppre
 ssed forms of value may emerge leading to another social bond and a differe
 nt relationship to time.</p><p>Time\, Benjamin Franklin famously said\, is 
 money. In Marshall McLuhan’s formulation of this statement\, money is “stor
 ed time”. With this variation\, McLuhan meant to suggest that with the cloc
 king of labor\, a practice whose origins lie with the Industrial Revolution
 \, time becomes the meta-commodity\, that which is ultimately and essential
 ly being traded in money. The time of work\; but not necessarily – as Frank
 lin would have it – the time of the worker.</p><p>The works included in The
  End of Money range from reflections on the arbitrary ways in which value i
 s ascribed to things\, as in Zachary Formwalt’s video At Face Value (2008)\
 , in which a stamp collection is taken as an occasion to explore the histor
 ical valuation of stamps as currency\; to explorations of the absolute loss
  of representative value\, as in Christodoulos Panayiotou’s 2008 (2008)\, a
  monumental pile of shredded Greek Cypriot Pounds\, the totality of which t
 he artist was able to acquire when Greek Cyprus adopted the Euro. Other wor
 ks highlight time\, which is a persistent corollary of money in our efficie
 ncy-obsessed culture: Maha Maamoun’s short video 2026 (2010)\, explores the
  limits of the temporal imagination\, revealing how the image of the future
  is foreclosed by the mind’s over-identification with the present\; or Tori
 l Johannessen’s graphs\, which quantify the relationship between time and h
 istory and as such attempt to de-naturalize our conceptions of it. There is
  also Fischli & Weiss’ Sichtbare Welt (1987-2000)\, a series of photographs
  taken by the artists all over the world\, critically evoking a parallel be
 tween systems of valuation and modes of representation.</p><p>Artists<br />

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Curated by Toby Lawrence. Exhibition runs
  to October 14th.</h4><p>Working with the permanent art installation in the
  Irving K. Barber Learning Centre's Ridington Room\, The <strong>Pose Stand
 s for Potentiality</strong> juxtaposes the University of British Columbia's
  formal presidential portraits with a series of small works from Vancouver-
 based artist <strong>Jordy Hamilton</strong>. This collection\, 96 Studies 
 for a Painting\, developed out of an interest in intuitive processes and in
  the extension of leftovers from studio practices and failed attempts. Begi
 nning with a practical desire to create an abstract painting\, the works un
 intentionally return to the figural image. Hamilton's initial desire has re
 sulted in a continuing serial practice of fragmenting and extending this fi
 gural abstraction\, wherein each small painting\, built on prior failures\,
  retains a prevailing sense of mutability. Moreover\, Hamilton's abstracted
  representations instigate conversation between contemporary and traditiona
 l forms of painting.</p><p>By contrasting the hierarchical position of the 
 presidential portraiture\, the juxtaposition becomes emphatic of the proces
 s of both individual and artistic achievement. The Pose Stands for Potentia
 lity considers the multiplicity of figural constructions and further highli
 ghts a practice that embodies a state of flux through a plurality of positi
 ons and continuous development.</p>

 temporary Art Gallery\, Vancouver<br />Saturday\, September 10\, 12-5 pm</p
 ><p>The Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery is pleased to present <strong>H
 appy</strong>\, an exhibition of work by the 2011 graduates of the Universi
 ty of British Columbia’s two-year Masters of Fine Arts program. The work of
  these seven emerging artists explores various themes that intersect with o
 ne another at many points\, questioning the dualities of art and everyday l
 ife\; object and representation\; real and virtual space. The time-based as
 pect of artistic practice is considered in relation to labour and as a coll
 aborative process. The focus on temporality leads to questions of what is e
 mergent in artistic practice\, how the present is experienced in the consci
 ence and envisions anxieties surrounding the future.</p><p><strong>Joe Béru
 bé</strong> uses painting\, installation and video to explore spatial compl
 exities and the potentials of perception. The imagined or virtual and the r
 eal coexist in a space of explicit contradiction\, whether in landscape (su
 ch as with the phenomenon of the mirage or phantom island) or in social rel
 ationships (as in the distance between intention and perception)\, which he
  explores in his work.</p><p><strong>Marilyne Blais</strong> is interested 
 in artistic practices that are engaged with collectivity and material exper
 imentation\, and how these aspects are experienced in the present. She inve
 stigates the notion of ‘making’ as open-ended and unfinished in sculptural 
 works that are collaborative and processual in nature.</p><p>Questions surr
 ounding the words ‘work’ and ‘labour’ are central to <strong>Jordy Hamilton
 ’s</strong> thinking about art. Working intuitively from the embedded histo
 ries and formal properties of found paintings\, Hamilton employs Giorgio Ag
 amben’s concepts of praxis (an action engaged with political structures and
  ideas of productivity) and poesis (an engagement with the flux of time tha
 t allows for emergent social possibilities) by re-stretching and repainting
  the canvases.</p><p>As an artist and immigrant from China to Canada\, <str
 ong>Chunping Huang</strong> is interested in how notions of cultural identi
 ty are constructed\, interrogated and represented in the visual arts. Huang
  uses the medium of video to examine multiple subjectivities\, allowing for
  images across time and space. She considers life to be the stage of everyd
 ay performances and examines situations where boundaries of identity are cr
 ossed.</p><p><strong>Nick Lakowski’s</strong> figurative sculptures are dri
 ven by anxieties around surveillance\, resuscitation\, immortality\, medici
 ne and bio-power. Disease\, sexuality\, pornography and the un-dead are use
 d as tropes for the understanding of control\, technological progress\, rep
 roduction and mortality. These themes are set into play with dystopic and h
 ysterical futures to create disturbing\, comical and misanthropic fictions.
 </p><p><strong>Joomi Seo</strong> finds it relevant to draw attention to th
 e permeation of visual culture and the tendency toward democratization in c
 ontemporary art. Following Allan Kaprow’s assertion that the distinctions b
 etween art and non-art are ‘pseudo-distinctions\,’ and how the ‘found objec
 t’ implies various aspects of everyday life\, Seo’s on-going projects (incl
 uding graphic notations\, experimental sound performances\, YouTube tutoria
 l series\, and installation) blur the boundary between art and life.</p><p>
 <strong>Damla Tamer’s</strong> practice has developed around storytelling a
 nd anecdotes\, investigating notions of memory and truth. Tamer is interest
 ed how the memory and recital of past events generates new narratives. By c
 ombining drawings with her anecdotes\, Tamer’s work explores the possible c
 onnections that an image can have with an event\, allowing for a playful an
 d open relationship between the two.</p><p><em>The exhibition is presented 
 with support from the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at 
 the University of British Columbia.</em></p><p><em>For further information

 Gallery\, is honoured to present internationally acclaimed artist\, Gu Xion
 g's mixed-media installation entitled\, Waterscapes: Migration along the Va
 ncouver Island\, Fraser and Yangzi Rivers from September 9\, 2011 - January
  7\, 2012</p><p>This installation will reference the Fraser and Yangtze Riv
 ers as a personal metaphor for migration and the formation of self-identity
 . Drawn out of his own experience as a migrant to Canada from China\, the w
 ork also builds on his current research with individuals living and working
  on the rivers' banks. Gu Xiong considers the history of each river as a ro
 ute for colonization\, migration\, and movements toward global uncertainty.
  The installation is comprised of photographs\, an imaginary map\, and a me
 taphorical river of over 1500 small white boats that flows from outside to 
 inside the museum space.</p><p>Xiong poses the question\, "How can differen
 t cultures intertwine through personal journeys\, and move together into a 
 new space?"</p><p><strong>Gu Xiong</strong>\, a multi-media artist from Chi
 na now lives in Canada\, works with painting\, drawing\, printmaking\, scul
 pture\, photography\, video\, digital imagery\, text\, performance art and 
 installation.</p><p>Xiong received his BFA and MFA degrees from the Sichuan
  Fine Arts Institute in Chongqing\, China. In Canada\, he twice attended th
 e Banff Centre for the Arts as artist-in-residence\, and in addition to man
 y other colleges and universities in Canada\, the United States and China. 
 He has served on Canada Council\, the Governor General Awards Jury for Visu
 al Arts\, Media Art and Architecture\, Canada Council Visual Art Grant Jury
 \, Seattle Arts Commission Jury\, BC Arts Council Jury\, and Vancouver Foun
 dation Jury. As Associate Professor in the Department of Art History\, Visu
 al Art\, and Theory at the University of British Columbia\, Gu Xiong is eng
 aged in the disciplines of installation\, painting\, drawing\, photography 
 and contemporary art theory.</p><p>He has exhibited nationally and internat
 ionally including more than 40 solo exhibitions and three public art commis
 sions. He has participated in over 80 prominent national and international 
 group exhibitions including Border Zones: New Art Across Cultures\, (Museum
  of Anthropology\, Vancouver\, 2010)\; Art Is Nothing - 798 Art Festival (B
 eijing\, China)\; Post Avant-grade Chinese Contemporary Art - Four Directio
 ns of the New Era (Hong Kong\, 2007. His work is represented in the collect
 ions of the National Gallery of Canada\, the China National Museum of Fine 
 Arts\, and the Vancouver Art Gallery\, among many other museums and private
  collections.</p><p>Xiong has done three large public art projects in Canad
 a and United States\, such as the Safeco Field\, Washington State Major Lea
 gue Baseball Stadium\, Seattle and the Seattle Public Library Columbia City
  Branch\, Seattle\, WA\, USA\; the MacDonald Stewart Art Centre Donald Fors
 ter Sculpture Park\, University of Guelph\, ON\, Canada.</p><p>Xiong has pu
 blished two books and ten solo exhibition catalogues. His writing and art w
 orks are published in art catalogues\, magazines and newspapers. His art wo
 rk has received significant critical recognition including reviews in the i
 nternational art magazines\, Flash Art and Art in America\, and The New Yor
 k Times. The documentary "The Yellow Pear: The Story of Gu Xiong" from the 
 series A Scattering of Seeds: The Creation of Canada was broadcast on The H
 istory Channel in March\, 2001. In the capacity of curator\, Xiong has orga
 nized critically-acclaimed exhibitions of work by emerging artists in Canad
 a and China.</p><p>Xiong's practice centers on the creation of a hybrid ide
 ntity arising from the integration of different cultural origins. Through t
 he critical angle of visual art\, his work encompasses sociology\, geograph
 y\, economics\, politics\, and literature\, as well as the dynamics of glob
 alization\, local culture and identity politics\, through which he constitu
 tes an amalgamation of multiple cultural histories and seeks to create an e
 ntirely new identity. The construction of a new level of being is Gu Xiong'
 s primary interest.</p><p>The exhibition opening is sponsored by Vancouver 
 Island University Faculty of International Education. Many THANKS for their
  sponsorship!<br /><a href="http://www.nanaimoartgallery.com" target="blank

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Held in conjunction with the exhib
 ition Luis Camnitzer at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, Universit
 y of British Columbia.</strong></p><p>Traditionally\, the museum as an inst
 itution has been devoted to a stable public. Conceived in order to exhibit 
 the collections of individual donors and nation states to a sympathetic and
  stationary audience\, the space of the museum was hermetic by design. Rece
 nt shifts in the international socio-economic landscape\, however\, have br
 ought the very category of the “public” into question. As the speed and flu
 idity of economic\, intellectual and political exchange increases powered b
 y the motor of globalization\, the stability of a singular public has given
  way to the proliferation of porous publics\, calling for a reassessment of
  the status of the contemporary museum as such. <strong>The Future of the C
 ontemporary</strong>\, hosted by the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, 
 will contribute to this reassessment.</p><p>Featuring lectures by a disting
 uished panel of critics\, artists and curators from North America and South
  America\, Europe\, Africa and India\, the symposium will ask what obligati
 ons the contemporary museum should address when confronted by the porous pu
 blics that populate the rich and often fraught space of the “global village
 .” Some past examples of representation of non western cultures in museums 
 will be discussed. In addition to considering specific programming policies
  and exhibition strategies\, the symposium will (re)conceptualize the museu
 m more broadly. Speakers will ask how the waning of the permanent collectio
 n as a curatorial resource\, the rise of online cataloguing\, and the proli
 feration of satellite galleries\, trans-national institutional partnerships
  and off-site exhibiting have influenced the cultural presence of the art m
 useum as such. Symptoms of globalization\, these developments in museologic
 al infrastructure have been seen by many as offering new opportunities to m
 ore accurately reflect the diverse and rapidly changing climate in which th
 e contemporary museum is located. Others have regarded these developments a
 s evidence of a willing complicity in commodity exchange and a concession o
 f the contemporary museum’s critical distance. Practices of canon formation
 \, curation and archiving will be discussed as possible components of an ex
 panded 21st-century museology which might engage with and intervene in proc
 esses of globalization while maintaining the museum’s status as what Michel
  Foucault called a “heterotopia”\, a space distinct from and unlike its obj
 ect of analysis from which we can ask these questions.</p><p>List of Speake

 o present Raymond Boisjoly\, Jordy Hamilton\, Laura Piasta: Studies in Deca
 y\, a group exhibition curated by <strong>Jonah Gray</strong>.</p><p>The da
 rk overtones in both the subject matter and colour palette of the artworks 
 in this exhibition are the effects of a kind of realism that is more concer
 ned with conveying the realities of contemporary experience than with natur
 alistic depiction. However\, the gloomy image of history these works regist
 er—one of violence and repetition with few prospects for change—never slips
  into pessimism. Instead\, they draw their force from seeking to split the 
 difference between affirming the possibilities of contemporary experience a
 nd calling attention to its frequently disastrous outcomes.</p><p>Vancouver
 -based artist <strong>Raymond Boisjoly’s</strong> recent series of images\,
  collectively titled The Writing Lesson\, uses visual conventions associate
 d with black metal music to create logos for indigenous place names such as
  Chilliwack\, Massett and Nanaimo. Boisjoly lays out these Anglicized words
  with dripping\, thorny embellishments and what he calls a “forced symmetry
 .” Like the band wordmarks to which they refer\, Boisjoly’s decrepit tangle
 s of letters often verge on illegibility. This iteration of Boisjoly’s ongo
 ing project will be the largest yet\, printed on a tarp\, and taking its sh
 ape from the name Spuzzum\, an unincorporated settlement north of Hope\, BC
 .</p><p><strong>Jordy Hamilton</strong>\, an Ontario-born Vancouver-based a
 rtist\, will exhibit a collection of appropriated images\, including a pair
  of videos and a series of 4 × 6 inch photographic prints. These documents 
 record instances of an event held at the artist’s family home in conjunctio
 n with an annual barbecue and trap shooting competition. Each year\, the as
 sembled picnickers would take aim at a beat up old motorcycle\, propped in 
 a field with its motor running\, and shoot it until it burst into flames. T
 he photographs are vintage prints that sequentially depict a motorcycle cat
 ching fire\; the videos are digital transfers from cassette that reveal the
  degraded image quality of the originals.</p><p><strong>Laura Piasta</stron
 g> is a Vancouver-born artist currently based in Umeå\, Sweden. Her sculptu
 re\, Crystallized Jean Jacket\, consists of a denim jacket\, hardened from 
 having been soaked in saltwater and hung to dry\, a process that leaves a d
 elicate crystalline patterning all over the fabric. Pinned to the wall\, th
 e jacket’s slumping shape has a pathetic anthropomorphism\, but also evokes
  the conspicuous absence of the body or bodies it might formerly have cloth
 ed.</p><p>Walter Benjamin held that the world continually tends towards dec
 ay. In the spirit of his inquiry into this process\, each of these works of
 fers a meditation on decay\, while simultaneously seeking to uncover the tr
 ansformative potential hidden within the patterns of everyday life.</p><p>T
 his exhibition was made possible through support from the Killy Foundation 
 and the Audain Endowment for Curatorial Studies through the Department of A
 rt History\, Visual Art and Theory in collaboration with the Morris and Hel
 en Belkin Art Gallery at The University of British Columbia.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>October 29 — December 10\, 2011. Opening 
 Friday\, October 28\, 8PM. Curated by Jonah Gray.</h4><p>Or Gallery is plea
 sed to present Raymond Boisjoly\, Jordy Hamilton\, Laura Piasta: Studies in
  Decay\, a group exhibition curated by <strong>Jonah Gray</strong>.</p><p>T
 he dark overtones in both the subject matter and colour palette of the artw
 orks in this exhibition are the effects of a kind of realism that is more c
 oncerned with conveying the realities of contemporary experience than with 
 naturalistic depiction. However\, the gloomy image of history these works r
 egister—one of violence and repetition with few prospects for change—never 
 slips into pessimism. Instead\, they draw their force from seeking to split
  the difference between affirming the possibilities of contemporary experie
 nce and calling attention to its frequently disastrous outcomes.</p><p>Vanc
 ouver-based artist <strong>Raymond Boisjoly’s</strong> recent series of ima
 ges\, collectively titled The Writing Lesson\, uses visual conventions asso
 ciated with black metal music to create logos for indigenous place names su
 ch as Chilliwack\, Massett and Nanaimo. Boisjoly lays out these Anglicized 
 words with dripping\, thorny embellishments and what he calls a “forced sym
 metry.” Like the band wordmarks to which they refer\, Boisjoly’s decrepit t
 angles of letters often verge on illegibility. This iteration of Boisjoly’s
  ongoing project will be the largest yet\, printed on a tarp\, and taking i
 ts shape from the name Spuzzum\, an unincorporated settlement north of Hope
 \, BC.</p><p><strong>Jordy Hamilton</strong>\, an Ontario-born Vancouver-ba
 sed artist\, will exhibit a collection of appropriated images\, including a
  pair of videos and a series of 4 × 6 inch photographic prints. These docum
 ents record instances of an event held at the artist’s family home in conju
 nction with an annual barbecue and trap shooting competition. Each year\, t
 he assembled picnickers would take aim at a beat up old motorcycle\, proppe
 d in a field with its motor running\, and shoot it until it burst into flam
 es. The photographs are vintage prints that sequentially depict a motorcycl
 e catching fire\; the videos are digital transfers from cassette that revea
 l the degraded image quality of the originals.</p><p><strong>Laura Piasta</
 strong> is a Vancouver-born artist currently based in Umeå\, Sweden. Her sc
 ulpture\, Crystallized Jean Jacket\, consists of a denim jacket\, hardened 
 from having been soaked in saltwater and hung to dry\, a process that leave
 s a delicate crystalline patterning all over the fabric. Pinned to the wall
 \, the jacket’s slumping shape has a pathetic anthropomorphism\, but also e
 vokes the conspicuous absence of the body or bodies it might formerly have 
 clothed.</p><p>Walter Benjamin held that the world continually tends toward
 s decay. In the spirit of his inquiry into this process\, each of these wor
 ks offers a meditation on decay\, while simultaneously seeking to uncover t
 he transformative potential hidden within the patterns of everyday life.</p
 ><p>This exhibition was made possible through support from the Killy Founda
 tion and the Audain Endowment for Curatorial Studies through the Department
  of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory in collaboration with the Morris an
 d Helen Belkin Art Gallery at The University of British Columbia.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening Friday\, November 11\, 7pm. Exhib
 ition runs to December 11\, 2011.</h4><p><em>Falling Woman</em>\, an exhibi
 tion of work by <strong>Christine D’Onofrio</strong>\, features a large sca
 le\, looped video depicting a woman trapped in a never-ending fall.</p><p>T
 he fall references many art historical works and media events.  From Yves K
 lein's photomontage farce Leap into the Void\, to the loss of control in th
 e humble gestures of Bas Jan Ader's falling pieces and Marilyn Monroe’s inf
 amous skirt blowing scene in The Seven Year Itch wherein Monroe’s famous fl
 irtatious gesture concealed a humiliating moment.  D'Onofrio addresses the 
 influence feminist discourse has had on her own practice and positioning\, 
 and particularly references second wave feminist artist Ana Mendieta\, know
 n for her site-specific installations and performances. Mendieta attempted 
 to retrieve the nude body from the masculine eye\; in her signature "Sileut
 a" series she imposed her body onto the environment with impressions of her
  contours\, a series that foreshadowed her untimely and suspicious death. I
 n Falling Woman the body continues to be a battleground of desire and explo
 itation. The fall represents D'Onofrio's interest in contrived depictions o
 f unconsciousness. The piece plays with the dream of falling interpreted as
  a loss of control or the feeling of fear and humiliation that comes in dre
 ams of being naked. The wind from the fall forces the protagonist's dress o
 ver her head\, which simultaneously conceals her identity and exposes her b
 ody\, acting as a natural yet exploitative flirtation with the camera. Cont
 rol and autonomy clash\, for the subject has not jumped nor has she been pu
 shed and she will never land\; instead she is in the midst of a continuous 
 fall.  The meeting of these moments manifest themselves in an endless subli
 me sky wherein we witness the woman fighting to connect with it.</p><p>Alon
 gside Falling Woman\, D'Onofrio will present her newest work\, <em>Feminist
  Joke Book</em>\; a 21 page\, accordion-style\, traditional letterpress boo
 k entitled  “How many Feminists does it take to change a Lightbulb?" The bo
 ok reveals different punch lines to this iconic joke\, some insinuating fem
 inists’ prudish stereotypes\, as in the iconic punch line “That’s not funny
 ” others referring to the tactics and processes necessary for feminists to 
 gain a voice. Perhaps it is these stigmas and reputations that have complic
 ated feminist declaration or motives today.  Hopeful mixed with chauvinisti
 c punchlines progress in chronological order that follow the waves of femin
 ism.  The book finishes with\, “Trick question. Feminists can’t change anyt
 hing” - an affective reality of the difficulties of making change.</p><p><e
 m>Christine D'Onofrio is a visual artist currently living and practicing in
  Vancouver\, British Columbia\, Canada. Her work focuses on the re-staging 
 of objects in to distinguishing aesthetics of art historical tropes\, to in
 vestigate the framing of identity and cultural meaning. She attended York U
 niversity in Toronto for her BFA\, and completed her MFA from the Universit
 y of British Columbia.  D’Onofrio has held positions at University of Briti
 sh Columbia\, Emily Carr University of Art and Design\, University of Toled
 o and University of Windsor\, and has shown expansively throughout Canada.<

 ia/Dystopia: Japan's Image of the Manchurian Ideal." Manchukuo.</p><p>This 
 paper investigates the recoding of old\, walled\, Chinese towns in relation
 ship to new urban spaces such as Xinjing and Mukden. Japanese planners deve
 loped these city spaces in the puppet state of Manchukuo during the 1930s a
 nd early 1940s. Using tourist literature and imagery featured in Manshû Gra
 ph\, a monthly magazine published by the Japanese-run South Manchuria Railw
 ay Company (SMRC)\, I discuss the transformation of these spaces from once-
 defensive\, cultural signifiers in northeast China into contained sites whe
 re (it was advertised) Japanese tourists could see Chinese and Manchu life 
 and culture on display. I argue that the city wall\, separating the old tow
 n from the newly constructed\, modern urban spaces of the SMRC Zones\, cont
 ributed to the colonial domination of Sino-Manchurian inhabitants in two wa
 ys: as a tool for scopic domination\; as a screen which facilitated the mat

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>World Art Studio at SFU Woodward's</h4><p
 >James’s work is constituted through his abiding interest in histories of i
 conoclasm in which the social divisions and inequities that mark and delimi
 t artistic practice are registered most emphatically. In James’ practice as
  an artist and as a writer\, conventional aesthetic discourse is lost and r
 ediscovered in neighboring fields such as topology or psychoanalysis\; capi
 talist property relations are seen to exert as much determinative force on 
 the visual field as phenomenological bodies\; and theoretical materials are
  indistinct from physical ones in an incipient philosophy of materials. In 
 his teaching\, James incorporates a wide base of theoretical paradigms and 
 experimental methodologies in order to examine the fullest extension of the
  field of art.</p><p>James was a founding member of Orchard\, a cooperative
 ly organized gallery in New York's Lower East side from 2005-2008\, and is 
 a founding editor\, along with fellow artists Sam Lewitt and Cheyney Thomps
 on\, of Scorched Earth\, a forthcoming journal devoted to questions concern
 ing drawing. His work has been exhibited widely in the United States and Eu
 rope\, including Portikus (Frankfurt)\, Kunstwerke (Berlin)\, The Institute
  of Contemporary Art (London)\, PS1 Center for Contemporary Art and the Mus
 eum of Modern Art (New York). He has had recent solo exhibitions at Galerie
  Christian Nagel\, Köln\; Franco Soffiantino Arte Contemporanea\, Torino\; 
 and Elizabeth Dee Gallery\, New York.</p><p>His writing has been published 
 in journals such as Artforum\, Texte zur Kunst\, Afterall\, and Made in USA
 \, and he has curated several exhibitions\, including a traveling retrospec
 tive of the television and video works of Jean-Luc Godard. James' publicati
 ons include "I said I love. That is the promise." (published by b-books (Be
 rlin) and Oejiblikket (Copenhagen) 2003\; and "... Ical Krbbr Prodly Prsnts
  Gart Jas\, Jon Klsy\, Josf Stra\," published by Walther König (Köln) 2006.

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Cheyney Thompson is a New York-based arti
 st whose work in painting and sculpture centers on issues of abstraction an
 d representation.</h4><p><strong>Cheyney Thompson</strong> is a New York-ba
 sed artist whose work in painting and sculpture centers on issues of abstra
 ction and representation. His work is the subject of a survey exhibition wh
 ich will open at the MIT List Visual Arts Center on February 9\, 2012. Alon
 gside recent exhibitions at Sutton Lane (Brussels and Paris)\, Galerie Dani
 el Bucholz (Berlin and Köln)\, and Andrew Kreps Gallery (New York)\, Thomp
 son's work has been featured in significant exhibitions such as Slow Painti
 ng\, Museum Morsbroich\, Leverkusen\, Germany (2009)\, Collatéral\, Le Con
 fort Moderne\, Poitiers Cedex\, France (2009) Compass in Hand: Selections f
 rom the Judith Rothschild Foundation Contemporary Drawings Collection\, Mus
 eum of Modern Art\, New York (2009)\, and the Whitney Biennial\, Whitney Mu
 seum of American Art\, New York (2008). Thompson teaches on the MFA Program
  in Visual Art at Bard College\, New York.</p><p>In a pair of recent essays
  (published in Texte zur Kunst and October)\, art historian David Joselit h
 as given a prominent place to Thompson's work in his attempt to articulate 
 how a set of recent practices have significantly opened the discipline of p
 ainting to the transitive activities of the network. Joselit proposes that 
 these practices ask us to consider how actions pass over into objects\, rev
 iving the possibility of a type of a transitive\, diagrammatic condition fo
 r painting\, a condition Joselit had previously attributed to the mechanica
 l drawings of Picabia:</p><p>Thompson's work begs the question of inclusion
  within a genre - of what belongs\, for instance\, to the category "paintin
 g". But his interest in "genre" has little to do with the exhausted (and ex
 hausting) discussions of medium-specificity that have plagued the legacy of
  modern painting. […] The fold\, as Derrida and Gilles Deleuze argue\, may 
 figure as an act of signification even more fundamental than language. It i
 s a doubling over\, a circling back which marks locative meaning based on p
 osition\, touching and repetition. Thompson makes use of at least four kind
 s of folds to articulate boundaries and determine inclusions. These echo th
 e great modernist tactics of noncompositionality\, seriality and the monoch
 rome\, for instance\, but their priorities have shifted from internal to ex
 ternal logics.</p><p>David Joselit\, BLANKS AND NOISE: On Cheyney Thompson\
 , Texte Zur Kunst\, Issue Nr. 77 / March 2010 "Painting"</p><p>The artist's
  ongoing series of Chronochromes (2009 - 2011) are meticulously constructed
  using the color system devised by Albert H. Munsell\, a Boston-based artis
 t and professor at the Massachusetts College of Art in the early 20th centu
 ry. Munsell attempted to create an accurate scientific system for numerical
 ly describing colors by specifying them based on three dimensions: hue\, va
 lue\, and chroma. Thompson grafts this color system onto a calendar\, where
  each day is assigned a complementary hue pair\, with each hour changing th
 e value of the color\, and every month changing the saturation. As Thompson
  explains\, Munsell's color system provides a system of producing paintings
  which register fatigue\, distraction\, and interruptions\, as well as the 
 flow of time.</p><p>Weblinks:</p><p>David Joselit\, BLANKS AND NOISE: On Ch

 a></p><p>A form of material intelligence\, or unconscious materialism\, can
  be seen operating beneath everyday relations between people\, materials an
 d things. The artists in this exhibition investigate materials and approach
 es to art-making that illuminate a variety of 'symptoms' related to oppress
 ion and repression (personal\, social\, and historical): obsessive collecti
 ng\, recycled or discarded materials\, outdated and deskilled processes\, o
 bjects invested with memory and attachment\, base materialism\, and matter 
 loaded with class\, sexual\, gendered\, racial and ethnic connotations.</p>

 HVA</p><p>Japanese Art @ UBC </p><p>This talk examines visual representatio
 ns of the Kamikaze Special Attack Forces in Japan during the Fifteen-Year W
 ar (1931-1945).  The corporeal practices surrounding the Kamikaze\, a group
  of male soldiers who "body-rammed" into enemy targets\, exemplify what Kla
 us Theweleit has defined as one of the characteristics of fascism\, that is
 \, the male subject's identification of his body as a weapon.  Although the
  unity between body and machine was alluded to textually in the mass media\
 , it was rarely visualized in War Campaign Record Paintings\, or propaganda
  paintings that were officially commissioned by the state.  In this talk\, 
 I suggest that visual representations of dying attackers most often drew on
  traditional Japanese aesthetics\, such as symbols of eagles and fallen che
 rry blossoms.  In so doing\, this talk ultimately considers a different vis
 ual manifestation of fascism in Japan. </p><p>Co-Sponsored by the Departmen

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Art\, Hip Hop and Aboriginal Culture - Fe
 bruary 25 to June 3\, 2012</h4><p><strong>Beat Nation</strong> reflects a g
 eneration of artists who juxtapose urban youth culture with Aboriginal iden
 tity in entirely innovative and unexpected ways. Using hip hop and other fo
 rms of popular culture\, artists create surprising new cultural hybrids—in 
 painting\, sculpture\, installation\, performance and video—that reflect th
 e changing demographics of Aboriginal people today.</p><p>In Vancouver\, th
 e unceded territories of the Coast Salish Nations have been a meeting groun
 d for urban Aboriginal youth for decades and\, since the early 1990s\, hip 
 hop has been a driving force of activism in the community. The roots of hip
  hop culture and music have been transformed into forms that echo current r
 ealities of young people\, creating dynamic forums for storytelling and ind
 igenous language\, as well as new modes of political expression. This movem
 ent has been influential across disciplines—similar strategies appear in th
 e visual arts where artists remix\, mash-up and juxtapose the old with the 
 new\, the rural with the urban\, traditional and contemporary as a means to
  rediscover and reinterpret Aboriginal culture within the shifting terrains
  of the mainstream.</p><p>While this exhibition takes its starting point fr
 om hip hop\, it branches out to include artists who use pop culture\, graff
 iti\, fashion and other signifiers of urban life in combination with more t
 raditional forms of Aboriginal identity. Artists create unique cultural hyb
 rids that include graffiti murals with Haida figures\, sculptures carved ou
 t of skateboard decks\, abstract paintings with form-line design\, live vid
 eo remixes with Hollywood films\, and hip hop performances in Aboriginal la
 nguages\, to name a few. While focused on artists working along the West Co
 ast\, Beat Nation brings together artists from across the Americas and reve
 als the shared connections between those working in vastly different places
 .</p><p>As signifiers of Aboriginal identity and culture continue to shift 
 and transform\, and older traditions find renewed meaning in new forms of e
 xpression\, one thing remains constant: a commitment to politics\, to story
 telling\, to Aboriginal languages\, to the land and rights\, whether it be 
 with drums skins or turntables\, natural pigments or spray paint\, ceremoni
 al dancing or break dancing.</p><p><em>Photo: Dana Claxton<br />Baby Girlz

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Color is less an image than a tangled occ
 upation for thought.</h4><p><strong>Scott Lyall</strong> is a Canadian-born
  artist\, whose practice constructs intricate dispositifs\, in which variou
 s epistemological models and concrete material processes find themselves in
  unfamiliar proximity\, producing surprising aesthetic and theoretical effe
 cts. His print-works\, graphic images\, and sculptural installations have b
 een exhibited regularly in North America and Europe. Over the past year\, h
 e has exhibited at Campoli Presti  (London)\, Kosterfelde (Berlin)\, Sutton
  Lane (Paris)\, Miguel Abreu (New York)\, Greene Naftali (New York)\, Silve
 r Flag (Montreal) and the 7th Montreal Biennial. Other recent shows include
  The Power Plant (Toronto)\, Lucky Seven\, the 7th SITE Santa Fe Biennial\,
  Schnitte im Raum\, (in collaboration with Rachel Harrison) at the Morsbroi
 ch\, (Leverkusen\, Germany) and Collatèral at the Confort Moderne (Poitiers
 \, France). In addition\, he continues to collaborate with New York-based c
 horeographer Maria Hassabi\, acting as dramaturge.</p><p>As part of the Dis
 tinguished Visiting Artist Program at UBC’s Department of Art History\, Vis
 ual Art and Theory\, Lyall plans to discuss his recent use of digital print
 ing and the color effects he has grouped under the general title <span styl
 e="text-decoration: line-through">nudes</span>.  Suggesting a non-painting 
 that has survived the abstract ‘work’\, Lyall’s <span style="text-decoratio
 n: line-through">nudes</span> seem to exemplify an equal formal resistance 
 to both the economies of the present and the net of image-signs.  “We are l
 ooking at anti-Rothko”\, as Aude Launay has written. Color is less an image
  than a tangled occupation for thought.</p><p>“In fact\, I do conceive of t
 he contemporary as plastic: little shifts affecting points in the material 
 of history so that the latter\, at any moment\, becomes a story yet to be t
 old.  If an art work first appears as uncertain to its audience\, it first 
 appears as uncertain to those who make it up\, as well.  Let me say\, then:
  when I first began making the things in question\, I had little sense of a
 nything I was trying to represent.  But there was something in the simple g
 raphic reduction I was using that gave a sense of inconsistency where I exp
 ected to see a ground. This something became the motif\, but it was hardly 
 a firm object.  I noticed and was attracted to a zone along the surface\, v
 ery slight\, but where you couldn’t exactly perceive the surface image\, or
  couldn’t distinguish whether the image was ‘inside’ or on top. Up close\, 
 there was a surface\, because the material facts were obvious\; from a dist
 ance\, there was obviously an object of design.  But always\, in the relati
 on of the body-before-the-image\, there was an atmospheric haze that seemed
  to erase the surface itself.  If I resolved to speak of ‘motif’ it wasn’t 
 because I’d found an object\; it was more that the hazy atmosphere became a
 n issue for my design.  And it wasn’t that I was seeing a spurious distance
  or an abîme.  My process is the development of a speculative (non-) identi
 ty\; the motif itself is staged for a transitive distribution in thought.”<

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs March 10 to April 28\, 20
 12.</h4><p>Satellite Gallery and Access Gallery co-present Mexican curator 
 and CCST candidate <strong>Adriana Estrada Centelles’</strong> group exhibi
 tion <em>Broken Borders</em>.</p><p>The exhibition reflects on the sociopol
 itical situation that has affected Mexico and more recently other countries
 \, such as Canada and the United States\, for the past six years—the drug w
 ar. This war has resulted in more than 40\,000 deaths in Mexico and has shi
 fted the everyday lives of Mexicans into a permanent state of alert\, uncer
 tainty and terror. Teresa Margolles\, Rosa María Robles\, Marcos Ramírez Er
 re and Jorge Malacón have depicted\, through their work\, some of the mecha
 nisms of this war that refer to a more complex and global political structu
 re. They unveil the drug war as a war machine and a new power structure of 
 necropolitics.</p><p><em>Broken Borders</em> is divided and presented in tw
 o spaces\, the Satellite Gallery and Access Gallery. The main purpose is to
  raise awareness of this complex and global war\, not only as Mexico’s soci
 al and political problem\, but also as a worldwide economic model that affe
 cts all societies\, including Canada. In order to experience the entire exh
 ibition\, the public will move from one gallery to another and will have th
 e opportunity to engage differently with the streets of Vancouver’s Downtow
 n Eastside. Drug trafficking and consumption is a constant and evident prob
 lem in this area of the city. Without any prejudice against illegal drug co
 nsumption\, the exhibition opens up spaces of reflection on the public’s (i
 n)direct participation that feeds violence and strengthens the expansion of
  the war on drugs.</p><p><strong>Teresa Margolles</strong> is an artist bas
 ed in Mexico City. Since she joined the collective SEMEFO\, derived from Me
 xico’s Medical Forensic Service\, she uses the morgue as her atelier and wo
 rks only with the bodies of those who suffered a violent death\, in order t
 o rescue them from invisibility. The victims’ anonymity is a result of inhu
 man relationships in modern overcrowded societies.</p><p><strong>Rosa María
  Robles</strong> is a Culiacán-based artist. Her work reflects on violence\
 , power\, impunity and drug-trafficking subculture—narcocultura. Robles tra
 nsports a social problem into the core of aesthetic perception by bringing 
 violence into the realm of art\; beauty and the sublime are abruptly substi
 tuted with all that is terrible and wretched.</p><p><strong>Marcos Ramírez 
 Erre</strong> is a Tijuana-based artist. Located on the US-Mexico border\, 
 Erre explores the role of history\, communication\, economics and militaris
 m in the development of cultural stereotypes in border-control policies and
  situations of conflict. Erre points out the polarities of border communiti
 es\, criticism of political injustice and global disinformation.</p><p><str
 ong>Jorge Malacón</strong> is an artist based in Mexico City who locates hi
 s work in the latest representation of violence altered by mass media. He a
 lso condemns the process of dehumanization affected by new mechanisms of co
 mmunication in Mexican photojournalism\, or so-called narco-journalism.</p>
 <p><em>This exhibition was made possible through the support of the Michael
  O’Brian Family Foundation\, the Killy Foundation and the Audain Endowment 
 for Curatorial Studies through the Department of Art History\, Visual Art a
 nd Theory in collaboration with the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery at 
 the University of British Columbia.</em></p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Reception and Performances March 28\, 6 t
 o 9 pm. Exhibition runs to April 7\, 2012.</h4><p><em>Retro-Perspective</em
 > is an exhibition of Serge Guilbaut’s remarkable artistic career. Guilbaut
  has long been a leading academic figure in the art history world and now a
  retrospective of his artwork\, which has stealthfully flown under the rada
 r for almost half a century\, has been assembled for the first time. The fu
 ll range of Guilbaut’s practice is represented in Retro-Perspective\, from 
 his early beginnings in painting\, through to photography\, collage\, video
 \, installation and performance. Guilbaut’s boundless curiosity drives the 
 prodigious creative output that has made him one of the most remarkably dyn
 amic and relevant artists working today. By beguiling viewers with his humo
 ur\, conceptual approach\, prolific use of media imagery\, and unconvention
 al methods\, Guilbaut subtly offers serious commentary. Continually challen
 ging the way we receive and interpret information\, Guilbaut would have had
  a profound influence on contemporary art had anyone ever seen his work.</p

 Show runs to March 29 to April 7\, 2012.</h4><p><strong>In Conjunction with
  The Unseen: AHVA Graduate Symposium</strong></p><p>“The Unseen” features w
 orks by seven graduate students that explore the limits of the unseen. A co
 mmon dialogue around the body as invisible or absent emerges through an exa
 mination of the qualities of specific media such as film as well as in cont
 emporary technologies. Narratives of history and mythology that have been b
 oth lost and repressed are recuperated in order to bring new specificity to
  their subjects or at least to make tangible the processes of erasure and e
 ntropy that effect them.</p><p><strong>Exhibiting artists:</strong> Kevin D
 ay & Nathan McNinch\, Colin Lyons\, Aydin Matlabi\, Faye Mullen\, Tristan S
 ober-Blodgett and Étienne Tremblay-Tardif</p><p><strong>Curated By:</strong

 /p><p><strong>THE UNSEEN</strong></p><p>Organised in conjunction with the 3
 5th Annual University of British Columbia Art History\, Visual Art and Theo
 ry Graduate Symposium\, this exhibition features works by seven graduate st
 udents exploring the limits of the unseen.  The artworks record\, inscribe\
 , narrate\, choreograph and flirt with various absences across the vast ter
 rain of visual experience.  They consider\, each in their own way\, the wei
 ght of the invisible subject\, yet together a common dialogue emerges aroun
 d the body.  By recuperating the historical body in order to re-imagine or 
 re-inscribe it with new specificity\, as well as examining the absence of t
 he body through a particular medium\, the artworks call attention to their 
 art historical and psychical underpinnings\, and reflect on the degree to w
 hich the body is a central concern when addressing notions of the unseen an
 d its effects.</p><p>An exploration of their chosen media is used to unders
 core notions of absence and erasure in artworks by Faye Mullen\, Tristan So
 ber-Blogett and Colin Lyons.  Attending to these unseen elements\, the mate
 riality of these works sustains a set of continuities that perforate the su
 rface and tie them to the body.  In Mullen’s video installation\, To be Vei
 led\, a struggle for the continuance of being is maintained in the looped v
 eiling and unveiling of the represented body.  The body exists temporally o
 nly through the medium itself.  The interrelational character of materialit
 y takes precedent in All I Need is a Tin Can Modem by Sober-Blodgett\, wher
 ein the body is implicated in the knit Ethernet cable which further plays o
 n the advancements of technology.  For Lyons\, the materials chosen for his
  artworks are reminiscent of the industrial era\, and the processes of ruin
 ation re-enacted become exemplary of continual systems of growth and obscur
 ity.</p><p>Bookworm by Étienne Tremblay-Tardif and Sufi Vision by Aydin Mat
 labi both challenge established historical narratives and present us with p
 reviously unseen propositions.  In Bookworm\, the artist drills through an 
 official Québec history book\, finding within its pages pierced portraits o
 f iconic figures.  Variously positioned\, these piercings evoke assassinati
 ons\, violations and defacement\; the nuanced ideological struggles and ten
 sions of which history is made.  In never giving us one explicit narrative\
 , Tremblay-Tardif recuperates the infinity of untold historical alternative
 s.  Sufi Vision explores the mystical realm of Persian mythology by departi
 ng from imagery traditionally void of the figurative and restaging it in th
 e field of the sensual body.  Depicted are the concept of brotherhood from 
 the Koran\, the lustful chronicle of the Sady\, and the significance of fem
 ale power in Iranian history.</p><p>In Kevin Day and Nathan McNinch's colla
 borative artwork\, attributes of gallery visitors are captured on camera – 
 a surveillance device that records data such as skin\, eye and hair colour 
 as well as bodily comportment.  The division of this data from the body its
 elf is disrupted\, however\, by its abstraction into randomised and illegib
 le code that is further overwritten and even erased by the (mal)function of
  the machines that inscribe the data on rolls of paper.  The trace of the c
 ompartmentalised and possibly commodified body eventually overflow the exhi
 bition space as the paper continuously piles on the floor\, paradoxically s
 uggesting the arbitrariness of such processes that would erase bodily prese
 nce while simultaneously resisting the action in its abundance of physical 
 material.</p><p>The 35th Annual UBC Art History Graduate Symposium: The Uns

 <br />Creative Contributor: Glenn Alteen</p><p>This exhibition is comprised
  of multiple series of black and white photographs and a video that address
  the personal and sociopolitical context of working as an artist in contemp
 orary Iranian-middle eastern culture. The sequencing of the photos fosters 
 a subtle narrative effect in each series. The subjects addressed in the pho
 tos include embodied cultural and social confusion\; alienation in a “wired
 ” world\; and loss of beauty in a socially restricted life. In these series
 \, which are strongly affected by the political situation of Iran\, after t
 he wane of the recent social movement\, Ahadi strives to represent the soci
 opolitical truth of his country through a number of personal spaces dominat
 ed by a profound sense of confusion and uncertainty\; the truth\, which is 
 shining in the absence of those commotions.</p><p><strong>Ali Ahadi</strong

  Azad University of Central Tehran\, 2007 and is currently attending the MF

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>A tri-university workshop for specialists
  in Chinese cultural studies UBC\, SFU and the University of Victoria.</h4>
 <p><strong>Zhang Peili</strong> (b. 1957) is currently associate professor 
 and chair of the Specific Media Studio\, School of Inter Media Art at the C
 hina Academy of Art\, one of China's most important arts educators\, and a 
 leading figure of the Chinese contemporary art scene since the mid-1980s. A
  pioneer of Chinese video art\, Zhang’s work originates from a position tha
 t “challenges social mores\, rampant development\, authoritative politics a
 nd cultural values\,” while considering themes of the individual\, time\, l
 oss of innocence\, and the meaninglessness of repetitive human activities. 
 His video works are held in the permanent collections of foremost art insti
 tutions including the Museum of Modern Art (New York)\, The Pompidou Art Ce
 nter (Paris) and the Fukuoka Asian Fine Arts Museum (Japan). He lives and w
 orks in Hangzhou\, China.</p><p>This workshop explores standards of art pra
 xis in China and the international arena\, and further considers the questi
 on of how the new media works of Zhang Peili\, acclaimed in both China and 
 the West\, fit into Chinese approaches to art. Have we in the West misunder
 stood the level of artistic freedom in China? As an artist who exhibits int
 ernationally and in China\, Zhang Peili will offer his understanding of the
  major differences between Chinese and Western art practices.</p><p>Refresh
 ments will be available.</p><p><em>Organized by the Department of Art Histo
 ry\, Visual Art and Theory and The Center for Chinese Research\, UBC. With

 s April 27th – May 18th\, 2012</h4><p>TOPDOWN BOTTOMUP is pleased to presen
 t <em>Black Maria\,</em> a video installation by local artist <strong>Scott
  Billings</strong>.</p><p>Gallery open Wednesday to Friday 12 to 6pm</p><p>
 Inspired by early film and the protocinematic devices of the late 18th cent
 ury\, <em>Black Maria</em> consists of a custom video apparatus that projec
 ts a crawling figure circumambulating the periphery of the gallery. Centeri
 ng on issues of mobility and animality\, Billings’ work often engages with 
 the mimetic relationship between the technological apparatus and the somati
 c figures it propels forward. Constructed from an overturned carousel slide
  projector and a hacked digital camera\, Billings’ idiosyncratic machine fu
 nctions as camera\, projector\, and motion rig all in one. The repetitive c
 rack and flash of the apparatus enacts a cinematic experience akin to war f
 ilms\, placing the spectator directly in the <em>line of fire</em>\, while 
 the indexical body in the projection—a 1:1 literal inscription of the artis
 ts spectral body in the actual space it was recorded—is dragged through the
  ‘mud’ of the gallery cube.</p><p><em>Black Maria</em> draws its title from
  Edison’s first film studio.  Built in 1893 on a large turntable to maximiz
 e sunlight through the roof\, Edison’s assistants nicknamed the studio the 
 <em>Black Maria</em> (aka police paddywagons) due to its dark\, cramped\, a
 lmost prison-like working conditions.</p><p><em><strong>TopDown BottomUp </

