Résumé:
Non seulement Serge Tousignant appartient à une lignée d’artistes d’exception, mais son parcours impressionnant et sa pratique originale ont eu un impact important sur l’histoire et le milieu de l’art canadien. Le présent ouvrage examine la relation particulière que Tousignant établit entre sa pratique artistique et celle de l’exposition. Il vise à contextualiser des oeuvres significatives au moment de leur mise en vue, tout en offrant une étude approfondie sur l’histoire des expositions du Canada. L’essai de Mona Hakim et l’entretien de Jérôme Delgado analysent divers enjeux conceptuels et esthétiques alors que l’essai de Marie J. Jean étudie près d’une vingtaine d’expositions dans le parcours de cet artiste afin de comprendre comment celles-ci ont représenté un laboratoire de recherche stimulant.

Résumé:
Call Ampersand Response is a collaborative artwork made through an exchange of images via email. Between 2011 and 2017 Canadian artists Michael Dumontier and Micah Lexier conceived this activity as a way to share with each other their mutual interest in found images, line drawings and used books. The starting image was a circle on a rectangle; every subsequent image was visually connected to the previous one. It was understood from the outset that they had to use images that could be scanned from physical items they already had at home (no images from the internet), such as children's books, technical manuals and assorted ephemera. The call-and-response nature of the enterprise can be appreciated in the pairs of facing pages that present themselves as you go through the book. This second edition, expanding on the Nieves edition of 2013, includes the entire project of 196 exchanges that make up Dumontier and Lexier's clever, competitive, meandering conversation.

Résumé:
Jahresring 65 is specific to Fogo Island, an island of approximately 2,500 inhabitants located off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. A centuries-old cod-fishing settlement, the community’s livelihood was almost devastated in the mid-twentieth century due to industrial overfishing. The island is now experiencing profound social, economic, and cultural transformation, due in part to a recent series of art, social, business, and asset-based community development initiatives. Now, Fogo Island stands as an example of the potential (but also the contradictions) of contemporary alliances between art, design, and social entrepreneurship.

Résumé:
Catalogue de l'exposition présentée au Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal du 24 mai au 3 septembre 2012. Contemporary art has recently taken a particular interest in the animal world - not surprising given current debates on the evolution of natural history and the unprecedented ecological upheavals taking place in the natural world. This publication offers an opportunity to re-examine just what shapes our experience and understanding of nature and animals through mythology, natural science, ecology, ideology and, increasingly critically, the economy. Twenty artists from Canada and around the world question the place accorded animals and nature in today’s universe. With essays and illustrations presented and organized to remind the reader of a natural history manual, the book reads as an encyclopedia of ideas about animals and their relationship to humans and to art.
