Alongside, authors consider case studies as diverse as the anti-war work done by John Lennon and Yoko Ono in Montreal and Toronto, recent exhibitions of activist art in Canadian institutions, radical films, performance art, protests against the Olympics, interventions into anti-immigrant sentiment in Montreal, and work by Iroquois photographer Jeff Thomas. Taken together, the writings in Imagining Resistance touch on the local, the global, the national, and post-national to imagine a very different landscape of cultural practice in Canada.

Résumé:
In the mid-1980s, the Canadian art group General Idea created a symbol using the acronym AIDS, arranging the letters in a manner that resembled Robert Indiana's famous LOVE logo. This launched Imagevirus, a project of paintings, sculptures, videos, posters, and exhibitions that investigated the term AIDS as both word and image, using the mechanism of viral transmission.(...)

Like Philip Guston's "Poor Richard" drawings, the figures in Jason Logan's paintings are variations on an allegorical character: a man somewhere between a captain of industry and prospector, panning for gold along the cold line between the United States and Canada.(...)

However the images convey respectability that is fraying and desperate. Logan's shabby magicians, hopeful gold diggers, greedy oilmen and gentlemen loggers illustrate the eternal pairing-off of reason and nature, set in the Canadian Pacific northwest.

Résumé:
Governor-General award winning architect Jeremy Sturgess recently celebrated thirty years in practice in Calgary, where he has been based his whole career. During that time, Sturgess has made a major contribution to transforming the architectural face of the city, from individual houses to large-scale public projects such as the Calgary Water Centre, the Grand Theatre, and Calgarys most recent downtown LRT stations. This publication provides a comprehensive and multifaceted examination of Sturgesss architecture and urban design, and assesses his contribution to Canadian architecture generally and Calgary architecture in particular. Editor Geoffrey Simmins has gathered perspectives from a number of individuals with whom Sturgess has enjoyed long-term professional relationships - an artist, an urban designer, an architect colleague, an architectural critic, and a journalist. Along with reflections on Sturgesss personality, philosophy, and creative growth, these contributors provide in-depth discussions of a number of Sturgesss most celebrated projects. Simmins himself has drawn on Sturgesss papers and several personal interviews to craft an insightful introduction to the volume. Illustrated with architectural line drawings and with photos by photographer Robert Lemermeyer.

Résumé:
“In The Hunting Field is a collection of encounters that uses the figure of the hunter-trapper as a figurative and literal approach for looking at contemporary understandings of animal, nature, and environment in an ecological age where entities collide at scales massively distributed in space and time.” The figure of the hunter-trapper is used to draw attention to a significant intertwining with the biological world that shapes bodies and technology. It is not meant as an exhaustive signifier for a linear history but instead as an opportunity to survey encounters that shape these understandings and so inform our place in the world. Perhaps a reinterpretation of environmental aesthetics can provide openings for alternate shapes of future encounters…

Résumé:
In the guise of diva Miss Chief Eagle Testikle, Kenneth Monkman takes camp aesthetics to new extremes of political disturbance. Setting queer against straight, and both these against his dual identity as a Canadian of Cree descent, Monkman aka Miss Chief revisits the way key events in North American history have been represented. Recent performances and installations featured outlandish versions of objects like Indian moccasins in museum displays, videos with tragicomic takes on Indians' as the other to colonists, and Monkman's own extraordinary paintings. Based on masterpieces of landscape and history art, these expose the repressions and fantasies grounding narratives of the winning of the West. Interpellations will be of exceptional interest to art historians and all those concerned with North American aboriginal civilization. Essays from acclaimed art historians Richard Hill, Jonathan Katz, and Todd Porterfield address issues central to Monkman's activity: among others, absurdist tactics, alternative models of time and history, the interplay of identity, sexuality, and sovereignty. A camp design with gilt-edge pages and ultra-rich color illustrations makes this book an ideal vehicle for presenting Miss Chief's rampages through art history.

They set up a storefront building in which they housed their own unique brand of café / art shop / community centre / music venue called All Citizens from 2007-2011. McCarroll kept a blog called Going Rural of her travels and experiences moving and setting up shop. This blog (text and photographs) forms a significant chapter of the All Citizens art book and serves as an introduction to Saara Liinamaa’s essay on rural interventions. The documentation (in text, interviews, and photographs) of the artistic practice of three local senior women formed McCarroll’s MFA thesis project in the Documentary Media Program at Ryerson and constitutes another significant chapter. Cartoonist David Collier visits one of these women in Bruno and provides a comic essay in his own style. Also contributing is artist Jason McLean. But the heart of the All Citizens project was the store itself, a meeting place, shop, cultural centre, music venue and all things in between. It was the ultimate culmination of a DIY aesthetic forged onto a rural landscape. Includes Bonus CD: Daniel, Fred, and Julie: Live at All Citizens.