 . Exhibition runs to June 2\, 2012.</h4><p>Introducing new works by Nathan 
 McNinch and by Joshua Bonnetta\, in conjunction with two pieces released in
  1976 by Joan La Barbara\, the artworks in <em>Sans Song</em> investigate t
 he tools and instruments of vocal sonic production and reception.</p><p>In 
 1976\, during a time when she was the leading practitioner of ‘extended voc
 al techniques’\, American singer\, Joan La Barbara released the album Voice
  is the Original Instrument. Sans Song will feature two of the tracks from 
 this important work: Circular Song and Voice Piece: One-Note Internal Reson
 ance Investigation. These works elaborate a on physical and dynamic space b
 y dealing with breath and various articulations of one single pitch respect
 ively.</p><p><strong>Nathan McNinch</strong> is a Montreal based artist liv
 ing in Vancouver while completing his Master of Fine Arts degree at the Uni
 versity of British Columbia. His kinetic\, installation and sonic sculpture
 s have been described as “explorations of personal memories conceived as po
 etic mechanical structures”. i remember how frail your hands had become / a
 nd the quiet of waiting (2012) features McNinch’s typically “crude” constru
 ctions using every-day materials\, the strange subtlety and gracefulness of
  which are epitomised in this new work.</p><p><strong>Joshua Bonnetta</stro
 ng> works with film\, video and sound in various modes of exhibition\, perf
 ormance and installation. His work deals with memory\, sound and technologi
 es in a manner that surpasses nostalgia and implicates multiple histories o
 f the work simultaneously. Evensong (2012) is a hushed\, vibrating work tha
 t uses recordings contoured and filtered by the structure and material of a
 rchitecture. The resonant qualities and reverberations created in a massive
  architectural space include vocal iterations and song that\, in Evensong\,
  have lost discernibility.</p><p>This combination of vocal works from the 1
 970s with contemporary sonic and kinetic sculptures allows for an investiga
 tion of form and physicality through the exploration of resonance\, breath 
 and corporeality in vocal production and reception.</p><p>Sans Song is cura
 ted by <strong>Jenny Walton</strong>\, a candidate to the Masters Degree in
  Critical and Curatorial Studies at The University of British Columbia.</p>
 <p>This exhibition will feature in the 2012 Vancouver Gallery Hop on Saturd
 ay April 28th\, including a talk with the curator at Western Front at 3:30p

  exhibition featuring contemporary artists Paul Mathieu\, Sin-Ying Ho\, She
 lley Miller\, Elizabeth Zvonar and Brendan Tang. Presented at Satellite Gal
 lery\, this exhibition engages with the history of porcelain - in particula
 r\, contemporary expressions of the blue-and-white motifs reminiscent of Ch
 inese Ming Dynasty wares. With more than a dozen works on display touching 
 on pottery\, sculpture and photography\, this exhibition joins new perspect
 ives to familiar porcelain motifs.</p><p>The works in this exhibition make 
 a compelling statement: porcelain is an active and vivid vehicle for our im
 agination. It has always been a force in global trade and industrialization
  since early modern times and\, while its proliferation is a direct consequ
 ence of Western colonialism\, it is seldom considered within critical discu
 ssions of that history. This ancient material may seem obsolete within toda
 y’s technocratic societies\, yet it continues to thrive\, as it has for tho
 usands of years\, in both applied and creative fields.</p><p><em>Elegant Di
 sorder</em> seeks to make visible the tensions between local and global ide
 ntities embedded within porcelain’s materiality and design. It is from this
  perspective that each artist in the exhibition subverts expectations of cr
 aft and decorative arts as well as gender roles. Each engages with the ques
 tions of history\, technology\, sexuality\, colonialism\, and labour that h
 ave long intersected on porcelain’s elegant surface.</p><p><u>Artist Biogra
 phies</p><p></u><strong>Sin-Ying Ho’s</strong> works are part of her series
  Meeting Places (2007-2009). Her work reflects the impact of globalization 
 on the cultural borrowings and interactions in an accelerated “global villa
 ge.” She currently teaches at Queen’s College in New York City.</p><p><stro
 ng>Paul Mathieu</strong> is interested in the role and function of ceramics
  within culture in general and art in particular. Mathieu explores concepts
  particular to craft practices\, such as decoration\, function and containm
 ent in relation to various contexts in time\, history and human experiences
 . He currently teaches at Emily Carr University of Art + Design in Vancouve
 r.</p><p><strong>Shelley Miller’s</strong> work is situated in public space
 s\, in both ephemeral form and impermanent materials. Miller is a Montreal-
 based artist whose installations\, sculptures and public works have been ex
 hibited across Canada as well as in India and Brazil. She completed her BFA
  degree at the Alberta College of Art and Design in Calgary\, and received 
 her MFA from Concordia University in 2001.</p><p><strong>Elizabeth Zvonar’s
 </strong> pieces explore the material relationship of porcelain to the body
  and sexuality. Zvonar holds a BFA from Emily Carr University of Art + Desi
 gn. Her work has been extensively exhibited\, most recently in Vancouver at
  the Vancouver Art Gallery and the Contemporary Art Gallery\, as well as in
 ternationally.</p><p><strong>Brendan Tang’s</strong> work enters the dialog
 ue on contemporary culture\, technology and globalization through a fabrica
 ted relationship between ceramic tradition and Techno-Pop Art.  Most recent
 ly\, his work has been exhibited at the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréa
 l (as a 2010 Sobey Finalist)\, the Vancouver Art Gallery and the Power Plan

 >Vancouver-based artist <strong>Julie Andreyev's</strong> Animal Lover seri

 at includes video works and an online blog (<a href="http://julieandreyev.c
 om/tomsugi-blog/">http://julieandreyev.com/tomsugi-blog/</a>). A newly comp
 iled video collection from the blog follows the daily lives of Tom and Sugi
 \, a portrait of the dogs' unique behaviours and social lives. In the 2009 
 video installation\, Aria\, Tom and Sugi are pictured as the central subjec
 ts within the iconic Canadian landscape of Banff\, Alberta. Recordings take

 ed into a musical soundtrack culminating in an “operatic solo” by Tom.</p><
 p><strong>Mary Anne Barkhouse</strong> was born in Vancouver\, BC\, and bel
 ongs to the Nimpkish band\, Kwakiutl First Nation. Currently based in Ontar
 io\, Barkhouse uses animal imagery in ways that examine popular perceptions
  of them and challenge divisions between scientific and alternate forms of 
 knowledge. With playmats and hand-made wooden wolves\,  Barkhouse's dry wit
  reveals contradictions between resource management and tourism that constr
 uct differing ideas of the “wilderness\,” and what effects this has on an a
 nimal that is often cast to the periphery.</p><p>Toronto-based artist<stron
 g> Bill Burns'</strong> Dogs\, Boats and Airplanes series includes a photog
 raphic collection from the artist's travels as well as a collection of salt
  and pepper shakers of dogs\, boats and airplanes. In its glaring absurdity
 \, the work draws attention to the way in which dogs act as double agents t
 hat are at home in both urban and natural environments. The animals become 
 a site of intellectual engagement with a highly rationalized and bureaucrat
 ic conception of nature\, in which pedigree\, global capital\, movement and
  travel are all at stake.</p><p><em>Photo: Top image\; Julie Andreyev\, Tom

  David Khang\, How To Feed A Piano\, (Second Edition) book launch\, 3:00-4:

 Fire</em> is a new multimedia installation by <strong>Abbas Akhavan</strong
 > and<strong>Marina Roy</strong> co-organized by Centre A and Malaspina Pri
 ntmakers. Collaborating since 2001\, Akhavan and Roy are continuing their o
 ngoing parallel research and practice. Fire/Fire calls out like a warning\,
  of obvious danger\, perhaps too late. The title derived from the Great Fir
 e of Meireki\, which destroyed more than half of the Japanese capital city 
 of Edo\, leading to the redistribution of power and the establishment of th
 e Edo period that gave birth to the tradition of Ukiyo-e prints in Japan. I
 t also refers to the Great Vancouver Fire of 1886\, which razed most of the
  newly incorporated city\, and more recently the building fires that expell
 ed artists from their studios\, paving the way for new real estate and cond
 o development. Fires are testament to our inability to control nature.</p><
 p>At Centre A\, Roy will exhibit a new video animation that depicts scenes 
 of public and private life being overtaken by animistic creatures called yo
 kai\; these creatures allegorize the aftermath of human disaster and enviro
 nmental collapse. The animation will be juxtaposed with an aquarium install
 ation of salmon and catfish. In cultivating fish in the gallery the artist 
 wishes to point to compartmentalized zones of bio-political control and gen
 trification beyond the gallery's glass facade.</p><p>Using Centre A's archi
 tecture\, Akhavan will create a site specific artwork that address themes r
 elated to shifting economies in Vancouver's real estate and urban developme
 nt\, natural disasters and local fires.</p><p><em>Fire/Fire</em> will also 
 include a selection of original Ukiyo-e prints and a book from the personal
  collections of John O'Brian and Paul de Guzman. The final component of the
  exhibition will be a collaborative artist book developed by Roy and Akhava
 n scheduled to be published in Fall 2012.</p><p><em>Fire/Fire</em> is co-or
 ganized by Centre A and Malaspina Printmakers Society.</p><p><strong>Openin
 g reception at Malaspina Printmakers (1555 Duranleau Street): Saturday\, Ju
 ne 2\, 5:00-7:00pm</strong></p><p><strong>Abbas Akhavan</strong></p><p>Abba
 s Akhavan was born in Tehran\, and currently lives and works in Toronto. Hi
 s practice ranges from site-specific ephemeral installations to drawing\, v
 ideo and performance. For the past five years\, the domestic sphere has bee
 n an ongoing area of research in Akhavan's work. Earlier works explore the 
 relationship between the house and the nation state and how the trauma of s
 ystemic violence enacted upon civilians can be inherited and re-enacted wit
 hin the family lineage – the home as a forked space between hospitality and
  hostility. More recent work has shifted focus onto spaces just outside the
  home – thee garden\, the backyard\, and other domesticated landscapes.</p>
 <p>Akhavan's work has been exhibited in spaces including Vancouver Art Gall
 ery\, Darling Foundry\, and Power Plant (Canada)\, KW Institute for Contemp
 orary Art (Germany)\, Kunsten Museum of Modern Art (Denmark)\, Performa 11 
 (USA)\, Belvedere Museum (Austria) and The Delfina Foundation (England). Ak
 havan was the recipient of Kunstpreise Berlin (2012). Akhavan is represente
 d by The Third Line.</p><p><a href="http://thethirdline.com/">http://thethi
 rdline.com</a></p><p><strong>Marina Roy</strong></p><p>In the pile-up of la
 nguage and spectacle which constitutes our present moment\, one role for ar
 t is to create a clearing within our petrified landscape\, and\, through ta
 pping into the idea of a material intelligence and reassembling all this ne
 w and obsolete stuff\, construct new conceptions of reality\, shot through 
 with historical memory\, utopian aspirations\, and pleasure.</p><p>Cross-di
 sciplinary in scope\, Roy's art practice investigates the intersection betw
 een materials\, language\, history\, and ideology. Her work addresses the d
 esire for a post-humanist perspective\, counter to the dictates of humanist
 ic hubris and biopolitical control. Materials and objects themselves have m
 ultiple potential agency\, and art can act as a bridge between culture and 
 nature\, ethics and drive. Roy has exhibited locally\, nationally and inter
 nationally. In 2001 she published sign after the x (Artspeak/Arsenal Pulp)\
 , a book which revolves around the letter X and its multiple meanings. In 2
 010 she was recipient of the VIVA art award\, British Columbia's largest vi
 sual art award. She is associate professor of visual art in the Department 
 of Art History\, Visual Art\, and Theory\, at the University of British Col
 umbia.</p><p><a href="http://www.marinaroy.ca/">http://www.marinaroy.ca</a>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Interference is the first interactive art
  installation produced by the AVAST team. It is an experiment in the physic
 al properties of light and sound.</h4><p><em>Interference</em> is the first
  interactive art installation produced by the AVAST team. There will be a s
 hort opening reception and demonstration of the installation on <strong>Mon
 day\, June 4\, at 11:00am.</strong></p><p>AVAST is a group of four UBC visu
 al arts and music students working under the direction of Professors <stron
 g>Bob Pritchard</strong> and<strong>Richard Prince</strong> to create a ser
 ies of interactive audio/visual installations.</p><p><em>Interference</em> 
 is an experiment in the physical properties of light and sound. Placed some
 what inconspicuously against two walls\, the installation will immediately 
 detect any passers-by who happen into its sphere\, allowing them to directl
 y interact with the piece.</p><p>Each segment the viewers activate on eithe
 r side of the installation represents a breakdown of a pure form of the cor
 responding medium. Although we perceive it as a unified whole\, white light
  is a combination of all colours. Similarly\, a seemingly natural sound is 
 a combination of many frequencies.</p><p>The installation provides a space 
 in which viewers are able to engage with the work with their own bodies. Th
 eir movement through the gap between the two components triggers the corres
 ponding audio and visual events\, and as a result\, allows the participant 
 to fully connect with the work. Movement\, the physicality of a space\, ges
 ticulation\, and the human senses can combine to create endlessly unique co
 mpositions.</p><p>The two sides of the installation are also dynamically li
 nked. As viewers progress along one side\, the opposite side reacts and cha
 nges\, allowing for the creation of a deeper and more complicated audio/vis
 ual experience. Viewers can only truly enjoy the installation when they not
  only interrupt their own daily movement patterns\, but when they ask anoth
 er person to interrupt theirs as well.</p><p>The AVAST project is supported
  by the UBC 2012 Arts Undergraduate Research Award.</p>

 and his new record album The Dogs and Boats and Airplanes Children’s Choir.
 </p><p>Animals are deeply connected to us through property relations\, agri
 culture and husbandry. Dogs\, for instance\, have traveled\, over several m
 illennia\, the entire planet with us\; they are part friend and advisor\; p
 art worker\, part merchandise and part wolf. In a number of our origin stor
 ies they are uniquely excluded from Eden yet act as our guides to the dange
 rs beyond. They are interlocutors. Double agents. Their role is tied\, now 
 to race\, now to class\, now to nation and now to advanced industrialism. I
 n modern industrial societies\, children\, who play important roles in seve
 ral of my current projects\, share many characteristics of this double agen
 cy. They are purity and innocence\; they are drug addled\; they are gun-tot
 ing. Like dogs and foreigners\, they often stand in for the unknown. My boa
 ts\, airplanes works are on the one hand an absurdity\, a challenge to our 
 assumptions about what are appropriate themes for art\, and on the other ha
 nd\, they are stand-ins for war\, desire\, global travel and industry.</p><
 p><strong>The Dogs and Boats and Airplanes Children’s Choir</strong></p><p>
 The Dogs and Boats and Airplanes Children’s Choir is a collaborative choral
  work involving 32 choristers from Howard Park and Lord Lansdowne public sc

 s a production of Big Pond Small Fish. A 100 voice version of the choir wil

 yl record albums will be available for sale at the special price of $30.00 
 each. Bill Burns Bill is artistic director of the Dogs and Boats and Airpla

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening Reception 7pm September 7th. Exhi
 bition runs September 7 to September 28\, 2012</h4><p><strong>Alison Shield
 s'</strong> second solo exhibition with the Gam Gallery focuses on the proc
 ess of painting. Stemming from her MFA thesis work at the University of Wat
 erloo\, Shields' canvases are the result of layers upon layers of tracings 
 that are used to generate subsequent paintings. For the current exhibition\
 , Shields has returned to her previous works in order to continue the paint
 ing process\, suggesting that the finished product on view is not the final
  definition of these works and negating the possibility for an end result e
 ven in their display.</p><p>In its Latin origins\, "emergence" means "to wo
 rk one's way out of a critical situation\," suggesting that the moment of d
 ecision-making in the process of painting stems from a crisis produced by t
 he endless possibilities that may take shape. A decision must be made in or
 der to proceed. Shields exploits this juncture in her large canvases along 
 with a new series of sixty paintings on 11 x 14? sheets of yupo paper that 
 were painted in various locations around Vancouver.</p><p>Alison is a forme
 r UBC BFA Student. This exhibition has been curated by AHVA CCST candidate

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs September 13th to Septemb
 er 30th\, 2012.</h4><p>“3 days off”\, is an exhibition in two parts that pr
 esents the work of “a young artist in Vancouver”<strong>Dustin Brons</stron
 g>. He points laconically\, but never brusquely\, to the latent humour embe
 dded in the business of contemporary partying rituals and meditations on th
 e Utopic\; making appropriate and astute mockery of the intensity and serio
 usness given to these activities by their players and their discourse. Iron
 ically\, in perpetuating these reconsiderations\, Brons propels their criti
 cal interrogation\, and even is perhaps futile in democratizing these contr
 asting occupations addressed in his interactive work Party Tonight (2011) a
 nd 1-channel HD video\, The Artist Discussing His Idea of a Perfect Society
  (2012). In recalling that Brons is pointing\, one is reminded that the Con
 cepual tradition of pointing à la Baldessari is suggestive and provocative\
 , speculative yet removed\, and poignant in his or her bystanding.</p><p>Th
 e first portion of “3 days off” will be realized exclusively online on TGG’
 s website. It will be translated into a concrete exhibition at The Amazing 
 Gallery in Vancouver this coming Fall.<br />Going live Friday\, August 17th

  and David Heffel have shared their love of Canadian art with students at e
 very turn.</p><p>“We want students to learn the A to Z of the art business\
 ,” says Mr. Heffel who hopes these opportunities will bridge the gap betwee
 n academia and the art industry. For 12 years\, students have developed a s
 trong foundation in Canadian art by contributing to the online art index\, 
 developing catalogue content and assisting with auctions. “The students we 
 have hired from UBC have been professional\, knowledgeable and reliable. It
  has been a win-win for everyone.”</p><p>In addition to hiring students and
  alumni\, the Heffels recently established the Patsy and David Heffel Award
  in Art History at UBC. This $3\,500 award will help promising undergraduat
 e students\, who might not otherwise have the means\, to focus on their stu
 dies and academic training.</p><p>“Our family has been so privileged to be 
 involved in the art world\,” says Mr. Heffel who studied art history at UBC
  before taking over the family business with his brother Robert Heffel (BA’
 87) in 1987. “I hope this award encourages young students to consider a car
 eer in the art business and to help them to get through those tough early y
 ears.”</p><p>The Heffels presented the inaugural award to fourth-year stude
 nt Clara Wong during a UBC alumni event at their Vancouver gallery on Octob
 er 10\, 2012.</p><p>“This award means more to me than I can express. I am s
 o thankful for the donors’ financial assistance and I am grateful that they
  saw something in me worth recognizing\,” says Wong who studies art history
  and anthropology. “This is a wonderful way to end my final year at univers
 ity and it gives me the confidence to pursue my career goals in the fine ar
 ts.”</p><p>To learn more about recruiting students for co-op placements or

 the liberating power of art. Yet in retrospective the question still remain
 s - Is there a true potential in art for the liberation of the individual? 
 Can artists actively contribute with their practice to the betterment of so
 ciety and the creation of durable universal peace? This PeaceTalk will expl
 ore moments of history to shed light on the plausible realization of the li
 berating power of art and its ability to impact peace.</p><p>About PeaceTal
 ks<br />Peace is one of the most complex concepts in human history. It can 
 be understood simply as a state of harmony\, or it can be as complicated as
  the battle for sustaining life in zones of conflict. PeaceTalks is a forum
  for people to develop practical awareness on topics related to peace\, hum
 an rights and role of communities in social change. At PeaceGeeks our goal 
 is to improve the understanding of the general public and ultimately empowe
 r people to promote peace\, accountability and human rights in developing a
 nd conflicted affected areas.</p><p><strong>Manuel Pina-Baldoquín </strong>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs November 16 to December 1
 4\, 2012.</h4><p>Gam Gallery is pleased to present<em>what's the matter?</e
 m> an exhibition featuring the undergraduate Contemporary Art Theory Class 
 from the University of British Columbia. In the course students explore bot
 h theoretical discourse and its practical manifestations in cultural spaces
  and artistic practice. In the last two years Gam Gallery and this class ha
 ve collaborated together to realize an exhibition by the students. For most
  it is their first opportunity to exhibit work. This year the students have
  developed an exhibition from readings and discussions concerning the 'matt
 er' of art. The class has divided into two groups with each group respondin
 g to a found object from a distinctly different point.</p><p><strong>Demate
 rial<br /></strong>We are going to collaborate on creating multiple interpr
 etations and projecting our own theoretical stances on a found object. This
  will involve the creation of individual artist statements and personal rel
 ations to the “work”. This is intended to generate discussion and/or confus
 ion around authenticity and the creation of theories and/or narratives.</p>
 <p><strong>Material<br /></strong>For the material aspect of the show\, we 
 are each going to make a reproduction of the found object chosen by the dem
 aterial group. Each reproduction will be made from different mediums chosen
  by the individual artist\, both two and three-dimensional. Our reproductio
 ns are meant to counter the theoretical discussion of the other group by qu
 estioning the authenticity of reproduction\, the value of reproduction\, an
 d whether reproduction can be considered art. We are also interested in the
  idea of the occupation of space and how reproduction functions in terms of
  space.</p><p>This exhibition is made possible through the support of the D
 epartment of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at The University of Briti
 sh Columbia.</p><p><strong>Opening Reception:</strong> 8 pm November 16th.<

 onumental work\, <em>The Capture of Luoyang (Rakuyō Kōryaku)\, 1944</em>\; 
 National Museum of Modern Art\, Tokyo).</p><p>Levine's thoughts depend upon
  the circumstances\, scenographies\, and expressive intensities of Japanese
  war propaganda painting of the 1930s-1940s\, but he will turn from the sho
 ck-and-awe of many such paintings toward this particular painting's elision
  of explicit violence\, its possible elegiac tone\, and the significance of
  its representation of the Fengxian Temple icon of Vairocana at the Chinese
  Buddhist grottoes at Longmen.</p><p>The question of empire has to be dealt
  with here\, but rather than fixing Kawabata's intentions\, complicity\, or
  the politics of his particular formulation of Nihonga\, Levine shall touch
  upon the narratives and representations of Japanese colonial scholarship o
 f Chinese Buddhist sites\, beginning in the late 19th century\, and the dep
 loyment of such sites in painting and photography as a trope of Japanese em
 pire and pan-Asianist ideology. The exhibition of Kawabata's painting in 19
 45\, meanwhile\, may turn us to confront the viewing of art in aftermath\, 
 and picturing's resistance to simple historical narrative.</p><p><strong>As

 ation &<br />The Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory</p><p>As
  the first feature of our Film Nights 101 series\, the Art History Students
 ’ Association is pleased to announce the screening of Coast Modern\, an ind
 ependent documentary film that explores the dynamics of west coast modern a
 rchitecture. Join us at the Norm Theatre on November 20th at 6pm in order t
 o experience a world of architectural design characterized by its handling 
 of space and light\, and a close connectedness with the natural environment
 . From Los Angeles to Vancouver\, Coast Modern investigates the influence o
 f various architects and their experiments in stripping down design to its 
 ‘natural roots.’ Commentary from architects\, historians\, designers and ac
 ademics offers insight into evolving design concepts that push sleek precis
 ion through untamed existing landscapes.<br />We are delighted that one of 
 the film’s co-Directors will be in attendance for a brief talk and discussi
 on after the screening. Their extensive knowledge of modernist building con
 cepts and visually breathtaking portrayal of west coast architecture provid
 es a contextualized glance at design practices that hit close to home. We e
 xtend a warm invitation to all students and faculty with an interest in art
  and architecture\, in the hopes of facilitating dialogue on principles tha
 t have shaped\, and continue to shape\, architectural design in this part o
 f the world.</p><p>Contact: ubcahsa@gmail.com</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Three young artists share their insights 
 on today’s information society\, its current global transformations\, and t
 heir own experimental modes of communication.</h4><p><strong>Damla Tamer</s
 trong> is an artist from Istanbul currently based in Vancouver\, and a sess
 ional faculty at UBC\, Art History and Visual Art Department. About three y
 ears ago the anecdote became an integral part of Damla’s artistic practice.
  The anecdote is used as a rhetorical medium that interacts with both image
 s and objects\, urging the spectator to both look and listen. Damla is part
 icularly interested in examining the artistic and political stakes of the p
 rocess of encountering singular events\, forgetting them\, and letting them
  re-emerge in contingent circumstances.</p><p><strong><br />Kevin Murphy</s
 trong> is a Vancouver artist who works primarily in 3 dimensions\, using a 
 variety of materials in combination with systems\, cycles\, or organisms. H
 e most often investigates human relationships to ideas of ‘Nature’ and the 
 natural or nonhuman world\, and how these manifest in material\, economic\,
  and imaginative terms.<br />Kevin Day is a Vancouver-based Taiwanese artis
 t. With a keen interest in the fallibility of the human mind/flesh versus t
 he presumed rationality of the machine\, Day’s practice revolves around the
  examination of bodily and medial noise that persists in the encoded age of
  cultural informatics and perpetual mediation. Informed through media\, com
 munications\, and cyber theories\, Day’s practice resists the instrumentali
 zation of informatics and decontextualized data by introducing the abundanc
 e of slippages and noise in the process of signal transmission.</p><p>All t
 hree artists are alumni of the Visual Art program at UBC.</p><p>Furthering 
 the work of a recent scholarly initiative by CAUSA research curators David 
 Bellman and M. Cynog Evans\, Close Connections: A Bibliographic Exhibition 
 ( <a href="http://artspeak.ca/exhibitions/event_detail.html?event_id=283">h
 ttp://artspeak.ca/exhibitions/event_detail.html?event_id=283</a> )\, this p
 roject once again builds networks between libraries\, resources\, and their
  publics.</p><p>The North Vancouver City Library programming includes three
  Reading Series – a selection of 30 books (a mixture of local library books
  and titles borrowed through interlibrary loan) on specific topics that con
 tinue the discussion initiated by BAXTER&’s artwork. Each month's Reading S

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Performance from the artist's coming-of-a
 ge memoir\, followed by a conversation with Michael Morris.</h4><p>As part 
 of the exhibition\, <em>State of Mind: New California Art Circa 1970</em>\,
  at the Belkin Art Gallery\, Eleanor Antin will give a performative reading
  of chapters from Conversations with Stalin.</p><p><strong>Eleanor Antin</s
 trong> is a major figure in the history of feminist art\, who works in a va
 riety of media\, including photography\, video\, film\, performance\, insta
 llation\, drawing and writing. She has had many one-woman exhibitions\, inc
 luding the Museum of Modern Art\, the Whitney Museum and a major retrospect
 ive at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.</p><p>Her works are in many co
 llections around the world including the Beaubourg\, Tate Modern\, MOMA\, t
 he Whitney\, the Art Institute of Chicago\, and the Loeb Family Foundation.
  She has performed around the world including the Venice Biennale\, Documen
 ta 12\, and the Sydney Opera House. Her cult feature film <em>The Man Witho
 ut a World</em> (1991) was screened at many festivals among them Berlin\, U
 SA\, London and San Francisco and had art house commercial distribution. Sh
 e is represented by Ronald Feldman Fine Arts\, New York City. Her many awar
 ds include an Honorary Doctorate from the School of the Art Institute of Ch
 icago (2009) and a Lifetime Achievement award from the Woman’s Caucus of th
 e College Art Association (2006). Antin is an emeritus professor of Visual 
 Arts at the University of California at San Diego.<br />“I was what was cal
 led in the days of the old left\, a red diaper baby. My mother was a Stalin
 ist and though I had a father\, nobody ever listened to him because he was 
 just a socialist and everybody knew they were wimps. It was hard in those d
 ays\, Senator McCarthy was putting people in jail\, people were losing thei
 r jobs\, but we were strong because we always knew what was right. Comrade 
 Stalin told us. Or he would have told us if he wasn’t so far away…These are
  my recollections\, more or less\, about growing up with the many romantic\
 , economic and psychological problems young people face in our country and 
 how by the end of the day\, Comrade Stalin always solved my problems in his
  own inimitable way\, by fucking them up.” (Conversations with Stalin)<br /
 >Antin’s memoir is a smart\, no-holds- barred\, black comedy in the picares
 que coming of age tradition of Holden Caulfield\, Huck Finn\, Little Orphan
  Annie\, and the irrepressible Dorothy on the road to Oz. Impatient with th
 e timidity of the current publishing world (as long ago she was turned off 
 by the art world gallery system and chose to send her 100 BOOTS directly to
  the public through the mail) Antin is bringing her new memoir directly to 
 the public through a series of performance readings in museums\, art spaces
  and universities.<br />A conversation between Michael Morris and Eleanor A
 ntin will follow Antin's performance. Though they have never met in person\
 , in the early 1970s Morris and Antin were actively engaged in The Image Ba
 nk\, a system of postal correspondence between artists for the exchange of 
 information and ideas.</p><p>This event is free and open to the public.</p>

 w runs to January 26th. Accompanying talk December 11\, 7 PM.</h4><p>The Or
  Gallery is pleased to present Things’ Matter\, a group exhibition curated 
 by CCST candidate Klara Manhal featuring works by Kika Thorne\, Heather Pas
 smore\, Michael Drebert and Jen Weih.</p><p>Accompanying Talk with artist K
 ika Thorne and political theorist Dr. Laura Janara: December 11th\, 7pm.</p
 ><p>Things’ Matter is an exhibition of contemporary art that draws on the c
 oncept of objecthood and thingness.  Each artwork is invested in exploring 
 the affecting nature of its material makeup and challenges the viewer to co
 nsider how inanimate things might be thought of as imbued with a vitality o
 r life force. In a series of prints utilizing ink made of plant matter and 
 illustrating theoretical grids of light bending\, Kika Thorne explores how 
 plant matter responds to the manipulation of being used as ink to describe 
 its own photosynthetic processes.  Heather Passmore makes paintings from ra
 w milk paint\, hand made by the artist.  Passmore’s interest is in the medi
 cinal and nutritional properties of raw milk and the politics surrounding i
 ts designation as an illegal substance in Canada. Jen Weih and Michael Dreb
 ert are less oriented toward the material and instead explore the thing’s c
 apacity to seduce and the effective potential that the human desire for thi
 ngs has on human behaviour.  In a gestural work\, Drebert uses his own body
  to transport a fisherman’s glass floater from Haida Gwaii back to its plac
 e of origin in Kamakura\, Japan. While objects aren’t normally thought of a
 s having desires and needs\, Drebert assumes the ball’s yearning to return 
 home and uses himself as a carrier and witness in this service.  For Thing’
 s Matter Jen Weih has made an animation using fragmented things pulled from
  the internet.  Weih’s is an experiment in animating and anthropomorphizing
  these otherwise inanimate things that are the detritus of cultural product
 ion\, human desire and need.</p><p><strong>Kika Thorne</strong> is an artis
 t\, filmmaker and curator currently working towards her PhD in visual art a
 t York University\, Toronto.  Kika Thorne received her MFA from the Univers
 ity of Victoria\, BC and has exhibited extensively including projects at Be
 rlinale Forum Expanded\, Berlin\; Murray Guy\, New York\; The Apartment\, A
 ccess\, Contemporary Art Gallery and Vancouver Art Gallery\, Vancouver\; Pl
 easure Dome\, the Power Plant and G Gallery\,Toronto\, and recently at the 
 Art Gallery of Windsor.  Her work was also included in E-Flux Video Rental 
 which toured the globe for five years.</p><p>Vancouver based artist <strong
 >Heather Passmore</strong> obtained an MFA from the University of British C
 olumbia in 2004. For the past ten years she has exhibited extensively in so
 lo and group exhibitions across Canada and internationally. She conducts fr
 equent artist talks and has published critical essays\, and reviews. Heathe
 r has engaged in a number of international artist residencies and local com
 munity art projects. Her work was recently acquired by the Vancouver Art Ga
 llery and is held in a number of other private and public collections.</p><
 p><strong>Michael Drebert</strong> currently lives and works in Vancouver. 
 He holds a BFA from Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design and an MFA from 
 The University of Victoria.  Michael’s work has been included in exhibition
 s at the Helen Pitt Gallery\, Western Front Gallery\, Lobby Gallery\, The C

 Paul Bucci’</strong>s Mask is a performance in which a subject is painted w

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Opening: Wednesday\, January 16\, 5 to 7pm
 . Exhibition runs January 16 to February 2\, 2013</p><p>When the rational m
 eaning and natural order of things rub up against our sense of understandin
 g\, laughter’s innocent self-ignorance is perhaps a naïve\, unconscious acq
 uiescence responding to the shortcomings of knowledge. It is a laughter of 
 despair at the mind’s failure to offer a satisfactory explanation of the wo
 rld.  Humour usually takes a subversive stance towards all given knowledge.
  Jokes are always a fantasy. Yet\, they carry a cognitive reckoning that of
 ten yields more profound facts. That fleeting moment when the laughter of f
 orgetting your self grasps the underlying cognitive truth\, that moment of 
 pure delight\, is one of awareness of a revealed error. It secures us with 
 a sense of superior knowledge\, the superiority we feel over instinct\, and
  yet belies the inferiority we have in understanding it. In this lies the i
 diot of nature – the human spirit is at once superior to material life\, an
 d yet the mind remains inferior to the pure realm of absolute truth. As an 
 outlet for repressed\, or socially-unacceptable norms\, it is but a whisper
  to the larger\, possibly even more exploitative\, agenda of the virtues an
 d vices of humour. Suspending judgment is the morality that compensates for
  the suspicious or doubtful. The artists do not create laughter\, but rathe
 r\, humour – in a dance between subjectivities. They bring us closer to rea
 lity by what is revealed through imagined ideals faced pragmatically\, the 
 ‘serious’ approached ‘playfully.’</p><p>Featuring works by:<br /><strong>Ma

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Exhibition by Guadalupe Martinez\,
  Jasmine Reimer\, and Anna Wood</strong></p><p>The Commons is proud to pres
 ent Anatomize Obfuscation\, an exhibition of three female artists who work 
 in assemblage sculpture\, collage\, and painting. These artists’ abstract u
 se of ostensibly mundane materials speak of these common objects as charged
  with aesthetic potential. The formal refinement fostered by these artists 
 displays a loving-connection for their ubiquitous materials. The exhibition
  includes new work by Guadalupe Martinez\, Jasmine Reimer and Anna Wood.<br
  />Martinez and Reimer articulate a kind of deconstruction of the everyday 
 through their interplay with use value\, form and colour. Their objects res
 pond to common systems of organization\, standardized within our material l
 andscape. In Reimer's work bundled pieces of insulation\, wood and found ob
 jects act as base material for the surreal and uncanny to manifest. Through
  the changing nature of Martinez's installation\, realized in concrete cind
 erblocks and fabric\, she activates the potenial of her materials in a form
 al process. Paintings by Wood move this kind of colloquial experimentation 
 with materials to the surface\, realizing similiar reductive gestures throu
 gh paint and collage.<br />The liminal space created through abstraction ac
 tivates an aesthetic realm of relative non-clarity. The works in Anatomize 
 Obfuscation seem to breathe and expire simultaneously within their set aest
 hetic systems and utilize these systems to navigate spatial and material te
 xtures of the quotidian experience.<br />This exhibition has been organized
  by Lee Plested with the assitance of Tobin Gibson. The exhibition will ope
 n Wednesday January 16\, 7-9pm\, artists will be in attendance.<br /><stron

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Artist's Talk by Stanya Kahn</h4><p><stro
 ng>Stanya Kahn</strong> is an interdisciplinary artist working primarily in
  video\, with a practice that includes performance\, writing\, sound design
 \, drawing\, animation and digital media. Kahn’s hybrid media practice borr
 ows from pop vernacular\, documentary tropes\, improvisation\, comedy and e
 xperimental film/video praxis in its re-working of signs\, function and mea
 nings in narrativity. The work often inhabits spaces between fiction and do
 cument and stems from an extensive background in live performance. Integrat
 ing the scripted with the candid\, Kahn addresses issues like agency\, powe
 r\, trauma and the uses and failings of language.</p><p>"Stanya Kahn’s firs
 t solo exhibition at this gallery features three thirty- to forty-minute vi
 deos that smack of YouTube vernacular: handheld camera\; on-camera mic\; fo
 otage of friends\, family\, and little kids playing piano. Closer observati
 on reveals masterful application of Eisensteinian editing\, with meticulous
 ly choreographed sound tracks and threads of epistemological ruminations th
 at indicate a philosophical conscientiousness that’s often overlooked in co
 nversations about Kahn’s work. Each video canvasses the concerns and coping
  mechanisms of a contemporary subject who is forging her way through a worl
 d in crisis. Before you roll your eyes at the apparent pedantry of it all\,
  consider that each work is peppered with slyly subversive jokes––about but
 ts\, blondes\, and sex––as well as remarkable personal stories and an impre
 ssive stream of eclectic facts about animals\, ecology\, and health. Kahn’s
  characters are contemporary flaneurs\, and each is steadfast on a physical
  or linguistic dérive that takes the viewer through narratives of mortality
 \, trauma\, family\, and the ethics of civic and ecological responsibility.
 "<br /><em>Micol Hebron\, Stanya Kahn\, Critics Pick\, Artforum\, 2010<br /
 ></em><br />In addition to her solo work\, Kahn has been in collaborative t
 eams with artist Harry Dodge and with the performance company CORE. Her sol
 o and collaborative works have shown in numerous venues nationally and inte
 rnationally including The Whitney Biennial (2008)\; The California Biennial
  (2010)\; MoMA/NY\; MOCA/LA\; The Getty Center/LA\, the Hammer Museum/LA\; 
 the Sundance Film Festival\; Migrating Forms Film Festival\; the Center for

  Center for Art/Vilnius\, Lithuania\; MIT\, Cambridge\; ICA\, Philadelphia\
 ; Kunstalle\, Bonn\, Germany\; The Brooklyn Museum\, NY\; The Hayward Galle
 ry\, London\; Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles and Elizabeth Dee Gallery/NY\,
  among many others. Recently solo shows include the New Museum in New York 
 and currently on view at Cornerhouse in Manchester is a survey of her solo 
 works from 2008 to the present with an accompanying book. Kahn is a 2012 Gu

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Film screening curated by AHVA graduate st
 udents</p><p>We perform our daily routines in environments\, virtual or rea
 l\, that record and use our images\, information\, and biographic details i
 n diverse ways. Aware that surveillance cameras and tracking systems are pe
 rvasive\, we habitually filter out their presence regardless. Our ability t
 o tolerate and even flaunt this omnidirectional\, surveillant gaze relies o
 n assumptions about the frequency and banality of surveillance activity. As
  society moves towards a structure that is fully regulated\, tracked\, and 
 documented\, the volumes of image-data required are furiously expanding\, f
 illing up ever-accumulating archives that paradoxically function to erase a
 s much as to preserve.</p><p>The artists in this program find ways to make 
 this seemingly inadequate data speak\, to locate the extraordinary within t
 he trivial. In Christina Battle’s short video\, the CIA’s legacy of spying 
 and the mysterious secrecy of its archive visually erupts\, only to reveal 
 a paucity of information and the mundane labour of filing. John Smith likew
 ise offers minimal yet pointed visual imagery while producing a personal na
 rrative that navigates the increasing pressures of state surveillance accum
 ulating outside the frame. And in her experimental documentary Rebecca Baro
 n explores historical precedents for public surveillance through the twinne
 d developments of lens-based camera technology and the mass observation mov
 ement. In each of the works\, the technologies of surveillance reveal thems
 elves at once as personally subjective\, authoritatively powerful\, and det
 ermined by multiple\, unknowable agents. —  STEPHEN WICHUK AND JAYNE WILKIN

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Noontime Artist Talk</strong></p><
 p><strong>Elizabeth Zvonar</strong> is a Vancouver-based artist whose work 
 embraces a variety of media—namely sculpture\, installation and collage. Wh
 ile playful in her use of materials and juxtaposition of imagery\, her work
  is socially engaged and aware. In her words\, her work opens up “a complex
  layering of possibility.” Combining elements as diverse as art history and
  fashion\, her work probes metaphysical issues through a plethora of approa
 ches: an aesthetic of the sixties\, an interest in gesture\, projections of
  our imagination into an unknown future\, the sexual representation of wome
 n in advertising and art history.</p><p>She graduated from Emily Carr Unive
 rsity in 2002. She has since exhibited widely both nationally and internati
 onally at venues such as Contemporary Art Gallery\, Artspeak\, Morris and H
 elen Belkin Gallery\, Presentation House Gallery\, all in Vancouver\; Merce
 r Union\, Oakville Galleries\, Daniel Faria Gallery\, all in Toronto\; Coha
 n and Leslie\, New York\; Sign Gaienmae Gallery\, Tokyo and at Museum van H
 edendaagse Kunst Antwerpen\, Mechelen\, Belgium. In 2008\, Zvonar was the i
 naugural artist at the Malaspina Print Research Residency where she worked 
 with Andrea Pinheiro and was an artist in residence at the Banff Centre for
  the Janice Kerbel led thematic\, Cosmic Ray Research.</p><p>Zvonar receive
 d the 2009 Mayor’s Award for emerging visual arts category\, the honoree of
  Marian Penner Bancroft. In 2010 she was invited as a guest speaker for the
  CCA Glasgow symposium\, How we go on now? with Faith Wilding and Kate Davi
 s to deliver a lecture on contemporary feminism. In 2011\, Zvonar received 
 the Emily Award\, Emily Carr University’s alumna award in recognition of ou
 tstanding achievement and later that year was included in Unreal at the Van
 couver Art Gallery\, a show that contextualizes contemporary practices and 
 their relationship to Surrealism. Coming up\, Zvonar will show a new body o
 f work this spring at Daniel Faria Gallery and later in the summer will lea
 d a thematic residency at Gibraltar Point titled The Future Is Coming Every
 day\; both in Toronto.</p>

 o codify social distinctions as natural ones</h4><p><strong>Dave Beech</str
 ong> is an artist in the collective Free (with Andy Hewitt and Mel Jordan)\
 , as well as a writer and curator. He studied painting at Leicester Polytec
 hnic and Cultural Theory the Royal College of Art\, where he researched the
  historical development of the concept of philistinism from Romanticism to 
 Postmodernism.</p><p>He has written widely on the politics of art\, includi
 ng ‘The Philistine Controversy’ (Verso\, 2002\, co-authored with John Rober
 ts) and editing a special edition of Third Text (‘Art\, Politics\, Resistan
 ce?’\, Vol 16\, Issue 4\, No 6)\, as well as the legacy of the Avant-Garde 
 and Conceptualism\, most recently in ‘Art and Text’ (Blackdog Books\, 2011)
 . He has also contributed to debates on participation and art’s publics\, i
 n books such as ‘In Search of Art’s New Publics’ and ‘The Pedagogical Turn’
 \, as well as being a founding editor of the journal ‘Art and the Public Sp
 here’ (Intellect Publishing\, from 2011). Other publications include the MI

 hibited at the Liverpool Biennial\, BAK\, Utrecht as part of the major rese
 arch project ‘The Former West’\, Smart Project Space\, Amsterdam\, and the 
 forthcoming Istanbul Biennial. He also curated the exhibition ‘We Are Gramm
 ar’ at the Pratt Institute\, New York 2011 (co-curator Paul O’Neill).</p><p
 ><em>“The first thing that I want to say about the manner in which art and 
 value converge is that to speak about values in art is to proceed without c
 ertainty. There is a palpable hesitancy in the manner by which values are a
 scribed to art. This\, I want to insist\, is not in any way as a sign of a 
 lack of commitment or lack of confidence but rather as a sign of one’s sens
 itivity. One speaks of value in art with a tone of studied indeterminacy. W
 hile art is a prominent public sphere in which value judgements are formed 
 and exchanged\, it is simultaneously so dominated by subjective and individ
 ual judgements that value\, we might say\, is often hedged out of existence
 . And yet\, this hedging is itself an embodiment of value. We need to think
  more carefully about the preeminence of hesitancy in artistic judgement in
  order to understand the kind of values that it promotes and how these valu
 es are embodied. A cynic might easily fashion a caricature of the dithering
  aesthete in order to call the whole enterprise into question but there is 
 something important in this indeterminacy\, something that any study of the
  relationship between art and value has to take seriously."</em></p><p>As p
 art of the <strong>Distinguished Visiting Artist Program</strong>\, Beech w
 ill discuss the historical and theoretical structure of his argument in Art
  and Value. Beech's book presents a sustained analysis of art's treatment (
 and mistreatment) by classical economics\, neoclassical economics\, and in 
 more recent years by the renewed interest in art demonstrated by finance ca
 pital and postfordist theory\, to offer a history of the contentious relati
 on between artistic and economic value as well as a critique of those theor
 etical motifs to which this relation has tended to be reduced in art theory
 .</p><p><em>"The history of the Marxist analysis of art has been firmly ali
 gned with the theory of art's commodification\, industrialization\, commerc
 ialization\, spectacularization and incorporation. My intention throughout 
 this book has been to explore art’s relationship to capitalism without rely
 ing on the established sociological methods of Western Marxism which have s
 upported the claim that art has been incorporated into capitalism without p
 roviding any economic proof that artistic production has been transformed i
 nto capitalist commodity production. My method\, here\, has been to establi
 sh art’s relationship to capitalism through an analysis of its relation to 
 capital. I have drawn on Marxism’s classical roots\, particularly the three
  volumes of Capital\, to investigate the economics of art and found that th
 e claims made by Western Marxism of art’s commodification within the Cultur
 e Industry has no basis in the actual economic conditions of artistic pract
 ice. The processes by which non-capitalist production is converted into cap
 italist production – which Marx theorized through the twin concepts of the 
 formal and real subsumption of labour under capital – has not taken place i
 n the case of art. Artists have not become wage labourers\, the means of pr
 oduction of art are not owned by the capitalist class\, no productive capit
 al plays any role whatsoever in the production of art. What’s more\, mercha
 nt capitalists do not purchase artworks as commodity-capital\, nor do artwo
 rks function conventionally or adequately as financial assets. As such\, ar
 tists and artworks encounter money in various forms\, but capital plays an 
 extremely limited role\, and in the majority of cases no role at all\, in t
 he production and circulation of art. While mainstream economics is happy t
 o assert that art is a commodity almost like any other\, the Marxist econom
 ic analysis of art demonstrates not only that art is economically exception
 al but that it is exceptional to the capitalist mode of production in parti
 cular."</em></p><p>(Excerpts from Art and Value\, Historical Materialism Bo

 cept of 'self-institutionalisation' during 1998 and 1999 in relation to the
  establishment with Henriette Heise of a project space\, Info Centre\, in E
 ast London. For us this was the start of a series of practical experiments 
 with the construction and use of institutions. Info Centre" was a combined 
 exhibition space\, archive and bookshop. The first 'info sheet' of the Info
  Centre stated: 'We are committed to an understanding of art practice that 
 is not exclusively related to the making of artworks\, but also includes th
 e establishing of institutions for the experience and use of art and genera
 lly the making of institutions for human life."</p><p>Behind this point of 
 view lay an uneasiness with the then pervasive notion of 'institutional cri
 tique'. What had began life in the 60s as an interesting new political prac
 tice and what had reappeared in the late 80s as an ideological critique\, h
 ad by the late 90s become ossified into a reflex towards\, rather than a pa
 ssionate refusal of\, power. The various modes of institutional critique ha
 d outlived any critical function and appeared increasingly blind to its soc
 ial\, historical and political context. The moments of revolution and renew
 al you find with early Conceptual Art and the Situationist International ha
 d disappeared. The institutional critique had lost its force as art institu
 tions adapted to these new forms of critique - as capital and its instituti
 ons often do. Those practising institutional critique found themselves depe
 ndent upon the very historical bourgeois art institutions they were purport
 ing to critique\, and that were\, anyway\, in the process of disappearing i
 n the course of the neoliberal restructuring of public institutions of the 
 90s. The critique was irredeemably complicit with art institutions as they 
 turned critique into new forms of spectacle. When we write 'art institution
 ' we refer to the socio-economic conglomerate of galleries\, foundations\, 
 museums\, institutes\, educational facilities\, magazines and councils that
  constitute the basis of the dominating understanding of art in a society. 
 Institutional critique and other anti-institutional practices of the late 9
 0s did not make these institutions more diverse and rich\, but instead ensu
 red the consolidation and concentration of power within an ever-narrowing s
 ystem."<br /><em>Jakob Jakobsen\, "Self-Institutionalisation\," Art Monthly
  July-August 2006</em></p><p>As part of the Distinguished Visiting Artist P
 rogram\, Jakobsen will discuss his ongoing research into the politics of pe
 dagogical systems and their intersection with the conditions of life. As pa
 rt of his visit\, he will be researching the Vancouver Free University that
  operated here between 1969 and 1974.</p><p>"The biopolitical moulding of b
 odies integrated with a rather crude sorting mechanism determined by econom
 ic powers and class is an increasingly transparent and evident worldwide pr
 ocess. What was formerly a part of social reproduction has become an import
 ant part of capitalist production and turning it into an expanding site of 
 capitalist accumulation. This is perhaps the main structural change since t
 he institutional landscape of the 1960s. There is nothing surprising to thi
 s\, but more and more people even within the middleclass are feeling the in
 herent sorting mechanisms imposed by institutional production of today as t
 hey enter the educational system. Franco Basaglia already pointed this out 
 in relation to the treatment of the mentally ill in Italy in the 1960s\, in
  stating that there were two kinds of psychiatry\, one for the rich and one
  for the poor. At the time he rejected any demands for reform\, his analysi
 s led to a call for 'The Destruction of the Mental Hospital as a place for 
 institutionalisation'. Joseph Berke's analysis of the State sanctioned Univ
 ersity leading to the establishment of the Antiuniversity had a similar rad
 icality: "The schools and universities are dead. They must be destroyed and
  rebuilt in our own terms. These sentiments reflect the growing belief of s
 tudents and teachers all over Europe and the United States as they strip as
 ide the academic pretensions from their 'institutions of higher learning' a
 nd see them for what they are – rigid training schools for the operation an
 d expansion of reactionary government\, business\, and military bureaucraci
 es."<br /><em>Jakob Jakobsen\, "The pedagogy of negating the institution -

