Animal Magnetism unites these interests in a panoramic installation of 100 black and white television sets with over painted screens. \nThe interplay between indistinct video sequences glimpsed through screens of painted talking heads\, and a generic audio track\, generates an effect similar to “snow.” Staged in this manner\, television becomes a source of light and sound and a surface on which images freeze\, rather than endlessly replacing one another. The viewer surveying this scene becomes the principal actor and provider of content.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Rhythm\, repetition and the ceremonial framing of pictorial motifs presented content as enacted\, rather than simply represented. Through the inclusion of paintings by Jane Ash Poitras (Chipewyan\, Edmonton)\, the exhibition brought a new critical context to works by Nova Scotians Charlie Murphy and Frances Dorsey.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16533″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Apart from a performance by Monique Moumblow at the opening and documentary videos during the show\, spectators encountered objects that generate “situations” without further intervention by the artists.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16529″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

The illustrated catalogue described approaches to art education in the respective public school systems. Marking the first year of the Art Education program offered by MSVU in association with NSCAD\, the Exchange was accompanied by several public events. \nThis was an overwhelmingly popular show\, supported by government and corporate sponsors. Acting as curators were Dr. N. Webb\, Prof. B. Maycock\, Dr. M. Nagamachi\, & Prof. H. Okada.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16525\,16526″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

A graduate of NSCAD\, Kim Dawn works in performance and installation formats. Her installation in the library vitrines combined soft sculpture and make-up to produce an effect described by Glynis Humphrey as “visceral … unspeaking yet threatening.” \nSupported by Canada Council Programming Assistance.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Her small constructions in plaster and photo-collage incorporated photographs of herself performing apparently mundane gestures. Presented in series\, these icon-like objects evoked complex inner states. \nA major proponent of women’s artmaking in the 1970s\, Lake gave a well-attended talk on the new work.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16518″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

By accentuating the Art Gallery’s resemblance to a port shed\, their installation prompted viewers to experience it as scene rather than place — a theatre for the creation of fictions.

The latter suggests that artists continue to rethink and re-use post minimal idioms via subsequent developments in feminist critical theory and art practice. Contingent placed the work of two contemporary Canadian women in the context of American postminimal art making of the 1960s and 70s. The Gallery was honoured to be able to present several small sculptures by Eva Hesse\, which are ordinarily very difficult to borrow. \nA public panel discussion including curator Ingrid Jenkner\, the artists and a representative of the Eva Hesse Estate\, New York\, introduced the unexpectedly contested issue of feminism in abstract art practice.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16453\,16452″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

The physical means used to evoke a complex subjectivity place her work in the post-minimalist tradition of Jackie Winsor and Eva Hesse — influential sculptors of the 1960s and 1970s.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16402\,16401″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Sixty-one drawings represented almost fifty years of artistic production. The exhibition afforded insights into the artist’s process of planning his paintings\, revealing uses of point-of-view and scenic blocking reminiscent of cinema.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16410\,16409″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Marsden Hartley and Nova Scotia

This exhibition\, organized by Gerald Ferguson\, brought together for the first time the drawings and paintings which Hartley did in Nova Scotia as well as the significant drawings and paintings he did about this province after he returned to the United States. This work was based on two periods he spent in 1935 and 1936 with the Mason family in the Lunenburg County fishing community of Eastern Points. Their isolated existence and dangerous occupation is revealed in paintings expressing the artist’s immense grief at the tragic drownings of the Mason sons.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”16390\,16391″ display_title_caption=”true” layout=”3″ masonry_style=”true” item_spacing=”default” gallery_style=”2″ load_in_animation=”none”][divider line_type=”No Line”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
