Résumé:
Publication d’une exposition construite autour d’une œuvre monumentale intitulée Vanités. Faite de l’image numérisée de dizaines de miroirs abîmés, cette œuvre imposante ouvre une brèche dans le regard, invité à s’y projeter, mais ne retourne forcément aucune image, mis à part ce que le spectateur y trouvera. Cette pièce centrale est accompagnée de paysages altérés par l’artiste. Ces manipulations donnent lieu à des nocturnes menaçantes dont les détails se confondent avec la tache. Encore une fois, Nicolas Baier encourage l’apparition de formes précises à partir de sensations vague. Cette publication, co-éditée avec le Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec et le Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art, accompagne une exposition itinérante nationale. En français et anglais.

Résumé:
The work of Angela Grauerholz occupies an important place in Canadian and international photography. From the 1980s on, her search to redefine the art of photography has taken various forms including portraits and interior and exterior scenes with or without people. Yet regardless of the subject, her work gives an impression of timelessness with images that are both commonplace and sublime. This retrospective publication covers twenty years of production and highlights Grauerholz’s major photographic and installation works. Three critical essays discuss the work in relation to time, memory and representation.

Résumé:
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.