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>March 8 - 9\, 2013</p><p>Keynote Speaker: 
 <strong>Joshua Clover</strong> (UC Davis)</p><p>In the past two years there
  has been a substantial rise in the visibility of protest movements\, often
  specifically local in their demands yet global in their implications and c
 onsequences. From the ongoing social uprisings addressing democracy in the 
 Middle East\, to the concerns with direct democracy in the Québec student s
 trike\, to growing protests against austerity measures in Europe\, and the 
 Idle No More movement here in Canada\, the subjects of protest are numerabl
 e and varied. In scale\, location and ideology\, struggle is driven by indi
 vidual desires as much as by multitudinous subjects and might respond to is
 sues of politics\, economy\, arts\, ethics\, gender\, education\, social ju
 stice\, and other institutions of human life. The unpredictable continuity 
 of the Occupy movement across diverse locations\, temporalities and topics 
 speaks to the mutable aspect of contestation and the potential of subversiv
 e agitation.</p><p>This year\, the <strong>36th Annual UBC Art History Grad
 uate Symposium</strong> takes up this critical juncture by considering hist
 orical and contemporaneous modes of claiming dissensus\, of acting and thin
 king against structures of power\, and of transgressing the limitations alr
 eady inscribed in our surroundings. The symposium consists of nine presenta
 tions by promising graduate students from across North America and a keynot
 e presentation by Joshua Clover\, poet\, critic and professor of English li
 terature and critical theory at the University of California Davis. He will
  address the current relation of communism to anarchism in contemporary spa
 ces of struggle in a presentation entitled “A Story of Two Squares\, or\, P
 ost-Industrial Communism.”  <strong>Jaleh Mansoor</strong>\, art historian 
 and assistant professor in the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and T
 heory (AHVA) at UBC\, will moderate his talk and the following discussion.<
 /p><p>In conjunction with the academic symposium\, the concurrent exhibitio
 n Resonating Existent(s) brings together eight\, Canada-based artists who a
 ddress contestation by questioning the material and immaterial instruments 
 of protest. The closing reception of the exhibition is scheduled for March 
 8th\, 4:00–6:00pm\, at the AHVA Gallery (Rm 112) in the Koerner Library\, a
 nd will include a performance by the <strong>Git Hayetsk Dancers</strong>.<
 /p><p>You are warmly invited to our two-day long journey of intellectual di
 alogue and critical reflection on the issues involved in the tensions betwe
 en aesthetics and politics\, education in universities and activism on stre
 et. Please make our event more engaging with your presence!</p><p><em>S</em

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs April 5 - 27\, 2013. Open
 ing reception: April 5\, 8 PM - 12 AM</h4><p>Gallery FUKAI presents <em>pre
 tty boys kill me\,</em> a solo exhibition of drawings by Roselina Hung.  He
 r work continues to reference both public and personal histories through ne
 w drawings that address the subtle distinction between desire and obsession
 \, with soft-featured young men serving as muse.</p><p>Poster-sized drawing
 s of many pretty boy faces\, arranged in pattern\, present an aesthetic ide
 al of beauty.  Each face was meticulously drawn one at a time\, only then w
 ere sections erased to reveal snippets from text messages sent and received
  during Hung’s romantic relationships.  While formulaic repetition provides
  the drawings a mechanical tone\, their subject\, their dimensions\, and th
 e use of coloured-pencil are reminiscent of the lovesick teenager.  A serie
 s of smaller portraits blend multiple faces to create monstrous amalgams – 
 desire’s derangement of the senses.  One gallery wall is covered with wallp
 aper Hung created that was inspired by Charles Dana Gibson’s ‘Design for Wa
 llpaper – Suitable for a Bachelor Apartment’ (1902).  Gibson’s satirical in
 terpretation of romantic longing and female beauty is here replaced by an e
 arnest look at male beauty as the object of affection.</p><p>Process and ob
 ject are both important in this exhibition.  At the outset\, Hung was inter
 ested in whether her drawing capability and the quality of the work would s
 uffer because of the intense repetition.  The show’s ambiguous title\, pret
 ty boys kill me\, gestures at the project’s and Hung’s masochism.  Having d
 rawn about 300 faces\, Hung injured her right hand and was unable to draw f
 or several months.  To be sure\, pretty boys kill me speaks to the deleteri
 ous effect of obsessive desire.  Love becomes an inoperable illness that ca
 nnot be removed without destroying the patient.  The drawings touch equally
 \, however\, on the enabling aspect of obsession\, its ability to focus the
  senses and intellect in pursuit of its object.</p><p><strong>Roselina Hung
 </strong> lives and works in Vancouver.  She received her MA Fine Art from 
 Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design\, London\, UK and her BFA fro
 m the University of British Columbia.  She also spent a year abroad at L’Ec

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening Reception: Thursday\, April 11\, 
 6:00-9:00 pm. Exhibition runs April 12 - May 11\, 2013</h4><p>Drawn from th
 e collection of the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, <em>Full Frontal 
 </em>explores the relationship between masculinity and male sexuality\, and
  why the image of a naked man\, baring all\, is one of society’s last taboo
 s. “Manhood” in our society refers to both male identity and the physical p
 enis. The exhibition couples images of the phallus—the socially approved sy
 mbol of male power – with images of the flesh—the often censored penis that
  our society carefully regulates.</p><p>This exhibition questions a masculi
 nity that upholds and is controlled by the idea of the phallus. Gritty and 
 real\, the works in this group exhibition present different perspectives on
  the male body and alternative modes of engaging with male sexuality where 
 the idea of masculinity becomes masculinities.</p><p><em>Full Frontal</em> 
 liberates the literal organ from the concept of the phallus through play\, 
 vulnerability\, violence\, love\, desire\, fantasy\, and sex. The exhibitio
 n includes works by artists: Iain Baxter\, Tom Dean\, Russell FitzGerald\, 
 Noam Gonick\, jess\, Brian Jungen\, Bruce LaBruce\, Attila Richard Lukacs\,
  Robert Mapplethorpe\, Eric Metcalfe\, Michael Morris\, Jack Shadbolt\, Wol
 fgang Tillmans\, Vincent Trasov\, Joyce Wieland\, and others.</p><p>Full Fr
 ontal is curated by <strong>Katie Schroeder</strong>\, a Master’s Candidate

 r />facsimile 612-605-4538</p><p>The group exhibition Plaisance engages con
 temporary artistic practices that move in and out of ethnographic framing\,
  countering progressive and predominant codes of representation by inhabiti
 ng a secondary register of historical erasures\, seeming blankness\, and ap
 hasic or amnesiac gaps within cultural memory. Giving living form\, color\,
  and voice to a resistant uncanny\, Plaisance redirects affective forms of 
 visibility and legibility to trouble political signification\, referentiali
 ty\, and presumed narratives of historiography.</p><p>While the exhibition’
 s title echoes the popular entertainments and mimetic objects of fleeting d
 esire associated with pleasantries\, distractions\, and trifling objects\, 
 it also evokes a more archaic understanding of plaisance as a place affordi
 ng contemplation alongside a prevailing architecture—not unlike the garden 
 pavilion or Folie structures of eighteenth century leisure. Within the exhi
 bition at Midway\,plaisance becomes a place of rupture and reorganized look
 ing that engenders thick descriptions of gesture\, object\, and image\, ena
 cting an intricacy of distinctions over the sweep of generalizing abstracti
 ons.</p><p>Sven Augustijnen’s Les Demoiselles de Bruxelles series\, 2008\, 
 for example\, portrays African prostitutes in self-selected night poses in 
 the streets of Brussels\, framed in dialectical tension with parallel night
 time images of monuments\, buildings\, and interiors that trace remnants of
  King Leopold II’s exploitative reign and Belgium’s colonial past held over
  into an uneasy present tense. A book of the same title extends Augustijnen
 ’s exploration to coincident unravelings\, including the irony that streetw
 alkers should work the Avenue Louise commemorating Leopold’s mother while K
 arl Marx penned the Manifesto of the Communist Partyunder threat of imminen
 t exile blocks away. The dispersed subject of Henrik Olesen’s A.T.\, 2012\,
  meanwhile\, orbits around British mathematician Alan Turing (1912-1954). L
 auded as a patriot for his wartime code-breaking and seminal computing inno
 vations\, Turing’s later punishment for being homosexual included forced ho
 rmone treatments\, leading to what Olesen has described as a loss of body\,
  and his ultimate suicide. A composite portrait composed of text\, collage\
 , and quotations\, A.T. reveals unified historical subjects to be the norma
 tive and coercive fictions they are.</p><p>In Natascha Sadr Hagighian’s The
  Microscope\, 2006\, it is the eyepiece of the titular apparatus that gets 
 examined and inverted. Wryly replaced with a speaker emitting a vocoder ver
 sion of the pop song Every Breath You Take\, the resulting lilt of Sadr Hag
 highian’s vision machine is accompanied by an adjacent booklet chronicling 
 her conversation with Evelyn Fox-Keller\, professor of History and Philosop
 hy of Science at MIT and author of The Biological Gaze. Together they analy
 ze the semiotic sway over our everyday retinal intake and customary looking
 . A different step-by-step adjustment and illusionistic breakdown animates 
 the referential impasse of Willem de Rooij’s five-part abstract weaving Sil
 ver to Gold\, 2009/2011\, wherein a gradual manipulation of machined linen 
 transitions from silver to gold. Enacting a refusal of staid terms of abstr
 action or symbolic value\, the large-scale textile panels readily absorb al
 l surface light while deflecting signification. Subtle and exact in its lit
 eral gradation\, Silver to Gold is an incisive yet withholding companion wh
 en compared to the intricate flower bouquet works often shown alongside de 
 Rooij’s textile spectrums.</p><p>An effacement of a more archival impulse p
 ropels <strong>Gareth James</strong>’ photographic collages and provides a 
 transition to works on view in Midway’s adjoining library.Untitled (Young C
 laude Lévi-Strauss with Monkey\, Fragment Spirals)\, 2011\, for example\, i
 mposes a collaged interpretation of an unexplained pedagogical diagram embe
 dded in a late photograph of the Marxist philosopher Louis Althusser. Excer
 pting an untethered symbol made by a thinker who decried the possibility of
  any epistemological coherence in postwar culture\, James superimposes the 
 oscillating image onto a photograph of a young Claude Lévi-Strauss\, taken 
 at the time of writing Tristes Tropiques\, his groundbreaking anthropologic
 al travelogue of time spent in the Amazon basin and Brazil. As with Olesen’
 s prying apart and laying bare the fictions of biographical representation\
 , James lets the lost diagram of Althusser’s recalcitrant formulation obscu
 re and darken the figure of assumed methodological authority and innovation
  in Lévi-Strauss.</p><p>In the here and elsewhere of Tamara Henderson’s fil
 m Neon Figure\, 2013\, the irrational takes recombinant form in the “touris
 t night” of a collapse and build scenography that savors the absence of ana
 lytic consciousness\, while Jonathas de Andrade’s 4\,000 Shots\, 2010\, use
 s a roll of Super-8 film to obsessively capture anonymous male faces in the
  streets of Buenos Aires\, compressing frame by frame an aphasic climate of
  imminent disappearance and historical depletion. In contrast\, a re-presen
 ting of pose and encoded gesture is given further amplitude in the territor
 ial maneuvers of Alejandro Cesarco’s Broodthaers\, 2008\, which succinctly 
 adapts and recasts a mixed utterance of warning and defiance\, even as Flor
 ian Zeyfang’s Introduction to a Small History of Photography – Formalist He
 ady Pattern Version\, 2008\, revisits the books and embedded images that in
 spired Walter Benjamin’s 1931 essay\, Kleine Geschichte der Photographie\, 
 adapting the speculative register of Benjamin’s experimental montage form t
 o locate a renewed oversensitivity within today’s inscribed and increasingl
 y pervasive image literacy.</p><p>Accompanied by an exhibition catalog\, Pl
 aisance further explores the continued relevance of such concepts as “secon
 dary explanation\,” originally formulated by anthropologist Franz Boas\, an
 d will consider how the genealogical imperative active within such artistic
  practices contributes to an articulation of ethnographic framing as a hist
 ory of the present.</p><p>- Fionn Meade</p><p><em>Photo: Untitled (Young Cl

 \, Curator Charles H. Scott Gallery at Emily Carr University of Art + Desig
 n\, <strong>Saturday\, May 11\, 12:30 - 5 pm</strong></p><p><strong>Carlos 
 Colin</strong> is a Mexican-born artist whose research focuses on how “art 
 objects” can create links between Latin American-produced art and Latin Ame
 rican societies\, in particular in relation to Mexico. His work is an inves
 tigation into how artists use local knowledge\, realities and histories in 
 social movements\, struggles and subversions as new expressions of social a
 nd cultural progress using language as knowledge.</p><p><strong>Kate Hender
 son’s </strong>current work Demolition is a series of degraded Internet-sou
 rced digital photographs and videos that depict the destruction of Eastman 
 Kodak factories in the United States and Europe. Henderson’s practice inves
 tigates the transition from analog to digital in lens-based technologies wh
 ile considering the economy and poetics of the circulating\, degraded image
 . Additionally\, she is concerned with the recent phenomenon of the collect
 ively photographed and shared image of spectacle\, and how digitally-mediat
 ed viewing has altered forms of subjectivity\, perception and experience.<b
 r /><strong><br />Christopher Howison</strong> is a Scottish-born artist wh
 ose work concentrates on the relationship of the viewer to the work. Workin
 g primarily in sculpture\, he produces intricate casts from the body and in
 stalls them in a way that forces the viewer to attempt to reorient himself 
 in order to properly inspect the work\, thereby challenging the supposition
  that it is the viewer’s right to unimpeded access to both the physical wor
 k and its intended meaning.</p><p>The work of <strong>Erin Siddall</strong>
  investigates how the artist can find contradictory or complex methods for 
 showing the relationship between the viewer and the viewed\, which can be c
 haracterized as a tension between inside and out\, particularly as it relat
 es to film and other lens-based art practices. Her video works push the vie
 wer to acknowledge the limits of their vision\, through discomfort or inabi
 lity\, and question normative ways of thinking of the eyes or seeing.</p><p
 >A native of Los Angeles\, <strong>Tristan Sober-Blodgett’s</strong> work i
 s text-based though he employs a range of materials and processes including
  ink on paper\, printmaking\, body works and installation. A preoccupation 
 with writing\, grammar and code dominate the work\, stressing the analogous
  relationship between linguistic intelligibility and the way the body is “r
 ead.”</p><p><strong>Stephen Wichuk’s</strong> video installations restage a
  body of sight gags and movement tropes borrowed from the history of cinema
 . These filmic moments are often utopic representations of labour which are
  themselves crafted using the laborious techniques of early animation. As s
 tudies of the cinematic movement\, Wichuk’s work makes us aware of the dura
 tion congealed within the animated form. In watching the work\, the viewer 
 flips between illusion and knowledge of that illusion’s artifice.</p><p><em

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opens Thursday\, May 23rd\, 7-9 pm. To Ju
 ne 29\, 2013.</h4><p><strong>Natasha McHardy</strong> and <strong>Marina Ro
 y</strong> started working together to produce video works as the artist-du
 o Roy & McHardy in 2003. While maintaining their own separate practices ove
 r the past few years\, their artwork continues to share an interest in mate
 riality\, craft\, surreal and folk sensibilities\, and gender/race/class is
 sues. McHardy’s new body of work incorporates recurring motifs within a the
 atrical stage\, including pools\, cacti\, palm trees\, screens\, animals\, 
 and kitsch icons.  These surreal relief constructions combine abstraction a
 nd representation\, drawing and collage\, exoticism and colonial histories.
  Roy’s work explores the construction of grotesque emblems and rebuses\, us
 ing an archive of images that recall her past animations. Human\, animal\, 
 plant\, mineral entities combine\, breaking down taxonomic categories betwe
 en living and non-living entities. Mining a naïve aesthetic\, both of their
  practices question hierarchies within art historical and market systems\, 
 combining high and low art traditions\, all the while reflecting on the nat
 ure of power structures that fix life into an allegorical image.</p><p>McHa

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Gu Xiong: 24 years after Tiananman</h4><p
 >AHVA Visual Arts Faculty member <strong>Gu Xiong</strong> was first invite
 d to The Banff Centre for a year-long residency in 1986 through a cultural 
 exchange with China. He remembers being lonely when he first arrived here. 
 “I came without English and I was isolated here\,” he says. “I was hard-wor
 king\, but depressed. Then\, later in 1987 I started to open up\, and I did
  some smaller work\, and then some larger work\, installation and performan
 ce. So that turned out to be a great year for me.” He created a work called
  Enclosures\, which he installed outside what was then Donald Cameron Hall.
 </p><p>Gu returned to China after that residency\, and soon found himself s
 wept up in the student protests in Beijing that led to the riots and killin
 gs in Tiananman Square. The Banff Centre stepped in again\, sponsoring a mo
 ve to Canada in August of 1989\, and he created another work here\, now in 
 the collection of the National Gallery of Canada. “This shows how people us
 ed their own bicycles to try to stop the army tanks on the street. But the 
 tanks just drove over the bicycles\, and I stood there and watched it happe
 n. I promised to make a piece about that time.”</p><p>This spring\, Gu was 
 back at the Centre for the first time in 24 years\, working with a group of
  artists on a project called Immersion Emergencies that’s all about water. 
 A professor in the Visual Arts department at the University of British Colu
 mbia since 2000\, he’s  been working on water- and river-themed installatio
 ns for the past few years\, linking the Fraser River delta with the Yangtze
  River (and the gigantic Three Gorges Dam) in much of his recent work.</p><
 p>In Banff\, he started work on an ambitious installation to bring attentio
 n to a recent environmental disaster – 16\,000 dead pigs were dumped in the
  Huangpu River\, a tributary of the Yangtze near Gu’s home city of Chongqin
 g. “The government tested the water and said it was fine to drink\,” he say
 s about the story\, which made international news. “I wanted this work to l
 ink to a larger vision around the world about water\, pollution\, and urban
  issues.” When it’s finished\, the installation will include 16\,000 cerami
 c pigs in 1\,000 commercial water jugs.</p><p><em>Photo:Gu Xiong with his i

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Book Launch</h4><p>Ever heard of Karachi?
  It lies 11\,700 kilometers from Vancouver\, on the coast of the Arabian Se
 a in Pakistan. For those curious to explore the city but unable to afford t
 he airfare or keep hearing that it’s too unsafe to travel there\, here is y
 our lucky day! Hot off the press\, <em>Right to the City: Travel Guide to K
 arachi</em>will take you on an imaginative journey right to the city.</p><p
 ><em>The Right to the City: Travel Guide to Karachi</em> explores the exper
 ience of living in the city of Karachi\, Pakistan and the production\, repr
 esentation and contestation of its spaces. Six Pakistani artists – Bani Abi
 di\, Manizhe Ali\, Sara Khan\, Seher Naveed\, Shayan Rajan<strong>i</strong
 > and Roohi Ahmed – through their works and texts presented in this book\, 
 claim the right to represent their city at a time when the media renders it
 s realities opaque and remote. While media reportage on the endless violenc
 e and conflict continue to produce representations of the city as a dangero
 us battleground\, this publishing project seeks to repopulate Karachi as a 
 lived and embodied place.</p><p><em>The Right to the City: Travel Guide to 
 Karachi</em> transforms readers into imaginary tourists and enables them to
  explore the contested geographies of a city often categorised as “failed a
 nd feral” by Western standards. The book appropriates the popular medium of
  a travel guide to give visibility and access to surprisingly alternative v
 ersions of Karachi that are otherwise continually silenced or overlooked. B
 ringing forth conflicting images that resist fixed representations and illu
 sory stereotypes\, the project critically questions the dominant narratives
  that have come to represent our perception of Karachi\, and allows the cit
 y to emerge as lived spaces of sociality and struggle.</p><p>Curated by <st
 rong>Shahana Rajani\,</strong> an MA candidate in the Critical and Curatori
 al Studies program at the University of British Columbia.</p><p><em>This pr
 oject was made possible through support from the Killy Foundation and the A

 y\, Visual Art and Theory in collaboration with the Morris and Helen Belkin

 alism\, but on the events caused by it. At first glance it would seem count
 er---­‐intuitive. Colonialism has been the cause of the suffering\, oppress
 ion and violence perpetuated against Aboriginal people in this and many oth
 er countries\, for centuries. But attributing the rise of resistance\, acti
 vism and the art associated with it to colonialism itself\, is disingenuous
 . Societies\, and the people in them\, are changed by events. It is the int
 eractions of people which manifest the destructive ideologies inherent in c
 olonialism. By concentrating on events\, we humanize the process\, allowing
  a more nuanced and human response. We can see it was people who committed 
 atrocities against others\, not the ideology behind it. And we can see the 
 presence of real people that stand up and resist it.”</p><p>Ryerson Image C

 , an Ontario-based novelist and Gestalt therapist\, presents A Sausage Séan
 ce with Bertolt Brecht.  Sheard enacts a two-chair dialogue experiment with
  late playwright Brecht\, the protagonist of her recent novel KRANK: Love i
 n the New Dark Times.  In KRANK\, Brecht's time and Sheard's own come clash
 ing together in Toronto's infamous G20 riots and later\, in a trip back in 
 time to Berlin.</p><p>ANNA MARIE REPSTOCK\, a Vancouver-based artist\, pain

 VA MLADENOVIC to present Taming The Hydra:  a quiet performance by a virtua
 l head assembly\, honoring Dantika\, daughter of the King of Kosala (a dist
 rict in India at the time of the Buddha). One day Dantika observes an eleph
 ant obeying its master’s commands.  She reflects upon the situation\, "seei
 ng what was wild before gone tame under human hands"\, and becomes a fully 
 enlightened arahant.</p><p><strong>KATE HENDERSON</strong> is a Vancouver-b
 ased artist and photographer now completing an MFA at UBC.  For Not Sent Le
 tters & Guests she continues to navigate transitional spaces between the an
 alog and the digital in relation to lens-based technologies. Kate will depl
 oy monologue narration\, found imagery and projection to consider how these
  mechanical changes are impacting our bodies\, perceptions\, and experience
 s.</p><p>NEIL EUSTACHE & CHARLENE VICKERS debut a work as part of their ong
 oing Cool Indians On Main Street project. Since 2007\, spontaneous meetings
  have taken place over coffee\, sandwiches and the photo documentation of p
 assers-by from a bench at the corner of Main and 13th in Vancouver.  Not Se
 nt Letters Comrades are invited to stand as participants and audience membe
 rs during the presentation of a mighty\, towering bench inside VIVO. Improv
 ised performance\, storytelling and occasional heckling are to be expected.
 </p><p>SARAH SHAMASH is a Vancouver-based artist experimenting with mapping
  strategies to convey experiential knowledge through everyday life.  For No
 t Sent Letters & Guests she presents the letters A\, B and I from her ongoi
 ng modular series The Alphabet Project.  Each letter/piece deploys its own 
 language and narrative: A is for Aerial\, B is for Bathtub\, and I is for I
 dle No More.  The 26 letters of the alphabet will eventually be assembled t
 hrough a website\, allowing users to spell words and generate edited sequen
 ces with them.</p><p>KORI MIYANISHI postponed a Not Sent Letters & Guests p
 erformance in June to attend the birth of his child!  He returns this Septe

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Public lecture\, by Italian Marxist theor
 ist Franco “Bifo” Berardi in conjunction with Due to Injuries… at 221A Gall
 ery</h4><p>221A is pleased to present <em>Due to Injuries…</em>\, an exhibi
 tion of new work by Vancouver-based artists Brady Cranfield and Jamie Hilde
 r. <em>Due to Injuries...</em> continues a trajectory in their work that en
 gages what they refer to as the Economist’s Aesthetic: a mode of encounteri
 ng and representing the world through the forms\, operations\, and prioriti
 es of the economy.</p><p><em>Due to Injuries…</em> examines the often-incid
 ental cultural expressions of finance and economics. These fields typically
  claim a position of impartiality\, focusing on the data of the market\, wh
 ich is often perceived to be objective. Filtered\, framed\, and marked by i
 deology\, however\, this data is regularly instrumentalized as an alibi for
  complex social relations. The cultural products of finance and economics a
 re not simply epiphenomena – curious side effects of otherwise professional
  activities. Rather\, they also offer unique access back into the social ar
 ticulation of these rarified practices\, which impact everyday life.</p><p>
 The exhibition is presented as part of SWARM 2013\, festival of artist-run 
 culture\, and is free and open to the public and will run until October 19.
  Image above: Cranfield and Hilder\, Poster (2013).</p><p>The exhibition is
  accompanied by a free public lecture\, co-presented with the Vancity Offic
 e for Community Engagement\, by Italian Marxist theorist Franco “Bifo” Bera
 rdi\, to be held at the Djavad Mowafaghian Cinema\, SFU campus in the Woodw
 ard’s complex at 149 West Hastings St.\, Vancouver\, on September 14th\, at
  7pm (Seating is by first-come-first-serve and is limited). In the weeks fo
 llowing the lecture\, four respondents will deliver talks at 221A in two se
 ssions\, <strong>Jaleh Mansoor</strong> (AHVA Art History Faculty member) a
 nd Enda Brophy on October 1st and Steve Collis and Cecily Nicholson on Octo
 ber 8th\, both starting at 7pm.</p><p>Throughout August\, 221A hosted a wee
 kly reading group based on Berardi’s most recent book\, The Uprising: On Po
 etry and Finance. Written in the wake of Occupy Wall Street and the Arab Sp
 ring\, the book seeks to offer methods for thinking outside of what Berardi
  outlines as semiocapitalism\, using poetry as a metaphor for resistance. F

SUMMARY: Blake Rayne — A Whole New Season of Lost
DESCRIPTION: “Sleep is the last ungentrified neighborhood” Blake Rayne has 
 exhibited his work throughout the United States and Europe for the last 15 
 years. Since the mid-1990’s Rayne’s work has contributed to transformations
  in the field of art\, and specifically painting\, primarily through his co

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>“Sleep is the last ungentrified neighborh
 ood”</h4><p><strong>Blake Rayne</strong> has exhibited his work throughout 
 the United States and Europe for the last 15 years. Since the mid-1990's Ra
 yne's work has contributed to transformations in the field of art\, and spe
 cifically painting\, primarily through his consistent and varied approaches
  to putting pressure on what counts as painting. His work is included in va
 rious public collections\, including the Whitney Museum of American Art\, a
 nd the Museum of Modern Art in New York. He has taught extensively over the
  last ten years\, including\, most recently\, as Professor and Director of 
 Graduate Studies at Columbia University\, NY. Recent solo exhibitions inclu
 de "Wild Country" at Campoli Presti in 2012\, and\, opening on Friday Septe
 mber 28 at 1301PE in Los Angeles\, a solo exhibition of new paintings.</p><
 p><em>Description</em>\, (alongside argumentation\, exposition\, and narrat
 ion) is one of the four modalities of rhetoric: a familiar\, even sedate co
 ncept. But within the ongoing crisis of critical artistic practice\, it is 
 a concept that has recently become embroiled in deeply contentious argument
 s: polemically posed above and against the Modern practices of critical ana
 lysis in the work of someone like Bruno Latour. Within Rayne's practice\, d
 escription is an unruly affair too (making texts like this one a difficult 
 proposition):</p><blockquote><p>One way to approach Blake Rayne’s second so
 lo exhibition at Miguel Abreu Gallery is to unpack two concepts which have 
 long dominated his thinking about art and culture in general: cultural abst
 raction and scripts. He himself offered what must be considered his most ex
 plicit description of the latter term in a press release that was available
  only for the first few days of the exhibition prior to being replaced by a
  subsequent revision.</p><p>“Select a fabric\,” “Cut to size\,” “Mark off t
 he pictorial space\,” “Fold. Paint. Unfold.” “Re-hang\,” “Reconfigure\,” “S
 ew. Stretch. Mark again. Crate. Ship. Place in the gallery. Unpack it or no
 t … Hang it or not … Sell it or not …”.</p><p>A script\, considered as a no
 un\, is familiar enough as a stage in cultural production underlying the re
 alization of a performative event\, theatrical\, or cinematic\, or a set of
  formalized instructions in the realm of conceptual art. The idea of script
  in Rayne’s work carries its productive moment over from the preparatory st
 age\, refusing to relinquish its verb form and its ossification into the st
 atic form of the noun.</p><p>— Sarina Basta\, Cut Pieces\, Texte zur Kunst 
 #70\, May 2008</p></blockquote><p>Rayne himself refers to two scripts he en
 countered while studying at CalArts in the 1990s frequently enough that we 
 can consider them formative - we can axiomatically reduce them to the propo
 sitions that institutional structures might be subjected to work by the sub
 ject\, and that the subject might be structured by work by structures. And 
 with what Rayne analyzed as the disappearance of appropriate platforms for 
 experimental film\, Rayne turned to what he describes as the hysteric pract
 ice of painting.</p><p>Rayne's practice subsequently takes its distance fro
 m the dominant positions of the 1990s and 2000s\, (between neo-institutiona
 l critique's progressive impulse to make the institution better\, and the v
 arious forms of negotiated complicity in relational aesthetics). Suspended 
 between two critical procedures that could no longer be inhabited\, Rayne h
 as preferred instead to throw a little light into dark corners and invest i
 n cataloging processes of deflation\, assisted by anything from histories o
 f art\, cinema\, psychoanalysis or linguistics\, post-punk anger music\, B-
 sides\, and sleep\, all while reviving performative strategies of "saying n
 o."</p><h4>Weblinks</h4><p>Johanna Burton on Blake Rayne<br /><a href="http

 ver\, Beat Nation features painting\, sculpture\, installation\, performanc

 ld a round table discussion on Thursday\, December 5 as well as a special N

 at Nation is co-curated by Kathleen Ritter\, Associate Curator (former)\, V
 ancouver Art Gallery\, and Tania Willard\, a Secwepemc artist\, designer an
 d curator. The Montréal presentation was coordinated by Mark Lanctôt\, Cura
 tor\, Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal.</p><p>Since the early 1990s\, h
 ip hop has been a driving force of activism for urban Aboriginal youth in c
 ommunities across the continent. The roots of this music have been influent
 ial across disciplines and have been transformed to create dynamic forums f
 or storytelling and indigenous languages\, as well as new modes of politica
 l expression. In the visual arts\, artists remix\, mash up and weave togeth
 er the old with the new\, the rural with the urban\, traditional and contem
 porary as a means to rediscover and reinterpret Aboriginal culture within t
 he shifting terrain of the mainstream.</p><p>While this exhibition takes it
 s starting point from hip hop\, it branches out to include pop culture\, gr
 affiti\, fashion and other elements of urban life. Artists create unique cu
 ltural hybrids that include graffiti murals with Haida figures\, sculptures
  carved out of skateboard decks and live video remixes with Hollywood films
 \, to name a few. Beat Nation brings together artists from across the conti
 nent—from the West Coast as far north as Alaska\, as far east as Labrador a
 nd south to New Mexico—and reveals the shared connections between those wor
 king in vastly different places.</p><p>As Aboriginal identity and culture c
 ontinue to change\, and as artists reinvent older traditions into new forms
  of expression\, their commitment to politics\, to storytelling\, to Aborig
 inal languages\, to the land and rights remains constant\, whether stated w
 ith drum skins or turntables\, natural pigments or spray paint\, ceremonial

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs November 7\, 2013 to Febr
 uary 2\, 2014</h4><p><em>and Materials and Money and Crisis</em> is a group
  exhibition that serves as an experimental proposition about the matter of 
 capital as it exists in the artwork. Matter here has a double meaning. On t
 he one hand flows of material and money can serve as subject matter for art
 work. More importantly for this exhibition however\, is the speculative que
 stion of what relationship the physical matter from which the artwork is bu
 ilt has to the dislocation of capital from production.</p><p>“Materials”\, 
 and “money”\, and “crisis” are terms that demarcate a historical period in 
 which financial systems have served to abstract notions of value. These ter
 ms function equally as key vectors in the work of the artists included in t
 his exhibition for whom the question is not how to represent these conditio
 ns and their relations\, but how the art work already exists within and thr
 ough these processes.</p><p>The exhibition puts newly commissioned works al
 ongside historical positions\, offering up a variety of artistic ways of re
 sponding to the matter of capital. Curated by Richard Birkett\, curator at 
 Artists Space\, New York\, the project was developed out of a dialogue with
  New York based artist Sam Lewitt\, and will feature new work by Lewitt\, a
 long with other artists including <strong>Gareth James </strong>(AHVA Visua

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs November 14\, 2013 to Jan
 uary 25\, 2014</h4><p><em>D’UN DISCOURS QUI NE SERAIT PAS DU SEMBLANT / ACT
 ORS\, NETWORKS\, THEORIES </em></p><p>A gap often manifests itself between 
 the publication of a text in one language and that of its translation\, or 
 between the initial presentation of an artwork in one site and its display 
 in a second. In this project presented in two installments\, the first at t
 he Leonard and Bina Ellen Art Gallery of Concordia University and the secon
 d at the artist-run center Dazibao in February 2014\, curator Vincent Bonin
  will address an instance of this phenomena of deferred reception: namely h
 ow a body of theoretical texts gathered under the label “French Theory” was
  assimilated by anglophone art milieus from the late 1970s to the present.<
 /p><p>The exhibition will have two sections. The first part will be conceiv
 ed as a historical survey\, mapping the trajectory of these texts as they g
 ained new value for artists within the framework of postmodernism (1977-199
 4). However\, rather than aiming to establish a comprehensive chronology\, 
 Bonin will examine this period through a carefully chosen sample of key exh
 ibitions and institutions. In this way\, he will bypass the a priori themat
 ic principles and arbitrary spatial cohabitation that often underline group
  exhibitions by structuring D’un discours around artists gathered in commun
 ities of elective affinities. While some works will be chosen because they 
 directly address the aforementioned imported theories\, many will encompass
  other topics\, such as sexual difference\, the renewal of institutional cr
 itique\, and postcolonialism\, that emerged in the art field as texts by Je
 an Baudrillard\, Michel Foucault\, Luce Irigaray\, Jean-François Lyotard\, 
 etc. became available in English. The second part of the exhibition will di
 splay contemporary projects stemming from the questions raised by this atte
 mpt at a historiography of “French Theory\,” wherein the added value of the
 se discourses is no longer taken for granted\, but rather becomes an object
  of critical scrutiny.</p><p>Artists: Berwick Film Collective\, Group Mater

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Rewind. Pause. Play: Looking Back at Vide
 oscape\, Video Art\, and The Video Show</h4><p>AHVA Postdoctoral Research F
 ellow <strong>Ariane Noel de Tilly</strong> will be presenting her research
  on video art.</p><p>Video art began with a series of acts of destructions 
 and displacements\, as for instance with a gesture made by Korean-born arti
 st Nam June Paik in <em>Exposition of Music – Electronic Television</em> he
 ld in the Wuppertal Galerie Parnass in March 1963.</p><p>In one of the room
 s of the exhibition\, Paik had not only displaced television sets from the 
 living room to the exhibition space\, but he had also distorted their broad
 cast signals. In 1965\, Paik stated: “Television has been attacking us all 
 our lives\, now we can attack it back.” It is therefore in a climate of dis
 tortions\, attacks\, and contestation that video art was born.</p><p>Despit
 e this violent genesis\, the study of the early survey exhibitions of video
  art held in Canada\, the United States\, and in the United Kingdom in the 
 mid-1970s shows that early on\, there was a change of paradigm and even if 
 certain artists continued to exploit (and distort) the specifically electro
 nic features of video\, many others used the medium in a more conceptual or
  experiential manner. The artworks included in the exhibitions <em>Videosca
 pe: An Exhibition of Video Art </em>(Art Gallery of Ontario\, Toronto\, 197
 4-1975)\, <em>Video Art</em> (Institute of Contemporary Art\, Philadelphia\
 , 1975)\, and <em>The Video Show</em> (Serpentine Gallery\, London\, 1975) 
 are good cases in point.</p><p>Even if many of the works moved away and bey
 ond an attitude of contestation in regards to broadcast television\, it is 
 perhaps more in the organization of these exhibitions that the relationship
  to broadcast television remained the most tangible. Indeed\, since the tim
 e-based feature of the works prevented them to be shown all at once\, the e
 xhibitions were organized according to specific programmes. In this talk\, 
 I intend to shed light on the different curatorial strategies employed to d
 isseminate this new medium. I will also speak of how these exhibitions cont
 ributed to a strengthening of the video community and of the rallying poten
 tial of group exhibitions.</p><p>This event is free and open to the public.

  that has permeated art practice since the beginning of human expression. I
 t can be an impulse that keeps us safe from danger\, by compelling us back 
 to a place of familiarity\, as well as a driving force that leads us to inn
 ovation and change. From two-dimensional to three-dimensional work\, from d
 ocumentation to live performance\, from gesture and process-based work\, ki
 netic sculpture to relational aesthetics\; art and motion always seem to re
 main dynamically intertwined. This exhibition aims to explore all the ways 
 these can be made through notions of motion\, process\, speed\, change\, ge

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Meet the Author! Serge Guilbaut</h4><p>Yo
 u are warmly invited to attend a book launch for AHVA Professor Emeritus <s
 trong>Serge Guilbaut's </strong>latest publication:</p><p><em><strong>Chatt
 ing with Henri Matisse: The Lost 1941 Interview</strong></em></p><p>In 1941
  the Swiss art critic Pierre Courthion interviewed Henri Matisse while the 
 artist was in bed recovering from a serious operation. It was an extensive 
 interview\, seen at the time as a vital assessment of Matisse’s career and 
 set to be published by Albert Skira’s then newly established Swiss press. A
 fter months of complicated discussions between Courthion and Matisse\, and 
 just weeks before the book was to come out—the artist even had approved the
  cover design—Matisse suddenly refused its publication. A typescript of the
  interview now resides in Courthion’s papers at the Getty Research Institut
 e.</p><p>This rich conversation\, conducted during the Nazi occupation of F
 rance\, is published for the first time in this volume\, where it appears b
 oth in English translation and in the original French version. Matisse unra
 vels memories of his youth and his life as a bohemian student in Gustave Mo
 reau’s atelier. He recounts his experience with collectors\, including Albe
 rt C. Barnes. He discusses fame\, writers\, musicians\, politicians\, and\,
  most fascinatingly\, his travels. Chatting with Henri Matisse\, introduced
  by Serge Guilbaut\, contains a preface by Claude Duthuit\, Matisse’s grand
 son\, and essays by Yve-Alain Bois and Laurence Bertrand Dorléac. The book 
 includes unpublished correspondence and other original documents related to
  Courthion’s interview and abounds with details about avant-garde life\, ta
 ctics\, and artistic creativity in the first half of the twentieth century.
 </p><p><strong>Serge Guilbaut\,</strong> a professor of art history at the 
 University of British Columbia\, Vancouver\, writes extensively on modern a
 nd contemporary art. His books include How New York Stole the Idea of Moder
 n Art: Abstract Expressionism\, Freedom\, and the Cold War (University of C
 hicago Press\, 1983)\,Voir\, ne pas voir\, faut voir (Harmonia Mundi\, 1993
 )\, and Los espejismos de la imagen en los lindes del siglo XXI (Akal Edici

 Resources Centre for access to the event recording: <a href="mailto:ahva.vr
 c@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca</a></p><p><strong>R.H. Quaytman</strong> is an in
 ternationally exhibited artist based in New York. Recent exhibitions of her
  work include: <em>Passing Through the Opposite of What It Approaches\, Cha
 pter 25</em>\, at The Renaissance Society in Chicago\; “<em>Dalet\, Chapter
  24</em>\,” Museum Abteiberg\, Mönchengladbach\, Germany\; <em>Spine\, Chap
 ter 20</em>\, at the Kunsthalle Basel\, Switzerland\; and participated in t
 he Venice Bienniale in 2011 and the Whitney Biennial in 2010. Quaytman is a
  member of the painting faculty at the Milton Avery Graduate School of the 
 Arts at Bard College in New York.</p><p>Quaytman's work puts the place of p
 ainting under pressure in a manner reminiscent of T.J. Clark's description 
 of the historical pressures exerted upon the aesthetic forms of modernism b
 y the political and technological forms of modernity. Quaytman brings a ran
 ge of image producing technologies to bare upon painting but in place of Cl
 ark's steam engine\, the ideal and threatening synecdoche of industrializat
 ion\, Quaytman forces painting into relation with the informatic and aesthe
 tic structures of the book.</p><p>Rigorously conceived in terms of chapters
 \, Quaytman's exhibitions since 2001 engage in the complex arrangement of m
 ultiple continuities and discontinuities according to the possibilities inh
 erent in the book form as much as they operate in emphatically optical term
 s. With the publication of Spine in 2011\, a 400 page review of the first 2
 0 chapters of Quaytman's work within this structure\, Quaytman offered a de
 tailed analysis of this relation.</p><p>This should not be taken to mean th
 at the book becomes an identificatory point of projection for painting\, so
  much as the structures of the book serve to bring painting into a formal r
 ather than a signifying relationship to language\, to works of history and 
 poetry. According to David Joselit\, Quaytman\, along with a number of othe
 r contemporary artists\, is engaged in what he has named “transitive painti
 ng” - a practice in which qualities and attributes pass from one activity o
 r object into another. Thus the effort in Quaytman's work\, is oriented to 
 a reconsideration of the nature of relation itself (not just that which is 
 related) between artistic mediums\, histories and milieus.</p><p>In additio
 n to working with the MFA students in studio visits and their seminar\, we 
 will have the opportunity to hear Quaytman discuss both the historical and 
 contemporary dimension of her practice at a public talk at 5:30pm on Februa
 ry 26.</p><h4>Weblinks</h4><p>Renaissance Society Chicago<br /><a href="htt

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>JCI Lecture Series in collaboration with 
 CENES Ziegler Series Lecture. 5:30 PM</h4><p><strong>Graham Harman</strong>
  is the Distinguished University Professor at the American University in Ca
 iro\, and the author of numerous books\, most recently including <em>Weird 
 Realism: Lovecraft and Philosophy</em>(2012) and <em>Bells and Whistles: Mo
 re Speculative Realism</em> (2013).</p><p>He is closely associated with Spe
 culative Realism and Object-Oriented Philosophy\, both of which represent a
 n inquiry into the conditions of philosophy in the waning of the linguistic
  turn\, and proceed on the basis of a rejection of the post-Kantian reducti
 on of philosophy to a correlation between thought and being.</p><p>In an es
 say for last year’s Documenta (13) catalog entitled “The Third Table\,” Pro
 f. Harman argued that the arts have a special role in dealing with objects 
 in separation from their qualities\, something the natural sciences cannot 
 afford to do since their method (the opposite one) is to reduce objects to 
 their specific qualities. In this lecture\, he will push the argument a ste
 p further by clarifying further the relation of art to object-oriented phil
 osophy. While some commentators assume that Speculative Realist philosophy 
 wants to remove humans from art completely (given our distaste for the cent
 ral role of humans in philosophy since Kant)\, the true situation is a bit 
 subtler than this. While removing humans as the ubiquitous observer from ar
 t and all other domains\, the object-oriented variant of Speculative Realis
 m require humans to be a component of the artwork. This lecture considers t
 he consequences of this unexpected turn in the argument.</p><p><em>Harman's
  lecture is co-sponsored with The Department of Central\, Eastern and North
 ern European Studies Ziegler Series Lecture.<br /></em><a href="http://cene

