Summary:
Canada's foremost architectural office Kuwabara Payne McKenna Blumberg Architects, founded in 1987 in Toronto, is one of most innovative architectural offices in North America today. They have made a name for themselves both for their integrated design process embodying collaboration with experts, clients and future users as well as the diversity of aesthetically refined and finely detailed designs. The work ranges from cultural institutions such as the Toronto International Film Festival and Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis to ecologically innovative concepts such as Manitoba Hydro Place in Winnipeg. A respectful approach toward the integration of heritage buildings is also a characteristic feature, illustrated by the designs for the Royal Conservatory and the Gardiner Museum in Toronto. Finally, educational and research facilities are a strong focus in KPMB's work, exemplified by campus projects in in Waterloo, Toronto, and Montréal, as well as future projects for the MIT and Princeton.

Over the past few years Marcel Dzama's drawings have been attracting considerable attention. His odd mutant figures, with their ambiguous relationship to other figures, objects and situations, are infused with a radiant innocence and an idiosyncratic sense of humour far removed from other strategies that have fueled artmaking over the past decade.

Summary:
Over the past few years Marcel Dzama's drawings have been attracting considerable attention. His odd mutant figures, with their ambiguous relationship to other figures, objects and situations, are infused with a radiant innocence and an idiosyncratic sense of humour far removed from other strategies that have fueled artmaking over the past decade. In this most comprehensive publication on Dzama's work to date, Patten examines the seminal evolution of Dzama's idiosyncratic approach to drawing between 1996 and 2001. Referring to Mikhail Bakhtin's concept of grotesque humour and the carnivalesque, he demonstrates how each drawing is an amalgam of allusions to 20th century popular culture. With an introduction by Wayne Baerwaldt, director of the Power Plant. Originally from Winnipeg, Marcel Dzama has had numerous solo exhibitions, notably at the Los Angeles Invitational Biennial, Richard Heller Gallery of Santa Monica and Sies + Hoke of Dusseldorf. He has also exhibited widely as a member of the Royal Art Lodge, most recently at New York's Drawing Room.

Summary:
Artist and educator Lionel LeMoine FitzGerald (1890–1956) was the only member of the Group of Seven based in Western Canada. Some Magnetic Force is the first collection to gather the surviving writings by the Winnipeg artist. Spanning from 1930 to 1954, the texts gathered here begin during the mature period of his artistic development at age forty and conclude with personal reflections late in life on the nature of art and his career. Michael Parke-Taylor has uncovered and chronologically organized FitzGerald’s letters, diary, lectures, and reports to show how FitzGerald understood the development of his practice, communicated the philosophy of art to his art students, confronted challenges in his career, as well as revealing his spiritual aspirations, views about the natural world, and his private desires. These writings also elucidate the material and reputational realities of artistic production in places beyond the period’s dominant Canadian art centres of Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa.

Summary:
Research on multifamily housing and its impact on the daily lives of ordinary people, from a leading Canadian architectural firm. These four slipcased volumes build on 5468796 Architecture’s housing manifesto "Add via Edit: A Decade in Housing", the symposium "platform.MIDDLE: Architecture for Housing the 99%" hosted at Illinois Institute of Technology and examples by practice-related offices. The work and research of the Winnipeg-based firm 5468796 Architecture (described as "one of the most talented young design firms worldwide") has focused on "missing middle" and midrise housing in its many forms and ownership models, from refugee and social housing to market-rate condominiums. With the condominium boom taking hold across North America, the number of residential units passing across architects’ desks is unprecedented. As a result of the typology’s inherent repetition and potentially banal program—as well as the private sector’s pursuit of profit, often at the expense of quality and livability—the margin in which architecture can operate is very narrow. Architects must respond to the challenges of this typology with the rigor it deserves.
