Those images reveal something of a place, a sensibility and a harsh light that together probe to the core of the Canadian experience. The images formed the basis of an exhibition, The Lethbridge Project, at the Southern Alberta Art Gallery. Now, they have(...)

Those images reveal something of a place, a sensibility and a harsh light that together probe to the core of the Canadian experience. The images formed the basis of an exhibition, The Lethbridge Project, at the Southern Alberta Art Gallery. Now, they have been married with the words of Rudy Wiebe to present a vision of the very soul of Canada, and of that Prairie experience which has so informed recent Canadian fiction. Rudy Wiebe offers an accompanying set of brief stories that draw on many layers of history as well as his personal memories to evoke the sense of place that is Lethbridge.

Résumé:
"What precedes architecture?" Architect-artist Malgorzata Maria Olchowska (°Bartoszyce, 1982) investigates how personal and collective memories influence our view of the built environment. According to Olchowska, there is no limit to the resilience of cities: "Cities go up and down, we see that now with the war in Ukraine or with the earthquake in Turkey and Syria. Urban(...)

"What precedes architecture?" Architect-artist Malgorzata Maria Olchowska (°Bartoszyce, 1982) investigates how personal and collective memories influence our view of the built environment. According to Olchowska, there is no limit to the resilience of cities: "Cities go up and down, we see that now with the war in Ukraine or with the earthquake in Turkey and Syria. Urban districts that are now in ruins will sooner or later be rebuilt." The book is built around a text by Vlad Ionescu (Faculty of Architecture and Art, PXL/UHasselt) in which he reflects on Olchowska’s work, from 2009 to today. This is supplemented and illustrated by means of a visual essay in which Olchowska shows her work of the last five years.

But the oft-told history of the house overwrites Farnsworth’s role as Mies’s collaborator and antagonist while falsely portraying her as the architect’s angry ex-lover. Nora Wendl’s audacious work of creative nonfiction explodes the sex-and-real-estate myth surrounding the Edith Farnsworth House and its two central figures. An eminent physician and woman of letters, Farnsworth left a rich trove of correspondence, memoirs, and photographs that Wendl uses to reconstruct her voice. Farnsworth’s memories and experiences alternate with Wendl’s thoughts on topics like misogyny and professional ambition to fashion a lyrical examination of love, loneliness, beauty, and the search for the divine.

How do we relate to the spaces we inhabit? What happens when home shifts from “everyday” to “one day,” from accumulation to loss? How is memory bound to place, and what persists when a place itself withdraws? “Home” emerges through the accumulation of time condensing lived experience into a sense of belonging and continuity.

Résumé:
How do we relate to the spaces we inhabit? What happens when home shifts from “everyday” to “one day,” from accumulation to loss? How is memory bound to place, and what persists when a place itself withdraws? “Home” emerges through the accumulation of time condensing lived experience into a sense of belonging and continuity. In domestic interiors, everyday routines leave traces that accumulate into a personal archive, while memories become inseparably attached to the places we inhabit. When “home” ceases to be a site of return and instead becomes a transient condition, continuity disperses. Memory no longer accumulates in one place but fragments across spaces that disappear from everyday life. Each departure marks a rupture, as a place passes irreversibly into the past.

The critically acclaimed project celebrated the communities around Montreal’s Boulevard Saint Laurent and contributed to the eventual designation of "The Main" as a Canadian heritage landmark. In 2017, to celebrate the city’s 375th anniversary, the author was invited to re-imagine the original book. Returning to his former neighborhood, his new book weaves old and new photographs with texts and archives, inviting us on a journey into his creative process to reflect on questions of home, identity, time, memory, and the evolving urban landscape, and asking: in a globalized world where people and cities are in constant movement, what happens to places and memories? Can we go home again?

Italian photographer Luca Campigotto takes us from the canyons, deserts and coal-mining ghost towns of the American West to Idaho’s large auto cemeteries, to the Bronx and other industrial fringes of New York City, to a town in Montana whose brick architecture is reminiscent of Edward Hopper’s paintings. The solitude of the wild frontier and the distance of the urban periphery alternate between dazzling daytime lights and mysterious nocturnes. Each photo is accompanied by short poetic notes—a journey of personal memories which echo literary and cinematographic works—serving as an evocation of some American topoi, above all, the timeless myth of “on the road” traveling.