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>The concept is addressed no longer by wha
 t it is\, but by where it is situated or where it subsists - from 'what is 
 a concept' to 'where is a concept'</h4><p>The Department of Art History Vis
 ual Art and Theory is pleased to announce the visit of <strong>Reza Negares
 tani</strong> to Vancouver this March. In the first of a series of events\,
  Negarestani will be delivering a public lecture\, Where the Concept Takes 
 You\, on Wednesday March 5 at 5:30pm\, join our MFA seminar the following d
 ay\, as well as conduct a further public lecture at Simon Fraser University
 \, and participate as a keynote speaker at <em>Incredible Machines: Digital
 ity and the Modern System of Knowledge at the Threshold of the 21st Century
 </em>\, to be held at Access Gallery on Friday March 7 and Saturday March 8
 .</p><p>Reza Negarestani is a philosopher. He has contributed extensively t
 o journals and anthologies and lectured at numerous international universit
 ies and institutes. His current philosophical project is focused on rationa
 list universalism beginning with the evolution of the modern system of know
 ledge and advancing toward contemporary philosophies of rationalism\, their
  procedures as well as their demands for special forms of human conduct.</p
 ><p>Negarestani’s book\,<em> Cyclonopedia</em>\, is frequently claimed as a
  key text in the fields of theory-fiction or new weird-fiction. It was judg
 ed one of the best books of 2009 by<em> Artforum</em>\, a mark of the impac
 t his work has begun to make upon the artworld in recent years\, alongside 
 numerous invitations to speak at galleries and museums\, including the Migu
 el Abreu Gallery\, The Guggenheim Museum\, and the recent Escape Velocities
  symposium at e-flux in New York. His essay\, “The Labor of the Inhuman\, P
 art I: Human” is the lead article in the current issue of e-flux journal.</
 p><p><strong>Where the Concept Takes You</strong></p><p><em>From a formalis
 t perspective\, the concept is introduced as a space over which man has no 
 hold. It is an epistemic cue in an otherwise qualitatively homogenous infor
 mation space - a desert - for which no map and no compass is given. The ges
 ture that constitutes the concept is a response to the question of localiza
 tion (where to begin and how to proceed) in an environment where there is n
 either an a-priori determination of the initial place nor a given survey of
  the general landscape. In this situation\, building extensive maps capable
  of holding the semantic load across different patches of the landscape lea
 ds to various epistemic complications. In order to avoid such complications
 \, the concept is reformulated as a mobile frame\, a transitory epistemic c
 ue which procedurally informs its construction\, extension and revision. Bu
 t this reformulation amounts to a drastic shift in the ontology of the conc
 ept. The concept is addressed no longer by what it is\, but by where it is 
 situated (Leibniz) or where it subsists (Lawvere) - from 'what is a concept
 ' to 'where is a concept'. This presentation attempts to unpack the consequ
 ences of understanding the concept as a specific navigational abstraction o
 f the local site or the place in terms of how such an abstraction brings in
 to focus hidden cracks and defects in the classical portrait of concepts. <

 Fan-Ling’s sculptural practice investigates the complex nature of human rel

  – particularly those that structure childhood experience. Her work navigat
 es issues of memory\, longing and attachment through a combination of popul
 ar fiction\, children’s literature and psychoanalytic theory. Both grotesqu

 The Brood are suggestive of childhood dolls\, taxidermy\, as well as D.W. W
 innicott’s seminal writings on the transitional object.</p><p><strong>Fan-L

 Screenprinting’s inception in the art realm was due to a number of artists 
 in the 60s\, specifically the Pop movement. The implementation of this meth
 od as a visual language owes to its adaptation as a commercial method a dec
 ade before.</p><p>The students from <strong>VISA 351</strong> presented in 
 this show were asked to tackle the medium more as an interdisciplinary arti
 st\, considering its technique\, history\, and how it can be used as an exp
 ansive tool. They started off initially printing on paper and then challeng
 ed to go beyond the frame.</p><p>Gallery Hours: 11am - 5pm Monday - Friday<

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs April 16 to May 2\, 2014<
 /h4><p>Satellite Gallery invites four first year Master of Fine Arts (MFA) 
 students from the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at the 
 University of British Columbia to create an experimental\, site responsive 
 collaboration using the gallery's exhibition spaces.</p><p>Artists <strong>
 Eric Angus\, Jamey Braden\, Anyse Ducharme </strong>and <strong>Jessica Gny
 p</strong> embark on a unique investigation that invites visual risk taking
  and will result in the unexpected. The Gallery will maintain its regular g
 allery hours during this process to invite the public to witness and partic
 ipate in the unfolding of this work. The artists will be working and collab
 orating in the Gallery from April 16 and culminating in a closing event on 
 May 2\, from 7pm to 10pm.</p><p>When asked to occupy the Satellite Gallery 
 for a period of three weeks with only the mandate to produce work collabora
 tively\, the artists said\, "We found ourselves momentarily frozen\, faced 
 with the great unknown of what\, how\, and who might come out of such an ex
 perimental framework: occupying a gallery in an attempt to create generativ
 e work together." They continue\, "The attempt to collectively envision wha
 t might come out of us feels akin to predicting what elephants and dolphins
  might naturally create together\, knowing only that they are both mammals\
 , have grey skin\, and do not speak the same language!"</p><p>Using Satelli
 te Gallery's distinctive site above Club FiveSixty as a point of departure\
 , the Club becomes a site to respond to within the Gallery\, an embodied pl
 ace to research\, a historical institution about which to learn\, a fantasy
  place on which to project thoughts\, feelings and creative imaginings. The
  artists share a particular interest in looking at the Gallery's site using
  a multitude of digital and sculptural processes\, documenting the afterhou
 rs soundscape that engulfs the Gallery\, and creating a parallel night club
  through physical\, material play.</p><p><em>This project is made possible 
 with support from the Michael O'Brian Family Foundation and the Department 
 of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at UBC in collaboration with Satelli
 te Gallery. A special thank you to Marina Roy for her dedication and suppor
 t of this project.</em></p>

 \, a group exhibition featuring works by Jeremy Everett\, Simone Jones\, Ri
 chard T. Walker and Will Wilson.</p><p>This exhibition joins four recent ar
 tistic responses to the desert of the American West\, arguably one of the m
 ost conflicted and contradictory North American geographies. The desert is 
 at once exploited and protected\, poisoned and adored. With one eye to prec
 eding generations of artists in the desert (from canonical sculptors to the
  anthropological projects of photographers)\, and another to contemporary r
 ealities of land use\, each artist employs a lens-based medium to consider 
 the site. Theirs is not the fantastical desert of mystics or the wilderness
  of pilgrimage\, rather it is a land very much impacted by its human and te
 chnological histories.</p><p>In some cases these realities are confronted b
 y introducing everyday technologies to sublime\, protected sites. In others
 \, the artist’s body is introduced to the image\, complicating the expected
  relationship between the ostensibly untouched wilderness and the human. Th
 e nexus between the American desert and the artist’s lens opens onto crucia
 l questions that demand the viewer rethink their place in traditionally acc
 epted categories of nature and landscape.</p><p>Dust on the Lens is guest c

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs May 16 - June 28\, 2014.<
 /h4><p>From Vancouver's West End to Zagreb\, Croatia\, Satellite Gallery's 
 upcoming exhibition<em>Queering Citizenship</em>\, which opens on May 15 at
  6pm\, reflects a landscape that is socially and politically diverse.</p><p
 >By considering the climate of queer citizens in Eastern Europe and Africa\
 , the exhibition poses the question\, “How might art and culture help us to
  look again at the way in which we understand the conditions of queer citiz
 ens in global politics?” The artists in the exhibition engage with the term
  queer not only as an identity that embraces different sexualities\, gender
 s\, international and transnational backgrounds\, but as a verb: as in quee
 ring or rethinking the familiar ways citizenship and belonging are defined.
 </p><p>Responding to citizenship by representing individual narratives as w
 ell as abstracted forms\, the works communicate an archive of feelings and 
 memories. The artists present different perspectives in their expression of
  history\, place and the location of a culture of pride. The various method
 s of display\, signage\, postering and music-video anthem queer our experie
 nce of the gallery space and expand the cultural imagination in a nervous p
 resent. The artists each show a deep connection to an understanding of plac
 e and citizenship.</p><p>The exhibition includes works by Canadian-based an
 d international artists Shawna Dempsey and Lorri Millan\, Francisco Fernand
 o-Granados\, Igor Grubi?\, Kevin Madill\, Naufus Ramírez-Figuroa\, Benny Ne
 merofsky Ramsay and Pascal Lièvre\, Emily Roysdon and Alize Zorlutuna.</p><

 he many historical and contemporary intersections of art and therapy\, seek
 ing\, in the process\, to question those very power imbalances. Contrary to
  at least one recent take on this theme\, however\, each of the works in th
 is exhibition demonstrate that not all art is therapeutic\, nor that its ai
 m should be to make everyone happy.[2] Where Does it Hurt? brings together 
 four artists whose work thematizes therapy\, or the idea of the therapeutic
  understood broadly as a treatment meant to relieve or heal. These works re
 think the relationship between art and therapy\, looking askance at receive
 d therapeutic methodologies\, and\, especially\, established analogies betw
 een therapy and the way we encounter and interpret works of art. The formal
  differences between these works are matched by a corresponding range of sc
 ales upon which they imagine the therapeutic encounter: from the epistemolo
 gical to the individual to the social and political. My hope is that the im
 plicit ellipses between these works will allude to the wide range of approa
 ches artists are taking towards this theme but that necessity prevents incl
 uding here.[3]</p><p>While Groys’ statement points to the long and often pr
 oblematic relationship between therapy and the interpretation and distribut
 ion of artworks\, not all of the connections between these two fields are m
 etaphorical. Carlo Ginzburg\, for example\, details the influence of connoi
 sseurial art history upon Freud’s psychoanalytic method in its focus on mar
 ginal details.[4]  As Ginzburg points out\, Freud himself acknowledged his 
 debt to Giovanni Morelli\, who held that brushstrokes contained an essentia
 l trace of the artist’s hand\; a belief that presaged Freud’s own claims ab
 out the significance of previously overlooked psychological symptoms.</p><p
 >It is to this shared history that DAVID MACWILLIAM’s large-scale weaving\,
  Inkblot 031 (2013)\, calls attention. Using the same method that Herman Ro
 rschach drew upon to create his famous Psychodiagnostik tests in the 1920s\
 , MacWilliam has gone a step further by enlarging his inkblots and translat
 ing them into vividly coloured tapestries. The back of the tapestry\, which
  is exposed in its current hanging\, is not the exact inverse of the blot o
 n the front\, but is rather a colourful melange of excluded threads that is
  tempting to think of as a manifestation of the work’s own unconscious. The
  jacquard looms upon which this work was made are themselves significant fo
 r being among the first forms of automated weaving. Through these layers of
  mediation\, MacWilliam points to the assumption held by early twentieth-ce
 ntury psychologists\, and their surrealist contemporaries alike\, that auto
 matism could offer a transparent insight into the unconscious. In doing so\
 , this work underlines how the accidental mark\, and other traces of automa
 tism\, became a privileged stylistic effect that even now is strongly assoc
 iated with the perceived realism or objectivity of a representation.</p><p>
 RACHELLE SAWATSKY’s paintings also work in and around received analogies be
 tween pictorial and psychological depth. In particular\, her series The App
 le and The Doctor (2012) invites observers to read psychological meaning in
 to egg tempera doodles on found stationery from a psychotherapist’s office.
  Such readings are easier when the figures and objects are more clearly del
 ineated\, but many of the paintings also resolutely evade interpretation. A
 t the same time\, those that do depict rarely slide into familiar diagnosti
 c narratives. One begins to question the scenario these works implicitly st
 age. Are they the product of an imagined analysand’s earnest attempts to ex
 press her inner desires and motivations\, or a strategic defacement? The ab
 stract\, hazy colours of Sawatsky’s large stretched canvases—both untitled 
 (2014)—also resist narrativization\, exploring instead the affective capaci
 ties of colour\, shape and scale. Sawatsky describes some of her paintings 
 in this style as “relaxing\,” questioning\, in the process\, models of ther
 apy that privilege the search for hidden meanings over affective responses.
 </p><p>Whereas the preceding works think of therapy on an individual level\
 , or in terms of a two-person relationship—the patient and the doctor—the f
 ollowing projects approach therapy on a broader scale. KRISTA BELLE STEWART
 ’s two-part video installation embodies and reflects upon another potential
 ly therapeutic encounter that is both intensely personal and political. It 
 tells two parallel stories about the life of the artist’s mother\, Seraphin
 e Stewart—the first Aboriginal public health nurse in British Columbia—with
  a focus on the elder Stewart’s experience as a former student at the Kamlo
 ops Indian Residential School. The installation at Artspeak is one of three
  works by Stewart drawing upon the same source material that are currently 
 on display in Vancouver. The other two are public installations at the City
  Centre Canada Line station and on dual video screens above Robson and Gran
 ville streets\, both of which were commissioned by the City of Vancouver Pu
 blic Art Program as part of Vancouver’s official Year of Reconciliation\, w
 hich coincided with the National Event of the Truth and Reconciliation Comm
 ission of Canada held here in September 2013. At Artspeak\, one wall featur
 es an unaltered projection of the CBC docu-drama\, Seraphine: Her Own Story
  (1967)\, which portrays the life of the elder Stewart leading up to and sh
 ortly after her nursing studies. In this video\, the artist’s mother plays 
 her younger self in a series of scripted scenes that are shot in grainy bla
 ck and white and impressionistically montaged over a jazz soundtrack. Proje
 cted on the opposite wall are a series of video excerpts from the elder Ste
 wart’s personal testimony for the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.[5] T
 he dissonance between these two videos—one in which Stewart’s mother tells 
 her own story and another where she reenacts a version of her life accordin
 g to someone else’s script—is emphasized by the way they confront one anoth
 er across the screening room. It is significant that Stewart refuses to rec
 oncile or apply new narratives onto her source material. Reckoning with the
  effectiveness of the TRC itself as an instrument for personal catharsis\, 
 political therapy and future societal change will require many years and mu
 ch debate. In the meantime\, Stewart’s work highlights the potential power 
 of simply revealing the personal accounts of former residential school stud
 ents.</p><p>The curators of The Talking Cure—a recent group exhibition at O
 akville Galleries that featured works from Andrea Fraser and Melanie Gillig
 an\, among others—describe a kind of political therapy wherein artists appr
 opriate palliative methodologies from psychoanalysis or hypnotherapy to ext
 ernalize structural societal ills. CATHY BUSBY’s Self-Help Library (1994) t
 akes a slightly different approach\, focusing instead on gathering material
  evidence of those same societal ills. The library itself consists of an ar
 chive of close to 300 self-help books\, ranging from pulpy bestsellers—aime
 d at correcting “inefficient behaviours” and the like—to empowering feminis
 t manuals for adult survivors of child abuse. Self-Help Library embodies a 
 socio-historical record of (purported) therapeutic cures\, and\, by extensi
 on\, also of the tremendous constellation of anxieties and ailments that af
 flicted the largely English-speaking North American society within which th
 ese books originally circulated. In spite of not having incorporated new ti
 tles since its last iteration in the 1990s\, Self-Help Library is now once 
 again an active therapeutic resource for those who page through its volumes
  seeking a do-it-yourself means to healing.</p><p>Busby’s work was original
 ly assembled for an exhibition at the New Museum in New York in 1994\, only
  to be remounted two years later at the Banff Centre’s satellite gallery in
  Calgary. There\, it was shown along with several related works\, including
  a version of the poster\, This Book Can Change Your Life\, currently on di
 splay in the front window of Artspeak. The present exhibition takes its nam
 e from the latter exhibit in Calgary\, which was also called Where Does it 
 Hurt? This gesture underlines the structures of repetition that the works i
 n this show use to think through art and therapy: from the front and back o
 f the tapestry\, to the play between flatness and depth in the paintings\, 
 to the juxtaposed video projections\, and\, finally\, the library’s archive
  of ailments and cures. I hope the choice of title will be understood both 
 as a tribute to Busby’s long-term engagement with art and therapy as well a
 s a way to acknowledge the historical precedents of the current renewed int
 erest in this topic.</p><p><em>Photo: Cathy Busby\, Self-Help Library\, 199

 >Brendan Fernandes\, Eve Fowler\, Paul de Guzman\, Jeffrey Hallbauer\, Luis
  Jacob\, Attila Richard Lukacs\, Will Munro and Patryk Stasieczek</p><p>The
  use of text has been a significant feature of artists’ practices over the 
 past century. Within the gay community\, language has functioned as a syste
 m of binding people to overcome the days when homosexuality was deemed\, du
 ring Oscar Wilde’s lifetime\, the love that dare not speak its name. This e
 xhibition intends to explore the ways in which contemporary gay artists hav
 e used language in their art to explore their identity.</p><p>Playful manip
 ulation of language is demonstrated in Luis Jacob’s work\, a print derived 
 from the action of him kissing a sheet of paper\, a la Joyce Weilland\, whi
 le singing the disco funk anthem\, Sylvester’s “You Make Me Feel (Mighty Re
 al)”. Keith Cole marries text and visual in collages derived from mass medi
 a and advertising as he draws upon popular culture.</p><p>Text can be immed
 iate\, and billboards and signage exemplify the commercial world\, as demon
 strated by the poster work of the late Toronto-based artist\, Will Munro. M
 unro was one of Toronto’s most active promoters of queer culture over the p
 ast decade\, and brought to Toronto such legendary music performers as The 
 Hidden Cameras\, Nina Hagen\, Peaches\, among others.  His work with monthl
 y events Vazaleen Peroxide\, NoT.O. and Moustache yielded an astonishing am
 ount of artist multiples\; especially noteworthy is his work with silkscree
 n posters\, produced in the collectively run Punchclock Studio.</p><p>In pa
 rallel\, Los Angeles-based Eve Fowler took poetic licence with the early wo
 rk of famed lesbian Gertrude Stein\, Tender Buttons\, by working with now d
 efunct commercial LA printer\, Colby Press\, to create signage which visual
 ly reference ubiquitous commercial signs posted on buildings and electrical
  poles throughout the city\, while communicating information that is arguab
 ly non-immediate.</p><p>In a deeply personal work called dear folks\, Todd 
 Evanger mines meaning from a collection of handwritten letters\, signed by 
 the artist’s father\, sent from the Boundary Lake oil field to Marsden\, Sa
 skatchewan\, during the 1970s. In a different way\, the narrative possibili
 ties of text appeals to Jeffrey Hallbauer in a skillful watercolour that in
 vestigates the image-conscious element of gay culture that binds and divide
 s it. Patryk Stasieczek’s photographic work\, I Am You\, all crumpled destr
 uction and chromatic exposure as a form of conceptual engagement with the m
 aterial process\, poses a thoughtful philosophical response.</p><p>Artists 
 have also looked at words as graphic signs in their own right. Terence Koh\
 , as his early alias\, asianpunkboy\, created a text piece carved on painte
 d metal called No Sissy Gays that employs a sensitive phrase as a method of
  an oppressed person reclaiming language.</p><p>Paul de Guzman’s new slides
 how titled i need you investigates the phenomenon of mass communication of 
 private desire\, often closeted and hidden\, on game-changing technology\, 
 Craigslist.  He explores visual alliteration by entwining Craigslist M2M pe
 rsonal ads with deftly-chosen\, phallicly-inspired architecture.  The slide
 show will be available on the internet during the exhibition dates at <a hr
 ef="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdXoRsMoZJ0">https://www.youtube.com/wa
 tch?v=tdXoRsMoZJ0</a> and is best viewed using full screen settings at high
  definition with audio.  Due to the sexually explicit text used in this sli
 deshow\, some parts may prove objectionable to some viewers.  Viewer discre
 tion is advised.</p><p>Attila Richard Lukacs’ explicit references to homoer
 otic sexuality in his paintings have often shocked galleries and the public
 . In a series of pure-text paintings\, the inscribed text are both literal 
 and resonant to those who have experienced the thrilling facets of dom / su
 b relationships.</p><p>Artists have\, of course\, also looked to language f
 or its poetic impact and literary resonances. Like Eve Fowler\, Brendan Fer
 nandes’ text on wall contribution draws upon the daddy mentor / young mente
 e relationships illustrated in Plato’s Symposium and references his newest 
 sculptural and recent performative dance work that looks at the intimate re
 lation between embodiment and identity.</p><p>In all these cases\, the open
 ness\, ambiguity and power of language has offered these artists the means 
 to suggest\, instruct\, provoke\, urge and compel the viewer to explore the
  multivalent and complex realms of gay existence in contemporary life beyon
 d gallery walls. During this season of Pride spectacles\, it’s thought prov
 oking\, but nothing strange.</p>

 urself.  To think of others\, besides yourself. To feel outside yourself. W
 e are in interaction with an affective field\, the body a surface of intens
 ities\, the brain translating these\, at times\, as emotions or feelings. A
 rtworks have the capacity to move us\, and artworks contain much that resis
 ts interpretation. The ‘emotional turn’ in art might stem from the realizat
 ion that the experience of the body means something\, especially in its con
 nection to the surrounding world – how relations between things\, object\, 
 beings\, and events\, assemblages of materials and entities external to our
 selves\, have potential for sparking new affective relations. Feeling the b
 ody destabilized and decentered can bring one closer to demystifying the ’p
 rimacy of the subject\,’ a position upon which oppressive\, alienating stru
 ctures continue to capitalize. We have come to realize that to be affected 
 and to have the capacity to affect figures largely around questions of agen
 cy\, and trying to come to terms with what lies beyond our knowledge can be
  of the utmost urgency. Beside yourself reflects on the potential of artwor
 ks as they exist in affective relation to us.</p><h5><strong>Artists:</stro

 ary 24\, 2015</h4><h4>Closing reception: January 21st</h4><p>The <strong><e
 m>470 Exhibition/Exhibition</em></strong> is four (4) collaborative works b
 ased on the organization and curation of a fictional exhibition. The 'exhib
 itions' will be created by teams of students in the 470 Special Topics clas
 s who will conceive of a 'possible exhibition' that they would like to see 
 realized. The exhibition concepts can range from solo show\, historical\, c
 ontemporary\, group\, Biennale or whatever the curators decide. Although mu
 ch of the research will be done outside of the gallery\, the gallery will f
 unction as a lab/hub and workspace to compile research\, material and then 
 to design and realize the final visual resolution. The teams will have acce
 ss to the gallery during open hours and the 470 Class will be held at its r
 egular time in the gallery. The public will also have access to the space d
 uring public hours and can view the process of the work. The second and per
 haps more difficult part of the exhibition will be to visually represent\, 
 as art\, the hypothetical exhibition. The students will be tasked to make a
  completed visual representation of both research and imagined exhibition b
 y the 14th of January. The finished work will be up during the remainder of
  the exhibition period with a closing celebration on the 21st  of January\,
  2015.</p><p><strong>Closing Reception: Wednesday\, January 21\, 2015   5 t

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Works produced by the VISA 250 and 350 cl
 asses</h4><p>The works produced by the VISA 250-001 and 350-001 classes are
  linked in their exploration and visual enactment of themes such as hybridi
 ty\, abstraction\, boundaries\, subversion\, and food. However\, the divers
 ity of techniques and approaches to these topics resists any totalizing cla
 ssification. As such\, this exhibition's focus on boundaries and subversive
  acts ts not only denotes the original project framework of the classes for
  which the works were made: it also highlights the boundlessness of print m
 edia\, the play between old and new technologies inherent within it\, and t
 he creativity and technical abilities of the students producing work in pri
 nt. Print techniques employed in the works include both relief and intaglio
  methods on a variety of plate types in variable sizes\, with layered\, ste
 ncilled\, etched\, aquatinted\, and digital components. The third-year book
  works are in handbound and unbound formats\, and include digital as well a

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>“The Invention of Non-Art” a public talk 
 by Thierry de Duve</h4><p>Department of Art History\, Visual Art & Theory p
 resents:<br />“The Invention of Non-Art” a public talk by Thierry de Duve</
 p><p>Often seen\, together with other Dadaists\, as the inventor of non-art
  and anti-art\, Marcel Duchamp was in fact the messenger of a sea change in
  the art institution: he brought us the news that\, between 1880\, the date
  of the last Paris Salon under the aegis of the Ministère des Beaux-Arts\, 
 and 1917\, the date of the first exhibition of the New York Society of Inde
 pendent Artists\, the art world has switched from the Fine Arts system to t
 he “Art-in-General” system\, in which we still live.</p><p>In the “Art-in-G
 eneral” system\, art can be made from anything whatever. As a result we are
  often incapable of identifying a given object as a work of art before appr
 aising it as good or bad art\, and the phrase “this is art” then becomes an
  aesthetic judgment. In the Fine Arts system\, by contrast\, aesthetic judg
 ments are phrased as “this painting is good\,” “this piece of music is subl
 ime\,” and the like. How did we move from “this painting is good” to “this 
 thing is art\,” historically\, and theoretically? I shall argue that the mo
 ve implies an earlier transit through the negative aesthetic judgment\, “th
 is is not art\,” and that the concept of non-art resulting therefrom is not
  an invention of the Dadaists\; rather\, it is an involuntary by-product of
  the binary structure of the aesthetic verdicts cast at the 19th century Fr
 ench Salon.</p><p>12:00 pm<br />Friday\, February 6\, 2015</p><p><strong>Sp

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>You are warmly invited to attend the next 
 DVA Lecture.</p><p>By blurring truth and fiction\, symbolism and reality\, 
 and rationality and emotion in her work\, Wardill unlocks the hierarchical 
 structures of knowledge and rearranges them.</p><p>While her practice conta
 ins an element of analysis\, she experiments with different visual or verba
 l structures\, deliberately resisting meaning that settles in form. This re
 sistance comes from an interest in styles of communication and the persiste
 nce of images to outlive their initial purpose.</p><p>Her films consciously
  emphasize the irreducible qualities of images as well as their emancipator
 y potential taking an interest in the way in which the symbolic is used wit
 hin the communication of nebulous ideas or political rhetoric. Her approach
  emphasizes the strangeness of images and undermines narrative cohesion. Th
 e film develop its own life and dynamic\, to be absorbed by the senses rath
 er than through logic.</p><p>Wardill's work makes a central contribution to
  contemporary art film and was exhibited\, among others\, at the Serpentine
  Gallery London (2012)\, the Showroom Gallery London (2010)\, the Gallery o
 f Modern Art Glasgow (2011)\, the Baadischer Kunstverein Karlsruhe (2011)\,
  the MIT List Visual Arts Center in Cambridge/MA (2010) and the ICA\, Londo
 n (2008). In 2004 the artist showed the performance event The Feast Against
  Nature in Grizedale in the Lake District and at the New York PS1 Contempor
 ary Art Center.</p><p>In 2011 she took part in the Venice Biennale. Her wor
 k was awarded the Jarman Award in 2010 and the Leverhulme Award in 2011. Re
 cently her films were shown in the context of solo shows\, namely The Third
  Person in the ARTES) and When you fall into a trance in La Loge\, Brussels
  (2012).</p><p>Emily Wardill\, born in 1977\, lives and works in Lisbon\, P
 ortugal. She will talk about her own work and show films.</p><p>The Disting

  Geen\, Víctor Ballesteros & Jessica Gnyp\, Kevin Murphy\, prOphecy sun\, M
 ichelle Weinstein.</p><p>The question of time and the environment have long
  been intertwined within the discourse of art history. From the early maste
 ry of nature at the Temple of Petra in Jordan to revivals of Neoplatonic th
 ought within garden settings in Renaissance Italy to the land art movement 
 of the mid-twentieth century in America\, weather\, environment\, and the t
 emporal coexist within a framework which mirrors the dual meaning of the Fr
 ench word “temps.” Temps can mean both weather and time. Today\, we face th
 e consequences of accelerating climate shifts and an urgency to respond to 
 ecological matters. The increased awareness of sustainability within the cu
 ltural sphere has led to multiple protests and counter-discourses against t
 he current ideologies perpetuated by multinational corporations. The dire n
 eed for reform is matched with rapidly disappearing resources: within 100 y
 ears\, the face of earth will have dramatically changed. The People’s Clima
 te March in September of this year revealed the necessity for action as wel
 l as the diverse and global connections created around this topic.</p><p>Co
 nsidering the importance of time and the environment for contemporary and h
 istorical art discourse and practice\, the 2015 UBC Art History\, Visual Ar
 t and Theory (AHVA) 38th Annual Graduate Symposium seeks to examine the rel

 us awards including the prestigious VIVA Award and the Eiteljorg Fellowship
 . Her work is in major collections including the National Gallery of Canada
 \, Ottawa\; Canada Council Art Bank\; the Vancouver Art Gallery\; and the W
 innipeg Art Gallery.</p><p>Her work was selected for the 17th Biennale of S

 temporain du Havre\, France (2006)\; Microwave\, Hong Kong (2005)\; Art Sta

 She has created commissioned works for the University of Lethbridge Gallery
 \, Alternator Gallery\, Winnipeg Art Gallery\, Urban Shaman\, Moose Jaw Mus
 eum\, and Art Gallery and Tribe. She has presented talks at the Getty Insti
 tute (LA) and the Art College Association (USA) and the Opening Week Forum 
 of the Biennale of Sydney.</p><p>Claxton was born in Yorkton\, Saskatchewan
 \, and her family reserve is Lakota First Nations—Wood Mountain located in 
 beautiful southwest Saskatchewan. Her paternal Euro-Canadian grandmother ta
 ught her how to harvest and preserve food and her maternal Lakota grandmoth
 er taught her to seek justice.</p><p>When asked to conceive an original wor
 k for this site relating to the theme of “the city before the city\,” Claxt
 on considered precolonial landscapes and animal nations such as elk\, deer\
 , bear\, beaver\, mink\, raccoon\, skunk\, and coyote populations that circ
 ulated through these lands according to their own natural logic. In particu
 lar\, elk form a crucial aspect of First Nations subsistence and spiritual 
 economy. In the Lakota Sioux community\, they hold power as sources of sacr
 ed mana\, integral to ceremonial life. Elk were plentiful in this area for 
 thousands of years\, yet have disappeared in less than two hundred. Those l
 iving in the early Musqueam villages could simply open their doors to find 
 the elk. Today\, Musqueam people are forced to trade up north and into the 
 interior for elk\, as their use remains intrinsic to Musqueam society and c
 ulture.</p><p>Claxton questions out loud: What does this mean for society t
 oday? How are we respecting the “four-leggeds” still among us? What is our 
 relationship with them? Who is responsible for considering them and making 
 sure they are safe? How do we live with them?</p><p>She is asking us to pon
 der the same questions as we look through the grey concrete forest to see t
 he aestheticized elk\, alive in a celebration of colour\, where it once may
  have been standing.</p><p><em>Commissioned by the City of Vancouver Public

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Opening Reception: May 29\, 2015. To June
  20\, 2015.</h4><p>Tribe Inc. is an artist-run centre working outside of th
 e constraints of a fixed gallery location enabling collaborations with vari
 ous institutions. Together Tribe Inc. and AKA artist-run\, formerly ‘Aka Ga
 llery\,’ have maintained a longstanding partnership. In the celebration of 
 Tribe’s 20th Anniversary\, AKA artist-run will host an exhibition of new wo
 rk by <strong>Dana Claxton</strong>. When looking at our history we realize
 d that Claxton was the first solo exhibition that Tribe presented in 1997 a
 nd it was also her first solo exhibition as an artist. The installation pre
 sented in collaboration with ‘Aka Gallery’ has now become one of Claxton’s 
 most influential works of her career. This work was titled Buffalo Bone Chi
 na.</p><p>In Buffalo Bone China Claxton blends performance art\, found obje
 cts and video to dissect the effects upon First Nations peoples due to poli
 cies from colonial Canadian and the United States regarding the state sanct
 ioned extermination of the American bison. Bison were slaughtered and their
  bones crushed and exported to England to make bone china. In the performan
 ce Claxton smashes pieces of china and makes four bundles\, placing the bun
 dles in a sacred circle while a video of buffalo plays in the background. “
 Feeling the loss of the buffalo\, the backbone of Plains spirituality and s
 ustenance\, the artist uses a rubber mallet to destroy plates and bowls. Th
 e breaking of the china refers to the use of buffalo bones in the making of
  bone china during the period of exploitation and decimation of the buffalo
 .”</p><p>Claxton’s new exhibition <em>Dana Claxton\; Revisited</em> will fe
 ature a two channel installation that addresses the issue of land and the i
 ndigenous body specifically in the Plains region:<br /><em><br />”I’m influ
 enced by my own experience as a Lakota woman\, as a Canadian\, a mixed bloo
 d Canadian\, and then my own relationship to the natural and supernatural w
 orld. So taking that whole bundle of experiences\, it all goes in to the ar
 twork\, I think that’s where the multi-layering comes in because I’ve had a
  very multi-layered life. And it’s all those experiences that go in to the 
 work.”</em></p><p>– Dana Claxton\, 2007</p><p><strong>About the artist</str
 ong></p><p>Born of Lakota Sioux descent\, Dana Claxton investigates the ong
 oing impact of colonialism on Aboriginal cultures in North America\, primar
 ily through film\, video and photography. Her practice considers Indigenous
  beauty\, the socio-political and the spiritual\, among other themes. Claxt
 on is well known for her work The Mustang Suite of 2008\, a series of stage
 d photographic portraits of a stylish\, contemporary Aboriginal family. In 
 this series\, each family member is portrayed with their own personalized f
 orm of “mustang\,” whether it be a muscle car or a banana-seat bicycle. She
  has exhibited widely\, including at the Museum of Modern Art\, the Walker 
 Art Center and the Sundance Film Festival. Exhibitions include the 2010 Bie
 nnale of Sydney and “Beat Nation” at the Vancouver Art Gallery and other ve
 nues. Her work is in major collections including those of the National Gall
 ery of Canada\, the Vancouver Art Gallery and the Winnipeg Art Gallery\, an
 d she has received numerous awards including the VIVA Award from the Doris 
 and Jack Shadbolt Foundation and the Eiteljorg Fellowship from the Eiteljor
 g Museum. Dana Claxton is also an assistant professor in the visual arts fa
 culty at the University of British Columbia. Her family reserve is Lakota F
 irst Nations – Wood Mountain.</p>

 /h4><p>This exhibition features prints by Canadian artist Dalla Husband (18
 99-1944) made during her time in Paris through the 1920s and 1930s. Born in
  Winnipeg\, Manitoba in 1899\, Husband grew up in Vernon\, British Columbia
  on her family’s ranch on Lake Kalamalka. Her parents moved to Canada from 
 England around the time of her birth to seek new career opportunities\, whi
 ch eventually brought them to the west coast in 1907. Her father\, Major He
 rbert Husband\, was a rancher who also served two mayoral terms in Vernon p
 rior to his premature and tragic death in 1912. Husband had the luxury of t
 ravelling while growing up\, visiting relatives in Winnipeg at the age of 1
 3 with her father\, as well as going to England twice to visit her grandmot
 her. At the time of her grandmother’s death\, Husband received an inheritan
 ce\, which she chose to spend on a courageous move to pursue her career as 
 an artist overseas in Paris. When she first arrived in 1924\, she worked wi
 th printmaker Joseph Hecht in his studio where she learned the basics of pr
 intmaking\, however when the British artist Stanley William Hayter moved to
  Paris in 1926\, Husband sought after his advice and expertise. Husband and
  fellow female artist Alice Carr de Creeft approached Hayter for further le
 ssons in printmaking and attempting to deter them from asking again\, he sa
 id that he would only work with them if they managed to bring two more stud
 ents. Accordingly\, Husband and de Creeft found two additional students and
  Hayter moved to his own studio down the street from Hecht’s and began the 
 workshop soon to be known as Atelier 17.</p><p>Guest Curated by <strong>Eva

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs June 6 - July 17\, 2015.<
 /h4><p>The Or Gallery is pleased to present <em>#saltandwater: The Palestin
 ian-Israeli Conflict</em>\, an exhibition of four Palestinian artists. In h
 is 1981 book\, The Political Unconscious\, Fredric Jameson asserts the idea
  of Louis Althusser’s “absent cause” within a structure. He posits that the
  structure itself is intrinsic to its effects\, that Jacques Lacan’s “real”
  and Louis Althusser’s “absent cause” can never be represented in their ent
 irety\, as the signifier will always take the place of the signified. In lo
 oking at the Palestinian-Israeli conflict\, Jameson’s argument can bring ne
 w light to the violence and unspeakable totality of the ongoing occupation.
  Seemingly innocuous substances\, salt and water\, can be viewed as materia
 ls which are inherently political. Palestinians now receive at most 73 litr
 es of water per capita\, lower than the World Health Organization’s recomme
 nded 100 litres for daily consumption. The seas are another space of contes
 tation\, as access to the Dead Sea and the Mediterranean Sea is not availab
 le to Palestinians without severe security restrictions.</p><p>The curator\
 , <strong>Margaret Stern</strong>\, selected four Palestinian artists who w
 ork within this theme. They use water and salt as signifiers of the industr
 ialization and politicization of resources with political ramifications for
  the human body. Rehab Nazzal’s <em>A Dead Sea</em>(2010)\, Noor Abuarafeh’
 s <em>A State Closer to Death Than it is to Life</em> (2012)\, Mais Darwaza
 h’s <em>My Love Awaits Me by the Sea</em> (2013) and Ayed Arafah’s <em>Hori
 zon</em> (2010) play with both salt and water to explore issues of boundari
 es and resources. Examining this conflict from the material realm of metaph
 or and bodily necessity allows questions to be asked of the occupation of t
 he Palestinian people\, their subsequent resistance\, and the issues of res
 ources within this area of conflict.</p><p><em>This exhibition is made poss
 ible with support from the Killy Foundation and the Audain Endowment for Cu

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs July 8 to Nov 15\, 2015</
 h4><p>Photographs have played a crucial role in shaping perceptions of nucl
 ear weapons and nuclear energy. Camera Atomica — guest-curated by writer\, 
 curator and art historian John O'Brian — is the first substantial exhibitio
 n of nuclear photography to encompass the entire postwar period from the bo
 mbings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 to the triple meltdown at Fukushim
 a Daiichi in 2011.</p><p>The election of President Ronald Reagan in 1980 ac
 companied an intensification of the Cold War\, and artists and photographer
 s responded in large numbers to the escalating risk of a nuclear confrontat
 ion. The politics of the Cold War also coincided with a cultural debate aro
 und photography and its claims to represent what is “true” or “real.” Much 
 post-1980 nuclear photography reflects altered understandings of the limita
 tions of photography and the dangers of the nuclear arms race.</p><p>Camera
  Atomica addresses pressing issues in the post-war era – nuclear weapons pr
 oliferation\, toxic waste disposal and climate change – as they are represe
 nted in photography. Organized thematically\, it brings together vintage an
 d contemporary photographs\, press and fine arts photographs\, scientific a
 nd touristic images and advertisements and propaganda from a wide range of 
 sources. A discussion room\, designed to evoke a fallout shelter\, conclude
 s the exhibition\, replete with posters\, articles and details about local 
 engagement with atomic energy.</p><p>Beginning with Wilhelm Röntgen’s disco
 very of the X-ray in 1895\, the exhibition includes more than 200 works\, i
 ncluding an installation by Ken + Julia Yonetani\, Ken Domon and Shomei Tom
 atsu’s photographs of hibakusha (survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki)\, Dav
 id McMillan’s photographs at Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant and Sandy Skoglu
 nd’s darkly humorous Radioactive Cats\, as well as works by Nancy Burson\,

 i Higuchi\, Michael Light\, Dean Loomis\, Richard Misrach\, Ishiuchi Miyako
 \, Barbara Norfleet\, Andrea Pinheiro\, Shimpei Takeda\, Donald Weber\, Gar
 ry Winogrand and official U.S. Army and press photographs from the AGO’s co
 llection. Also featured is a recently acquired work by James Welling\, from
  his series The Glass House.</p><p>This exhibition is curated by <strong>Pr

 distance\; little by little\; the censor nods off.  The repressed return to
  the party.  Disguised as humor\, satire or critical homage\, the re-enchan
 tment of the world occurs through barely veiled and often unconscious manif
 estations of cultic ritual.</p><p>Clearly we are not just dealing with the 
 legacy of Joseph Beuys. The materials are different.  No copper\, felt or f
 at this time around. It’s not warm or invitingly tactile.  Nor is it the or
 ganic palette of an imaginary Eurasia (or for that matter the deserts of th
 e American west)  Our neo-archetypes have a penchant for synthetic polymers
 \; painted plastic and polyester.  Our shaman’s garments hide magic between
  layers of garish tinsel and vulgar neon bunting.  A contemporary veneer of
  chic (but of course acceptably cheap) cloaking the archaic vestments.</p><
 p>These are the dressings we use to renovate the museum’s ruins which by no
 w are composed more of conjectural Bondo than any single solid meta-narrati

 op for our supplies?  Aby Wahrburg in aisle six by the lumber.  Winckelmann
  by the spackling paste.  Would you like to guess who’s in plumbing?</p><p>
 This exhibition brings together artists who walk art history through a perf
 ormative trajectory.  Through personal and collective implications their wo
 rk weaves a restaged and abreacted collection of gestalt materials into spe
 cific sites that snake through the ritualistic framework lurking just benea

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Exhibition runs July 17 - August 15\, 201
 5</h4><p><em><strong>What remains of something when most is gone?</strong><
 /em><br />The work in the exhibition Residual Noise weaves together narrati
 ves that touch on notions of collective trauma\, historical weight\, and do
 gma through mediated imagery bringing into question the long lasting and im
 measurable effects of conflict and distress.</p><p>In the work <em>Berlin P
 roject 1945-2013</em>\,<strong> Barrie Jones</strong> has photographed the 
 scars left on architecture in Berlin dated back to the Second World War. Mo
 stly patched\, these surface tears from shrapnel and bullet holes act as a 
 physical reminder of the conflict that threatened to destroy an entire gene
 ration. Jones points to an ordeal that continues to have political and soci
 al ramifications. His objective gaze recognizes a past\, which is embodied 
 in the surface of patched concrete and stone.</p><p><strong>Kate Henderson’
 s </strong>series\,<em> Disintegrations 1 – 40</em>\, is a collection of im
 ages found on the Internet. Working with low-res images of various types of
  cloud\, dust and debris\, Henderson’s work feels both familiar and disorie
 nting as one tries to pinpoint the events embedded in the pixelated image. 
 Henderson’s work not only explores the idea of shared memory by navigating 
 the internet as a source of archive\, but also highlights the oversaturatio
 n and loss that happens in the breakdown when an image is translated from d
 igital platform into print.<br /><em><br />"efficency\, precision and digni
 ty"</em>\, a two channel video by <strong>Pascale Théorêt-Groulx</strong>\,
  uses The Canadian Forces Manual for Drill and Ceremony as an entry point t
 o instruct participants in a set of tasks. The booming anonymous voice of t
 he instructor commands the contributors to perform a directionless group of
  gestures that begin to spiral into the unknown and the absurd. While humor
 ous on the surface\, Théorêt-Groulx’s work sharply critiques the power stru
 ctures in the given scenario and further questions the dogmatic nature of t
 he source material.<br /><em><br />What Remains of something when most is g
 one?</em> This question is seeded in the works phrased in this exhibition. 
 With Jones what remains is resurfaced and transformed in the preservation o
 f these architectural wounds as a form of remembrance and moving forward. W
 ith Henderson what remains is a tapestry of events signified as a bombardme
 nt of images that one cannot separate nor define\, but is constantly in the
  process of negotiating. With Théorêt-Groulx she is drawing political lines
 \, exposing the ideological apparatus that makes conflict happen. Together 
 these pieces collectively navigate history and how it is presented\, rememb
 ered\, forgotten and interpreted.</p><p>Opening Reception: July 17th\, 7-9<

 s a history of all other cinematic images. He holds that we — its viewers a

 idely noted that traditional Confucians have shown a deep\, sustained\, and
  revealing concern with “ritual” (<i>li</i>) and its potential to produce a
 nd exert a range of positive effects—some subtle\, others more profound—on 
 human life. In his talk\, Dr. Ivanhoe will argue that such social rituals i
 n fact do play a critical and vastly underappreciated role in our lives and
  are especially important for living more satisfying and humane lives toget
 her. Dr. Ivanhoe will make his case by introducing some traditional Confuci
 an views about ritual and suggesting ways in which such ideas still do\, ca
 n\, and should play important roles in contemporary life—East or West.</p><

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Reception Thursday\, February 25\, 2016 f
 rom 7:00 – 10:00 pm. To April 2\, 2016.</h4><p>Vancouver\, BC – grunt galle
 ry presents a new exhibition entitled "Sausage Factory" by artists Weronika
  Stepien and Stephen Wichuk.</p><p>The opening night reception will be held
  <strong>Thursday\, February 25\, 2016 from 7:00 – 10:00 pm</strong>. This 
 is a free admission event.  Beer\, wine\, and non-alcoholic drinks will be 
 available for sale at our cash only bar.</p><p>Weronika Stepien and Stephen
  Wichuk examine the operations of food production and how this activity has
  been represented in literature\, industrial films\, and popular cinema. A 
 selection of related movement images are disassembled and their various mot
 ivations and structural components reconstituted to produce a series of new
  video works.</p><p>In one instance\, a set of inexpensive consumer goods h
 aunted by physical\, mimetic and mythic affinities to sausage making are su
 mmoned\, to reenact a centuries old sight-gag. In another\, movements captu
 red in a tradition of scientific management are pushed through the tedious 
 yet fantastical mill of cel animation.<br />The resultant images collapse h
 istorical time with the time of production\, and in so doing reveal uncanny
  movements of capital and desire.</p><p>The exhibition will remain on displ
 ay until April 2\, 2016 during gallery hours (Tuesday – Saturday\, noon – 5
 :00 pm).</p><p><strong>ARTIST BIO</strong></p><p>Weronika Stepien is a Poli
 sh-American interdisciplinary artist who graduated from Emily Carr Universi
 ty’s Film and Video + Integrated Media program in 2009. In 2007 she studied
  audio visual art at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. Her artwork
  incorporates forms of visual storytelling\, psychology and experiments in 
 shape and movement. Her work has been exhibited in Chicago\, Germany\, Sing
 apore\, and Vancouver. She has been teaching animation to children and yout
 h since 2008.</p><p>Stephen Wichuk is an animator and arts educator born in
  Edmonton\, Alberta. He received a Bachelor of Media Arts at the Emily Carr
  Institute in 2005 and a an MFA from the University of British Columbia in 
 2013. His works have been exhibited and screened at the Morris and Helen Be

 m sharp<br />Curated by <strong>Léa Toulouse</strong></p><p>The exhibition 
 Ogema: I Am Woman centers matriarchal modes of seeing and being: representa
 tions of First Nations as seen and created by female artists Indigenous to 
 North America. The exhibition is at once a celebration and testimony that m
 akes visible Indigenous accomplishments with a focus on positive and constr
 uctive counteractions against the colonial violence Indigenous people\, and
  specifically Indigenous women\, have endured and continue to endure.</p><p
 >This exhibition seeks to challenge what we know about Indigenous women’s r
 oles and lives with new and diverse representations of Indigenous matriarch
 y\, so that we may be better equipped to create and apply new values in our
  everyday lives. This exhibition demonstrates one vision of Indigenous femi
 nist leadership in action\, bringing to the fore various ways Indigenous wo
 men create\, practice\, and live their traditional matriarchal values. The 
 artists' works speak through and beyond colonial history and language with 
 reference to the idea of ‘resurgence’ posited by Leanne Simpson in Dancing 
 on our Turtle’s Back. An integral part of resurgence are creation stories—s
 tories that make up a significant part of the framework of Indigenous ident
 ity.</p><p>According to Simpson\, we are taught to insert our-selves into t
 he story\, as the artists do by capturing their own depictions of Indigenei
 ty. The term resurgence as defined by Simpson serves to enrich the definiti
 on of the matriarch as it pertains to Indigenous people. This exhibition wi
 ll establish the role of Indigenous women in decolonization as first and fo
 remost self-determined\, as well as raise questions surrounding decolonial 
 theories and traditions in the contempo-rary contexts of both art and polit
 ics\, using the act of creation as a political performance.</p><p><em>This 
 exhibition is curated by Léa Toulouse and is a collaboration between the Cr
 itical and Curatorial Studies Program at the University of British Columbia
  and Winsor Gallery. This project is made possible with the support from th
 e Killy Foundation and the Audain Endowment for Curatorial Studies through

