Summary:
This volume presents an overview of the Canadian collective oeuvre—an oeuvre still haunted by Miss General Idea, a fictive character who was at once muse and object, image and concept. Founded in Toronto in 1969 by Felix Partz, Jorge Zontal—both disappeared in 1994—and AA Bronson, the trio adopted a generic identity that "freed it from the tyranny of individual genius."(...)

This volume presents an overview of the Canadian collective oeuvre—an oeuvre still haunted by Miss General Idea, a fictive character who was at once muse and object, image and concept. Founded in Toronto in 1969 by Felix Partz, Jorge Zontal—both disappeared in 1994—and AA Bronson, the trio adopted a generic identity that "freed it from the tyranny of individual genius." Their complex intermingling of reality and fiction took the form of a transgressive and often parodic take on art and society. Treating the image as a virus infiltrating every aspect of the real world, General Idea set out to colonize it, modify its content and so come up with an alternative version of reality.

Installées à l’intérieur ou à l’extérieur, ses constructions à grande échelle font référence à l’architecture. L’artiste aménage les espaces, construit des réceptacles ou des parcours dans lesquels déambule le spectateur. Se fondant sur l’expérience vécue et les espaces qu’elles habitent, les œuvres deviennent ainsi des objets fortement relationnels. Elles suscitent généralement l’intérêt et l’engouement du public, ainsi qu’un large consensus auprès des critiques et du monde de l’art. L’auteure Katrie Chagnon parcourt les vingt-cinq années de pratique de l’artiste. en mettant à profit ses compétences de théoricienne de l’art, son expérience dans le monde de l’édition en art contemporain et sa connaissance intime du travail de Alexandre David – dont elle suit le travail depuis plusieurs années –, elle propose une analyse approfondie des oeuvres du sculpteur tout en dégageant les diverses problématiques théoriques soulevées par l’approche de la sculpture et de l’installation. Faisant appel aux notions théoriques les plus courantes, elle nous conduit ainsi dans une plus vaste exploration des enjeux de la sculpture actuelle et de l’art d’aujourd’hui.

Summary:
Michael Snow is one of Canada?s greatest living artists, widely acknowledged as one of the most significant figures in twentieth-century Canadian art. "Early Snow" focuses on the nascent stages of the artist?s career?- which is comparatively underexamined in art commentary and critical literature- ?and demonstrates how wide-ranging were his achievements in painting, drawing, sculpture, foldage, cinema, and photography. Snow?s first achievements may serve as a blueprint for his later career, but they also give ample proof of the creative heights he had already reached by the age of thirty-three. This book reveals a young man whose catholic interests in art and literature contributed to his uncanny ability to create profoundly original works of art. Perceptive essays by James King argue that these artworks are best approached in the context of Snow?s knowledge of modern European art (Paul Klee, Ben Nicholson, Alberto Giacometti) and contemporary American art (Willem de Kooning, Conrad Marca-Relli, Donald Judd, Marcel Duchamp), and that, ultimately, the work created during this era is about transformation.

Thing Co. was a Vancouver-based conceptual art group run by copresidents Iain and Ingrid Baxter. The 'company' acted as a vehicle that interrogated art, domestic systems, corporate strategies and everyday life through the use of photography, information technology and installation-based works. Due to N.E. Thing Co.’s small runs, this work is particularly scarce. Originally published in an edition of 500, this facsimile second edition makes Companies Act accessible for the first time in over 40 years.
