Summary:
Il s’agit d’une bande dessinée qui aborde les enjeux environnementaux et sociaux provoqués par le « Plan Nord ». Sous une forme ludique et faussement naïve dont l’aspect pourrait rappeler un bestiaire, ou un herbier, l’auteur propose un voyage à travers les différents environnements naturels, humains et spirituels de ce nord que ce projet titanesque, décrit comme « le chantier d’une génération », est en train de transformer à tout jamais. Pour les illustrations, l’auteur compte utiliser la technique du collage et se servir principalement de morceaux de sacs de poubelles noirs ramassés dans les réserves amérindiennes de la Basse Côte-Nord situées à proximité du vaste complexe hydro-électrique La Romaine.

Summary:
Le travail de Jim Verburg - photographie, vidéo, art imprimé, installation et écriture - brouille de façon subtile la complexité des rapports romantiques et familiaux. Dans ce livre, Verburg se penche particulièrement sur le potentiel formel du cercle et de la ligne, à la fois comme célébration esthétique de la forme et comme possibilité qu'a cette dernière de représenter les idées du tout et du soi. Se déplaçant entre l'image, l'objet et l'idée, cet ouvrage explore comment la pensée, l'intention, voire le sens, se négocient dans les relations personnelles et interpersonnelles.

Summary:
Depuis 2004, l’artiste québécoise Olivia Boudreau allie performance et vidéo dans un corpus qui s’accomplit dans la durée et la répétition en explorant des notions du visible. En mettant à contribution le plan fixe, un cadrage serré et une économie de mouvements, et plus récemment l’interactivité de la narrativité, ses installations et performances en direct proposent une expérience temporelle et perceptuelle captivante pour le spectateur. Ce premier ouvrage illustré sur son travail comprend des essais des historiens de l’art Christine Ross et Eduardo Ralickas qui discutent de temporalité, de matérialité et de réception dans sa pratique ainsi qu’un long entretien entre l’artiste et la commissaire Michèle Thériault.

Summary:
Letters profiles Canadian artist Michael Morris during the period between 1964 and 1971 with a particular focus on his relationship with concrete poetry, considered to be among the first global art movements, springing up in South and North America, Japan and Europe. Artist, educator, and curator Michael Morris has been a key figure in the West Coast art scene for more than four decades. His interest in concrete poems underlies his desire to develop the relationship between one medium and another—this was a period in which his work shifted from primarily painting to photography, sculpture, performance, and video. Artist, educator, and curator Michael Morris has been a key figure in the West Coast art scene for more than four decades. His interest in concrete poems underlies his desire to develop the relationship between one medium and another—this was a period in which his work shifted from primarily painting to photography, sculpture, performance, and video. Letters, a series of six painted triptychs executed in the late 1960s that form the basis of this book, embody this interdisciplinary thinking. Incorporating vertical mirrors, they were imagined not only as objects in themselves, expressing the pivotal role light plays in painting, but also as ‘props’, before which a dance performance might take place.

Summary:
Through a series of comprehensive contextual essays The Beaver Hall Group: 1920s Modernism in Montreal interweaves the work of this pioneering artistic collective within a broader narrative of the arts in the first half of the twentieth century. Exploring the groups’ greater role in the modernity of Canada—and more specifically the cultural context of Montreal—the book takes on core themes such as the rise of the metropolis, juxtapositions between economic progress and cultural development, and the impact of gender on critical approaches to both artists and their work. The Beaver Hall Group: 1920s Modernism in Montreal sits alongside a major exhibition and is published in partnership with the Montreal Museum of Fine Art.

Summary:
They've been called cheeky pranksters but the immersive environments created by the artistic collective lampoon consumer culture with a razor-sharp wit. BGL's exhibitions have included the staging of an ornamental tree factory, a bonfire and a flea market; and their urban carousel made from security fences and lampposts joyously greeted visitors at MASS MoCA's 2012 exhibition, Oh Canada. Through their ingeniously-crafted installations, BGL repositions cultural ephemera and unique sculptures in new and thought-provoking ways, often requiring viewer engagement and always to general delight. This in-depth examination of BGL's practice accompanies the world premiere of their new work, Canadassimo, created especially for 2015 Venice Biennial, where the collective is representing Canada.