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Symposium runs March 10 – 11 and Exhibiti
 on runs March 10 – April 2</h4><p>The 39th Annual University of British Col
 umbia Department of Art History\, Visual Art & Theory Graduate Symposium is
  pleased to announce that this year’s event\, The Margin is the Centre\, wi
 ll take place from March 10 – 11\, 2016. The concurrent exhibition\, curate
 d by the Graduate Symposium Committee\, will open from 5 – 7pm on March 10\
 , at the AHVA Gallery in the Audain Art Centre.</p><p>The Margin is the Cen
 tre will engage with and bridge materialist\, cultural\, geopolitical\, and
  medium-oriented discourses on marginality within art and art history at a 
 moment when the stability of the centre-margin binary is rapidly deteriorat
 ing. The political and cultural potential of marginality\, as well as the p
 ersistent actions of the former centre\, saturates contemporary discourse a
 nd reflects the historical progression of global de-colonial efforts\, glob
 alization\, and the acceleration of late capital. Artistic-activist interve
 ntions\, new approaches within marginalized discourses in art history\, and
  subalternized artistic practices and objects ask us to re-evaluate the dyn
 amic process of constitution and identification at play in the centre-margi
 n binary. Perhaps the decentering work required by these practices can enco
 urage us to see each margin as a centre of its own. The AHVA Graduate Sympo
 sium proposes a self-reflexive examination of this shifting dichotomy withi
 n art and art history\, as well as the social sciences and humanities at la
 rge.</p><p>The keynote speaker will be Byron Hamann\, from the Department o

 atorial Studies MA student Justin Barski</h4><p><strong>Opening Reception</
 strong><br />Friday May 13th<br />8:00 pm<br />Or Gallery</p><p>The Or Gall
 ery is pleased to present <em>Security Theatre</em>\, an exhibition featuri
 ng works by Karl Burke\, Harun Farocki\, An-My Lê and the Bureau of Inverse
  Technology.</p><p><em>Security Theatre</em> revolves around methods of sim
 ulation and documentation and their hold on respective truth claims about m
 odern war. Specifically\, this exhibition looks at how modern warfare is ra
 tionalised\, remembered and portrayed across image based media such as elec
 tronic games\, video and photography. The exhibition examines how these sys
 tems manifest and evolve into the 21st century\, which sees war increasingl
 y fought by proxy and through remote digital means. While claims of possess
 ing the humanist high ground remain tied to the Western Bloc\, they are no 
 longer linked to the policy of deterrence seen in the 20th century\, but in
 stead are tied to myths of precision and expedience in a preemptive first s
 trike context. Just as there were efforts in the 20th century to socialise 
 people to the omnipresent threats of nuclearism\, so too is there an effort
  to socialise people to the endless need for conflict underwritten by the u
 biquitous threat of terrorist states and actors. This requires the creation
  of dissociative mental states. While the past mass dissociation of the Col
 d War addressed the need to prevent nuclear war by preparing for it\, today
 ’s dissociation follows the need to prevent terrorism by engaging in it. Th
 e technology used and the social conditions required were developed increme
 ntally with the aid of experts in various fields\, with the aim of gaining 
 either tacit or explicit endorsement of so-called “security policies” which
  are largely maintained through obfuscation and manipulation. The artists i
 ncluded use media and techniques that provide an intrinsic sense of objecti
 ve documentation when making reference to armed conflict and related events
 \, which interpret and manage expectations of modern war.</p><h4><strong>Ab
 out the Artists</strong></h4><p><strong>The Bureau of Inverse Technology</s
 trong><br />The Bureau of Inverse Technology (<span class="caps">BIT</span>
 ) began as a collective of anonymous artists working at the intersection of
  art and technology. Though their work is publicly available\, not much is 
 known about the artists themselves. Formed in either 1991 or 1992 (reports 
 vary)\, <span class="caps">BIT</span> is based in at least three locations:
  Melbourne\, San Francisco and Berlin. <span class="caps">BIT</span>’s arti
 st-engineers are involved in design\, deployment and documentation of produ
 cts based on commercially available electronic components such as cameras\,
  radios\, networks\, robots\, sensors\, etc. Their stated aim is to be an i
 nformation agency servicing the Information Age. In 2004 information was re
 leased about the founding members: engineer/theorist Natalie Jeremijenko an
 d radio journalist Kate Rich\, in addition to artist Daniela Tigani. The an
 onymity of the Bureau was in part a strategy to reflect on the anonymity of
  technical production – the diffused accountability and ethnographic anonym
 ity in which information technologies and software are generally produced. 
 <span class="caps">BIT</span> works with information technology as its prim
 ary material\, re-engineering technical systems to address the hidden polit
 ics of technology. <span class="caps">BIT</span> questions the safety of th
 e corporate imagination and its design upon our technological futures and r
 aises questions of privacy in an increasingly technological world. It prese
 nts chilling possibilities of a future reminiscent of George Orwell’s novel
  <em>1984</em>\, in which unsettling\, voyeuristic ways of applying readily
  available technology erode privacy. Its media products include economic in
 dices\, consumer-level network and visualisation devices\, as well as video
 s\, sound works\, and specialised installations.</p><p><strong>Karl Burke</
 strong><br />Karl Burke (b.1969) is an Irish photographer living and workin
 g in Dublin\, Ireland. His interest in photography started in 1987 while st
 udying at Trinity College Dublin\, from which he graduated in 1990 with a B
 achelor’s Degree in Law. After completing his professional qualifications i
 n 1993 he became a full-time musician in an alternative rock band. He trave
 lled to Berlin and lived there between 1994 and 1995\, concentrating on pai
 nting. Returning to Ireland he then practiced as a lawyer for several years
 \, finally leaving the legal profession in 2002 to set up a studio writing 
 music for film\, television and commercials. Burke departed the studio in 2
 008 to return to photography on a full-time basis. He won the Grand Prix pr
 ize at Fotofestiwal Łódź in 2013 for his project <em>The Harvest of Death v
 2.0.</em> His work has been exhibited in Ireland\, Germany\, Poland\, Lithu
 ania\, Argentina and the <span class="caps">USA</span> and has been publish
 ed by <em>The Washington Post\; Diário Económico\; The Sunday Times\; The I
 rish Times\; The British Journal of Photography\; Lens\,</em> the photojour
 nalism blog of <em>The New York Times</em>\; and others. His work aims to e
 xplore the underlying threads connecting science\, the self\, and notions o
 f reality\, with a particular interest in the impact of technology on human
  behaviour.</p><p><strong>Harun Farocki</strong><br />The German film direc
 tor\, screenwriter and media artist Harun Farocki was born in 1944 to an In
 dian father and a German mother\, in Nazi controlled Czechoslovakia. Farock
 i studied Theatre\, Sociology and Journalism in West Berlin in the 1960s. I
 nfluenced by Jean-Luc Godard and Bertolt Brecht\, Farocki gradually develop
 ed his unique style of non-narrative filmmaking concerned with understandin
 g\, reflecting and confronting modern society. Since 1966 Farocki produced\
 , wrote and directed more than 100 short and feature-length films for telev
 ision and cinema\, mostly documentaries and essay films that analyzed socia
 l realities with a precise use of moving images\, and always included the p
 olitical and sociological context involved in the creation of imagery. Sinc
 e 1996 Farocki had numerous group and solo exhibitions in museums and galle
 ries worldwide\, including New York\, Vienna and Paris\, followed by retros
 pectives of his films in London and Warsaw. Farocki’s participation in the 
 prestigious documenta in 1997 and 2007 is an indication of the huge impact 
 that his films and video installations have had in the art context and in t
 he film world: six of his films were presented in the “Forum” of the Berlin
  International Film Festival and two more films won awards at the Locarno I
 nternational Film Festival in 2003 and 2007. In 2009 the influential French
  magazine Cahiers du cinéma named Farocki’s and Andrei Ujica’s celebrated m
 asterpiece Videogramme einer Revolution (1992) one of the 10 most subversiv
 e films ever made. Farocki’s life included writing about film and teaching 
 media. As a teacher Farocki had a significant cinematic and intellectual in
 fluence on the development of the acclaimed “Berlin School” film movement. 
 He co-wrote five celebrated feature films with its most prominent member Ch
 ristian Petzold\, who used to be his student and assistant. Harun Farocki d
 ied at the age of 70 in July 2014 in his home near Berlin.</p><p><strong>An
 -My Lê</strong><br />An-My Lê’s photographs of landscapes transformed by wa
 r or other forms of military activity blur the boundaries between fact and 
 fiction and are rich with layers of meaning. Born in Saigon in 1960\, she c
 ame to the United States in 1975 as a political refugee. Much of Lê’s work 
 is inspired by her own experience of war and dislocation. From black and wh
 ite images of her native Vietnam taken on various return visits in 1994 to 
 pictures of Vietnam War battle re-enactments in rural America\, her photogr
 aphs straddle the documentary and the conceptual\, creating a neutral persp
 ective that brings the essential ambiguity of the medium to the fore. In he
 r series <em>29 Palms</em> (2003–2004)\, Lê documents American soldiers tra
 ining in a desert in Southern California before their deployment to Iraq. S
 he focuses her camera alternately on young recruits and the harsh terrain i
 n which they practice their drills\, lending an obvious artificiality to th
 e photographs that invites speculation about the romance and myth of contem
 porary warfare. Currently\, Lê is documenting the U.S. military’s presence 
 at sites around the world where personnel are undertaking training missions
 \, patrolling international waterways\, and offering humanitarian aid. An a
 dditional series in progress explores the ongoing ties between Vietnamese n
 ationals who have migrated to southern Louisiana over the past twenty-five 
 years and their homeland in the Mekong Delta.<br />An-My Lê received B.A.S.
  (1981) and M.S. (1985) degrees from Stanford University and an M.F.A. (199
 3) from Yale University. Since 1998\, she has been affiliated with Bard Col
 lege\, where she is currently a professor in the Department of Photography.
  Her work has been exhibited at such venues as the Museum of Modern Art\, N
 ew York\; MoMA PS1\, New York\; The Art Institute of Chicago\; the Metropol
 itan Museum of Art\, New York\; Dia: Beacon\; the Museum of Contemporary Ph
 otography\, Chicago\; <span class="caps">TATE</span> Modern\, London\; the 
 Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\; and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\
 , among many others. In 2012\, Lê was awarded a John D. and Catherine T. Ma
 cArthur Foundation Fellowship in recognition of her accomplishments as a ph
 otographer and her contributions to the evolution of the medium. Recently s
 he has had major survey shows at the Baltimore Museum of Art\; MK Gallery\,
  UK\; <span class="caps">MAS</span> I Museum aan de Stroom\, Antwerp\; and

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Ongoing archive on the culture of tobacco
 \, May 21 - July 16\, 2016</h4><p>L’ESCALIER is proud to present Inhale Exi
 le\, a curatorial project by the art group Knowles Eddy Knowles. Inhale Exi
 le presents a selection of the artists’ ongoing archive on the culture of t
 obacco and invites the participation of a number of artists whose work has 
 touched on the motif.</p><p>“(...) I think smoke has had its hay day so by 
 by. In the end I don’t think allowing smoking extends creativity and conver
 sation. The late 60s and early 70s were generally easy going - the economy 
 was good\, once the Vietnam war ended\, even better - people felt free and 
 optimistic and risk taking\, playing with context and deconstruction was th
 e order of the day.”<br />- David Askevold in email correspondence\, June 2
 6th\, 2006</p><p>We first started to formulate a curatorial project around 
 tobacco in 2006. Over the ensuing years\, while the idea became the engine 
 for a series of sculptures\, performances and texts\, the overall curatoria
 l project became one of those endeavours that seemed\, at least institution
 ally speaking\, questionable. Starting much earlier\, but reaching a head d
 uring this era\, smoking bans also swept across the world. It seemed the “h
 ay day” [sic] that Askevold spoke of\, was over. But what else was over? An
 d what would arise in its place?</p><p>Going back\, cigarettes have occupie
 d a complicated space of both liberal attitudes and meticulous design throu
 gh its modern history. Our own interest in this paradox initially began fro
 m seeing how institutions (like NSCAD\, where we came together\, and which 
 Askevold was responding about) roughly simultaneously regulated both academ
 ically and in terms of smoking\, as we absorbed stories about the golden da
 ys. But aside from biopolitical ironies\, which populate this project\, smo
 king can be seen as one of the great design conflicts of the globe. Mediati
 ng and creating cultures in potent ways across its rise and fall\, smoking 
 has spawned an array of novel spaces\, objects and rituals: from ashtrays t
 o smoking huts\, from doctor's kudos in glossy ads to graphic medical image
 ry on packages\, from icon of freedom to mark of addiction.</p><p>This over
 all project includes the mingling of documentation and artifacts showing to
 bacco’s changing societal role with a number of new works by contemporary a
 rtists who have already dealt with these and related issues in their work. 
 Their pieces investigate the contradictory dispositions this tiny object ha
 s articulated along the tides of its fame. Obviously\, we each have our own
  take on tobacco. Science and culture inform these. This project is no matt
 er of lamentation or comic revisiting. The problematic notion of a large\, 
 generic exhibition in a public museum\, which Inhale Exile performs\, seemi
 ng not to pass judgment on its topic\, is something we hold onto rather tha
 n streamline for feasibility. The question of Inhale Exile’s own historical
  authority and global ambition is central to the design of this project\, a
 nd the reason we seek to foreground mediation and fragmentation through the
  process.</p><p>- Knowles Eddy Knowles</p><p>This iteration\, subtitled “th
 e break\,” consists of two parts: an installation in the space of L’escalie
 r\, and a screenings of video works punctuating the run of the exhibition. 
 The smoke break and the discourses and speech acts (rumours\, counter-histo
 ries) produced there are understood as aesthetic potentialities of smoking 
 culture. In institutional contexts\, these breaks have engendered reconfigu
 rations of time and space\, the sharing of informal comments or opinions\, 
 private thoughts in public.</p><p>The first part of the exhibition at L’esc
 alier runs between May 21 and July 16\, 2016 with subsequent iterations pla
 nned for later in the year.</p><p>“The break” includes works by: Sean Lynch

  Columbia</p><p>Gallery hours: Tuesday\, Wednesday\, Friday\, and Saturday 
 12– 6 PM\, and by appointment.<br />The gallery is closed on Sunday\, Monda
 y\, and Thursday.</p><p><em>Absence in Remembrance</em> centres on the reme
 mbrance and commemoration of the experience and legacy of the Japanese Cana
 dian Internment\, which began in British Columbia and unfolded across Canad
 a during World War II. At a generational remove from the internment experie
 nce\, each artist has come to know and “remember” the experience indirectly
  through different encounters and means\, including oral testimonies\, fami
 ly photographs\, novels\, and archival research. Each work is both an act o
 f remembering and form of remembrance that includes photography\, painting\
 , printmaking\, and photo-based light and video installation. The range in 
 medium speaks to the nuanced and disjunctive ways in which history is exper
 ienced\, transmitted\, and received\; and\, concomitantly\, how it is remem
 bered and recreated for transmission to future generations. Never fully for
 med in and of themselves\, history and memory remain pliable concepts\, par
 ticularly in relation to trauma.</p><p>Central to each work in this exhibit
 ion are fragments\, voids\, and absences. The Japanese Canadian internment 
 — as a process of registration\, dispossession\, removal\, and incarceratio
 n in Canada\, and even deportation to Japan — is a history predicated on th
 e absence\, silence\, and invisibility of Japanese Canadians imposed under 
 the authority of the War Measures Act. In the works\, pictorial elements pr
 ovoke investigation of the absences and silences that continue to haunt the
  remembrance of the internment experience in the present and the implicatio
 ns for its transmission in the future.</p><p>In its new location on Frankli
 n Street\, Franc Gallery is situated near Powell Street where\, in the Down
 town Eastside\, a prominent Japanese Canadian community lived prior to its 
 forced removal in 1942. Once referred to as “Little Tokyo” and “Japan Town\
 ,” today Powell Street discloses little about its past. Exhibiting <em>Abse
 nce in Remembrance</em> near this historical neighborhood relocates the rem
 embrance of the Japanese Canadian Internment closer to the spatial context 
 in which it began to unfold in Vancouver and British Columbia. Paradoxicall
 y\, the attempt to relocate and remember this history and its legacy in Van
 couver illuminates what continues to be forgotten\, hidden\, and obscured. 
 Issues of racism\, forcible displacement and citizenship are still urgent a
 nd pertinent today\, nearly seventy-five years after the internment.</p><p>
 <strong>Artist Talk: Cindy Mochizuki<br />Archives of After Images<br />Sat
 urday\, June 18<br />1-2 PM</strong></p><p>This talk will focus on Mochizuk
 i’s artistic practice that explores multi-media\, photography\, and memory 
 work in public and private archives. Interested in methods of working with 
 the after images of war and historical memory\, Mochizuki will discuss how 
 the production of the after image continues to live on and shape how family
  members remember experiences even after the traumatic events have ceased. 
 Mochizuki will speak to her work <em>Panorama Series I</em> that explores t
 he remembrance of the Japanese Canadian internment through a familial lens.

 than Brown (Departement of English\, Concordia University)\, Adam Dickinson
  (English Language & Literature\, Brock University)\, Gareth James (Visual

 Media Studies\, Concordia University)\, Christine Ross (Art History and Com

 rature\, University of California\, Irvine)\, David Tomas (École des arts v
 isuels et médiatiques\, Université du Québec à Montréal). Moderators: Vince
 nt Bonin and Erik Bordeleau.</p><p>This symposium seeks to create a favoura
 ble environment to reiterate the dialogical structure that Catherine Malabo
 u has consistently adopted since the beginning of her philosophical path. B
 y intersecting distinct voices in her writing or by co-signing works with i
 nterlocutors from several disciplines\, the oscillation between question an
 d answer has produced discursive sequences where the proximity of texts by 
 Malabou and her peers reveals their origin in ventriloquism. That is\, the 
 act of making a body utter the words of others\, while recognizing the emer
 gence of a singularity through this delegated speech. While acknowledging t
 he concept of plasticity that Malabou famously redefined through a transver
 sal approach with the publication of The Future of Hegel: Plasticity\, Temp
 orality and Dialectic (1996\, 2005)\, speakers at the symposium will contri
 bute to a debate initiated more recently by the philosopher on the boundari
 es of biopolitics.</p><p>In What Should We Do with our Brains? (2004\, 2008
 )\, Malabou juxtaposed the explosive character of neuroplasticity as the br
 ain’s mode of resistance with the injunctions of economic flexibility. In T
 he New Wounded: From Neurosis to Brain Damage (2007\, 2012)\, she approache
 d the ontological dimension of trauma and other extreme afflictions that re
 nder persons indifferent to their own suffering. In the same  book\, she al
 so attempted to redefine the notion of trauma\, which had normally been res
 tricted to its psychoanalytic sense and\, therefore\, always already linked
  to attempts to find the origin of psychic ills. Together with the doctor X
 avier Emmanuelli\, she then wrote La grande exclusion: L'urgence sociale\, 
  symptômes et thérapeutique (2009)\, providing an analysis of the state of 
 emergency and proposing therefore to redefine the assistance provided to ex
 cluded subjects who would no longer aspire\, at first\, to a social reinteg
 ration. In recent years\, the reception of this portion of Malabou’s work g
 oes beyond disciplinary fields. For instance\, the anthology Plastic Materi
 alities: Politics\, Legality\, and Metamorphosis in the Work of<br />Cather
 ine Malabou\, edited by Brenna Bhadar and Jonathan Goldberg-Hiller (2015)\,
  gathers texts situated at the crossroads of psychoanalysis\, forensic anth
 ropology\, gender and post-colonialism studies. Malabou’s three essays publ
 ished in this book offer a critical take on the conventional deconstruction
  in the concepts of sovereignty and the posthuman\, which\, according to he
 r\, neglects the contingency of the biological. Avoiding all determinism\, 
 Malabou again raises the need to take into account contemporary discoveries
  about the brain and epigenetics to expand the scope of a definition of the
  mutability of subjectivity. Recently Malabou has deepened the thesis propo
 sed in those three texts\, examining the figures of the body (Michel Foucau
 lt)\, the animal (Jacques Derrida) and bare life (Giorgio Agamben). She pro
 poses that the philosophical discipline has to partly let go of these conce
 ptual formations consolidating the stronghold of the symbolic\, and rather 
 contribute to a recognition of the resistance of life\, not soluble in the 
 established discourses of power.</p><p>Part of this ongoing research will b
 e presented by Malabou during a seminar under the auspices of the Universit
 é du Québec en Outaouais (taking place at the Musée d'art contemporain des 
 Laurentides)\, dedicated to the revaluation of the concept of the sacred in
  Giorgio Agamben’s book series Homo sacer (1996-2016). The content of the s
 ymposium will extend the spectrum of issues discussed during the seminar. A
 s these events around the work of Malabou are accompanied by an exhibition 
 at the Musée d’art<br />contemporain des Laurentides\, art and aesthetics w
 ill also be addressed\, while not foregrounded. Catherine  Malabou will giv
 e a keynote. While some speakers intend to offer a more targeted analysis o
 f the work of the philosopher\, exegesis will be bypassed in favour of disc
 ussion. Each participant’s intervention will stem from their privileged are
 a of research. Panels will be followed by a moderated plenary\, during whic
 h Catherine Malabou will also intervene.</p><p><a href="http://www.museelau

 a photographable subject in the British Empire at the beginning of the twen
 tieth century\, taking as its focus an archive of 6\,700 images produced by
  the Colonial Office Visual Instruction Committee: an unusual education pro
 ject\, developed by the British government\, that used photographic lantern
 slides to teach viewers what it meant to look and to feel like imperial cit
 izens. Photographs of migration were central to COVIC’s picturing of imperi
 al citizenship\, a non-legal category of belonging that promised British su
 bjects equal rights in spite of the differences – of race\, class\, ethnici
 ty\, and gender – that photography had so forcefully contributed to solidif
 ying and visualizing in the past. Beginning from close readings of several 
 photographs included in the lectures on Canada\, published in 1913\, and te
 lescoping out to consider how these images responded to (and often contradi
 cted) contemporaneous representations of immigrants and other non- or would
 -be citizens\, the lecture considers how photography has shaped what Sukany
 a Banerjee terms the “extra-legal dimensions of citizenship” for racialized
  subjects in Canada.</p><p>+ + +</p><p><strong>Gabrielle Moser</strong> is

  Peter Wall Institute International Visting Research Scholar</h4><p>Please 
 contact the AHVA Visual Resources Centre for access to the event recording:
  <a href="mailto:ahva.vrc@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca</a>.</p><p>In the so-call
 ed “Pictorial Chapters” of <em>Moby-Dick</em>\, the narrator Ishmael discus
 ses “monstrous\,” “erroneous\,” and “true pictures” of whales\, while shift
 ing the meaning of representation and the meaning of truth from modern Euro
 pean to a-modern and non-European notions. Unmoored in his existence\, floa
 ting between North America and Oceania\, Ishmael’s articulations not only a
 ntedate the “practical turn” in art history\, but also outline a stunning c
 ritique of pictures\, which founds representation in non-representational f
 orms of mimesis\, like attachment. Here\, chains of operations connect huma
 n and non-human actors (like whales and whale bones)\, while the notion of 
 a non-representable and undecipherable “inscrutable thing” points to the un
 fathomable ground of all representation. Linked together\, the elements of 
 this critique form the rudiments of a theory of art as cultural technique.<

 rday\, December 3\, 2 PM</p><p>In Canada\, art making concerned with landsc
 ape is unavoidably tied to the narratives of place – local and nationalist\
 , Indigenous and non-Indigenous. The thematic of the Canadian landscape in 
 Canadian art\, say\, through the viewpoint of artists such as Lawren Harris
  and A.Y. Jackson\, is an expansive and problematic subject matter that cam
 e to communicate the character of a wildly romanticized northern environmen
 t.</p><p>Such desperately romantic ideas about what can summarily be called
  “the environment” (the “it” in the title) turn on a Faustian paradox: huma
 n survival requires the extraction of resources\, the consequences of which
  threaten planetary existence. In the face of a seemingly unstoppable and i
 ncreasingly injurious transformation of the world\, there are related binar
 ies between humans and nature – the tamed and the wild\, the known and the 
 unknown\, and the mechanized and the untainted. These are contemplated by t
 he contemporary works of Ruth Beer\, Douglas Coupland\, Beau Dick\, Christo
 s Dikeakos\, Keith Doyle\, Michael Drebert\, Germaine Koh\, Ebony Rose\, Ki
 ka Thorne\, and Samonie Toonoo\, which reveal the narratives of human endea
 vour contained within landscapes\, amid concerns about tipping points\, oce
 an gyres\, chlorofluorocarbons\, and melting ice caps.</p><p>– Michael Prok

 p>Peter von Tiesenhausen has exhibited and lectured widely across Canada as
  well as in Europe\, the United States\, and Mexico. He has had more than f
 ifty solo and many group exhibitions\, which have been widely reviewed and 
 the subject of three national television documentaries including a one-hour
  award-winning film\, <em>Elemental</em>\, produced in 2000 for <em>Adrienn
 e Clarkson Presents</em>.</p><p>His multidisciplinary practice includes pai
 nting\, sculpture\, drawing\, printmaking\, installation\, event\, video\, 
 and performance. His work often involves the community in which he is worki
 ng and uses the materials to be found there. He has created several permane
 nt and ephemeral public artworks throughout North America and in Europe and
  has works in many public and private collections.</p><p>The land where he 
 lives constitutes his primary and ongoing artwork. In the mid-1990s\, he wo
 n a challenge against an oil pipeline that was proposed across his property
  outside Demmitt\, Alberta\, about an hour northwest of Grande Prairie\, by
  copyrighting the top 6" of the surface of his land as a work of art (he ha
 d done some land art on his property)\, effectively forcing the pipeline to
  take on expensive reroutes because it would destroy the work of art. This 
 is a cunning and important moment in Canadian art and land art\, and epheme
 ra from this copyright claim will be presented in the exhibition at the UBC
  AHVA Gallery. von Tiesenhausen will use this moment of his career to enter
  into a discussion about his broader perspectives and diverse modes of artm
 aking.</p><p>Image: <em>Witness</em>\, human and bear marks on aspen\, cour

 Contemporary Tibetan art has recently begun to receive great attention from
  museums and collectors worldwide. This new development marks an exciting m
 ovement within the rich\, established lineage of Tibetan art history. Tenzi
 ng Rigdol is one of the leading avant-garde artists\, producing complex and
  thought-provoking artwork that are the products of collective influences a
 nd interpretations of age-old traditions. Strongly influenced by philosophy
 \, they capture the ongoing issues of human conflicts and have strong polit
 ical undertones. For Rigdol\, politics is an unavoidable element in his art
 . Indeed\, his artworks reconstruct traditional Tibetan ways of thinking\, 
 questioning and interrogating the complex foreign influences and eliciting 
 its own identity. His art—personal at its core\, yet intertwined with the e
 xperience of being a Tibetan in this post-colonial world—regenerates the di
 splaced voice.</p><p><a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScpH

 e talk here.</a></p><p><strong>Tenzing Rigdol</strong> is a leading contemp
 orary Tibetan artist and activist\, born in Kathmandu\, Nepal in 1982 to Ti
 betan refugee parents. Rigdol’s work has been exhibited in important galler
 ies and museums in Europe and North America\, including the Metropolitan Mu
 seum of Art. In 2014\, Rigdol was one of only two contemporary Tibetan arti
 sts to be included in the exhibition Tibet and India: New Beginnings at the
  Metropolitan Museum of Art\, New York. His “Pin Drop Silence: Eleven-Heade
 d Avalokitesvara” was also the first work by a contemporary Tibetan artist 
 to be acquired by the Met. Rigdol is perhaps most well known for his 2011 “
 Our Land\, Our People\,” a public installation in Dharmsala\, India created
  from some 20\,000 kgs of Tibetan soil smuggled across the border from Shig
 atse. Rigdol is featured in the film “Bringing Tibet Home” that documents t
 his extraordinary project.</p><p><em>This event is sponsored by the Himalay

 ="300" /></p><p>As one of the most important philosophers of the twentieth 
 century\, Michel Foucault’s reputation today rests on his political philoso
 phy in relation to the contemporary subject in a neoliberal and globalized 
 society. This book offers insight into the role of the arts in Foucault’s t
 hought as a means to better understanding his contribution to larger debate
 s concerning contemporary existence. Visual culture\, literary\, film and p
 erformance studies have all engaged with Foucauldian theories\, but a full 
 examination of Foucault’s significance for aesthetic discourse has been lac
 king until now. This book argues that Foucault’s particular approach to phi
 losophy as a way of thinking the self through the work of art provides sign
 ificant grounds for rethinking his impact today.</p><p>Books will be availa

 ><p>Las partes que más me sudan cuando me pongo nervioso [The Parts of Me t
 hat Sweat the Most When I Get Nervous]\, a large\, diptych drawing of a swe
 ating male nude\, is both a self-portrait and a fictional character. The wo
 rk\, installed in the main floor of Koerner Library evokes graphic humour w
 hile dealing with marginal aspects of human sexuality and the physical natu
 re of bodies. Connotations of a day-to-day physicality\, including scatolog
 ical and psychological concerns come through in the image of a sweating\, n
 ervous man\,whose placement leaves him open to inspection and scrutiny. Iro
 ny plays a role\, as this peculiar personal moment subverts any common noti
 on of male machismo. In the tradition of cartooning\, a bare minimum of lin
 e and written text convey a simple message about bodily function that leads
  to a related question: what personal moments are occurring in our bodies w
 hen we are in public situations?</p><p>Antonio Eligio Fernández\, known as 
 Tonel\, is an artist\, scholar\, critic\, and curator. He has worked extens
 ively in Cuba\, Latin America\, Europe\, Canada and the United States. His 
 early formation as an artist included regular publication of his drawings a
 nd cartoons\, notably in DDT\, a bi-weekly humour magazine published in Cub
 a in the 1970s. His articles and essays on Cuban and Latin American contemp
 orary art have been published regularly in Cuba and elsewhere.</p><p>This p
 roject is a collaboration of the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery and th
 e Walter C. Koerner Library at the University of British Columbia\, and is

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>SFU's Vancity Office of Community Engagem
 ent and the Audain Gallery present this talk by Jaleh Mansoor</h4><p>The Ge
 neral Strike\, the organized refusal to work among a critical mass of labor
 ers\, has been attendant upon and responsive to the Capitalist form of accu
 mulation since the latter’s inception. Having variously emerged and receded
  as a broadly recognized means of resistance since the mid 19th C\, the pot
 ential of a general strike to precipitate capitalism's inherent tendency to
  crisis was recently forcefully expressed by the anti-austerity movement in
  Greece and in Spain. A general strike interrupts the availability of labou
 r foundational to the production of value which enables capitalism to valor
 ize things over people\, and to press other life processes (politics\, love
 \, art\, science) into the service of itself – that is\, profit maximizatio
 n.</p><p>Over the last forty years\, the general strike has come to be reco
 gnized as a constellation of strategies and tactics that ramify in areas of
  social life not immediately bound up with value production. Early to arriv
 e at the insight that the strike could cross social categories historically
  developed for the express purpose of capitalist reorganization of all life
 \, yet ideologically couched as natural and self-evident – social categorie
 s such as the nuclear family\, the modern home\, the organization of public
  versus private life -- the feminist movement in Italy in the late 1970s re
 cognized the relevance of a “strike” as a revolutionary force more elementa
 l than a bid for mere reforms within the system.</p><p><strong>Jaleh Mansoo
 r</strong> completed her PhD at Columbia University in 2007. She has taught
  at SUNY Purchase\, Barnard College\, Columbia University\, and Ohio Univer
 sity before coming to the University of British Columbia.</p><p>With respon
 ses from Randy Lee Cutler and Jeff Derksen</p><p>Moderated by writer and cr
 itic Kathleen Ritter</p><p><a href="http://sfuwoodwards.ca/index.php/events

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Please join guest curator\, <strong>Babak 
 Golkar</strong> for an intimate tour of the exhibition Friendship of Nation
 s: Polish Shi'ite Showbiz and a discussion around the works of artist colle
 ctive Slavs and Tatars. Following the tour\, artist and educator <strong>Ga
 reth James</strong> will provide some reflections on the exhibition after w
 hich the two will engage in a conversation about some of the ideas around t
 he works.</p><p><strong>About the exhibition:</strong></p><p>Friendship of 
 Nations: Polish Shi'ite Showbiz traces a shared genealogy between Iran and 
 Poland. Beginning as an investigation into the Iranian Revolution of 1979 a
 nd the Solidarity movement of 1980\; two key moments that bookend the stori
 es of twenty-first century Islamic modernity and twentieth-century communis
 m\, respectively - the project draws on research that stretches from the se
 venteenth-century Sarmatism of the Polish nobility\, to the recent Green mo
 vement in Iran. Channeling the folklore and artisanal crafts of both cultur
 es\, Slavs and Tatars examine the potential for these modes of production t
 o embody\, extend and build upon the ideological impulse of 1979 and 1989 r
 espectively.</p><p><strong>About the artists:</strong></p><p>Slavs and Tata
 rs is an artist collective devoted to exploring the cultures of Eurasia\, w
 hich extends roughly from the former Berlin Wall to the Great Wall of China
 . Their artwork spans several media\, disciplines\, and a broad spectrum of
  cultural forms\, focusing on an oft-forgotten sphere of influence between 
 Slavs\, Caucasians and Central Asians. Their internationally acclaimed proj
 ects have been exhibited at the 10th Sharjah\, 8th Mercosul\, 3rd Thessalon
 iki\, and 9th Gwangju Biennials and Museum of Modern Art\, New York.</p><p>
 <strong>Babak Golkar</strong> is a Vancouver-based artist and educator whos
 e art practice is centered on seemingly contradictory forms\, shapes and ma
 terial. Engaging syncretic strategies\, Golkar juxtaposes several disparate
  traditions\, asserting an underlying common ground\, allowing for an inclu
 sive approach to multi-layered reading. These strategies are implemented by
  exploring the potential of how ideas and forms transform between diverse c
 ontexts and systems and how new forms — and by extension\, new meanings — e
 merge from re-contextualization. The results of his research and associated
  practice are being actively exhibited in local\, national and internationa
 l venues.</p><p><strong>Gareth James</strong> is an internationally exhibit
 ed artist\, previously based in London and New York and now lives and pract
 ices in Vancouver where he is a Professor of Visual Art at the University o
 f British Columbia. James's work is constituted through his abiding interes
 t in histories of iconoclasm in which the social divisions and inequities t
 hat mark and delimit artistic practice are registered most emphatically. In
  James' practice as an artist and as a writer\, conventional aesthetic disc
 ourse is lost and rediscovered in neighboring fields such as topology or ps
 ychoanalysis. His writing has been published in journals such as Artforum\,
  Texte zur Kunst\, Afterall\, and Made in USA. James has lectured extensive
 ly at universities and museums\, and held positions at the Whitney Museum o
 f American Art's Independent Study Program\, The Cooper Union for the Advan
 cement of Science and Art\, Columbia University and Bard College.</p>

 l Road\, UBC</p><p>Familiar criticisms are easy to level against today’s cu
 lture of overproduction: low quality goods manufactured in unacceptable wor
 king conditions have driven down quality in favour of volume. Far harder to
  come by are clear solutions. Consumer apathy\, the disparities of global e
 conomics and rapidly disappearing knowledge pose formidable barriers to cha
 nge. But there are examples of designers and artists succeeding in their re
 jection of our present models of production. This lecture considers practit
 ioners such as Liza Lou\, Studio Formafantasma\, Meekyoung Shin\, Theaster 
 Gates and Hechizoo Studio – who each critique current models of production 
 and investigate inspiring alternatives. Time\, as the Swedish artist Emelie
  Röndahl explains\, is often their greatest investment capital.</p><p>Semin
 ar discussion will focus on Liza Lou’s <em>Durban Diaries</em>\, an autobio
 graphical text in which the American artist records her experience setting 
 up a studio in South Africa which aspires to function as a cooperative.</p>

 erage of the world’s ‘saddest’ polar bear\; “Pizza paces past murals of ice
 bergs in his glass enclosure … shakes his shaggy head under artificial ligh
 ts [and] crouches by an air vent to sniff the outside world.” Despite publi
 c outcry\, Grandview Mall in Guangzhou\, China holds in captivity the afore
 mentioned polar bear in an enclosed space that measures approximately 40 sq
 uare meters\, in an addition to ‘Asia’s largest aquarium’ which contains si
 x beluga whales in a pool smaller than that of the average Olympic swimmer.
  Subsequently the mall announces plans to an additional “Adorable Pet Zoo” 
 section of nationally protected species such as white tigers and pandas.</p
 ><p>Here\, the logic of shopping as an experience\, pioneered in North Amer

 bsurd conclusion. The existence of Grandview then is symptomatic of the lar

 oes hand in hand with capitalism.</p><p>What you looking at?! addresses bot
 h the specifics of Grandview mall as well as the broader framework of anima
 l – human relations\; the history of animals\, not as autonomous beings but
  its depictions\, objects and representations that constitutes how we inter
 act with them. In these instances such as a zoo\, or a zoo in a mall is the
  manifestation of an imbalance of power\, one that renders palpable our exp
 loitation of the other.</p><p>What you looking at?! features works from the
  many Guangzhou artists\, first witnesses to the mall including He Lixiao\,
  Cai Yimei\, Li bo\, Zeng Jinghao\, Fu pengfei\, Xiao Shanshan\, Group 3234
 \, Guo Kaiqi\, Mr Hippo\, Huang Shan+Huang He\, Ke Kanfa\, Li Hanzhou\, Li 
 Xiaoqian\, Liang Peiru\, Wang Xian\, Wu Jiawen\, Xiaohei\, Yi Ying\, Zhou Q

 conceptions of other species including Woojae Kim\, Amy Thompson\, Wei Chen

 ed documents from Grandview mall regarding their animals in captivity as we
 ll as animal research experts and organizations that shed light on illegal 
 animal trading networks that spans across nations.</p><p>Curated by Steven

 f Bree in <em>X Characters / Re(HERS)al</em>\, 2004</p></blockquote><p> </p
 ><p>The subject of rehearsal as one of the key motives of the productions b
 elonging to the project series <em>X Characters</em> (2001–2013) will be at
  the centre of this talk. Films and installations such as <em>X Characters 
 / Re(HERS)al </em>(2004)\, <em> X Love Scenes </em>(2007)<em>\, My_Never_En
 ding_Burial_Plot </em>(2010) and <em>Cold Rehearsal </em>(2013\, in collabo
 ration with Christine Lang) render always new constellations of rehearsals\
 , castings and similar self-reflective filmic and narrative devices\, there
 fore illuminating the function of “rehearsal” as a contemporary methodology
  and critical tool\, a “practice between the fields of fine arts\, film\, t
 heatre\, theory\, and politics\,” as the title of the recently released pub
 lication PUTTING REHEARSALS TO THE TEST (together with Sabeth Buchmann and 
 Ilse Lafer) suggests.* In an attempt to encompass the wide range of the not
 ion of rehearsal\, the talk will link my artistic practice to theoretical e
 xplorations of this topic.</p><p>*<em>PUTTING REHEARSALS TO THE TEST. Pract

 n <em>Under Super Vision</em> addresses surveillance as an increasingly nor
 malized strategy of institutional power and as an artistic methodology with
  the potential to subvert\, re-appropriate and manipulate the politics of b
 eing watched. The exhibition invites viewers to reconsider the banal survei
 llance rhetoric of hyper-visibility\, to focus on what and who have been re
 ndered hyper-visible under invisible structures. Which subjects are most st
 renuously scrutinized under state-controlled surveillance\, and to what deg
 ree are such marginalized communities able to respond\, resist and reclaim 
 their stolen image? The participating artists in this exhibition draw on me
 thods of imposed surveillance and medicalized control of bodies\, while que
 stioning the future of counter-surveillance methods\, even suggesting the r
 eturn to analogue methods of communication and technology avoidance. A tens
 ion between the viewer and the surveilling entities emerges\, a paranoia ev
 en\, as we are at once aware that we are observed and yet by whom remains e
 lusive\, even illegible. Negotiating these structures of observation and pa
 nopticonic watching call for further counter-surveillance\, masking and ide
 ntity protection. How do we fight the new normal of everyday surveillance p
 olitics?</p><p> </p><p><em>We thank our donors for their generous contribut

 veillance within art and art history.</p><p>While security at the physical 
 borders between countries is made ever more stringent\, the comparably perm
 eable nature of the Internet provides opportunities for collecting and shar
 ing information freely across state-imposed borders. Whether it is the use 
 of drones in overseas war zones\, the arguably more neutral situations of s
 elf-surveillance or the subsequent harvesting of personal data via social m
 edia\, issues of surveillance and its repercussions are omnipresent. Howeve
 r\, a passive acceptance of the insertion of surveillance structures into t

 r been more pertinent to actively challenge these invasive structures.</p><

 ical works by international artists Theresa Hak Kyung Cha\, Eleanor King\, 
 Nadia Myre and Erdem Taşdelen will be shown for the first time in Vancouver
  in “It Is Almost That\,” opening May 6. Curated by Ines Min\, the exhibiti
 on brings together artists from the east and west coasts of North America t
 o investigate the political potential of translation.</p><p>The show will f
 eature four bodies of work by the four artists. Cha’s <em>Re Dis Appearing 
 </em>(1977) is a short video that juxtaposes poetic images of a bowl of tea
 \, a beach and water with stream-of-consciousness translations of English a
 nd French phrases. King’s <em>Wormholes </em>(2016) are vibrant drawings cr
 eated by tracing the outline of a CD repeatedly in a spectrum of colored pe
 ncils. Myre’s <em>Orison </em>(2014) are a series of large-scale black-and-
 white digital prints that expose the reverse side of an older work titled <
 em>Indian Act </em>(2002). Taşdelen’s <em>The Elements of Discontent </em>(
 2015) are striking compositions of graphic images sourced from psychology t
 extbooks.</p><p>Each artist demonstrates a subversive use of translation\, 
 incorporating an act of performance in the production of the work. The exhi
 bition seeks to visualize these hidden processes\, engaging in translation 
 as a practice that shifts\, destabilizes and negotiates agency. A moment of
  radical possibility is discovered in the works\, which is re-deployed anew
  with every audience encounter.</p><p><strong>Theresa Hak Kyung Cha</strong
 > was born in Busan\, South Korea. Her work has been shown at the Berkeley 
 Art Museum\, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Institute of Contem
 porary Art. <strong>Eleanor King</strong> is a Nova Scotian artist based in
  New York City. She has held solo exhibitions at A.I.R. Gallery (New York)\
 , the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia and Diaz Contemporary (Toronto). <strong>N
 adia Myre</strong> is a visual artist from Quebec and an Algonquin member o
 f the Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg First Nation. She recently exhibited in solo
  shows at OBORO and the National Museum of American Indian (New York)\, and
  participated in the 2014 Shanghai Biennale. <strong>Erdem Taşdelen</strong

 allery this year\, and has exhibited in group shows at the MAK (Vienna)\, t
 he Sabanci Museum (Istanbul) and the Museum für Neue Kunst (Freiburg).</p><

 on by Anton Lee\, current PhD candidate in Art History at UBC.</h5><p>Begin
 ning in the late 1970s artists such as Ian Wallace\, Jeff Wall\, Christos D
 ikeakos and Rodney Graham developed intellectually rigorous approaches to p
 hotography. Breaking with the romantic landscape tradition that dominated a
 rt making and collecting in Vancouver well into the 1970s\, they developed 
 practices that both articulated an affinity with the avant-garde projects o
 f early modernism and uniquely acknowledged the specific place and historic
 al moment in which they were working.</p><p>Comprised primarily of work fro
 m the Gallery’s collection\, the exhibition will include photographs and vi
 deo work made over the past twenty-five years that build upon this conceptu
 al framework while picturing the built environment and the vast “natural” l
 andscape that makes up much of this province. Artists included in the exhib
 ition include Roy Arden\, Karin Bubas\, Stan Douglas\, Rodney Graham\, Mari

 e of Marcia Crosby. Focusing on practices of photography as simultaneously 
 art and document\, the exhibition is ordered around several themes: proposi
 tions for the use of public space\, whether through buildings\, artworks or
  social activities\; the surveillance of the public and performances for th
 e camera\; and the way that photographic records create potential histories
  for Vancouver.</p><p>The photograph – as an encounter between the photogra
 pher and the photographed – offers a way to re-read the past as unfinished\
 , in flux and not yet normative\, and to imagine a future that might produc
 e a different set of relations between social subjects.</p><p>At the same t
 ime\, the exhibition launches a series of investigations of the public real
 m of the UBC campus as new buildings and re-formed landscapes shift the mea
 nings of works in the Outdoor Art Collection. A revised self-guided tour bo
 oklet of UBC's Outdoor Art Collection will be available and video responses
  to several works in the collection by local artists and writers will be la
 unched on the Gallery's website. A publication will accompany the exhibitio

 ><p>Old Powerhouse is an experimental artwork that centers upon two archite
 ctural forms: the pyramids of Ancient Egypt\, and an electrical powerhouse 
 located on the University of British Columbia campus. In the artwork they a
 re both encountered as monumental projections of history\, and used to ques

 civilization. Rather than traditional narrative form\, the work proposes an
  alternative historical model\; an abstract dialogue describing massive ene

 an animation which uses the chaotic logic of the internet\, and steam\, the
  work brings a dynamic questioning to the processes within the gallery — ar

