Summary:
Innovative textile-based artwork exploded across the Canadian Prairies in the second half of the twentieth century. Melding craft traditions with modern and modernist movements in art and theory, a diverse body of creators opened a beautiful new chapter in textile art. "Prairie Interlace" brings together some of the most important scholars of art and craft in Canada to examine the work of forty-eight artists working with textiles from the 1960s to 2000. Recapturing and recording lost histories, this book explores both artists working with textiles and centres of textile study and production, paying special attention to the contexts in which artworks were produced. Indigenous scholars, experts in textile techniques, and experts in Prairie textile history provide fascinating insight into an artistic movement which, until now, has been largely overlooked.

Summary:
Pivot is a new peer-reviewed graduate academic interdisciplinary journal involving the Departments of Art History, Studio Arts and Communication Studies. The Journal is produced out of Concordia University, which presents a unique site for the exploration of interdisciplinarity within the humanities, where the disciplines of Art History, Studio Arts and Communication Studies are continually negotiating shared and divided scholarly territories. Taking our cue from journals that combine art making and academic writing, such as Afterall and LTTR, Pivot recognizes art production as a site for scholarly exploration, and accepts content in the form of academic papers, artist project descriptions, short texts by artists, and image based proposals. Pivot’s unique print format reflects this dual engagement by combining book arts practice with academic journal production.

Summary:
In the global marketplace where so much design is cookie-cutter and sameness prevails, it is timely to consider the work of Thor Hansen (1903-1974). Today, Thor Hansen is little known but from the mid-1950s to the end of the 1960s, the Danish émigré was a popular artist, designer and tireless promoter of the craft movement in Canada. He carried out his mission via corporate industry, independent of government support. Largely self-taught, he completed his most important work as art director for the British- American Oil Company. This book accompanies an exhibition at the Textile Museum of Canada.
