The Unvarnished Truth:
Exploring the Material History of Paintings
MCMASTER MUSEUM OF ART
ART GALLERY OF ALBERTA, EDMONTON AB – Apr 30-Sep 18, 2016 While much of our world con-
tinues to promote a bottom-line, ends-overmeans reality, it is comforting to know that we
still have artists and scientists to remind us that
what we see is often only the surface of things,
that if our eyes really knew what they are looking
at, they would thank our brains for telling them.
In The Unvarnished Truth, that surface is painting.
Conceived by McMaster University’s Brandi
Lee MacDonald, The Unvarnished Truth brings
together experts in applied radiation sciences,
biomedical engineering, conservation and forensic art history to examine the material bases of
nine historical paintings from the McMaster
Museum of Art collection. The result is new narratives, new layers of meaning.
Of note in this exhibition is the project’s
thoughtful and far-reaching selection of works,
which range from 16th century portraits to 20th
century constructivist abstractions. In one example, viewers are treated to the chemical breakdown of Jan Gossaert’s Untitled, Portrait of a Man
Circle of Jan Gossart (called Mabuse),Unknown, portrait of a man (circa 1520). Here, we learn that the painting has
(c. 1520), oil on oak panel [Art Gallery of Alberta, Edmonton AB, been scanned by an Olympus Innov-X Delta Premium model handheld XRF, and that the sitter

imagery and symbolism have influenced human creativity across time and
cultures; Thru Sep 18 JUNO Tour of
Canadian Art, past JUNO award winners and nominees have each selected
a work of art from our collection that
resonates with them personally or
artistically, celebrating the 2016 JUNO
Awards and Calgary’s Year of Music by
pairing great Canadian music with great
Canadian art.

MATERIAL GIRLS Contemporary Calgary, Calgary, May 26-Aug 21
Some 25 national and international women artists examine
ideas surrounding the construction of the feminine, gendered
space and capitalist desire. The wide-ranging works in this
ambitious group show also explore material processes, the
nature of the decorative and notions of excess, contributing to a
visually dynamic and space-filling display of colours, patterns
and textures. The effect challenges our conception of the art
gallery as an austere white cube.
DARIAN GOLDIN STAHL: MRI IN USE Alberta Printmakers Gallery
and Studio, Calgary, Jun 10-Jul 16 Based on the research, experience and MRI scans of the artist’s sister, a bioethicist diagnosed
with multiple sclerosis, artist Darian Goldin Stahl has created
an immersive installation that speaks to illness, medical science
and the vulnerable human body. A mood of anxiety pervades
these works, which include a series of life-sized images of hospital gowns, printed on silk and hovering, delicate and ghostlike,
in the darkened gallery.
CARRYING ON Alberta Craft Council Discovery Gallery, Edmonton,
Jun 18-Jul 23 This group exhibition features bags, pouches and
other cultural containers created by contemporary First
Nations artists of Alberta. It celebrates the recent flowering of
indigenous cultural expression in the province and speaks to
both tradition and innovation in the forms, motifs and materials
employed. The idea of a bag or a container is itself a powerful
metaphor as a means of carrying ideas and beliefs forward into
the future.
G’DDY UP! Newzones, Calgary, Jul 9-30 An energetic and goodhumoured tribute to the Calgary Stampede and its impact on
civic identity, G’ddy Up! riffs on cowboy culture and the idea of
the Wild West. Exhibiting artists, who include Joe Andoe,
Dianne Bos and Jeff Nachtigall, bring fresh and lively interpretations to enduring themes and images, and demonstrate that the
nostalgic longing for the simple life of old is not at all simple.

BEAUTY’S AWAKENING Art Gallery of Alberta, Edmonton, Jul 23Nov 13 Subtitled Drawings by the Pre-Raphaelites and their Contemporaries from the Lanigan Collection, this touring exhibition
from the National Gallery of Canada stresses the significance of
the drawing medium in Britain during the Victorian era. Artists
represented include Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Holman
Hunt and John Everett Millais, and the subjects range from the
isolated human figure, either nude or clothed, to imaginative
renderings of Medieval and Renaissance scenes.