 <a href="https://ahva2016.sites.olt.ubc.ca/persons/aileen-bahmanipour/">Ail
 een Bahmanipour</a>.</h5><h4>Opening: September 7\, 7:00 - 10:00 PM</h4><h4
 >Artist Talk: Saturday\, September 9\, 2:00 PM</h4><p>Technical Problem is 
 an exhibition of mixed media drawings by Vancouver-based\, Iranian-born art
 ist Aileen Bahmanipour that explores cyclical political power and cultural 
 identity.</p><p>Bahmanipour’s work draws from Iran’s mythic history such as
  the story of King Zahak contained in the national epic poem Shahnameh writ
 ten by the Persian poet Ferdowsi between c. 977 and 1010 CE. Zahak was curs
 ed by the kiss of the devil with two snakes that grew out of his shoulders.
  According to the legend\, he began beheading the youth of Iran to feed the
 ir brains to his snakes. Fearful of being bitten by the snakes\, Zahak sacr
 ificed the future intellectual life of an entire nation.</p><p>The works in
  the exhibition reference Persian miniature painting\, creating an allegori
 cal language that shifts between the political reality of Bahmanipour’s hom
 e country\, narrative construction\, and personal symbolism. She elicits th
 e contradictions between Iran’s mythic past and relationship to modernity a
 s a utopic ideal in contrast with the state’s ongoing repressive control of
  its people. Medical illustrations and cross sections of limbs combined wit
 h animal and abstract forms mimic the border between the interior and exter
 ior\, and dissect the past as a reflection of the present. Bahmanipour’s wo
 rk is both fantastical and meticulous\, expressing a process of transformat
 ion unfolding and in tension.</p><p>The exhibition is accompanied by a publ
 ication with texts by AHVA professors Jaleh Mansoor and Marina Roy.</p><p>M
 ore about the gallery can be found at the <a href="http://grunt.ca">grunt g
 allery website</a>\, and on their <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/
 1618059508214885/">Facebook event</a> page for the exhibition opening.</p><
 h4>Artist Bio</h4><p>Aileen Bahmanipour received her BFA in Painting at the
  Tehran University of Art and is currently completing an MFA at the Univers
 ity of British Columbia. Bahmanipour’s interdisciplinary practice spans fro
 m installation to painting and video based works\, examining hybrid dialogu
 es between Western and Eastern perspectives in search of deconstructing cul
 tural truisms. Bahmanipour has exhibited her work in Canada with the Banff 
 Centre for the Arts\, Gallery 1515\, Hatch Art Gallery\, and Two Rivers Gal
 lery. Her work was included in the 12th Belgrade International Biennial of 
 Illustration in Serbia (2013)\, and the 4th Painting Biennial of Damonfar\,
  Iran (2012). She is a recipient of the Social Sciences and Humanities Rese
 arch Council Scholarship\, 2017.</p><p> </p><p><em>Image: Aileen Bahmanipou

 /></p><p>Diviners can mean a person who practices divination\, channels ene
 rgies\, and predicts events in future\; but it can also point to persons wh
 o are able to divine for water or minerals underground\, or discover things
  by intuition. They connect with these elements in order to convey affects\
 , intuitions\, repressed histories and desires\, and new concepts. Tapping 
 into the mineral intelligence of paint can be understood to resist the prim
 acy of ratiocentrism and language in our culture. In this respect\, the pai
 ntings in this exhibition demonstrate the turn toward materiality in thinki
 ng about painting and how\, through the medium of the painter\, one can com
 e to think about the animistic qualities permeating the material world\, wh
 ether that be from a geological perspective\, biological\, the microscopic\
 , the virtual\, existential or the minutia of commodity detritus. Each arti
 st’s work is an evidentiary example of a close examination of the ‘things’ 
 that make up the world.</p><p>Artist talks:</p><p>Athena Papadopoulos was b

 Keynote Lecture</strong><br /><strong>Isabelle Graw: The Value of Painting<
 /strong><br /><strong>When:</strong> Thursday\, September 28\, 7:00 p.m.<br
  /><strong>Where:</strong> Reliance Theatre\, Emily Carr University of Art 
 + Design</p><p>Painting is usually associated with various aesthetic\, emot
 ional\, symbolic and economic values. In this talk\, “Painting” refers to a
 ll those (often non-painterly) artistic practices that employ the picture o
 n canvas in manifold ways. Graw will examine the commodity value of paintin
 g\, considering paintings as unique material objects that nourish a fantasy
  that their value is substantial and contained within them—valuable because
  of their specific materiality\, and because of the sphere of reception pai
 nting exists within.</p><p>Graw will argue that despite their materiality\,
  paintings can’t be reduced to their economic dimension\; although the luxu
 ry industry in particular has tried to learn from painting in recent years\
 , painting’s intellectual prestige has been growing since the early modern 
 times\, adding to their status as ideal commodities.</p><p><strong>Isabelle
  Graw</strong> is a professor of art theory and art history at the Staatlic
 he Hochschule für bildende Künste (Städelschule) Frankfurt am Main\, where 
 she co-founded the Institute of Art Criticism. She is an art critic and co-
 founder of Texte zur Kunst in Berlin. She has edited and contributed to man
 y important books on the medium of painting\, most notably <em>Painting Bey
 ond Itself: The Medium in the Post-Medium Condition</em> (Sternberg Press\,
  2016) and <em>Thinking through Painting. Reflexivity and Agency beyond the
  Canvas</em> (Sternberg Press\, 2012). Her forthcoming book <em>The Love of
  Painting: Genealogy of a Success Medium</em> aims to establish where paint
 ing can be seen today and to reconstruct the historical origins of its curr
 ent popularity.</p><p>Isabelle Graw is a guest of the Goethe Institute. Her
  talk is made possible with support from the Audain Endowment for Curatoria
 l Studies through the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at 
 the University of British Columbia.</p>

 imon Fraser University\, Djavad Mowafaghian World Arts Centre\, 149 W. Hast
 ings Street\, Vancouver</p><p>On Friday\, September 29\, a day-long symposi
 um with four moderated panel sessions comprised of Canadian and internation
 al artists and scholars will be held at the World Arts Centre\, Simon Frase
 r University. Each of the panels will focus on a theme pertinent to issues 
 in contemporary painting. The discussions will cover a range of topics\, su
 ch as questions of aesthetics and the agency of materials\; the economic co
 nditions of painting (and its history)\; the role of the artist’s studio as
  a site of intellectual and material production\; and the ways in which the
  practice of painting resists easy translation into words.</p><p><strong>Pa
 nel 1 – 9:30 am - Diviners\, Materialists\, and Creatives</strong><br />Sea
 n Alward\, Derek Dunlop\, and Athena Papadopoulos in conversation with Caro
 lyn Stockbridge</p><p>This panel will focus on the painter\, the painting\,
  and paint as agents\, with a particular emphasis on materials and process 
 being the foundation for ideas and affective qualities within an artwork. T
 he geological foundations of paint\, how paint can embody political histori
 es\, how paint becomes transmogrified through incorporation of the commodit
 y fetish—these approaches seek to resist the market-driven relations that p
 ermeate art. “Diviners” relates to the process of channeling energies. It r
 efers to people who can divine for water or minerals\, and discover things 
 by intuition. Tapping into the mineral intelligence of paint can also be un
 derstood to resist the primacy of ratiocentrism and language in our culture
 . “Creative” is used ironically\, to deal with the tendency in corporate cu
 lture to hold up creative people as something to tap into monetarily\, to b
 rand their processes and production\, based on their ability to distribute 
 cultural cachet.</p><p><strong>Panel 2 – 11:20 am - Making a Difference: Th
 e Effective Capacity of Painting</strong><br />Christine Major\, Francine S
 avard and Charlene Vickers. Nicole Ondre moderator/respondent.</p><p>Consid
 ers the question of painting as a matter of\, not just its materiality\, bu
 t also of how it exceeds its thingness to create significance within the co
 ntexts it is placed. The artist cannot be “merely” a painter\, but is part 
 of an interrelated chain of efficaciousness. What considerations confront t
 he painter beyond the demands of the surface?</p><p><strong>Panel 3 – 2:00 
 pm - In the Studio: Painting as Thinking\; Painting as Conversation</strong
 ><br />Jessica Groome\, Sandra Meigs and Jinny Yu in conversation with Alis
 on Shields</p><p>In this conversation\, painters think out loud about their
  creative processes and the relationship between thinking and making throug
 h studio work. By discussing the process of making in the studio the presen
 ters will reflect on what the now commonly used phrase “thinking through ma
 king” means for them. In talking about the process of painting\, the artist
 s reflect on their approaches to materials\, shifts in practice over time a
 nd painting as a means of engaging with personal\, social and political ide
 as.</p><p><strong>Panel 4 – 3:40 pm - Like Hands Stuck in a Mattress: The D
 ifficulty of Talking Painting</strong><br />Marvin Luvuala Antonio\, Mark I
 gloliorte\, Adrianne Rubenstein and M.E. Sparks in conversation with Elizab
 eth Mcintosh and Ben Reeves</p><p>Asks the questions: How to talk about pai
 nting? How not to talk about painting? And given that painting is the most 
 important thing that painters do\, (why) should painters talk about paintin
 g anyway?</p><p>For more information\, please visit: <a href="https://crimp

 a Claxton claims the term <em>Sioux</em> for Lakota\, Dakota\, and Nakota p
 eoples as she dedicates herself to a careful analysis of contemporary Sioux
  relationships to the land. She does this by projecting interconnected stor
 ies onto four circular canvas screens. Viewers are invited into the circle 
 to consider the many dialogues presented from hours of digital video footag
 e and still photographs collected from a series of workshops she and Cowboy
  Smithx held with Sioux youth from Standing Buffalo and White Cap First Nat

 itioners\, and elders\, Claxton interrogates popular culture’s tropes and r
 omantic notions of landscape with the assemblage of diverse images and expe

  thoughtfully consider beauty in relation to intergenerational knowledge an

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>At the Italian Cultural Centre on Tuesday 
 October 17<sup>th </sup> at 7pm Dr. Vittorio Urbani Director of Italian non
  for profit organization Nuova Icona in conversation with grunt gallery Dir
 ector Glenn Alteen will discuss the work of two artists present in Venice t
 his Summer: Flavio Favelli with an independently funded installation\, and 
 Giorgio Andreotta Calò\, part of the Italian Pavilion in the current 57th V
 enice Biennale.  (The Italian Pavilion exhibition <em>Il Mondo Magico</em> 
 was curated by Cecilia Alemanni and features work by three artists Giorgio 
 Andreotta Calò\, Roberto Cuoghi\, and Adelita Husni-Bey).</p><p>“The brainc
 hild of pavilion curator Cecilia Alemanni\, the title is a direct reference
  to the book of the same name by Ernesto de Martino\, published by Einaudi 
 in 1948. And just as his Il mondo magico proposes a return to the imaginary
  and the fantastic as a means for experiencing the richness and multiplicit
 y of the world\, the artists chosen by the curator—Giorgio Andreotta Calò\,
  Roberto Cuoghi\, and Adelita Husni-Bey—pursue their adventures in the sphe
 re of magic and imagination\, each producing profoundly distinct creative r
 esults\, in terms of both content and form.” <em>From the website of the 57
 <sup>th</sup> Venice Biennale</em></p><p>Urbani will use the two exhibition
  and his own experience of curator and manager in the Biennials of Venice a
 nd Istanbul\, to talk about the value of larger exhibitions in relationship
  to smaller international collaborations within the context of globalism an
 d the local. The focus would be on "strategies for survival" among artists:
  the Biennials and what is left out of it ...</p><p>Vittorio Urbani\, an in
 dependent curator and manager of contemporary art projects based in Venice\
 , Italy\, has been organizing contemporary exhibitions and curating art boo
 ks and catalogues since 1993 as director of the non-profit organization Nuo
 va Icona – associazione culturale per le arti.</p><p>Nuova Icona is dedicat
 ed to the realization of projects by contemporary visual artists. With an e
 xperimental attitude in contemporary art\, Nuova Icona views itself as the 
 organizing element\, the active layer between the public and the artist\, a
  workshop where new projects can be realized. Under Urbani’s artistic direc
 tion\, Nuova Icona has held about 200 shows in Italy and abroad and publish
 ed more than 100 catalogues. Since 1995 Nuova Icona has organized for 5 edi
 tions the national official participations of Ireland in the Venice Art Bie
 nnale. It has also collaborated as manager to the national official partici
 pations of Wales (2001\, 2003\, 2007\, 2009)\, Turkey (2001\, 2003 and 2005
 )\, Scotland (2003)\, USA (2003)\, India (collateral exhibition in 2005)\,

 wing awareness and action of issues regarding ownership\, practice and prot
 ocols in working with Indigenous stories and storytellers\, and a call for 
 film and media productions involving Indigenous peoples to be created by In
 digenous people. Is Indigenous storytelling sovereignty absolute\, and if n
 ot\, how can impactful and practical rebalancing take place? Is this a prac
 tical or possible reality for future media production?</p><p>In a roundtabl
 e discussion that will be included in a forthcoming book by Dana Claxton an
 d Ezra Winton called "Insiders/Outsiders\," Indigenous artists take time to
  reflect on the impact of current practices within Canada’s cultural media 
 industries\, leading to ways in which Indigenous and non-Indigenous allies 
 are responding to historical inequities for authentic and collaborative con
 tent creation with Indigenous peoples in Canada.</p><p> </p>

 come out to the official launch of a major publication that includes AHVA P
 rofessor Gu Xiong and AHVA alumni Colin Miner and Raymond Boisjoly\, <em>Th
 e Source: Rethinking Water Through Contemporary Art.</em></p><p>Contemporar
 y art can raise awareness of pertinent issues. Although access to fresh wat
 er is an essential human right\, the resource has become a valuable global 
 commodity. Our era\, marked by rapid climate change\, destructive hydro-cli
 mactic weather events\, loss of polar ice and rising global sea levels\, is
  witness to shifting shorelines\, borders\, migration patterns and lines of
  economic and cultural exchange. In the book called <em>The Source: Rethink
 ing Water Through Contemporary Art</em>\, writers and artists consider chan
 ging concepts of water and associated cultural\, political and aesthetic im
 plications.</p><p>The artists in the project are: Nadine Bariteau\, <strong
 >Raymond Boisjoly</strong>\, Elizabeth Chitty\, Soheila Esfahani\, Gautam G
 aroo\, Patrick Mahon\, <strong>Colin Miner</strong>\, Lucy & Jorge Orta\, a
 nd <strong>Gu Xiong</strong>. Water\, of course\, defines the boundaries be
 tween nations and peoples\, but in the greater scheme of things\, erases di
 fferences. By bringing together Canadian artists representing Indigenous an
 d settling cultures\, both French- and English-speaking\, alongside interna
 tional artists with roots in countries around the globe\, <em>The Source</e
 m> contemplates water from a nationless\, borderless perspective.</p><p>Thi
 s substantial publication was co-published by Rodman Hall Art Centre/Brock 
 University\, St. Catharines\, and Art Lab\, Western University\, London. Th
 e book features texts by curator Stuart Reid\, Patrick Mahon and renown wat
 er specialist Robert Sandford. The book also includes conversations between
  participating artists around several topics related to the theme of water.
  The book was designed by Rob Gray of Designworks Studios in Toronto\, and 
 beautifully documents the major exhibition project that was mounted in St. 
 Catharines during summer 2014.</p><p><em>The Source</em>\, in part\, reunit
 ed the participants from <em>Immersion Emergencies and Possible Worlds</em>
 \, an artist research group that investigated water as culture and resource
  during two intensive residencies beginning in Niagara in May 2012\, conclu
 ding at a two-week residency at the Banff Centre for the Arts in May 2013. 
 It was the goal of the <em>Immersion Emergencies</em> project to bring toge
 ther Canadian and international artists and researchers from multiple backg
 rounds to highlight a multitude of the linked concerns of those individuals
  and their work addressing this element. <em>Immersion Emergencies</em> set
  out to juxtapose competing perspectives and to encourage opposing opinions
  and values surrounding water. From Niagara Falls on the Great Lakes to the
  Columbia Icefield in the Canadian Rockies\, the project explored the power
  of water as an energy source and economic commodity\, shaping the physical
  world\, defining boundaries\; but also as a sublime spiritual entity that 
 can inspire and humble.</p><p>The curator and artists are grateful for the 
 support of Open Studio in the launch of this publication. Open Studio is a 
 charitable\, non-profit\, artist run centre dedicated to the production\, p
 reservation and promotion of contemporary original fine art prints.</p><p><

 a href="mailto:ahva.vrc@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca</a>.</p><p>Through this per
 formative lecture\, Paul O’Neill reflects upon his curatorial practice\, co
 llective exhibition-making\, and the public as a constructed readymade. Tak
 ing his recent multi-year exhibition project <em>We are the Center</em> for
  Curatorial Studies\, Hessel Museum (2016–18) as its starting point\, this 
 lecture reflects upon curatorial studies and extends a conception of the cu
 ratorial to account for multiple sites of contact\, assemblages and gatheri
 ng of diverse bodies and subjects as well as their discursive connections. 
 In doing so\, it opens up a concept of the formation of the “exhibition” it
 self as a potential mode of research action in its own process of becoming.
 </p><p>O’Neill explores how different points of contact are made possible w
 hen exhibiting becomes a form of escape for the artwork as much as for the 
 viewer. Here\, O’Neill identifies escape as a key concept for the curatoria
 l\, which defines itself as an act of release—from something\, somewhere\, 
 someone—accompanied by the wish to be transformed. Escape implicates langua
 ge itself as being complicit with our need to be able to\, at least\, imagi
 ne ourselves elsewhere. How can a language of exhibitions\, therefore\, ena
 ble us to think attentively about escape as a curatorial form?</p><p>Dr. Pa
 ul O’Neill is an Irish curator\, artist\, writer\, and educator. He is Arti
 stic Director of Checkpoint Helsinki. From 2013 until July 2017 he was Dire
 ctor of the Graduate Program at the Center for Curatorial Studies (CCS)\, B
 ard College. O’Neill is widely regarded as one of the foremost research-ori
 ented curators and a leading scholar of curatorial practice\, public art\, 
 and exhibition histories. O’Neill has held numerous curatorial and research
  positions over the past twenty years and he has taught on many curatorial 
 and visual arts programs in Europe and the UK. O’Neill is one of the most w
 idely published authors in the field\, most notably with <em>The Culture of
  Curating\, the Curating of Culture(s)</em>\, published by MIT Press in 201

 Building<br />6333 Memorial Road\, UBC</p><p>Please contact the AHVA Visual
  Resources Centre for access to the event recording: <a href="mailto:ahva.v
 rc@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca</a>.</p><p>Tameka Norris began her career in the
  Los Angeles hip-hop scene before migrating to the fine arts. She supplemen
 ted along the way with a broad array of odd jobs\, from call-centre custome
 r service representative to sex worker. Her artwork is informed by her expe
 rience of how exploitation is built into these systems\, particularly for w
 omen of colour and queer communities. She often combines intensely personal
  experience with overtly performative personas to critique the ways that id
 entities are appropriated and exploited by high and low culture alike.</p><
 p>With her communities and herself as subjects\, Norris uses painting\, vid
 eo\, photography\, music\, performance\, installation\, project-based art\,
  context art\, confession\, the Internet\, and institutional critique to ex
 plore the internal drives and external influences that shape identity. Her 
 practice critiques the invisibility of blackness in cultural forms built up
 on the appropriation of popular and sacred black expressions and idioms.</p
 ><p>Tameka Norris was born in Guam and received her undergraduate degree at
  the University of California\, Los Angeles\, before graduating with an MFA
  from Yale University School of Art in 2012. Norris has participated in num
 erous exhibitions and festivals\, including at Nasher Museum of Art at Duke
  University\, Durham\; Yerba Buena Museum\, San Francisco\; Prospect.3 Bien
 nial\, New Orleans\; the Walker Museum\, Minneapolis\; Contemporary Arts Mu
 seum Houston\, Houston\; and the Studio Museum\, Harlem\; Rotterdam Film Fe
 stival\, Rotterdam\; Mission Creek Festival\, Iowa City\; among many others
 . Norris has participated in residencies at the Skowhegan School of Paintin
 g and Sculpture\, the Fountainhead Residency\, and the MacDowell Colony. Sh
 e is the 2017 recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts grant and is a
 n assistant professor at University of Iowa.</p><p>Norris’s visit is presen
 ted by the Rennie Collection Distinguished Visiting Artist Program.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>Tracing Erasure considers how the intertwi
 ned processes of destruction and production affect perceptions of the past 
 and the present\, intervening in the political\, the social\, the personal\
 , and the historical. In bringing together the work of five graduate studen
 ts from Vancouver’s three graduate fine arts programs\, this exhibition pro
 udly responds to the University of British Columbia’s mandate to foster a l
 earning environment for enriching academic exchange to serve a wider commun
 ity. The included artists probe the intimate and dynamic processes of cultu
 ral mediation to ask how we give shape to our histories and how our histori
 es shape us.</p><p>The process of tracing erasure is always imprecise and u
 ncertain\, never complete and unable to fulfil the promise of return. Yet\,
  as the artists showcased in this exhibition demonstrate\, through the comp
 lex layering of personal and cultural narratives\, assemblages of memory\, 
 and histories\, this process can be a transformative one\, activating knowl
 edge by addressing the recurrence of the past in the present. Though unique
  in their differing approaches\, the artists in Tracing Erasure address a c
 ommon thread of loss\, renewal\, and fundamental changing notions of home a
 nd identity. Their art proposes a self-reflexive negotiation of remembering
  and forgetting\, upon which they may build diverging notions of belonging.
 </p><p>Tracing Erasure re-examines linear conceptions of time and place. Vi
 sitors to the exhibition are asked to consider how these preconceived notio
 ns may belie the complexities in the interactions between history\, culture
 \, and identity\; as the included artworks layer temporalities\, spatialiti
 es\, and materialities\, the interaction with the viewer becomes one more l
 ayer in the intricacies of the art.</p><p> </p><p>Artists: Fadwa Bouziane\,

SUMMARY: Tracing Erasure: 41st Annual AHVA Graduate Symposium
DESCRIPTION: Keynote address by Dr. Esra Akcan\, Cornell University
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p> </p><p>Keynote address by Dr. Esra Akcan\
 , Cornell University</p><p>Please join the UBC Department of Art History\, 
 Visual Art and Theory (AHVA) for the 41st Annual UBC AHVA Graduate Symposiu
 m\, Tracing Erasure. The symposium invites the exploration of art and archi
 tecture as sites of intervention in personal\, social\, and cultural narrat
 ives and memories. This collaborative project seeks to examine sites of str
 uggle and potential transformation\, where art and architecture\, as loci o
 f memory\, challenge notions of historical stability and linearity. The dua
 lity of creation and destruction that accompanies cultural change may not b
 e new\, but a rapidly globalizing and shifting world brings renewed urgency
  to questions of how we as individuals and societies conceive\, and have co
 nceived\, of ourselves\, and our histories.</p><p>This symposium and its co
 ncurrent exhibition follow the university’s mandates to create a rich acade
 mic environment and to foster intellectual exchange among graduate students
  by providing a unique opportunity to engage in questions concerning cultur
 al mediations within visual culture and the histories of art and architectu

 5 to present) alongside the longer arc of his project to convert the writte
 n characters from ancient Chinese and Japanese poems into sound (1976 to pr
 esent). While these two bodies of work are intertwined\, they also are meth
 odologically at odds: the CD works are self-consciously medium-specific\, w
 hile the poem-based works follow the Fluxist tradition of Intermedia\, of w
 hich Tone was one of the earliest theorizers. This talk will untangle these
  competing impulses in Tone's practice\, exploring by way of Friedrich Kitt

 g ecology as open ended assemblages of materials and organisms\, artists Ma
 ggie Groat\, Joar Nango and Leya Tess consider the flows of materials in a 
 globalised economy while paying close attention to local contexts and their
  interactions.</span></p><p>Exposing the raw edges of capitalist production
 \, Joar Nango’s project Europ<span class="text_exposed_show">ean Everything
  reveals landscapes of accumulated waste products and the peripheral commun
 ities who scratch a living from them. A short film documents a journey thro
 ugh these strange environments while a collection of photographs and small 
 objects gathered along the way examines the resourceful bricolage and susta
 inable knowledges of the people who respond to these harsh circumstances.</
 span></p><p>Maggie Groat’s sculptural assemblages transform salvaged materi
 als from daily life into tools for connection with place and speculation fo
 r possible futures. Utilitarian artefacts\, such as a set of mirrors to ref
 lect light back to the moon\, index the artist’s poetic gestures that seek 
 to cultivate alternative ways-of-knowing while entering into relationships 
 with more-than-human entities.</p><p>Meticulous drawings by Leya Tess subve
 rt settler-colonial maps of the British Columbia coastline by repopulating 
 the terrain with the plant and animal assemblages that define this region. 
 Tess’s organic forms variously erase and highlight certain features of the 
 maps in correlation with her lived experiences of these areas and the local
  ecosystems.</p><p>Together these works use appropriation and salvage as th
 e means to strategically foreground acts of collection and arrangement\, re
 sponding to contemporary environmental problems with creativity and resilie
 nce. The theme of nomadic exploration runs through this exhibition as a sub
 text\, linking the meditative journey of European Everything to Tess’s maps
  and Groat’s visions of post-industrial futures. The figure of the resource
 ful bricoleur combines with that of the time-traveller\, seeking messages f
 rom the deep past to guide her through uncertain times to come.</p><p>Maggi
 e Groat is a visual artist who utilizes a range of media\, including works 
 on paper\, sculpture\, textiles\, site-specific interventions and publicati
 ons. Influenced by her Haudenosaunee and settler ancestry\, and her roles a
 s mother and environmental steward\, her research surrounds site-responsive
 ness with regards to shifting territories\, decolonial methodologies\, and 
 salvage practices. Groat earned an MFA degree from the University of Guelph
  in 2010. In 2014 she was the Audain Artist Scholar in Residence at Emily C
 arr University of Art and Design. Groat has exhibited extensively across Ca
 nada including at Mercer Union\, YYZ Artists’ Outlet\, Art Gallery of York 
 University (Toronto)\, Western Front\, (Vancouver)\, and Kitchener-Waterloo
  Art Gallery (Kitchener\, ON). She lives and works in St. Catharines\, ON.<
 /p><p>Joar Nango is a Norwegian-Sámi artist and architect based in Tromsø\,
  Norway. He holds a Master’s degree in Architecture from the Norwegian Univ
 ersity of Science and Technology. Located at the boundary between architect
 ure\, design and art\, Nango’s practice explores Indigenous identity throug
 h the oppositions and contradictions in contemporary architecture. In 2010 
 Nango co-founded the architectural collective FFB\, specializing in tempora
 ry structures and interventions in urban contexts. He has exhibited in Cana
 da at Western Front (Vancouver) and Gallery 44 (Toronto)\, as well as inter
 nationally\, including documenta 14 (Athens and Kassel\, 2017)\; 43SNA\, Me
 dellin (Colombia\, 2013)\; and the Norwegian Sculpture Biennale at Vigeland
 smuseet (Oslo\, Norway\, 2013).</p><p>Leya Tess has lived on various island
 s on the BC coast\, working as a kayak guide and illustrator. She holds a B
 FA from the University of Victoria and has exhibited at the fifty fifty art
 s collective (Victoria)\, the Ministry of Casual Living (Victoria)\, and th

  <strong>Aileen Bahmanipour\, Christopher Lacroix\, Cameron McLellan\, Cand

 />Aileen Bahmanipour\, <em>Image\, Disturbance\, Pattern</em>\, 2018</h6><p
  style="text-align: justify\;"><strong>Aileen Bahmanipour</strong> is an ar
 tist whose practice is centered on exploring the inter-subjectivities betwe
 en violence and identity to question their co-constitutive relationship. By
  interrogating the narrative capacity of the diagram\, as a rational practi
 ce in abstraction\, her work seeks to challenge the problem of perspective 
 in an attempt to reach an anti-perspectival point of view. Bahmanipour has 
 recently held solo exhibitions at Grunt Gallery (Vancouver) and the Hatch G
 allery (Vancouver).</p><h6><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-25769

  it's hard to tell where it's coming from (still)</em>\, 2017</h6><p style=
 "text-align: justify\;"><strong>Christopher Lacroix’s</strong> practice exp
 lores the relentless effort of queer existence\, to suggest that queerness 
 is not simply being born outside of a normative subject position\, but a co
 nscious decision to push against it. His oeuvre includes performance\, vide
 o\, photo and text-based works which embrace the potential of abject self-d
 eprecation as a means of self-preservation and resistance while engaging wi
 th notions of failure\, aspiration and otherness. Lacroix has exhibited wor
 k in a number of exhibitions across Canada\, as well as presenting several 
 performance pieces in Toronto.</p><h6><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-

  literally and figuratively – McLellan is interested in conceptualizations 
 of space and the social dynamics that underscore it\, including the way mat
 eriality mediates our relationship with it. Recent exhibitions of his work 
 include the Interurban Gallery (Vancouver) and Robert Lynds Gallery (Vancou

  practice that seeks to visualize and emphasize the social symptoms of cont

 life\, her interests involve an exploration of the many feminisms and their
  relationships to the question of craft. Her work has been exhibited in sol
 o exhibitions at the Place des Arts (Coquitlam) and the Ranger Station Art 
 Gallery (Harrison Hot Springs).</p><h6><img class="alignnone size-medium wp

 at the National College of Arts in Lahore\, Pakistan\, deploys an artistic 
 practice that takes this foundational experience to question notions of spa

  space\, as both an interrelational process of non-closure and continuous b
 ecoming as well as a site where multiplicity resonates\, in an effort to di
 scover a way for time and space to coalesce in her practice. Sikander has e
 xhibited work in numerous group exhibitions in Pakistan and internationally

 a Todd will feature installation art\, moving image and Coast Salish design
 . Initiated by New Zealand curator Paula Booker\, the exhibition is about t

 nto the same place two artists from across the great Pacific Ocean in Aotea
 roa New Zealand\, and two artists who grew up here on the edge of that grea
 t ocean\, with strong and long ties to this territory. All four artists hav
 e stories to tell about place.</p><p>The Or Gallery’s iconic street-side wi

 raditional weaving\, so the whole exhibition will be entered through a xʷmə

 <p>Installations by Shannon te Ao (Ngāti Tuwharetoa)\, and Bridget Reweti (
 Ngāti Ranginui\, Ngāi Te Rangi) unravel colonial histories and express guar
 dianship using performance and experimental moving image. The works of thes
 e artists from Aotearoa New Zealand will be seen through and alongside the 
 images and narratives of Musqueam artist Debra Sparrow and Vancouver-born M
 etis/Cree/German filmmaker Kamala Todd\, an urban geographer and filmmaker 
 who has been commissioned to make a new film from her ongoing work to indig
 enize urban eyes\; to uphold relationships to the unceded Indigenous territ
 ories that Vancouver has been built upon.</p><p>The exhibition curator cons
 iders that “social relations to place are activated through a variety of na
 rrative methods that evoke context and relationship\, among people within s
 pace\, human and greater than human beings and the environment\, and betwee
 n time and place.” This exhibition includes artworks that articulate these 
 ways of being in place. Booker believes that “as a curator of Anglo-Saxon h
 eritage\, from the South Pacific\, my own stories figure into erasure of In
 digenous narratives of place\, both at home and in my new home. This exhibi
 tion is an opportunity to bring to the fore territorial relationships and u
 phold sovereignty.”</p><p><strong>Public critique with Tara Hogue to be hel

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Lauren Marsden\, Elizabeth Milton\, and S
 ydney Southam</h4><hr /><h4>June 16 - August 4\, 2018<br />Reception Friday
  June 15\, 7:00 PM<br />Curated by Whitney Brennan</h4><hr /><p><em>Feather
 s\, Ether\, Sand\, Speech</em> presents three contemporary Vancouver artist
 s working at the intersection of performance and media art\, and exploring 
 sites of contested gender representation: the cinema\, the landscape\, and 
 the strip club. Lauren Marsden\, Elizabeth Milton and Sydney Southam experi
 ment with the presence and absence of the body to articulate their concerns
  surrounding labour\, materiality\, and documentation within performance ar
 t.</p><p><strong>Lauren Marsden</strong>’s work\, <em>Miss Department of En
 ergy Has Left The Building</em> (2009-2018)\, invokes a mythological 1950s 
 promotional pin-up character\, standing in the ambivalent space between a c
 ontroversial nuclear energy station\, and the serenity of the California be
 achfront. The work calls up the notion of "the evaporated performer"\; when
  no trace of the performer’s body remains at the site\, the leftover materi
 al must stand in as representative of the performance itself. With <em>Punc
 hing A Pillow Until The Sun Rises</em> (2017)\, <strong>Elizabeth Milton</s
 trong> staged a hysterical melodrama of a diva caught in a tragic-comic cyc
 le of perpetual destruction. Adapted from a twelve-hour performance\, this 
 split-screen recording emphasizes her interest in the relationship between 
 live performance\, documentation and mediated experience. Drawing on her ex
 periences as a professional pole dancer\, stripper and performance artist\,
 <strong> Sydney Southam</strong>’s <em>A Glorious Moment </em>is a new artw
 ork created for this exhibition. Translating aspects of feminized and sexua
 lized labour into a material object\, Southam’s work draws on the overlap o
 f bodily performance in stripping\, and the bodily labour performed in femi
 nized domestic work\, such as sewing and mending\; skills often acquired by
  strippers who make their own costumes.</p><p>The artists’ various uses or 
 refusal of documentation highlight the function of a photograph or video to
  capture a particular form of spectatorship. In challenging the voyeurship 
 that surrounds female performance art\, the artists present alternative per
 spectives that emphasize not the physical body\, but its absence. The physi
 cal presence of the artist is not wholly visible\; what we see are the pile
 s of sand\, the discarded blanket\, or the woman in the screen\, and what w
 e sense is the ether that seems to haunt the space.</p><p><em>This project 
 was made possible with support from the Killy Foundation and the Audain End
 owment for Curatorial Studies through the Department of Art History\, Visua
 l Art and Theory in collaboration with the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gall

 construction of historic record in relation to the business of archival sto
 rage\, preservation\, and dissemination within the public realm. In mining 
 the potential of the private and public archive\, these artists interrogate
  the visual and material nature of historical reference and activate immate

 the artist\, notwithstanding the more expansive field known today as global
  visual culture\, which includes material objects and practices not formerl

 singular creator and put her/him in potential conflict with the global econ

 nd placement of the pediment erected over the US Senate in 1863. Created by
  the US sculptor\, Thomas Crawford\, the sculpture represents the conflict 
 between whites and Indigenous people as both settled and eternal. It also t
 races the process by which First Nations people were racialized as "Indian.
 " Virtually ignored today by visitors\, tourists\, and senators to the Capi
 tol building\, Buick will trace the nuances of the sculpture's possible int
 erpretations from 1778\, when the first treaty between the US government an
 d Indigenous sovereign nations was made\, to 2016 and the uprisings by wate

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>The Inscribed Studio Photos as <em>I-Portr
 ait</em>: Photographing a New Self in Early Twentieth-Century China<br />Pr
 esented as part of the Joan Carlisle-Irving Lecture Series<br />This event 
 is free and open to the public. Please join us for a reception following th
 e talk.</p><p>Please contact the AHVA Visual Resources Centre for access to
  the event recording: <a href="mailto:ahva.vrc@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca</a>.
 </p><p>Portraiture and self-portraiture are two standard genres in visual a
 rt\, including photography. A self-portrait is a likeness whose subject is 
 the artist him/herself\; a portrait is a representation of a person made by
  someone else. This lecture investigates some photographs which disrupt thi
 s seemingly self-evident classification of images. These examples belong to
  a group of studio portraits that bear the sitters’ inscriptions. I suggest
  that when an inscription is imbued with a distinct “I” voice and expresses
  the sitter’s personal experience and aspiration\, it transforms the anonym
 ous portrait into an I-portraits. The main part of the talk discusses sever
 al images related to the “queue-cutting” movement in early twentieth-centur
 y China\, before and after the Republican Revolution in 1911 that ended the
  country’s dynastic history. The final section contemplates how photography
 ’s media specificity contributes to such transformation.</p><p>Wu Hung is t
 he Harrie A. Vanderstappen Distinguished Service Professor in Chinese Art H
 istory at the Departments of Art History and East Asian Languages and Civil
 izations at the University of Chicago. He has published widely on both trad
 itional and contemporary Chinese art. His interest in both has led him to e
 xperiment with different ways to integrate these conventionally separate ph
 ases into new kinds of art historical narratives\, as exemplified by his <e
 m>Monumentality in Early Chinese Art and Architecture </em>(1995)\, <em>The
  Double Screen: Medium and Representation of Chinese Pictorial Art</em> (19
 96)\, <em>Remaking Beijing: Tiananmen Square: the Creation of a Political S
 pace </em>(2005)\, <em>A Story of Ruins: Presence and Absence in Chinese Ar
 t and Visual Culture </em>(2012)\, and <em>Zooming In: Histories of Photogr
 aphy in China</em> (2016). Several of his ongoing projects follow this dire
 ction to explore the interrelationship between art medium\, pictorial image
 \, and architectural space\, the dialectical relationship between absence a
 nd presence in Chinese art and visual culture\, and the relationship betwee
 n art discourse and practice.</p><p>Wu Hung is also the director of the Cen
 ter for the Art of East Asia\, and consulting curator of the Smart Museum o
 f Art at the University of Chicago. He will be delivering the Andrew W. Mel
 lon Lectures at the National Art Gallery in 2019.</p>

 rtist talk as part of the Distinguished Visiting Artist Program<br />This e
 vent is free and open to the public. Please join us for a reception followi
 ng the talk.</p><p>Please contact the AHVA Visual Resources Centre for acce
 ss to the event recording: <a href="mailto:ahva.vrc@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca
 .</a></p><p>Artist Yoshiko Shimada is a proponent of feminist art in Japan.
  In this talk\, Shimada presents a selection of her artworks that reflect o
 n cultural memory and the role of women in the Asia-Pacific War\, such as <
 em>Past Imperfect</em> (1991–1997) that examines Japanese women’s roles dur
 ing the war\, <em>Made in Occupied Japan</em> (1998–2000) that looks at mil
 itary bases as sites for sex\, violence\, and power\; <em>Women in Camoufla
 ge</em> (2002) that documents the daily lives of female soldiers in the mil
 itary\; and<em> Becoming a Statue of a Japanese Comfort Woman</em> (2012–on
 going) that responds to historical erasure through performance. In explorin
 g legacies of war\, violence\, and occupation\, Shimada proposes a practice
  of feminism and art-making as a tool for self-examination\, and a means to
  complicate the victim versus oppressor divide.</p><p>Yoshiko Shimada (嶋田美子
 \, b. 1959\, Tokyo) lives and works in Chiba\, Japan. She graduated from Sc
 ripps College\, USA\, in 1982\, and received her PhD from Kingston Universi
 ty\, London\, in 2015. Her artwork explores themes of cultural memory and t
 he role of women in the Asia-Pacific War. Her works have been exhibited bot
 h nationally and internationally. In recent years\, Shimada has been resear
 ching post-1968 art and politics in Japan. She has curated exhibitions\, su
 ch as Anti-Academy (John Hansard Gallery\, 2013)\, Nakajima Yoshio Syndrome
  (Atsukobarouh\, 2015)\, and From Nirvana to Catastrophe (Ota Fine Arts\, 2
 017)\, for which she wrote and edited the catalogues. She lectures on Japan
 ese art and politics of the 1960s and 70s\, and art and feminisms in Japan 
 at The University of Tokyo.</p><p>The Distinguished Visiting Artist Program
  is made possible by the generous support of the Rennie Collection.</p>

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>François Boucher and the <em>L’Odalisque b
 rune</em>: Revelations concerning the unknown origins of a secret and liber
 tine work<br />A curatorial lecture by Guillaume Faroult<br />This event is
  free and open to the public. Please join us for a reception following the 
 talk.</p><p>Please contact the AHVA Visual Resources Centre for access to t
 he event recording: <a href="mailto:ahva.vrc@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca</a>.</
 p><p>The painter François Boucher (1703–1770) is known for an artistic care
 er that was arguably one of most brilliant of the European Enlightenment. C
 alled upon not only by the French court but also by many foreign government
 s\, Boucher’s artistic imagination provided many models and images that ins
 pired artists throughout Europe. In 1765\, he was named The First Painter o
 f the King and thereby became the Director of the French Academy of Paintin
 g and Sculpture. During this same year\, a highly suggestive engraving surf
 aced which allowed the French public to gain a glimpse of one of his most d
 aringly erotic works\, <em>L’Odalisque brune</em>. Indeed\, this work was p
 art of a secret corpus of paintings for which libertine collectors clamoure
 d throughout the Century. Painted in 1745 for a discrete connoisseur\, this
  work by Boucher characterises a century at once filled with curiosity for 
 all things related to freedom and liberty and possessing a voracious appeti
 te for moral licentiousness. The lecture will attempt to retrace the genesi
 s of this painting at the same time as it uncovers the many meanings and fu
 nctions belonging to a highly original work. Its combination of seduction a
 nd ambiguity underscores that remarkable taste for masks and oriental fanta
 sies that typifies the French Enlightenment.</p><p>Guillaume Faroult is sen
 ior curator of the Louvre Museum in charge of French paintings from the 18t
 h century as well as British and American art. Specialising in French and B
 ritish painting spanning the 18th century until the early 19th\, he has pub
 lished numerous books and articles on this period. His interests lie more s
 pecifically in the historical reception of art\, the practices of art colle
 ctors\, the relationship between art and literature and in studying the his
 tory of artistic institutions such as museums. Faroult has curated many exh
 ibitions\, including <em>La Caze Collection</em> (Paris\, Louvre and London
 \, Wallace Collection\, 2007–2008)\, <em>Turner and the Masters</em> (Londo
 n\, Tate Britain\; Paris\, Grand Palais\; Madrid\, Prado\, 2009–2010)\, <em
 >Antiquity Revived: Neoclassical Art in the Eighteenth Century</em> (Paris\
 , Louvre and Houston\, Museum of Fine Arts\, 2010–2011)\, <em>Fragonard amo
 ureux. Galant et libertin</em> (Paris\, Luxembourg Museum\, 2015–2016) and 
 <em>Hubert Robert</em> (Paris\, Louvre and Washington\, National Gallery of
  Art\, 2016). For 2020\, he is curating two exhibitions of British painting
  to be held in the Museum of Fine Art in Bordeaux\, France.</p><p>Presented

 es.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Artist Bio</strong></p><p>Grace Ndiritu (Kenya/UK
 ) studied Textile Art at Winchester School of Art\, UK\; De Ateliers\, Amst
 erdam. Ndiritu made the radical decision in 2012 only to spend time in the 
 city when necessary\, and to otherwise live in rural\, alternative and ofte
 n spiritual communities while expanding her research into nomadic lifestyle
 s and training in esoteric studies such as shamanism\, which she began over
  18 years ago. Her research into community life has so far resulted in the 
 founding of The Ark: Center for Interdisciplinary Experimentation.</p><p>In
  2012 Ndiritu began creating a new body of works under the title Healing th
 e Museum. It came out of a need to re-introduce non-rational methodologies 
 such as shamanism to re-activate the 'sacredness' of art spaces. Her most a
 mbitious shamanic performance to date\, A Meal for My Ancestors: Healing th
 e Museum\, included staff members of the UN\, NATO\, EU parliament\, activi
 sts\, and refugees at Thalielab\, Brussels (2018). In 2018\, Ndiritu launch
 ed COVERSLUTc\, a new ‘Pay What You Can’ fashion label focused on democracy
  and class struggle\, which involves working with refugees and migrants.</p

 HEALING (2020). A year-long international program of exhibitions\, performa
 nces\, and talks focusing on Grace Ndiritu's work leading up to the BLACK H
 EALING exhibition in June 2020. It engages questions such as afro-futurism\
 , activism\, spiritual practice\, black culture\, and neo-liberalism.</p><p

 by Claire Fontaine<br />This event is free and open to the public. Please j
 oin us for a reception following the talk.</p><p>Please contact the AHVA Vi
 sual Resources Centre for access to the event recording: <a href="mailto:ah
 va.vrc@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca</a>.</p><p>Claire Fontaine is a feminist col
 lective artist\, founded in 2004 in Paris and based in Palermo. After lifti
 ng her name from a popular brand of school notebooks\, Claire Fontaine decl
 ared herself a “readymade artist” and began to elaborate a version of neo-c
 onceptual art that often looks like other people’s work. Working in neon\, 
 video\, sculpture\, painting and text\, her practice can be described as an
  ongoing interrogation of the political impotence and the crisis of singula
 rity that seems to define contemporary art today. But if the artist herself
  is the subjective equivalent of a urinal or a Brillo box — as displaced\, 
 deprived of its use value\, and exchangeable as the products she makes — th
 ere is always the possibility of what she calls the “human strike.” Claire 
 Fontaine grows up among the ruins of the notion of authorship\, experimenti
 ng with collective protocols of production\, détournements\, and the produc
 tion of various devices for the sharing of intellectual and private propert
 y.</p><p>Claire Fontaine\, using the third person singular feminine\, is an
  artistic partnership between Fulvia Carnevale and James Thornhill. Claire 
 Fontaine has been exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo\, Paris\; Tai Kwun\, Hon
 g Kong\; Lisson Gallery\, London\; Kunsthalle Zurich\; 4th Moscow Biennale 
 of Contemporary Art\; the 12th Istanbul Biennial\; Manifesta 7\; and the 20
 04 Whitney Biennial.</p><p>This visit is made possible by the generous supp
 ort of the Audain Endowment for Curatorial Studies.</p><p> </p>

 es\, Genzken explored mixtures of parodic\, satirical\, and ironic modes of
  presentation as means of treating political and topical subject matter-suc
 h as imperialism and greed-without losing sight of the perceived impossibil
 ity of direct action\, hence allowing for the Beckett-like possibility of m
 iscommunication and comic failure. Genzken's approach to assemblage depends
  on practices of disjunction and repetition that allow for the extended pla
 y of irony. Her use of humor reflects a generational resistance to a "polit
 ics of realization” – referencing politics without making commitments\, and
  avoiding direct action in favor of a more distanced and parodic skepticism

 sory organ\, mediates between internal and external worlds\, identity and m
 emory. More recently\, her series “One Response” (2009) and “I guess it’s b
 etter that radiation doesn’t have a colour” (2011) have dealt with the body
  and the traces of historical memory.</p><p>Eight years ago\, Itō was diagn

  in production after production set in the same Shakespearian times in the 
 same old Shakespearian places.</p><p>All the world is a stage is a world is
  an exhibition. Theatrical scenery was mere suggestion in Elizabethan theat
 re. Typical late eighteenth and early nineteenth century theatre and opera 
 houses utilised painted stock scenic backdrops to set the stage for theatri
 cal action. Typically\, a single painter would produce a theatres collectio
 n of scenes. The same forest scene for one play would provide the forest sc
 ene for many other plays\; a drawing room the same for another and another.
  Downstage set decoration or props were minimal. The play was the thing.</p
 ><p>When Goethe served as Director of the Weimar Theatre\, he commissioned 
 scenic painter Friedrich Christian Beuther to produce a collection of scene
  paintings for the theatre. Upon witnessing the quality of the work\, Goeth
 e arranged a one-night event in 1816 for theatre patrons in which the only 
 work presented on stage was the sequence of scene paintings. The curtain op
 ened to a painting and closed to applause\, opened again to another painted
  scene\, then closed and so on throughout a performance in which a performe
 r never set foot on stage.</p><p>Theatre folds and unfolds in and over time
 . Exhibitions fold and unfold in and over space. <em>A Seat Next to the Cei
 ling</em> is an exhibition on a stage. It folds and unfolds in and over spa
 ce and time. It's exhibition time. The audience is seated. The lights dim. 
 The curtain opens onto a scenic tableau. The curtain closes to applause. It
  opens again onto another scene. Curtain closes. And again.</p><p><strong>F

 mont as she pursues a conceptual and empirical investigation on the notion 
 of self-awareness\, in its relation both to social awareness and to bodily 
 awareness. Her recent book\, <em>Mind the Body: An Exploration of Bodily Se
 lf-Awareness </em>(Oxford University Press\, 2018)\, provides the first com
 prehensive treatment of bodily awareness and the sense of bodily ownership\
 , combining philosophical analysis with experimental results from cognitive
  science\, to answer the question: <em>What makes us feel this particular b
 ody as our own?</em></p><p>In her talk\, Prof. de Vignemont will take as a 
 starting point the similarities and differences between hands and tools. Sh
 e will argue that even if we can perfectly control the tool\, and can even 
 feel sensations at its tip\, we still do not experience the tool as part of
  our own body. The crucial question is why\, is it because tools generally 
 do not look like body parts?What about prostheses? Or is it because one nev
 er feels pain on a tool? She will argue that our body feels as our own beca
 use it has a unique affective significance. In evolutionary terms\, we need
  to protect our body for survival. This is what is at the origin of this mi
 nimal form of self-awareness.</p><p> </p><p><img class="size-full wp-image-

 a game born out of the capacity for devalorization. Only he who is able to 
 devalorize can create new values\," we read in ‘Détourned Painting\,’ in th
 e context of an exhibition as aggressively ‘kitsch’ as can be: Twenty Paint
 ings Modified by Asger Jorn (1959). But what is the relation between the cr
 itique of political economy delivered by Jorn in the form of ‘Value and Eco
 nomy\,’ published contemporaneously\, and these paintings placed entirely u
 nder the sign of a vicious kick to the Greenbergian ass? This question will
  project us at the heart of the Jorn-Debord dispositif\, before and beyond 
 the scission between “artists” and “revolutionaries” to problematize the si
 tuationist moment — and Situationism itself — in relation to the present. T
 his talk will settle accounts with the ‘aesthetic delicatessen’ of the artw
 ork whereby Jorn appropriates not so much the ‘détournement of painting’ as
  ‘painting détourned’ by the action of its devalorization in a situationism
  that is not at all circumstantial.</p><p>Eric Alliez (b. 1957)\, philosoph
 er\, is a Professor at University of Paris 8 and at the Centre for Research
  in Modern European Philosophy\, Kingston University (London). He has been 
 visiting professor in many universities worldwide. He is author of <em>Capi

 uattari's Philosophy?</em>\, <em>The Brain-Eye: New Histories of Modern Pai

 ed Renaissance artists not only through the challenge posed by the nude\, b

 gineered artworks that tangled “before” and “after” into a single pregnant 
 moment. While contrary to the principles of reason and cause\, these necess
 ary and sometimes strange and ingenious solutions nonetheless depended on r
 easoning both aesthetic and ethical. Condensing years of teaching Adam and 
 Eve to undergraduates in a general studies curriculum\, Koerner's lecture w

