Summary:
Award-winning documentary maker John Paskievich has made his name making films about places and people throughout the world. His films made for the National Film Board have chronicled groups as different as young Czechs trying to be North American Indians, the impoverished Roma community in Slovakia, and an isolated group of Orthodox Russians on the Canadian prairies. As a filmmaker, his work has been shown at film festivals throughout North America and Europe, including the Cannes Film Festival and the Toronto Festival of Festivals. In "The North End", Paskievich returns to his first love, photography. His lyrical black and white photographs chronicle a community closer to home, the iconic Winnipeg neighbourhood in which he grew up. Winnipeg’s North End is the great Canadian melting pot, the place "north of the tracks" that welcomed waves of immigrants from central and eastern Europe at the turn of the last century. It is a place that spawned some of Canada’s greatest cultural events and personalities, from the Winnipeg General Strike to the Guess Who. Paskievich captures the vibrancy and conflicts of the North End and other urban spaces like it, places where history, poverty, and resilience come together.

Summary:
To commemorate the official opening of the Inuit Art Centre, now named Qaumajuq, Winnipeg Art Gallery director and CEO, Dr. Stephen Borys, set out to share the story of this extraordinary museum and building project. His book, Journey North: The Inuit Art Centre Project, traces the history of the centre beginning with the establishment of the Winnipeg Art Gallery in 1912, when the foundation was laid to support a diverse and far-reaching mission that could embrace both historical and contemporary artmaking on national and international levels. By the time director Dr. Ferdinand Eckhardt arrived at the gallery in 1953, and discovered Inuit stone carving at the Hudson’s Bay Company department store located across the street from the WAG, the idea of assembling a collection to celebrate this Indigenous art form moved closer to reality. This account of the development of the Inuit Art Centre includes different historical and contemporary perspectives and voices through a compilation of texts and images. In addition to the key essay by the book’s author Stephen Borys, several writers from across the country have shared their stories about the gallery, the Inuit art collection, and the building project.

Summary:

From this inauspicious starting point the firm would grow to become, by the 1950s and 60s, a major player on the Canadian architectural scene: the largest architectural office between Ontario and British Columbia, with seven offices in four provinces. GBR was a hub for partnership and training, and was a pioneering force in its inclusion of women and members of Canada's diverse cultural communities within the field of design. Covering a wide range of individual buildings and practitioners, this book explores the significant mark GBR made on its hometown and across the country, as well as the firm’s role as a leader in the growth of Modernist architecture in Canada.