  (plural errances) wandering\, wanderlust\, restlessly searching</p><p><em>
 synonyms</em></p><p>roaming\, journeying\, strolling\, straying\, searching
 \, travelling</p><p><em>definitions</em></p><ol><li>in its simplest form\, 
 to keep moving\, to roam in search of something. What that “something” repr
 esents for each individual is personal\; something yet to be discovered</li

 g desired\, something meaningful\, something worth exploring</li><li>the pi
 nnacle action in discovery</li></ol><p>The word <em>errance</em> captures t
 he spirit of what lies ahead for the 2020 graduating class as they are “<em
 >travelling not to go anywhere\, but to go</em>” (Robert Stevenson).</p><h3
 >Statement from the Student Exhibition Committee</h3><p>We are living in a 
 moment of profound uncertainty and disquietude\, and it is in the midst of 
 this that the class of 2020 will graduate\; however\, this is not to say we
  have not been adapting to the unexpected. In many ways\, we have embraced 
 and been able to reflect upon the ways in which the element of chance shape
 s our lives and how we work as artists in the world.</p><p>The Covid-19 glo
 bal health crisis dictates that we must forgo the 2020 installment of the U
 BC BFA/BA Visual Art Graduating Exhibition\, but the work of our fellow gra
 duates will not go unnoticed. A printed exhibition catalogue represents the
  diligence and resilience of the 2020 graduating class—and as a physical vo
 lume\, it offers up a tangible exhibition that can be explored time and aga
 in. That is the purpose of art\, after all: it exists for our pleasure and 
 understanding\, it uniquely seeks and finds emotion\, and it is a form of e
 xpression and imagination\, no matter where we are in the world.</p><p>As w
 e have seen over the past several weeks\, communities around the globe have
  turned to artistic expression\, in all its forms\, for respite from anxiet
 y\, for kinship with others\, and for a way to make sense of what is happen
 ing around us. It is daunting\, as graduates\, to take a first step outside
  of the University to British Columbia\, yet it is encouraging to see a wor
 ld so admiring of the arts. If there has ever been a time when we have perh
 aps felt so isolated from one another and simultaneously connected to all c
 orners of the planet\, it is now.</p><p>It is this adaptability to the unfo
 reseen and the willingness to venture down our own paths\, without knowing 
 where they will lead\, that reflect the overall theme of the show\, <em>Err
 ance</em>\, which\, by chance\, we had determined many months ago. The titl
 e we chose\, which draws on the French term denoting wandering and searchin
 g\, considers the exploration that is fundamental to art making and higher 
 learning and celebrates how the ambiguity of this wandering holds both powe
 r and potential unique for each graduating student.</p><p>Take care\,<br />
 <em>Exhibition Committee 2020</em></p><h3>Statement from Faculty Lead\, Phi
 l McCrum</h3><p>The 2020 BFA/BA Visual Art Graduating Exhibition is of cour
 se unique in so many ways. We all\, as a society and community\, are dealin
 g with the extraordinary difficulties that this pandemic has set in our pat
 h. The problems of adequately organizing an exhibition of material practice
  and physical realization have created challenges for our exhibition class 
 that we have never encountered in the many years we have organized and moun
 ted the grad show. First of all\, I would like to thank the participating s
 tudents and congratulate them for their ongoing resilience and fortitude in
  one of the strangest\, most disruptive ends of term imaginable.</p><p>What
  learning curves!</p><p>What we have been able to achieve are a printed exh
 ibition catalogue\, which will be available in early May\, as well as a soc
 ial media campaign in which we use Instagram to profile each participating 
 student over the duration of the intended exhibition dates. (Follow the <em
 >Errance</em> Instagram account\, @ubcundergradshow2020 and the department 
 account\, @ahvaubc). We will also be providing a downloadable PDF of the ca
 talogue and updating the AHVA community via this event page.</p><p>The exhi
 bition class\, VISA 475\, which is responsible for facilitating the end-of-
 year exhibition\, was created approximately eight years ago. This senior un
 dergraduate curatorial course is designed for students who are interested i
 n taking a leadership role in realizing the BFA/BA Visual Art Graduating Ex
 hibition. Through lectures\, seminars\, and field trips\, the course focuse
 s on current curatorial practices and theories with an emphasis on contempo
 rary visual art and it sets itself the task of preparing students to engage
  in the active organization of a large\, complex exhibition.</p><p>VISA 475
  is a great class to teach and\, as usual\, this year’s class brought toget
 her an interesting and inspiring group of students who have been faced with
  perhaps our most difficult exhibition yet. I would like to thank all the s
 tudents in that class\, who have been outstanding throughout the year and t
 hroughout the disruption.</p><p>Phil McCrum<br /><em>Errance</em> Faculty L

  Joan Carlisle-Irving Lectures this 2020-2021 academic year with Amanda  Be
 ech. This lecture will take place online on Zoom in light of COVID-19. We h
 ope you will join us at this free talk open to the public.</p><p><strong>Ar
 t and the Conception of Reality<br /></strong>A lecture by Amanda Beech<br 
 />Presented as part of the Joan Carlisle-Irving Lecture Series<br />UBC Dep
 artment of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory</p><p>5:30 p.m.\, Wednesday\
 , September 30\, 2020<br />This event is free and open to the public.</p><p
 ><strong>Please register for the talk at <a href="https://ubc.zoom.us/webin
 ar/register/WN_SJS1TlaJTQiVXK9sOWMu2Q">https://ubc.zoom.us/webinar/register
 /WN_SJS1TlaJTQiVXK9sOWMu2Q</a></strong></p><p>It is true that our lived rea
 lity has been and remains constituted by abundant and incorrect comprehensi
 ons of the real. Art's fascination with the real\, that is\, structures tha
 t subtend our lived reality and are beyond our immediate perception or even
  cognitive grasp\, is shared by philosophy and science.</p><p>Each discipli
 ne has made different claims to and of the real including the idea that art
  can never be equal to the real\, but can only hypothesize about it. But su
 ch an elimination of art's claim to the real as a possibility for knowledge
  ultimately resuscitates a mythology of Art\, binding Art to regimes of fai
 lure and impossibility and new theological paradigms\; that of knowing what
  we do not know. In this\, we see Art's failure to live up to the critical 
 task of holding others' claims to the real in check and a failure of though
 t to grasp the real\, "unknown unknowns" that would locate Art's stake in a
  project of the future.</p><p>In a world of politics today that predominant
 ly naturalizes massive social inequalities as "the way things are and shoul
 d be" Beech's talk will ask: What role can art have in actualizing futures 
 that are progressively and even radically different from the one we experie
 nce today? This talk will work through some of the terms\, histories and cl
 aims regarding both the real and the role of reason and critique. She will 
 explore the configuration of the real in the process of reason in her own a
 rt practice that finds alignments and companionships with science and philo
 sophy in different parts.</p><p><strong>Amanda Beech</strong> is an artist 
 and writer living in Los Angeles. She is Dean of Critical Studies\, Califor
 nia Institute of the Arts. Beech has shown her artwork and presented her wr
 iting at major international venues including\; Cause and Effect\, Arterica
 mbi Gallery\, Verona\, 2019\, This Time\, a video commission for the Remai

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>November 12\, 2020 - January 30\, 2021<br
  />Western Front<br />Curated by Amy Kazymerchyk</h4><hr /><p><em>Thought\,
  outside </em>is composed with an eye to how each artwork<em> thinks </em>t
 he phenomenon of the outside. This concept is variably expressed as the con
 dition of being out-of-doors\, beyond a geographic delineation\, without le
 gal recognition or unfamiliar with social custom. It is a position that is 
 sometimes articulated in the negative: by that which is not inside. However
 \, the boundary between the inside and outside is rarely fixed or exclusive
 . Rather\, it is relational\, durational and transitory.</p><p>The exhibiti
 on presents lens based artworks by <strong>Craig Berggold</strong>\, <stron
 g>Marlene Creates</strong>\, <strong>Kiss & Tell</strong>\, <strong>Roy Kiy
 ooka</strong>\, <strong>Laiwan</strong>\, <strong>Ken Lum</strong> and <str
 ong>Melinda Mollineaux</strong> produced between the 1970s and 90s. The wor
 ks engage then-emerging frameworks of multiplicity\, plurality and decenter
 ing that make the contingent nature of the outside visible. Their anachroni
 stic encounter draws attention to how artworks continue to think across the
  conditions of presentation.</p><p>Movement across geographic\, economic an
 d cultural boundaries is explored in Kiyooka’s photographs of discarded wor
 k gloves at Expo ’70 Osaka\, <em>StoneDGloves </em>(1970)\; Lum’s performan
 ce along the periphery of the Trans-Canada highway\, <em>Entertainment for 
 Surrey </em>(1978)\; and Berggold’s documents of immigrant farming and unio
 n organizing in the Fraser Valley\, <em>A Time to Change</em> (1984).</p><p
 >The social inscription of the out-of-doors is closely observed in Creates’
  documents of her solitary journey in <em>Sleeping Places\, Newfoundland 19
 82 </em>(1982)\; Laiwan’s reflections on a contested ruin in <em>African No
 tes Part 1 & 2</em> (1982)\; and Mollineaux’s pinhole exposures\, <em>Cadbo
 ro Bay</em> (1998/2020).</p><p>The ideological processes that censor permis
 sion and prohibition are contested in <em>Drawing the Line </em>(1990)\,  K
 iss & Tell’s expansive installation on the representation of lesbian sexual
 ity.</p><p><em>Thought\, outside</em> is curated by Amy Kazymerchyk\, a can
 didate for the MA in Critical and Curatorial Studies at the University of B
 ritish Columbia. Her exhibition is presented with support from the Killy Fo
 undation and the Audain Endowment for Curatorial Studies through the Depart

 </strong></p><p> </p><p>Considering the larger concept of “curating on a co
 ntinuum\,” Chhangur simultaneously looks backwards and forwards with a view
  of her practice as a portal of multi-directional transformation and change
 . Considering key projects along the way—in particular those staged at the 
 Art Gallery of York University (AGYU) in Toronto—and how they informed her 
 concept of <em>In-Reach</em>\, she turns her attention to thinking about <e
 m>In-Reach</em> as a curatorially-engaged practice that has bearing on her 
 upcoming work at the Agnes Etherington Art Centre. If at AGYU\, Chhangur co
 nceived of her work in institutional transformation as an artist’s project\
 , at Agnes\, she considers her directorship as a curatorial one. Underlinin
 g this thinking is a true belief in the fabulatory nature of artistic pract
 ice and its ability to have real consequence on social imaginaries\, instit
 utional structures\, and cultural traditions. Here we consider the curatori
 al as a medium whose forces are relational and whose material encompasses t
 he entire apparatus of institutional mattering—from its civic function to i
 ts social role—all of which is also operating along a continuum and can alw
 ays thus be subject to transformation and change.</p><p><strong>Emelie Chha
 ngur</strong> is a curator\, writer\, and an artist. She is the newly appoi
 nted Director and Curator of the Agnes Etherington Art Centre. This appoint
 ment follows a significant curatorial career at the Art Gallery of York Uni
 versity (AGYU). At AGYU\, she led the reorientation of the gallery to becom
 e a civic\, community-facing\, ethical space driven by social process and i
 ntersectional collaboration\, she founded the gallery’s residency program\,
  and she received 25 OAAG awards for her contributions in writing\, publish
 ing\, exhibition-making\, and public and education programming.</p><p>Disti
 nguishing herself as a cultural worker dedicated to questioning the social 
 and civic role of the public institutions of art\, Chhangur has developed a
  curatorially-engaged approach to working across cultural\, aesthetic\, and
  social differences through a practice she calls “in-reach”—a concept that 
 has since transformed engaged institutional practice in the arts across Can
 ada. In 2019\, she won the Ontario Association of Art Galleries’ inaugural 
 BIPOC (Black\, Indigenous\, People of Colour) Changemaker Award and in 2020
 \, she won the prestigious Hnatyshyn Foundation Award for Curatorial Excell
 ence. She holds a Master of Visual Studies from the Daniels Faculty of Arch
 itecture\, Landscape\, and Design\, University of Toronto.</p><p>This visit

 orial Studies.</p><p> </p>

 >The Polygon<br />Curated by Andrea Sanchez Ibarrola</h4><hr /><p class="ma
 rgin-0 margin-bottom-100">The exhibition <em>Miradas Alternas</em> explores
  alternative approaches to the photographic representation of violence in c
 ontemporary Mexico. It features photographs\, video and printed material by
  women lens-based artists from Mexico: Juliana Alvarado\, Alejandra Aragón\
 , Koral Carballo\, Mariceu Erthal and Sonia Madrigal. Combining artistic\, 
 documentary and journalistic approaches\, their work responds to the ongoin
 g femicide crisis that has exponentially increased in recent years\, along 
 with enforced disappearances and multiple forms of criminal violence\, amid
 st an ongoing armed conflict of unimaginable horror and yet so full of imag
 es. Rejecting the forensic gaze common to news photography and mass media\,
  they draw on language\, use poetic devices and employ performative strateg
 ies to produce photographic images differently. Focusing on the affects of 
 loss\, grief\, rage\, and fear\, their work evokes the absence of missing a
 nd murdered women and tell stories that claim spaces for presence\, visibil
 ity and justice.</p><p class="margin-0 margin-bottom-100"><strong>Juliana A
 lvarado</strong> (b. Cuautla\, 1990) is a visual artist interested in exami
 ning social\, economic and political systems in relation to space\, archite
 cture and built environments. In 2016 she won an artistic residency at Ofic
 ina de Arte (Mexico City) and recently her work was selected for Mexico’s P
 hotography Biennial (2018) and FotoMéxico Festival (2019).</p><p class="mar
 gin-0 margin-bottom-100"><strong>Alejandra Aragón</strong> (b. Ciudad Juáre
 z\, 1983) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores the identities 
 of border regions and how territories determine one’s experience. in 2019 s
 he was awarded the Mexican Fine Arts Grant (FONCA) and a film production gr
 ant from the Tribeca Film Institute If/Then Program. This year she is one o
 f the participants of the 2020 Joop Swart Masterclass.</p><p class="margin-
 0 margin-bottom-100"><strong>Koral Carballo</strong> (b. Poza Rica\, 1987) 
 dissolves frontiers between photojournalism and visual arts to address issu
 es of identity\, land and violence. Her work has been published internation
 ally and awarded by Bronx Documentary Center\, Women Photograph + Getty Ima
 ges\, Magnum Foundation Fund\, Open Society Foundations\, among others. She
  is co-founder of Mirar Distinto\, a documentary photo-festival based in Ve
 racruz\, Mexico.</p><p class="margin-0 margin-bottom-100"><strong>Mariceu E
 rthal </strong>(b. Querétaro\, 1989) uses documentary photography as a brid
 ge to reflect and question humanitarian issues that traverses Latin America
 n territories. She is a 2020 W. Eugene Smith Fund Grant Recipient and her w
 ork has been published in The Guardian\, Ph Museum\, Witness by World Press
  Photo\, among others.</p><p class="margin-0 margin-bottom-100">Using multi
 ple visual narratives <strong>Sonia Madrigal </strong>(b. Ciudad Nezahualcó
 yotl\, 1978) explores the intersections of gendered bodies\, violence and t
 erritory\, particularly within the Eastern periphery of Mexico’s Greater Me

 she has been awarded the Mexican Fine Arts Extended Grant (SNCA-FONCA).</p>

 To change anything\, start everywhere. </em>– CrimethInc.</p><p><strong>Rad
 ical (Re)worlding </strong>is a collaborative\, interdisciplinary event\, o
 rganized by current AHVA graduate students that is excited to present contr
 ibutions on a wide variety of topics\, both contemporary and historical\, b
 y emerging academics\, artists\, curators\, and independent researchers and
  theorists.</p><p>We’re thinking about radical ideas such as xenofeminism’s
  post-gender world\; anarchists’ dual-power projects\; accelerationism’s em
 brace of automation and rejection of folk politics\; Agamben’s destituency\
 ; and finally in the academy\, the growing body of thinking around the Unde
 rcommons.</p><p>Forty-plus years ago\, Gayatri Spivak defined “worlding” as
  the transformation of the colonized space by colonizers (e.g.\, through ma
 p making). Can we retake or remake that term? Rather than hit <undo>\, can 
 we\, in fact\, do better?</p><p><em>...imagination is a contested field of 
 action\, not an ephemeral afterthought that we have the luxury to dismiss o
 r romanticize\, but a resource\, a battleground\, an input and output of te
 chnology and social order. In fact\, we should acknowledge that most people
  are forced to live inside someone else's imagination and one of the things
  we have to come to grips with is how the nightmares that many people are f
 orced to endure are the underside of elite fantasies about efficiency\, pro
 fit and social control. </em>– Ruha Benjamin</p><p>Another world is possibl

 ance artists not only through the important challenge posed by the nude\, b
 ut also because of the subject’s temporal demand: the sudden\, time-bound l
 apse from innocence to guilt. Restricted to the static medium of images\, a
 rtists engineered artworks that tangled “before” and “after” into a single 
 pregnant moment. While contrary to the principles of reason and cause\, the
 se necessary and sometimes strange and ingenious solutions nonetheless depe
 nded on reasoning both aesthetic and ethical. Condensing years of teaching 
 Adam and Eve to undergraduates in a general studies curriculum focussed on 
 “ethical reasoning\," Koerner's lecture will explore works by Hieronymus Bo
 sch\, Albrecht Dürer\, Hans Baldung Grien\, and others as powerful and some
 times dangerous prompts for ethical—and unethical—reflection on the part of
  us\, their viewers.</p><p><strong>Joseph Leo Koerner</strong> is the Thoma
 s Professor of History of Art and Architecture and Senior Fellow of the Soc
 iety of Fellows at Harvard University. He is author\, most recently\, of <e
 m>Bosch and Bruegel: From Enemy Painting to Everyday Life</em>. His feature
  film <em>The Burning Child</em>\, released in 2019\, concerns homemaking i
 n Vienna from 1900 until the present.</p>

 n us for a conversation with artist Haegue Yang on the occasion of her rece

 tario. This focused survey comprised of eighty-four artworks\, including ne
 w commissions and large-scale installations\, sculptures\, two-dimensional 
 works\, and video essays created over the past twenty-five years.</p><p><em
 >Emergence</em> refers to a phenomenon in which a system or entity develops
  new qualities that are distinct from its individual parts. As the first No
 rth American retrospective survey of Yang’s work to date\, the exhibition d
 raws attention to the unique features of her practice\, while showcasing th
 e contextual relationships between individual pieces and the circumstances 
 of their creation.</p><p>During this talk\, Yang will discuss her varied pr
 actice with a virtual exhibition tour. She will also introduce the brand-ne
 w catalogue <em>Haegue Yang: Emergence</em>\, which contains essays that he
 lp contextualize Yang’s artistic career\, and generate new understandings o
 f her transformative contributions to the field of contemporary art.</p><p>
 <strong>Haegue Yang </strong>was born in 1971 in Seoul\, South Korea. Curre
 ntly\, she lives and works in Berlin and Seoul. Her works are known for the
 ir eloquent and seductive sculptural language of visual abstraction out of 
 her research on historical figures and events. Yang has participated in maj

 e were to ask about the year 2020\, one might say our society is currently 
 experiencing extreme "folds." The fold has been understood as the opening a
 nd closing of space\, whether that be something as simple as paper or as co
 mplicated as time. The fold can be thought of as a metaphor for how our uni
 verse is structured\; these folds are metaphysical\, in that they fold thro
 ugh time\, space\, and reality. The folding of reality and the folding of v
 irtual reality has become all too much.</p><p>These folded lines both divid
 e and connect us. This year\, our 2021 BFA/BA Visual Art Graduating Exhibit
 ion will engage with this fold of virtual with physical but also the foldin
 g of time. Each participating artist will propose their own personal foldin
 g of time with past\, present and future all being shown at one moment: The
  past four years at UBC (and beyond)\, the present moment and the future of
  their art practice are all folding into this current moment\, this current
  fold.</p><p>This event is free and open to the public.<br />Gallery hours:

 Impacts of a Conflicted City: Contemporary Art in Karachi</em>\, curator an
 d writer Zarmeene Shah presents a continued investigation into the changing
  face of the sprawling metropolis of Karachi through codes of overt and cov
 ert conflict\, as explored through ideas of power and control\, geography a
 nd territory\, right and access. Viewing curating as a series of (interlink
 ed) research-based projects\, these concerns have manifested in a broad ran
 ge of exhibitions and writings\, with a sustained focus over some years on 
 the study of the visual and spatial impact of measures of barricading\, pol
 icing\, securitization\, militarization\, surveillance and control in the u
 rban context\, and how this relates to the position/rights of those that in
 habit the city. This investigation branches further into the ways in which 
 conflict manifests in our interaction with the city\, its land\, and its en
 vironments\, impacting both the human and the non-human. Tracing these conc
 erns through the research-based practices of contemporary Pakistani artists
 \, including Seema Nusrat\, Bani Abidi\, Seher Naveed\, Sohail Zuberi and M
 adiha Aijaz\, amongst others\, and taking as a case study the changing face
  of the city of Karachi\, marked by a history of violence and conflict\, Sh
 ah’s research unfolds into a larger regional\, and then global framework.</
 p><p class="">This presentation will include a pre-recorded lecture followe
 d by a live Q&A session.</p><p>Zarmeene Shah is an academic\, and an indepe
 ndent curator and writer currently based in Karachi\, Pakistan. Focusing on
  global contemporary art with specialist knowledge of the Global South\, Sh
 ah’s research-based practice investigates ideas of power and control\, geog
 raphy and territory\, rights and access. Amongst other large-scale projects
 \, she has served as Curator at Large of the inaugural Karachi Biennale (KB
 17). She is currently Associate Professor and Head of the Liberal Arts prog
 ram at the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture.</p><p class="">This

 ance for everybody hold? As a form that depends on bodies and relationality
 \, this project asks if dance can serve as an inclusive and equitable space
  for all bodies.</p><p dir="ltr">By taking an interdisciplinary approach\, 
 and inviting a choreographer\, writer and visual artist to explore what dan
 ces for everybody may be\, this project considers the potential of dance as
  a medium. It also attempts to expand an understanding of dance through dis
 cursive programming\, in which community participants can offer their own p
 erspectives and interpretations of dance.</p><p dir="ltr">The project inclu

SUMMARY: Germaine Koh: Processes

 oh’s new public exhibition <em>Processes</em>\, opening Wednesday\, Novembe
 r 24\, 2021 and running through January 14\, 2022. The gallery is located o
 n the second floor of the AMS Student Nest\, 6133 University Boulevard\, Va
 ncouver. Gallery hours: 12:00 to 4:00pm\, Monday to Friday (closed December
  18 to January 3).</p><p>Germaine Koh is the 2021 Koerner Artist in Residen
 ce at the University of British Columbia. As one of the most influential co
 nceptual artists in Canada\, Koh is renowned for her ephemeral and concept-
 driven artistic production. Koh’s Processes actively explores two of her co
 ntinuing works\, <em>Accord of Wood</em>\, begun in 2013\, and <em>Fête</em
 >\, ongoing since 1997. Both works specifically look at processes of transf
 ormation\, accumulation\, archiving\, and administration of commonplace mat
 erials\, and how they change through the process of time. <em>Accord of Woo
 d</em> began as one cord of beetle-kill pine\, which will be transformed ov
 er time as it adapts to different administrative systems and records a grow
 ing understanding around both the material and Indigenous land rights. <em>
 Fête</em> displays a growing collection of the artist’s own hair\, cut and 
 sewn into swags over the past twenty-five years. The work evokes celebrator
 y décor and rites of passage\, while recording the aging of a female body a
 nd other changes over time.</p><p>This exhibition is curated by Violetta La
 pinski in collaboration with fellow class members in VISA 475: Exhibition T
 heory and Practice and Professor Althea Thauberger\, with the support of th
 e AMS\, the Art History Students’ Association and Mia Chen\, the Visual Art
  Students’ Association\, and the Department of Art History\, Visual Art and

 ally active artist and curator based in Vancouver\, in the ancestral territ
 ories of the Musqueam\, Squamish\, and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations. Her wo
 rk adapts familiar objects to create situations that look at the significan
 ce of everyday actions and common spaces\, and which encourage connections 
 between people\, technology\, and natural systems. She is currently working
  on a public art commission for the Topaz Skatepark in Victoria. Her ongoin
 g projects include <em>Home Made Home</em>\, an initiative to build and adv
 ocate for alternative forms of housing\, and <em>League</em>\, a participat
 ory project using play as a form of creative practice. From 2018 to 2020\,

 reated\,” the French poet Stéphane Mallarmé proclaimed in the late nineteen
 th century. Fallen out of sync with its time\, the creation of art\, Mallar
 mé suggested\, was like casting dice into an uncertain future\, a gamble on
  a potential public to come. This necessary but futile struggle against cha
 nce was the subject of his notorious spatial poem <em>A throw of the Dice n
 ever will abolish Chance</em> (1897). This talk will grapple with Mallarmé'
 s thinking on chance\, history\, and aesthetic reception. It will argue tha
 t Marcel Duchamp\, in the decades following Mallarmé's death\, read the poe
 t's work as he confronted his own sense that communication in the present w
 as destined to failure and that posterity was a game of chance.</p><p>Trevo

 register/WN_bGsD9bjIT9yze-0-itL5Zw</a></p><p>The artistic production of med
 ieval Dalmatia has long been interpreted as the outcome of artistic interac
 tions between different cultures. The present paper will propose a reconsid
 eration of the conceptual grounds on which the “Adriatic” has been construe
 d as a liminal\, or hybrid\, artistic context. Emphasis will be laid on a r
 elatively large number of 14th-century paintings which came to be attribute
 d to the Adriatic Eastern coast on account of their distinctive mixture of 
 Venetian and Byzantine forms. It will investigate the extent to which an un
 conventional combination of forms was understood as a clue to the origin fr
 om an area deemed to be the site of overlapping artistic geographies. At th
 e same time\, it will delve into the analysis of some distinctive case stud
 ies that may shed light on the multifarious approaches toward styles and pi
 ctorial traditions encountered in the multi-layered societies of Dalmatia’s
  port towns in the late Medieval period.</p><p>Michele Bacci (Ph.D.\, Scuol

  the traumas and alienation of displaced subjects affected by legacies of c
 olonial and state violence. Characterised by a distinct visual language and
  unique poetic approach\, her works often use the ordinary as a means to co

 <span data-contrast="auto"> “I want to be like a virus that belongs to the 
 institution\,” he explicitly took the HIV virus that was killing him as a r
 oadmap for his own strategic involvement in the museum world. The defining 
 characteristic of the AIDS virus was to camouflage itself within the immune
  system so as to appear to be part of the very system it was intent on dest
 roying. In this talk\, Katz traces the history of this viral approach\, fro
 m the earliest Pictures Generation through AIDS and onto the most recent ac
 tivist art\, exploring how and why protest today so often mirrors the very 
 forms it works to detonate.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0\,"33

 obinson</strong></p><p>What is body? What is flesh? What is human? Despite 
 our incessant connection via screen during the past two years of pandemic i
 solation\, we yearn to regain the intimacy of embodiment. Bodily presence h
 as been eroded by the paradigm shift towards global digitalization\, and it
  feels more imperative now than ever to return to the flesh. Is our shared 
 ontological flesh destined to remain alienated\, or will it be reclaimed an
 d reconstituted?</p><p>Flesh concerns the physical and immanent reality of 
 bodies\; it is central to the dialogues of our lived experience/encounters 
 with the world. The materiality of the flesh is embedded in the body’s affe
 ctive functions\, enabling its faculty for inscription and performance. Thi
 s exhibition is critically invested in the ways in which artists work with 
 various notions and materials of flesh. In other words\, how do the bodies 
 of artists serve as interlocutors between theory and such inscribed and per
 formed praxis?</p><p><em>This event takes place remotely\, but the Universi

 r T'ai Smith\, will take a look at the economic\, historical\, technologica
 l\, and preservation aspects of this new art form. The roundtable will brin
 g together participants from different perspectives. Blake Finucane\, who e
 arned her MA in Art History in 2018\, will talk about the ways her historic
 al research into crypto art informs her current practice as an investor in 
 NFTs. She will underscore how NFTs can help artists from minority or less-p
 rivileged backgrounds attain visibility in a traditionally rarefied environ
 ment. Timothy Fernandes (AHVA Digital Media Technician) will address some o
 f the technological aspects underpinning NFTs. At the same time\, he will b
 ring a critical eye to an artistic sphere that seems to be so strongly driv
 en by commercial considerations. Rémi Castonguay (Curator of Collections in
  the AHVA Visual Resources Centre) will bring the perspective of an informa
 tion professional\, concerned with collecting and preserving cultural repre
 sentations. His take will be inscribed within the history of image technolo
 gy. T’ai Smith will moderate the roundtable and frame the discussion from a
 n art and economic historical perspective.</p><p><strong>Rémi Castonguay</s

 ous Art: Traversing Temporalities and Plural Points of Resistance</strong><
 /p><p><strong>Jamie Lewis\, Diploma in Art History</strong></p><p>The year 
 1992\, or the quincentennial anniversary Columbus’s arrival to the Americas
 \, represented cause for both celebration and tension depending on which si
 de of the Indigenous or non-Indigenous parallel histories one belonged. As 
 a counterpoint to Columbus’s celebration\, the INDIGENA project\, an exhibi
 tion and publication of nineteen contemporary Indigenous visual artists and
  eight writers\, grew out of a “concern that indigenous peoples would be th
 e recipient of a five-hundred-year hangover without ever having attended We
 stern civilizations party.” Borrowing from Michel Foucault’s theories on re
 sistance\, the paper explores intersections of temporality and resistance w
 ithin INDIGENA and Indigenous resistance not only in the form of ruptures o
 r direct conflict\, but also as a web of slow-moving resistance with rhizom
 atic movement between the past\, present\, and future.</p><hr /><p><strong>
 Visual Technologies of Translation: The Personal Slide Viewer in the Twenti
 eth Century</strong></p><p><strong>Fred Oliver Beeby\, 3<sup>rd</sup>-Year 
 Bachelor of Media Studies Major\, Art History Minor</strong></p><p>The hand
 held slide viewer was a visual technology ubiquitous throughout the twentie
 th century\, with examples such as the View-Master becoming a household nam
 e. Many of the slides for these devices depict scenes of our planet—from la
 ndscapes to outer-space images. In this essay\, I argue that the personal s
 lide viewer evidences two paradigms of visualizing the earth that collide i
 n the mid-twentieth century: an anthropocentric vision that emerged in the 
 Early Modern period but reached its acme in the nineteenth century\; and an
  encroaching Anthropocenic vision in which the human is not a surveyor upon
  the planet but inseparable from and immersed in it. By looking at mid-cent
 ury advertisements for the handheld slide viewer\, contextualized by analyz
 ing other “earth-observing” images of this period\, we can understand perso
 nal slide viewers as media technologies of translation between these two vi
 sual modes.</p><hr /><p><strong>Nude Bathers</strong></p><p><strong>Maisie 
 Westerman\, 2<sup>nd</sup>-Year Art History Major</strong></p><p>In this pa
 per\, I examine <em>The Bathers</em> (1937) by Group of Seven affiliate and
  Beaver Hall member Edwin Holgate. Taking the genre of landscape painting t
 o be a manifestation of state-sponsored cultural creation in twentieth-cent
 ury Canada\, Holgate’s piece\, which combines landscape and its opposite\, 
 portraiture\, reveals tensions around national identity\, art\, and gender.
  Further analyses of nude paintings from the same period\, such as Prudence
  Heward’s <em>Hester </em>(1937) and Lilias Torrance Newton’s <em>Nude in t
 he Studio</em> (1933)\, introduce an alternative to the white\, masculine\,
  colonial character of Canadian national identity peddled by the Group of S
 even and the state in the early twentieth century.</p><hr /><p><strong>Eat 
 Your Power</strong></p><p><strong>Michael Dang\, 4<sup>th</sup>-Year Art Hi
 story Major</strong></p><p>Feminist artist Anita Steckel’s self-assertion o
 f her identity\, in the painting <em>New York Landscape #5 (Eat your power…
 ) </em>(1970–80)\, is dependent on her erotic imagery that mobilizes the er
 ect male phallus. While other self-described feminist artists of the 1970s 
 were interested in sterilizing the charge from the phallus\, Steckel assert
 ed her identity as a heterosexual Jewish woman through her evocations of “p
 ornography” as seen in <em>Eat your power</em>. Steckel can be seen as util
 izing the phallus motif two-fold: to both criticize the dominance of the ph
 allocentric order but also to assert her own subjectivity and desires. This
  essay argues that Steckel’s brand of unabashed eroticism anticipates many 
 third-wave feminisms of the 1980s and 1990s\, that celebrated myriad and me
 ssy female desire or <em>jouissance</em>\, and thus her work has often been
  excluded from retrospectives of second-wave seventies feminist art.</p>

 > is a two-day gathering\, which invites community and public participation
 \, of artists\, writers\, researchers\, and activists seeking to together p
 robe and imagine ways of overcoming impasses in decolonial horizons through
  creative alternatives to traditional academic events. We meet on unceded a
 ncestral Musqueam territory on May 11 to share art and research that explor
 e the by-turns antagonistic and yet mutually embracing questions of raciali
 zation and of labour – both grounds of capital’s vociferous extractive tech
 niques. We take both racialized oppression and value-productive exploitatio
 n to share a conjuncture that necessitates surmounting common external cons
 traints imposed by capital’s colonization of everyday life\, a second order
  of colonization compounding that of settler-state colonization. While the 
 Indian Act dispossessed First Nations peoples of their resources and forms 
 of life\, the seemingly “free” sale of remaining lands and resources\, incl
 uding that of the labour power of Indigenous peoples\, might be understood 
 as anything but free\, and instead as another order of coercive compulsion 
 by capital and another round of dispossession possibly posing as self-deter
 mination.</p><p>Some shared questions to ponder together: To what extent ha
 ve struggles against colonial oppression and the capitalist exploitation of
  labour-power – above all indigenous labour – lived in the shadow of each o
 ther’s blind spots? Does the sale (rather than seizure) of land and resourc
 es embedded within it liberate or doubly dispossess Indigenous peoples who 
 continue to be stewards of the land\, even as that sale might enrich the di
 spossessed in the short-term? Is the sale of labour-power one such resource
  or does it afford Indigenous peoples a path to self-determination within c
 ommunity? Is the value-productive sale of the commodity labour-power in the
  transactional and abstract space of the labour market just another form of
  colonial capture? Is decolonization authentically possible within a capita
 list social rubric in which impersonal and transactional social relations d
 issolve community? (What would life outside a market-mediated relation look
  like for most of us now and especially for those who seek sovereignty with
 in and against the colonial state? What does overcoming the settler state a
 nd the forms of possession it has sewn in us [identity\, property] mean for
  Turtle Island now in practical terms\, in everyday life?) And what of unse
 en Indigenous cultural and spiritual labour\, unknown labour that is only s
 hared within communities and for Indigenous witnesses? What is the value of
  Indigenous and non-Indigenous cultural labour that facilitates ideas of so
 cial justice within institutional structures such as UBC? What are artists 
 and historians doing to acknowledge the labour value of culture and how is 
 this knowledge disseminated to students?</p><p>We hope to take these questi
 ons on through forms of embodied engagement\, of art\, performance practice
 s\, and through sharing research and conversation. We also hope to open the
 se questions up to our communities across what is known as UBC and as Vanco
 uver on these unceded and traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musq
 ueam)\, sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh)\, and sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish Coast S
 alish) peoples.</p><p>Participants: Sonny Assu\, Dana Claxton\, Glen Coulth

 , Visual Art and Theory (AHVA) at the University of British Columbia is ple
 ased to announce Diamond Point (Musqueam) as the new Koerner Artist in Resi
 dence. During her residency (September 1 to December 31\, 2022)\, Point wil
 l be working in a studio at the Audain Art Centre\, present work as part of
  the <a href="https://ahva.ubc.ca/events/event/ahva-faculty-staff-exhibitio

 public artist talk on her work on October 19\, 2022 at 5:30 p.m. in Lasserr
 e 104.</p><p>“What appeals to me most about the residency is the opportunit
 y to connect with myself as an artist and Musqueam person. Being at UBC\, i
 n proximity to my home community\, it feels like home. The residency will p
 rovide opportunities to convey\, to faculty\, students\, and the UBC commun
 ity\, the longstanding history and connections that Musqueam people have to
  this territory. Any opportunity to teach this and to bring aspects of hist
 ory and language into awareness\, through my work\, is what drives me as an
  artist.”</p><p>Diamond Point is an artist and educator. She was born and r
 aised on the Musqueam First Nation\, and is currently based in Ladner. She 
 is a graduate of UBC’s Indigenous Teacher Education Program in the Faculty 
 of Education\, and leads Indigenous governance learning at West Point Grey 
 Academy as the Indigenous Education Coordinator. Point has been involved wi
 th numerous cultural mentorship programs\, such as the Native Youth Program
  at the Museum of Anthropology\, Gathering Our Voices workshops\, and\, mor
 e recently\, a Canoe Awakening Ceremony with Delta School District. At West
  Point Grey Academy\, Point teaches Contemporary Indigenous Studies 12 and 
 Social Studies 10.</p><p>Point’s recent projects have often been site-speci
 fic and developed for installation in the public sphere\, reaching broad au
 diences. Her works incorporate Musqueam and Coast Salish design elements pa
 ssed down from her ancestors since time immemorial\, while addressing issue
 s of territorial justice and protocols that continue to the present day. Po
 int’s recent public banner work\, <em>wəɬ m̓i ct q̓pəθət tə ɬniməɬ</em>\, w
 as exhibited as part of the exhibition <em>Soundings</em> at the Morris and
  Helen Belkin Art Gallery in 2020\, and remained in place until September 2
 022. The banners were hung in a sequence on the lampposts along UBC’s Main 
 Mall from James Hart’s Reconciliation Pole to the plaza just beyond the Bel
 kin Gallery. Incorporating the visual motifs of raised canoe paddles\, the 
 work harkened the traditional protocol of visitors to the land identifying 
 themselves and awaiting permission and welcome before coming ashore.</p><p>
 Diamond Point’s work has been recently exhibited at the Museum of Anthropol
 ogy\, Totem Park Residences\, Patagonia Vancouver\, Vancouver Art Gallery\,
  Vancouver Mural Festival\, Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery\, and Captu
 re Photography Festival.</p><p>The Koerner Artist in Residence Program in t
 he Department of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory is made possible by th
 e generous support of the Koerner Foundation and a private BC-based foundat
 ion. Past Koerner Artists in Residence were Germaine Koh\, Stan Douglas\, a

 ast="none">Arguably the most multi-faceted of the global avant-garde moveme
 nts of the interwar period\, surrealism has long been recognized to encompa
 ss an ethnographic dimension. The anthropologist James Clifford has gone as
  far as coining the term "ethnographic surrealism" to describe the subversi
 ve magazine of arts and culture edited by Georges Bataille\, </span><i><spa
 n data-contrast="none">Documents</span></i><span data-contrast="none">\, wh
 ich juxtaposes ethnographic (including archaeological) materials with those
  of contemporary art and popular culture. Yet\, the ethnographic dimension 
 of surrealism also goes beyond this rhetorical use of professional ethnolog
 y by Bataille’s so-called dissident group\, and should be considered more b
 roadly to include psychiatry\, the profession in which surrealism's leading
  poet André Breton was initially trained\, and the unofficial documentation
  of urban habits such as graffiti and fashion in the journal </span><i><spa
 n data-contrast="none">Minotaure</span></i><span data-contrast="none">. Thi
 s talk will therefore argue that an always implicitly ethnographic surreali
 sm was mainly concerned with documenting and making visible non-sovereign a

 will raise questions on what the institution cannot hold. This presentation

 history of media studies’ and art history’s reliance on “Africa” as shortha

  Einstein’s </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">Negerplastik</span></i><sp
 an data-contrast="auto">’s non-contextual photographs of African sculpture 
 to Marshall McLuhan’s many invocations of Africans’ inability to perceive f
 ilm or television\, Africa was foundational to theories of medium in both f
 ields. This talk will discuss this history in relation to the burgeoning di
 gital and media art scene on the African continent\, and will ultimately pr
 opose a broader understanding of mediation tied to an “Atlantic” history of
  art. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0\,"335559739":160\,"335559

 as long shaped the history and visual culture of medieval Eastern Europe\, 
 which have transformed in local contexts the rich legacy of the medieval Ea
 stern Roman Empire before and after the fall of Constantinople in 1453. Thi
 s lecture explores the history and artistic production of medieval Eastern 
 Europe in relation to Byzantium through the lens of two notable women and t
 heir impact: Simonis\, the daughter of the Byzantine Emperor Andronikos II 
 (r. 1282–1328) and wife of the Serbian King Milutin (r. 1282–1321)\, and Ma
 ria Asanina Palaiologina of Mangup\, the second wife of Stephen III of Mold
 avia (r. 1457–1504). These royal women played critical roles in establishin
 g diplomatic connections and promoting artistic contacts between the Byzant
 ine cultural sphere and the Serbian and Moldavian realms\, respectively. Th
 e analysis of key objects and monuments - ranging from monumental building 
 projects to mural cycles\, textiles\, manuscripts\, and metalwork - reveals
  local adaptations of competing traditions and how interconnected the regio
 ns of the Balkans and the Carpathians were relative to Byzantium and to eac
 h other during and after the empire’s collapse. In addition\, the lecture o
 utlines current scholarly approaches to the study of the visual culture of 
 medieval Eastern Europe\, and engages with theoretical concerns and issues 
 of terminology around the study of art and architecture in cross-cultural a
 nd transcultural contexts.</p><p><strong>Maria Alessia Rossi </strong>(PhD\
 , Courtauld Institute of Art) is an Art History Specialist at the Index of 
 Medieval Art at Princeton University. She has taught medieval and Byzantine
  art history in diverse settings\, such as the Courtauld Institute of Art\,
  adult education institutions in London\, and New Jersey prisons. Her main 
 research interests include issues of cultural contact\, transmission\, and 
 appropriation of Byzantine artistic traditions in the Balkans and in wester
 n medieval regions\; the role of Christ’s miracles in both text and image i
 n the Mediterranean after 1204\; patronage patterns\; and the transfer of a
 rtistic ideas and the shaping of women’s identities beyond geographical bor
 ders. Currently she is working on a book exploring the proliferation of Chr
 ist’s miracles in monumental decoration in Byzantium (1261-1330).</p><p><st

 -4.html"><em>Fragment\, Image\, and Absence in 1960s Japan</em></a> was pub
 lished by PSU Press in December 2022. It examines how the notion of “the ob
 ject” was transformed in Japanese experimental art during a time of rapid s
 ocial\, economic\, and environmental change. Reviving the legacies of the h
 istorical avant-garde\, Japanese artists and intellectuals of the 1960s for
 mulated an aesthetics of disaffection through which they sought to address 
 the stalemate of political and aesthetic representation. By examining the d
 iscursive practices of artists working across a wide range of media\, and t
 hrough a close analysis of artwork\, philosophical debates\, artist theorie
 s\, and critical accounts\, the book shows how negativity became an efficac
 ious means of addressing politics as a source for the creative act of undoi
 ng.</p><p>Erin Silver is Assistant Professor of contemporary Canadian art a

 in the present day  engage with\, respond to\, and challenge the institutio

 f Maroneia in northern Greece in its wider Mediterranean context. The prima
 ry objective of the course is to train students in significant values and a
 rchaeological methods\, including data analysis and management\, the close 
 study of excavated artifacts\, and the digitization of excavation archives\
 , such archaeological diaries\, photographs and drawings. Students will als
 o gain an understanding of the material culture and archaeological remains 
 of medieval Greece as well as insights into how these are made accessible a
 nd available to the academic community\, the classroom\, and the wider publ
 ic. These objectives will be achieved through hands-on experience of archae
 ological fieldwork and study as part of the Maroneia Archaeological Project
  (MAP). The project involves the processing and sorting of archaeological f
 inds\, including ceramics\, that have been collected through excavation\; t
 heir interpretation with the aim of understanding the connections a medieva
 l harbor in northern Greece had with the outside world\; and the examinatio
 n of excavated medieval houses\, tombs and churches. In addition to contrib
 uting to the study of archaeological materials\, students will attend semin
 ars on Classical and Byzantine archaeology in Greece and visit important mu
 seums and cultural heritage sites in northern Greece. In addition to introd
 ucing students to the landscape of modern Greece\, this type of work in the
  field will foster a collaborative spirit among students and will promote t
 he value of teamwork. Finally\, students will be encouraged to use the data
  and finds they studied in the field to initiate their own individual cours
 e projects.</p><p>[buttons][button link_text="Visit Go Global for more info

 rselves in the simultaneity of these lineages and trajectories\, we’ve disc
 overed an everyday kind of time travel. Doing the inner work of being an ar

  Futures // </strong>intends to examine the potentiality of liminality as a
  portal to a better future and include works by <strong>Rah Eleh</strong>\,
  <strong>Diasporic Futurisms (Vanessa Godden </strong>and <strong>Adrienne 
 Matheuszik)\, Skawennati\, </strong>and<strong> Audie Murray.</strong> In m
 ainstream post-apocalyptic visions of the future\, the focus is predominant
 ly on global catastrophes that lead to human extinction. These stories usua
 lly explicitly centre figures of whiteness as their protagonists and the su
 rvivors of the apocalypse who can save the world. In these narratives\, str
 ategies and methods to preserve the future of humanity are more concerned w
 ith protecting the future of global structures rooted in a set of social\, 
 political\, and economic structures derived from Eurocentric systems of imp
 erialism\, colonialism\, and capitalism. This can be seen in the structural
  absence of BIPOC bodies in mainstream science fiction\, or the tokenizatio
 n of these characters as a source of difference and otherness within a post
 -apocalyptic future that stemmed from racial contamination and racial paran
 oia. At the same time\, these stories completely neglect to address the dis
 proportionate effect of the eco-crisis on marginalized communities worldwid
 e.</p><p>Instead\, // Liminal Futures // centre diverse knowledge and plura
 listic forms of agency that undermine the current hegemonic notion of ‘huma
 nity’. In contrast to an apocalyptic future\, they embrace nonlinear tempor
 alities and forms of liminality to put forth multiple futures. It can creat
 e alternatives to apocalypse visions to open up the possibility for the eme
 rgence of a new pluralistic world beyond the apocalypse of colonial dominat
 ion. The exhibition will address the speculative possibilities of liminal f
 uturisms to create generative solidarities and forms of collective power. I
 t takes into consideration the multiplicity of lived experiences and embrac
 es knowledge from different communities that exist in the world. Post-colon
 ial theorist Homi Bhabha\, in particular\, has referred to liminality as a 
 transitory\, in-between state or space characterized by ambiguity\, hybridi
 ty\, and potential for subversion and change in his 1994 text\, “Location o
 f Culture.” Liminality identifies an environment in which cultural transfor
 mation can take place\, creating sites and opportunities for major societal
  changes.</p><p>At the same time\, the exhibition draws on multiple cosmolo
 gies that embrace alternative temporalities in which the ‘past’\, ‘present’
 \, and ‘future’ are interwoven\, where multiple intersections of time exist
  to imagine the possibilities of a sustainable future for all that embody m
 utually enhancing relations and collective wisdom. It puts forth alternativ
 e methods of examining nonlinear and equitable futures that are parallel to
  our own\, from which we can collapse into our world to encourage steps tow
 ards making these futures our reality. The exhibition proposes a set of str
 ategies and knowledge for hybrid beings to embrace radical temporality and 
 liminality beyond the imagination of colonial futures. In doing so\, strive
  away from the imposition of differences amongst marginalized communities t
 o imagine and build collective futures through solidarity and mutually enha
 ncing relationships for future generations.</p><p><strong>Diane Hau Yu Wong

 Levy-Milne</p><hr /><p>For those makers whose lived experiences are haunted
  by diasporic\, displaced—or perhaps more generally\, disrupted identities—
 craft and textile mediums offer particularly poignant techniques of articul
 ation. In <em>Ghostly Makers</em>\, these experiences and enunciations of h
 aunting that exist in relation to the artists’ distinct social positions or
  cultural specificities take on similar material vernaculars. Acting as veh
 icles for storytelling\, the craft methods employed go beyond their aesthet
 ic appearances to imbue works with culturally specific meaning by way of th
 eir materials and processes of creation.</p><p>Bringing together the artist
 s <strong>Samar Hejazi\, Jacqueline Morrisseau-Addison\, Keysha Rivera\, Ar
 ezu Salamzadeh\, </strong>and<strong> Lan “Florence” Yee</strong>\, this ex
 hibition utilizes material vocalizations to critically examine and re-imagi
 ne contemporary constructions of visibility and their influence on various 
 aspects of cultural identity. Hosted by the Burnaby Art Gallery\, the work 
 in this exhibition also comes into critical conversation with the history o
 f its environment as the legacy of its previous occupants\, existence as a 
 shared domestic space\, and contemporary methods of collecting provide pote
 nt contributions to discourses on the construction of memory and commemorat
 ion.</p><p>The title <em>Ghostly Makers</em> functions here as a play on th
 e influential text <em>Ghostly Matters: Haunting and the Sociological Imagi
 nation </em>by Avery Gordon. As a critical intervention into the limitation
 s of traditional sociological thought\, Gordon recognizes haunting as a nec
 essary mode for responding to and framing history whereby she describes hau
 nting as a contemporary culmination of previously unspoken responses to opp
 ressive violence. As she explains\, “what’s distinctive about haunting is t
 hat it is an animated state in which repressed or unresolved social violenc
 e is making itself known\, sometimes very directly\, sometimes more oblique
 ly.”<a href="#_edn1" name="_ednref1">[i]</a> Haunting can therefore be unde
 rstood in these artists’ work as the traces of those impacted by erasure\, 
 exclusion\, and other oppressive violence\, who are now given the opportuni
 ty to be seen and heard.</p><p>In a time that is increasingly defined by ou
 r widespread access to information—individuals are today\, more than ever\,
  filling in and interrogating the gaps that western art historical document
 ation leaves behind. In response\, the artists represented in <em>Ghostly M
 akers</em> push individuals to recognize haunting as a combatant to narrati
 ves that seek to locate specific histories\, people\, and cultures as invis
 ible or in the past. Instead\, the language of ghosts functions as an alter
 native lens that imagines otherwise and returns agency to those who have su
 ffered at the hands of erasure\, forced displacement\, and settler-colonial
 ism. Through highlighting these haunting narratives that oppressive structu
 res have sought to suppress\, this exhibition does not attempt to seek reso
 lutions to contain these discourses\, but rather\, looks to unravel violent
  and colonial legacies while weaving threads of resistance throughout narra
 tives of absence.</p><p><strong>Carmen Levy-Milne</strong> (she/her) is an

  object appear when it is no longer familiar?”<br />– Sara Ahmed\, <em>Quee
 r Phenomenology: Orientations\, Objects\, Others</em></p><p>Queertopias beg
 in where the boundaries of the body end. As they are activated by the indiv
 idual’s own movements through space\, Queertopias bleed outside the boundar
 ies of their own making\, immersing themselves into everyday existence to o
 verlap and dispute with what is perceived as familiar\, or “normal.” <em>In
  Search of Queertopias</em> evokes queer intimacy and relationality out of 
 worldbuilding through storytelling\, with the body as the threshold between
  these worlds. Each Queertopia offers a different point of entry to explore
  how queerness pushes beyond a universalized or objective experience\, as a
 n assemblage of diverse and infinite perspectives.</p><p><em>In Search of Q
 ueertopias</em> is an immersive experimentation with feminist theorist Sara
  Ahmed’s methodology of disorientation for how one can explore unfamiliar w
 orlds. This exhibition uses disorientation to allow these digital narrative
 s to both invite and refuse the viewer’s own positionality in order to make
  familiar the complexity and beauty of queer(ed) perspective(s). This exhib
 ition features four artists and a collective—<strong>James Albers</strong>\
 , <strong>Amanda Amour-Lynx</strong>\, <strong>Rylan Friday</strong>\, <str
 ong>Alex Gibson</strong>\, and <strong>Queer Code</strong>—whose works begi
 n in spaces which may appear at first familiar\, but are soon reminiscent o
 f a dream\, or of the uncanny. Each artist uses storytelling tools to guide
  the viewer through unfamiliar\, disorienting\, and dreamlike Queertopias. 
 These spaces are opportunities to encounter personal and intimate experienc
 es which are at once collective and individual.</p><p>Ultimately\, immersiv
 e storytelling opens up new ways of seeing and positioning themselves in th
 e world.</p><p><strong>Nathan (Nate) Clark</strong> (they/ them) is a gende

 a secret anthology that imagines a planet populated by art objects as senti
 ent\, living creatures. Upon this celestial body\, hidden from the human ey
 es\, an alternative order of living unfolds the exhibition: <i>The Book of 
 Imaginary Beings. </i>Taking its title from a book by Jorge Luis Borges\, t
 he exhibition space hopes to become what the book would characterize as: “a
  place filled with beasts\, that children encounter tigers without fear.” T
 hrough the glimmer in the eyes of the Imaginary Beings\, this exhibition in
 vites you to enter into the physical presence of art objects as living crea
 tures. <i>The Book of Imaginary Beings</i> is a group exhibition that featu
 res works by artists Sai Di\, Marcy Friesen\, Woojae Kim\, Josh Steinhauer\
 , and Katayoon Yousefbigloo.</p><p><i>How can we re-encounter art objects a
 s if they are animated\, sentient creatures? How can we create a physical r
 elationship with the sentient beings outside of our own finitude? </i></p><
 p>If it is believed that materials encapsulate memories in physical forms\,
  a constellation of stories will arise from the prism of an imaginary reali
 ty. Experimenting with a variety of material research\, such as mycelium ne
 tworking\, sound vibration\, laser transfer technique\, electro-kinetics\, 
 and sensual archive\, five artists provide us with a glimpse into an animat
 ed sphere in which art objects tell their own stories:</p><p><i>a story by 
 Sai Di that imagines space as a mandala cosmos\;<br /></i><i>a story by Mar
 cy Friesen that shares the paranoia of eating the granny’s poisoned soup\;<
 br /></i><i>a story by Woojae Kim in conversation with </i><i>Seren Bradley
  on listening to the maple forest that covered the downtown area\;<br /></i
 ><i>a story by Josh Steinhauer that alludes a Saskatchewan prairie ghost to
  the ghost of a machine\;<br /></i><i>and a story by Katayoon Yousefbigloo 
 that scavenges the fragmented golden mystery of a never-solved crime. </i><
 /p><p><i><span style="font-weight: 400\;">(how can we enter into an art obj
 ect’s story\, if the story is in itself the material?) (How can we become p
 art of the story before we start to project\, encode\, mystify\, and make i
 t a story of our own?)  (Is it ever possible?) ( thereafter\, how can we co
 -exist?)</span></i></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400\;">In the five stor
 ies that comprise </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400\;">The Book of Im
 aginary Beings</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400\;">\, each work will
  re-emerge as their own storytellers\, intimately embodying sounds\, images
 \, tastes\, consciousness\, and spirits in their physical relations to us\,
  with the hope that our co-existence will become temporal\, energetic\, and
  successive in space.</span></p><p> </p><p><strong>Sai Di</strong> is a Chi

 m which protects and isolates from outside elements\, a solarium presents s
 pace as open to viewing the world yet shut off\; preserving while secluding
 . A place to grow while accepting confinement. A place of comfort to let in
  the right amount of discomfort. An ‘in-between’ space. Conflating two disp
 arate structures\, Francisco Berlanga\, Alex Gibson\, Tiffany Law\, Jesse R

 tertwined aspects of human life.</p><p>Together the artists in <em>Solitari

 an desire to reach out\, yet turn away. Through voluntary isolation\, the b
 ody might find new avenues for growth\, offering room to contemplate confli
 cting modes of resistance and receptivity which entwine to create psycholog
 ical collisions. Much like heat from the sun intensified through an index o

 ers of all kinds are in constant change. Exposed to other natural substance
 s\, matter can change its consistency\, be transformed from solid to fluid\
 , and even be dissolved and seemingly disappear. The surface of any matter 
 is usually particularly vulnerable. Bare and unprotected\, the structure of
  the surfaces of many natural materials and minerals are readily changed an
 d their colours along with this. The constantly changing skin of materials 
 – commonly called patina – is usually regarded\, on the one hand\, as a sig
 n of decay\, deterioration\, and decomposition\, and\, on the other hand\, 
 as the litmus test for dating and suggesting authenticity. Yet such changes
  can produce new aesthetic and visual appeal. This lecture discusses </span
 ><i><span data-contrast="none">fidda</span></i><span data-contrast="none"> 
 (silver in Arabic). Drawing upon medieval literary and visual sources from 
 the lands of Islam\, attention will be paid to the particular merits of </s

 ly\, an emphasis is put on medieval narrations about the natural process of
  the blackening of the surface of </span><i><span data-contrast="none">fidd

 rs as something which is not divorced from the substance nor as an addition
 al external layer. On the contrary\, the blackening on the surface of silve
 r appears as part of the active life of this material. Moreover\, it is sug
 gested that this specific process initiated new aesthetics for working with
  and decorating silver artifacts.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233118":

 for AHVA Emerita Professor Barbara Zeigler’s retrospective exhibition <em>R
 eflection Point</em>\, opening November 1 at 5:00 p.m.</p><p>This exhibitio
 n presents a selection of work Zeigler completed over the past five decades
  broadly focused on the ever-shifting relations between ecosystems and huma
 n cultural structures. Early works from the 1970s dealt with Zeigler’s init
 ial recognition of issues related to environmental degradation. As Zeigler 
 began to more profoundly understand the precariousness of human existence\,
  the importance of appreciating the interrelatedness of all life forms and 
 human actions\, and the delicate balance that must be maintained\, the earl
 y 1980s brought in a more introspective print and drawing phase. Assuming a
  different vantage point to contemplate the many related issues\, the <em>E
 arthmakers</em> project during the 1990s involved a large-scale study and c
 ollaborative print installation undertaken with Joan Smith\, focused on the
  soil fauna inhabiting one square metre of old-growth forest soil on northe
 rn Vancouver Island. These works were followed in the 2000s and 2010s by fu
 rther excursions on land in the interior of BC and by water up the coast. P
 rinted works from this period may be seen in the <em>Fraser River\, Adams R
 iver\, Journey’s Junction\, </em>and the <em>Past Desire Catches the Cloake
 d Present </em>series<em>. </em>More recent works have dealt with concerns 
 such as time and change\, as evidenced in the three-channel video <em>Passa
 ges </em>and the print <em>Change. </em>Both works function somewhat as mes
 merizing metronomes\, setting intervals of time\, reflection points regardi
 ng climate change\, the insufficient proactive action of humanity\, and the
  need for equitable structural change.</p><p> </p><p>Zeigler received her B
 FA in painting and her MFA in printmaking from the University of Illinois. 
 She taught at UBC for forty-one years\, mentoring generations of student ar

  Resources Centre for access to the event recording: <a href="mailto:ahva.v
 rc@ubc.ca">ahva.vrc@ubc.ca</a>.</p><p>Durational water-system practice – ro
 oted in local field investigation\, research\, and knowledge exchange – is 
 important both to a good understanding of the relationship between a place 
 and traditional knowledge\, and to the discussion of the diversity of geo-s
 ocial contexts. This generative practice of art-based research goes beyond 
 the ways in which a natural environment is defined through predictive and c
 onceptual means.</p><p>In this presentation by Cao Minghao\, she will elabo
 rate on the ways in which she and her collaborator\, Chen Jianjun\, ground 
 their work through long term research and find a particular site as the bas
 is of their ecological practice. In their work\, they attest that any place
 \, any subtle details of the water system rhizome\, can become not only a p
 otential method for discussing and exploring deeper environmental issues bu
 t also an impetus to build a mutual alliance among the earth’s ecologies.</

 o and Chen Jianjun. Courtesy of the artists.[/caption]</p><p>Artists and tr
 ansdisciplinary researchers Cao Minghao and Chen Jianjun currently live and
  work in Chengdu. Their art practices are research-based and process-orient
 ed\, highlighting the reciprocal collaboration between the artists and thei
 r partners. Dedicated to the dialogical relationship between the realities 
 and the survival of myriad things\, their practices grow from a space of en
 tanglement in between the material ecology of waters and the current socio-
 environmental realities of humankind. Tapping into this space largely untou
 ched by existent inquiries\, they explore the vicissitude of ecologies and 
 the re-imaginaries of the future. The entanglement space indicates neither 
 a reactionary and passive way to protect water nor a conservative view that
  only emphasizes human society and its survival\, but rather how we can rec
 onstruct our comprehension of the future and countless possibilities betwee
 n material ecology and human society. Practicing multiple visual narrative 
 methods through long-term\, site-specific art making\, they build up a mome
 ntum for the alliance among all beings. Their projects have been shown in e
 xhibitions and at screenings throughout Asia and Europe\, including documen
 ta fifteen in Kassel (2022)\, Rethinking Nature at Madre Museum (2021–22)\,

  First Nations communities on the coast and in the interior of what was to 
 become British Columbia. This weakening of the First Nations allowed the Br
 itish to take firm jurisdiction of the territory. Evidence that the disease
  was weaponized to destroy the power of mainly the Indigenous communities i
 n the north of the province is conclusive. Standard histories of British Co

 >This exhibition brings together genealogical and ecological materials that
  have been passed down in our community\, as a means to trace questions and
  concerns over shared spatial orientations. <em>Who’s Your Daddy?</em> exam
 ines assumed origin points and related lineages that continue to influence 
 current interpretations of local landscapes. This site-specific collaborati
 on with the West Vancouver Art Museum brings together earthly possessions f
 ound in the Historical Objects Collection and Fine Art Collection\, with th
 e artwork of two emerging artists raised in North and West Vancouver: <stro
 ng>Kiana Shahnia</strong> and <strong>Roselynn Sadaghiani</strong>. The exh
 ibition will engage with topics surrounding archival environments\, crossed
  borders\, extracted resources\, mother country manifestations\, and additi
 onal leftovers from home. One of the primary curatorial objectives for this
  project is to increase awareness about the importance of records and artwo
 rks situated in West Vancouver’s municipal archives\, as well as engaging w
 ith the relevance that these collections have to contemporary artistic disc
 ourse. By sharing this space with artists who have grown up and remain conn
 ected to the North Shore\, this exhibit aims to bridge gaps between and inc
 rease access to the diverse histories found here.</p><p><em>With support fr

 [/caption] </p><p>Please join us on Wednesday\, January 24\, for a talk by 
 Professor Emerita Joan M. Schwartz\, “i-Crimes and Misdemeanours: Between a
 nalogue photographs and their digital surrogates.”</p></div><p>Under pressu
 re from administrators\, funders\, and the user-public\, institutions striv
 e to make photographs available online as searchable single items. In the p
 rocess\, the relationship between materiality and meaning is easily effaced
 \, and valuable information about the physical and intellectual contexts of
  creation\, circulation\, and viewing is sacrificed at the altar of speed\,
  quantity\, convenience\, and the almighty dollar. In this lecture\, I poin
 t to examples of those instances for which institutions can justly be accus
 ed of “i-Crimes and Misdemeanours.” With a view to balancing access aims an
 d descriptive affordances\, I raise the distinction between search and rese
 arch\, call for a broader appreciation of photographs as “working objects i
 n their own time” (Frizot)\, and advocate for better "best practices" as a 
 way to bring the in-situ experience of analogue photographs and on-screen e
 ncounter with their digital surrogates into closer alignment.</p><p><img cl

 ou return\, we will talk again</em></strong> is an exploration through the 
 intricate tapestry of migration narratives\, both within and beyond the bor
 ders of South Asia. The exhibition delves into the evolving essence of the 
 region\, transcending political boundaries and examining the complex themes
  of belonging and estrangement. It grapples with the profound sense of disp
 lacement\, whether by choice or circumstance\, and the evolving concept of 
 ‘home’ where it represents not just a place\, but a repository of emotions\
 , connections\, and memories woven into our very being.</p><p>Through the w
 orks by <strong>Bharat Choudhary</strong>\, <strong>Kamesh Bhardawaj</stron
 g> and <strong>Pahul Singh</strong>\, the exhibition reflects on nostalgia\
 , longing\, and yearning to preserve what has been left behind. Within thes
 e works lie the complex politics of belonging\, where individuals and commu
 nities grapple with the ebb and flow of constantly shifting identities. Nav
 igating through these multifaceted narratives\, we confront the ever-expand
 ing and shifting meanings of South Asia(n)\, beyond geographical confines\,
  shaped by growing diasporas and evolving political dynamics. The exhibitio
 n challenges us to confront the enduring legacies of colonialism\, shedding
  light on the intricate intersections of power and displacement\, from inte
 rnal displacement to the far-reaching consequences of climate crises\, whic
 h are exacerbated by profit-driven capitalism and government policies.</p><
 p>At its core\, this exhibition revolves around the concept of “home” impac
 ted by a wide spectrum of experiences. <em>and when you return\, we will ta
 lk again </em>resonates with the voices of those on journeys\, carrying ech
 oes of a quest for “home”.</p><p>This exhibition is part of the 2024 Captur

 ated by Ellinee Rae Nelson</p><hr /><p><em>Claudia Cuesta: Of Being Between
  </em>is the first retrospective look at the Colombian-Canadian artist’s pr
 olific career. Since the 1980s\, Cuesta has integrated multimedia approache
 s to sculpture that reflect interdependent relationships between material a
 nd process. Her contributions are distinguished by dynamic allusions to the
  human body that call into question the nature of the medium. The exhibitio
 n emphasizes her multidisciplinarity\, use of diverse materials\, and embod
 ied processes by bringing together sculptural installation\, painting\, poe
 try\, photography\, and collage.</p><p>In <em>Of Being Between</em>\, Cuest
 a creates textural juxtapositions through combinations of velvet and neon\,
  glass and steel\, canvas and plastic. Her methodology involves meticulousl
 y selecting materials that she activates through a process of deep self-ref
 lection and physically laborious experimentation. She hand-fabricates each 
 work and transposes her internal landscape onto the materials. A reciprocal
  relationship develops over time as she embraces the implications that this
  process has on her own body. Experientially\, this exhibition encompasses 
 and communicates the physical dynamics that imbue Cuesta’s methodology with
 in the space of the gallery.</p><p>Cuesta’s work challenges\, often playful
 ly\, the manufactured belief systems\, power structures\, and technologies 
 that shape our worldviews and identities. Speaking to both the personal and
  collective aspects of embodiment and grief\, Cuesta’s work reveals the flu
 idity between individual and shared experiences. In a time when the boundar
 ies between the personal and the collective are constantly being renegotiat
 ed\, <em>Of Being Between </em>offers an urgent reflection on interdependen
 ce.</p><p><em>Of Being Between </em>is presented with support from the Auda
 in Endowment for Curatorial Studies through the Department of Art History\,

 t Gallery at The University of British Columbia.</p></div></div></div><div

 ic. Paul Wong’s talk will be introduced by Michael Dang\, a PhD student in 
 Art History\, an alumnus of both the Critical and Curatorial Studies gradua
 te program and the BA Art History\, and recent curator of <a href="https://
 www.richmondartgallery.org/unitbruises"><em>Unit Bruises: Theodor Wan and P
 aul Wong</em></a> at Richmond Art Gallery.</p><p>The 2024-2025 Artist in Re
 sidence\, Paul Wong\, will present his multiverse: an interdisciplinary art
  practice that spans fifty years. Celebrated as one of Canada’s pioneering 
 video artists\, Wong has been creating single- and multi-channel works for 
 screens of all shapes\, sizes\, and lengths for festivals\, artist-run gall
 eries\, museums\, community centres\, broadcast networks\, and online platf
 orms.</p><p>In this power hour\, illustrated media presentation\, Wong will
  rewind\, play\, and fast-forward through an eclectic range of past\, prese
 nt\, and current projects-in-progress that will flow from early low-tech an
 alogue experiments to new media explorations\, works on paper\, photography
 \, performance art\, neon sculptures\, and site-specific public art commiss
 ions. He will connect seemingly disparate projects by grounding them in for
 m\, content\, and context as well as his radical body and identity politics
 .</p><p>Parallel to his art practice is his just as prolific groundbreaking
  curatorial exhibitions\, the producing\, facilitating and mentoring of oth
 er local\, national and international artists. He has been at the forefront
  of artist run culture in Canada as a founding director of Vivo Media Art C
 enter (Satellite Video Exchange Society\, 1973)\, a member of the Mainstree
 ters (1972)\, and the founding artistic director of On Main (On the Cutting
  Edge Productions Society\, 1986). Central to his D.I.Y. philosophy is that
  artists have creative freedom of expression by ensuring that they have con
 trol over their own means of production\, exhibition and distribution.</p><
 p>This artist in residency is an exciting and unique opportunity to engage 
 with the AHVA and broader academic community that offers the potential for 
 cross disciplinary collaborations and research. Dr. Wong is a self-taught a
 rtist who considers himself mentored by “community”. In 2023\, he received 
 an Honorary Doctorate of Letters from ECUAD\, Emily Carr University of Art 
 + Design.</p><p>The Artist in Residence Program in the Department of Art Hi
 story\, Visual Art and Theory is made possible by the generous support of a
 n anonymous donor. Past AHVA Artists in Residence have been Beau Dick\, Sta
 n Douglas\, Germaine Koh\, Marianne Nicolson\, and Diamond Point.</p><p>We

 . Offered in English\, this hybrid seminar will combine online preparation 
 with two weeks of intensive field study in Paris. To lay the thematic and m
 ethodological foundations for study abroad\, the course will begin with one
  week of remote engagement with recorded lectures\, readings\, and zoom sem
 inars. Participants will then convene in Paris for two weeks of experientia
 l learning centered on museum visits\, workshops\, walking tours\, and rese
 arch in French collections. Subsequently\, students will have another two w

 s\, and displays of mechanical ingenuity. Evaluating histories of colonizat
 ion\, capitalist spectacle\, and visions of Paris as the "capital of modern
 ity\," we will also consider critical and creative practices of resistance 
 and repair. We will interrogate imperialist claims and elite privileges\, o
 bserving how these are manifest in past and present visual practices\, city
 scapes\, and rituals of art tourism.</span></p></div><p class="text-sm">[bu

  most significant works to date\, particularly those focused on animals\, r
 uins\, and gardens. Akhavan’s practice ranges across site-specific ephemera
 l installations to drawing\, video\, sculpture\, and performance. The direc
 tion of his research has been deeply influenced by the specificity of the s
 ites in which he works\, including the architectures that house them\, the 
 economies that surround them\, and the individuals that frequent them. The 
 concept of the garden—and\, by extension\, the spaces and species just outs
 ide the home\, such as the backyard\, public parks\, and other domesticated
  landscapes—have been foundational components in his work. In recent large-
 scale installations\, Akhavan recreates cultural sites affected by internat
 ional conflicts\, attending to the multivalent ways in which ongoing geopol
 itics fight for control of historical narratives. Through his work\, Akhava
 n engages with formal\, material\, and social legacies that shape the bound
 aries between public and private\, domesticated and wild\, hostile and hosp
 itable.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p><p><span data-contrast=

 The period following the Mongol conquest of Iran in the thirteenth century\
 , that of the so-called Pax Mongolica\, witnessed the emergence of a new vi
 sual language in Persian art and architecture. Various Islamic and non-Isla
 mic visual traditions that permeated the whole body of the arts of thirteen
 th- and fourteenth-century Iran played a pivotal role in the formation of t
 he hybrid style characterizing the art and architecture of the Ilkhanid per
 iod. Operating as an interconnected network of people\, buildings\, and ins
 titutions\, the Ilkhanid city perfectly represents different aspects of cro

 e Web evolves towards the Web 3.0 age\, digital media such as video games\,
  apps\, and the internet have spawned their own forms of culture and means 
 of self-expression. The exhibition<em> Digital Amalgamations </em>brings to
 gether artists Skawennati\, Sondi\, Shaheer Zazai\, Ryker Woodward\, and Lu
 Yang to highlight how each artist's practice is in conversation with the di
 gital landscapes they portray in relation to markers of their own identity\
 , such as race\, gender\, age\, and situatedness.</p><p>Human existence wit
 hin a multitude of digital cyberspaces has blurred the separation between “
 artificial” reality and physical reality. As discussed in Donna Haraway’s “
 A Cyborg Manifesto”\, we are now\, and have always been cyborgs – evolved t
 o become bodies beyond flesh: avatars of ourselves. All five artists in <em
 >Digital Amalgamations </em>explore and re-think what it means to exist wit
 hin contemporary time and space: introducing new modes of creating and expe
 riencing art of various mediums\, while questioning: how do we exist as hum
 ans within digital cyberspaces\, and within our highly digitized times? How
  is the creation of art affected under various socio-political conditions?<
 /p><p>As such\, a re-analysis of how we exist within our contemporary digit
 ized condition is in order\, and to question what it even means to be a bod
 y within the current time. <em>Digital Amalgamations</em> sets out to showc
 ase diverse viewpoints on how artists\, under contemporary social and techn
 ological conditions\, express formations of their identity: exploring the m
 ultiplicities\, (re)imaginings\, temporalities\, and fluidities of the self
 . Visitors are invited to evaluate their own relationships with\, and relia
 nce on digital technologies\, as well as question their preconceived notion
 s of what digital art\, and digital art histories\, can look like.</p><h2 c
 lass="article-subtitle">About</h2><h3 class="article-minor-title">Skawennat
 i</h3><p><a href="https://skawennati.com/">Skawennati</a> investigates hist
 ory\, the future\, and change from her perspective as an urban Kanien’kehá:
 ka woman and as a cyberpunk avatar. Her artistic practice questions our rel
 ationships with technology and highlights Indigenous people in the future. 
 Her machinimas and machinimagraphs (movies and still images made in virtual
  environments)\, textiles and sculpture have been presented internationally
  and collected by the National Gallery of Canada\, the Musée d’art contempo
 rain de Montreal and the Thoma Foundation\, among others.</p><p>Recipient o
 f a 2022 Hewlett 50 Arts Commissions Grant and an Honorary Doctorate from t
 he Minneapolis College of Art and Design\, she is also a founding board mem
 ber of daphne\, Montreal’s first Indigenous artist-run centre. She co-found
 ed and co-directs Aboriginal Territories in Cyberspace (AbTeC)\, a research
 -creation network based at Concordia University\, where she received her BF

 ondi</h3><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/sondi.online/">Sondi</a> (sh
 e/her) is a new media artist from Germany\, born in Cameroon and based in t
 he Netherlands. Her work is deeply rooted in her identity as a person of th
 e diaspora and serves as a conduit to unravel the intricate and intimate la
 yers of identity\, belonging\, ownership\, and heritage. Her artistic proce
 ss centers around worldbuilding\, drawing inspiration from Black science fi
 ction and visionary fiction writers to create virtual environments where me
 mory\, ancestry\, and imagination come into being. In these virtual dreamsc
 apes\, she explores new modes of being\, using the power of radical imagina
 tion.</p><p>Sondi builds worlds primarily through immersive 3D videos engin
 eered with game engines that continuously navigate between virtual and phys
 ical spaces to investigate the intersection of technology and culture. By e
 xamining how popular media constructs and disseminates images and ideas\, h
 er work challenges dominant cultural narratives that shape our perceptions 
 of ourselves and others. Her body of work reflects on the interplay between
  our corporeal\, spiritual\, and digital selves and spans a diverse range o
 f mediums\, including game design\, audiovisual performance\, theater\, mus
 ic\, film\, and education.</p><p>Her work and collaborations have been exhi
 bited at museums\, galleries and media art festivals such as Stedelijk Muse
 um Amsterdam (NL)\, Dutch Design Week (NL)\, Brakke Grond Amsterdam (NL)\,

 tudio practice both in painting and digital media. Zazai received a BFA fro
 m OCAD University in 2011 and was artist in residence at OCAD University as
  part of the Digital Painting Atelier in 2015.</p><p>Zazai’s practice focus
 es on exploring and attempting to investigate the development of cultural i
 dentity in the present geopolitical climate and diaspora. The digital works
  revolve around Microsoft Word and imagery reminiscent of traditional Afgha
 n carpets. Through mimicking carpet-making methods\, Zazai creates his own 
 designs in Microsoft Word\, where every knot of a carpet is translated into
  a typed character. While the digital is a process based exploration\, the 
 paintings have been an internal investigation into vulnerability and fear.<
 /p><p>Over the years Zazai’s material vocabulary has expanded into textile 
 work\, site-specific public art installations and video works with his lens
  becoming self-reflective. Some of his recent notable exhibitions include a
  solo exhibition at the Agha Khan Museum in Toronto\, Latcham Art Centre\, 
 Patel Brown Gallery\, Owens Art Gallery. Zazai is currently part of a group
  exhibition at Govett-Brewster Gallery in New Zealand and has an upcoming s

 me is “Rethinking Patrimony\, Restitution\, & Repatriation: New Pathways & 
 Puzzles in Native Cultural Heritage.” Our panels of academics\, graduate st
 udents\, museum professionals\, and Indigenous experts will present papers 
 and scholarship that examine particularly novel or creative approaches to t
 he repatriation of Indigenous belongings\, as well as the unique challenges
  or obstacles that arise in repatriation efforts across North America. Eman
 ating from diverse disciplinary and cultural backgrounds\, presenters discu
 ss case studies and speculative research\, as well as legal loopholes and c
 urrent debates. In addition to scholarship that explores the return of phys
 ical belongings\, possessions\, and remains\, our panelists propose notions
  of repatriation that include the reunification of music\, literature/langu
 age\, land\, and intellectual property or intangible knowledge.</p><p>Keyno
 te speakers:</p><ul><li>Dr. Trevor James Bond\, Interim Dean of Libraries\,
  Washington State University</li><li>Nakia Williamson\, Director\, Nez Perc
 e Tribe Cultural Resource Department</li></ul><p>Join our gathering to shar
 e your own expertise and make cross-cultural connections\, generate lively 
 dialogue\, and incubate solutions\, while considering questions such as:</p
 ><p>How does federal legislation (or lack thereof) help or hinder repatriat
 ion? ● How do we approach objects with contested histories or descendants? 
 ● Who determines the validity of repatriation claims? ● How do definitions 
 of property\, ownership\, and stewardship differ across communities? ● What
  alternative modes of repatriation exist? ● How effective are long-term loa
 ns\, 3-D printing\, and commissioned replicas? ● What does the afterlife of
  repatriated objects look like? ● How are humour and celebration\, as well 
 as solemnity and sadness\, intertwined with repatriation?</p><p>Please see 
 <a href="https://www.audainsymposium.com/home">audainsymposium.com</a> for 
 information related to registration\, keynote speakers and presentations\, 
 and a schedule of events\, including meals and entertainment that are open 
 to the public on May 15 and 16\, 2025 at the University of British Columbia
  Vancouver campus. <strong>Registration required\, closes on May 1</strong>

 gy </em>highlights selected works by the Anishinaabe artist that confront c
 olonial silencing\, alienation\, and violence inherent in the commodificati
 on of land\, Indigenous bodies\, and material culture. Each work represents
  Belmore’s response to colonial dynamics of specific places and events. Det
 ached from their original circumstances these objects present the possibili
 ty of insight into the present context of the colonial legacy of the Museum
 .</p><p>As part of this exhibition\, four works\, from different periods in
  Belmore’s career\, will be displayed throughout MOA’s galleries and existi
 ng exhibitions. Taken together\, these installations critically engage with
  dominant understandings of value as defined by contemporary social structu
 res and colonial institutions such as MOA.</p><p>The exhibition speaks to B
 elmore’s assertion of a relational system of value within her Indigenous co
 mmunity\, prompting visitors to consider and\, perhaps\, redefine “value” i
 n terms of their own relations to land\, water\, objects\, colonialism\, an
 d\, ultimately\, to each other.</p><p>A member of the Lac Seul First Nation
  on traditional Anishinaabe territories in Northwestern Ontario\, Belmore r
 oots her work in the political and social realities of Indigenous communiti
 es. She lives and works in Vancouver. The artist’s work has been exhibited 
 locally at the Polygon Gallery\, Audain Art Museum\, Grunt Gallery\, and Va
 ncouver Art Gallery\; nationally at the Art Gallery of Ontario and National
  Gallery of Canada\; and internationally in the United States\, Mexico\, Cu
 ba\, United Arab Emirates\, Germany\, Greece\, Japan\, and Australia. A rec
 ipient of many accolades\, she was most recently recognized with the 2024 A

 e AHVA Graduate Symposium Committee has selected mimetic representation as 
 the theme for this year’s symposium. A foundational concept in art-historic
 al discourse\, the terms “mimesis” and “representation” are often associate
 d with imitation and realism\, and inevitably raise questions about the rel
 ationship between an artwork and the objective “real world.” As a cornersto
 ne of art-historical inquiry\, mimetic representation has long served both 
 to define the parameters of interpretation and to reinforce Eurocentric fra
 meworks within cultures that maintain distinct representational value syste
 ms. Our modus operandi is to create a forum for charting novel approaches t
 oward a more inclusive and transhistorical history of art for the twenty-fi
 rst century. During the selection process\, we intentionally kept the theme
  open-ended—without restrictions on geography or period—to bring together a
  diverse group of graduate students from our own department and across Nort
 h America.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false\,"134233118":fals

 anadians know about photography\, and when did they know it?</span></i><spa
 n data-contrast="auto"> Some years ago\, Langford set out to answer that tw
 o-part question. Her first surprise was the tenor of the discussion as news
  of the inventions began to circulate in 1839. Photography seemed to be ant
 icipated in British North America and taken up as fit for purpose. Its leng
 thening chain of improvements matched the colonial will to progress—a forwa
 rd-looking momentum continuously and locally reframed.</span><span data-ccp
 -props="{}"> </span></p><p><span data-contrast="auto">Reading the territory
  through that lens changes the terms of the investigation. The technology q
 uestion—</span><i><span data-contrast="auto">how</span></i><span data-contr
 ast="auto">—becomes a lot less interesting than detective fiction’s </span>
 <i><span data-contrast="auto">why</span></i><span data-contrast="auto">—the
  motive and opportunity that produced a photograph. Who wanted it? Even the
  most speculative endeavour has an imagined end-user. What problems might p
 hotography solve? The </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">why</span></i><s
 pan data-contrast="auto"> question widens the field of participation\, lead
 ing us to rethink subjecthood in photographic themes we take for granted: p
 eople\, places\, events\, and objects. The </span><i><span data-contrast="a
 uto">why</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> question has staying power b
 ecause it has been asked and re-asked every time the photograph has moved h
 ouse. </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">Why</span></i><span data-contras
 t="auto"> keep it?—a question all too frequently answered by carrying the m
 ute excess to the curb. </span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p><p><sp
 an data-contrast="auto">Langford’s three-volume answer to the initial quest
 ion is a narrative shot through with counter-narrative. Point by counterpoi
 nt\, it plots a throughline of photographic activity on these lands and wat
 ers. This introductory lecture will draw on all three volumes as a sharing 
 of discoveries and demonstration of methodology—browsing\, with a view to t
 he particulars.   </span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p><p><b><span

SUMMARY: Festina Lente – Canadian Premiere

 th="493" height="658" /></a></p><p>The film <em>Festina Lente</em> – “Make 
 haste slowly” – takes its inspiration from the very Latin adage and uses co
 ntemporary visual language to reinterpret the enduring spirit of the Renais
 sance. Filmed across Florence\, Naples\, Palermo\, Istanbul\, and London\, 
 the film blends documentary realism with artistic narration to tell the per
 sonal journey of executive producer\, writer\, and presenter Roy Yu. He liv
 es by <em>Festina Lente</em> as a life philosophy — integrating it into his
  daily life\, travels\, aesthetics\, and the cultural dialogue between the 
 East and the West that he champions fervently. The film invites viewers to 
 reflect on the relationship between ‘beauty’\, ‘time’\, and ‘life’\, and to
  rediscover the importance of ‘slowing down’ in a fast-paced modern world. 
 The production received support from the Italian Ministry of Culture and th
 e Direzione Regionale Musei Nazionali della Toscana\, in collaboration with
  leading cultural institutions such as the Museo de’ Medici and the Museo d
 i San Marco.</p><p>The screening will be followed by a panel discussion fea

 se techniques often require tension and force. However\, once that tension 
 is released\, they result in a soft\, pliable material—much like the body\,
  which undergoes strain and yearns for relief. </span><span data-ccp-props=

 an exhibition presented by the <a href="https://slowfashion.ubc.ca/">Slow F

 of the annual Slow Fashion Season\, hosted at the University of British Col
 umbia. In the 2026 edition\, the cluster bridges the gap between new textil
 e and material research and its subsequent presentation on the runway. The 
 idea of the Lab begins before you enter the gallery space—in the laboratori
 es and studios of UBC cluster members and beyond the university. It decente
 rs the focus on clothing\, suggesting new possible futures within the texti
 le and fashion industries. Material researchers are currently pioneering su
 stainable methods of manufacture for new\, durable fibres and fabrics\, yet
  much of it is little known by the wider public.</p><p><span data-contrast=

 ng a corpus of over 500 published satirical images and over 70 items of pop
 ular and panoramic fiction\, Desplanque tracks the emerging and evolving tr
 ope of the starving artist across multiple political regimes. Through an an
 alysis that marries the trope's shifts and fluctuations with structural uph
 eavals in Paris' art world\, Desplanque excavates the lost voices of Parisi
 an artists as they protested the impacts of structural change on their mate
 rial livelihood and creative production. Desplanque's scholarly voice strad
 dles the material and the intellectual\, and through personal narrative\, m
 aterial explorations\, and memories of serendipity and whimsy\, they weave 
 the experience of research into the storytelling of its findings.</span><sp

  intuitive pathfinding\, Meyer uses her experience of chronic illness to di
 srupt normative ways of being in and moving through the world. The veins of
  inquiry she traces and follows aim to recover the queer aesthetics\, polit
 ics\, and subjects often effaced within histories of disability\, feminism\

  of Art History\, Visual Art and Theory at the University of British Columb
 ia and Martyn Golding.</p><hr /><h3 class="person-name">Yihk Qu Chan</h3><p
 >Yihk Qu Chan (Canadian\, b. 1997) unpacks the cultural and sociopolitical 
 systemic traumas she has inherited as a second-generation Hong Kong-Canadia
 n settled within the tensions of colonial legacies. Her research looks at i
 ntergenerational immigrant relations and the invisibility of Asian labour u
 nder Western hegemony\, while her studio practice centres the intimacy of t
 he personal and explores how the materialization of time through ritualized
  art-making may soften the delineations between one’s memory\, the present 
 and their imagination of the future. Yihk Qu\, an Anglicized namesake\, is 
 a textual synthesis of her identities as Natalie Chan and 易翹—a pairing of c
 haracters which come together to mean “to exchange the meaning of excellenc
 e\,” and reflect an ethos defined by a desire to seek what transformative p
 otentials can be found through translating across cultural borderlines. She
  holds a BFA from Simon Fraser University\, co-founded the local Vancouver 
 arts collective Withintensions and continues to enjoy educating\, illustrat
 ing and tattooing alongside her conceptual work.</p><hr /><h3 class="person
 -name">Violet Johnson</h3><p>Violet Johnson (American\, b. 1999) is a mixed
  Native and Euro-American artist\, a member of the Hoopa Valley Tribe and a
  Yurok descendant. Johnson’s analogue photo-sculptural practice directly en
 gages with bodies of waters along the Pacific Northwest Coast from Washingt
 on to California as a means of tracing significant sites and memories of he
 r personal and familial histories. By directly engaging with gathered water
  from significant sites – rivers\, lakes\, ocean\, creeks and taps\, water 
 takes on a form of mark-making and storytelling. <span class="TextRun SCXW1

 ><h3 class="person-name">Amanda Kachadoorian Jordi</h3><p>Amanda Kachadoori
 an Jordi (b. California\, 1995) is an interdisciplinary artist based in Van
 couver\, whose practice examines global migration\, bureaucratic systems an
 d cross-border identities through sculptural installation\, photography\, p
 rintmaking\, painting and video performance. Jordi investigates how bureauc
 racy shapes everyday existence\, drawing on familial and personal experienc
 es of migration through systems of governmental control and cultural exchan
 ge\, while continuously navigating those systems and examining how the body
  and psyche is formed through surveillance\, movement and in-betweenness. J
 ordi holds a BA in art practice from the University of California\, Berkele
 y and was artist-in-residence at Bread&Salt in Barrio Logan\, San Diego (20
 19). Her work has been exhibited internationally\, including solo exhibitio
 ns at the Ahoi Galerie in Altstadt Luzern\, Switzerland (2024) and Oceansid
 e Museum of Art\, California (2021). Her work was featured in <em>New Ameri
 can Paintings</em>\, Pacific Coast Issue #163 (2023).</p><hr /><h3 class="p
 erson-name">Nevada Lynn</h3><p>Nevada Lynn (Canadian\, b. 1973) is an inter
 disciplinary Red River Métis artist of mixed European ancestry whose work e
 xplores Indigenous resurgence\, relational care\, and visual storytelling t
 hrough research-creation and material practice. She holds a BFA from Emily 
 Carr University of Art + Design\, where she has taught\, and her work has b
 een exhibited nationally and internationally. She is the recipient of the L
 ieutenant Governor’s Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Arts (2024) a
 nd the Fred Herzog Award for Visual Art and Community Engagement (2025). Ly
 nn lives and works on the shared\, unceded territory of the Skwxwú7mesh and
  Lílwat Nations in Whistler\, British Columbia.</p><hr /><h3 class="person-
 name">Scott Massey</h3><p>Scott Massey (Canadian\, b. 1971) is an interdisc
 iplinary artist whose work connects specific inherent material qualities to
  concepts of deep geologic and astronomical time/spacetime. Using an experi
 mental methodology while often incorporating subverted apparatus in the dev
 elopment of his work\, Massey posits an “astro-material poetics” as the fou
 ndation of his practice. He accentuates and amplifies phenomena\, heightene
 d through artificial means or slight manipulations\, proposed in speculativ
 e formations of precarity. Through a combination of considered material sel
 ection\, industrial fabrication processes\, artisanal craftsmanship and res
 trained gesture\, Massey’s works endeavour to engage deep-time references a
 longside our comparatively transitory lifetimes. Massey holds a BFA in phot
 ography from Emily Carr University\, and has exhibited in solo and group ex
 hibitions across Canada.</p><hr /><h3 class="person-name">Golriz Rezvani</h
 3><p>Golriz Rezvani (Iranian Canadian\, b. 1980) is a multidisciplinary art
 ist whose practice spans painting and drawing\, with a recent focus on inst
 allation and bread as a central material. Her work examines bread as both a
  medium and a domestic social artifact. Working with installation and ready
 made forms\, she transforms this culturally loaded material through acts of
  marking\, erosion and alteration. Her practice engages questions of gender
 ed labour\, care under conditions of inequality and the politics embedded i
 n acts of nourishment and deterioration. Rezvani holds an MFA from Azad Uni
 versity\, Tehran and a BFA from Soureh University\, Tehran. Rezvani has par
 ticipated in numerous juried and solo exhibitions and has worked as an inst
 ructor at Emily Carr University and Vancouver Film School. She is a recipie
 nt of a 2024 SSHRC Graduate Scholarship.</p></div></div></div></div>

 an inaccessible past. However\, in a digital world where surveillance\, ext
 raction\, and alienation are intensifying and increasingly dominated by the
  rise of artificial intelligence\, the term “digital ruin” warrants reexami
 nation. Early visions of the digital space imagined freedom\, autonomy\, an
 d direct engagement\; however\, this vision has been replaced by today's di
 sappointing and overwhelming reality. We are actively living in a “digital 
 ruin.”</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false\,"134233118":false\,"