HALLIE FORD MUSEUM OF ART, SALEM OR – Jun 4-Aug 28, 2016 This major retrospective of paintings
and prints by Royal Nebeker (1945–2014) includes pieces that have never before been exhibited. Nebeker
was a preeminent Northwest painter, a skilled printmaker and influential arts educator based in Oregon for
40 years; he also served two terms on the
Oregon Arts Commission from 2006–14.
Nebeker’s paintings are defined by an
intense personal vision. Throughout his
career, the prolific artist focused on psychological themes in dramatic figurative oil
paintings and sensitive works on paper,
using still life and floral subjects in watercolour and as monotypes. The exhibit
includes work from as early as the 1960s to
the most current pieces painted shortly
before his passing.
Being of Scandinavian descent, fondness for Norwegian culture is evident in his
work. The artist completed postgraduate
studies at the prestigious National School of
Fine Arts in Oslo, as well as a residency at
Edvard Munch’s Ekley studio.
In Nebeker’s elusive paintings, a nexus Royal Nebeker, Blue Bike (2013), oil on canvas [Hallie Ford Museum of Art,
of relationships exist that draw from the Salem OR, Jun 4-Aug 28] Collection: Sarah Nebeker
power of memory, history, dreams and
experience. Words, quotes and notations, often written in other languages, appear like streams of thought;
collage elements materialize in the form of ticket stubs, handbills and other printed material from his travels,
further obscuring a sense of time, place and meaning in his dynamic canvases.
Together this multiplicity of elements is filtered into otherworldly scenes, often grand in scale, creating
a metaphorical place on the cusp of emotional and physical realms. Allyn Cantor

Kirsty Templeton Davidge: Hole-And-Corner
PETER ROBERTSON GALLERY, EDMONTON AB – Jun 23-Jul 12, 2016 Although her CV dates back to
2012, Templeton Davidge’s paintings suggest an artist who has been around forever. A 2015 graduate of
the University of Alberta’s BFA program, she is
the recipient of numerous awards and scholarships. As for her paintings, they are as numerous
and as varied as one would expect of an artist in
her prime.
Born in Toronto and now living in Edmonton, Templeton Davidge is a memory artist who
appears aware of the facts of her past, but is
especially interested in their “after-image.” On
her website she says this of her paintings: “Some
are inspired by childhood memories of driving
back and forth along Toronto area highways in
the 1970s. Always moving forward, but never
arriving at a comfortable place.”
In large-format oils like Second Saturday
(2015) and Second Sunday (2015), we see the
highway as a child might have seen it from a car
window. But it is in a more recent portrait such
Kirsty Templeton Davidge, 3 Buttons (2016), oil on canvas [Peter
as WASP (2016) and a still life such as 3 Buttons
Robertson Gallery, Edmonton AB, Jun 23-Jul 12]
(2016) that we experience the recesses of these
memories in the form of folded and wrinkled clothing. Michael Turner

Clay Ellis: The Third Stake
ESPLANADE ART GALLERY, MEDICINE HAT AB – Jul 2-Aug 20, 2016
Clay Ellis, Near the Glenmar (2008), acrylic on canvas [Esplanade Art Gallery, Medicine Hat AB, Jul 2-Aug 20]
The title of Ellis’ current exhibition of polychrome and resin abstract paintings and sculptures is taken
from his “remembrance” of Leo Tolstoy’s How Much Land Does a Man Need? (1886). In Tolstoy’s story, a
peasant anxious for more land enters into a business deal that allows him as much land as he can stake off
before sunset. But as the peasant deliberates on where to place his third stake, he begins to come
unhinged.
Ellis’ exhibition is by no means a literal representation of Tolstoy’s story. Instead, it provides evidence
of an interior state common to those for whom abstract form, not narrative figuration, best expresses our
modern condition. For Ellis, this condition is conveyed through “images that allude to the distinct views
on land use held by each of the six generations associated with the family ranch in southern Alberta.”
Like his 2005 Eight Miles of Barbed Wire exhibition, whose title is based on the (literal) distance
between the first telephone in southern Alberta and the station to which it was connected, the works in
the Third Stake also hinge on distance – be they the placement of forms at opposing ends of the canvas,
or, if stacked one atop the other, the time it takes each preceding form to settle in and dry. Michael Turner

KELOWNA ART GALLERY, KELOWNA BC – Apr 16-Jul 10, 2016 Among the many modern art tendencies to emerge in the 1960s, one that is often overlooked is Photo-Realism. At first glance, this style of
painting could be mistaken for an attempt by its practitioners to confront the 20th century ascendance of photography in the making of the new art. But the longer one spends with a David Hockney
or a Gerhard Richter, the more
one learns about both media, to
say nothing of the act of looking.
Throughout his long career,
John Hall has produced a number of acrylic paintings that
could be described as PhotoRealist. However, where Hall
differs from Richter or Richard
Estes is on the subject of genre.
If Richter is known for his
“blurred” portraits, and Estes for
his New York streetscapes, Hall,
like Audrey Flack, is known for
his still lifes.
There are a number of still John Hall, Muñeca (1992), acrylic on canvas [Kelowna Art Gallery, Kelowna BC, Apr 16-Jul 10]
lifes in Travelling Light that
bring to mind the pop cultural studies of Flack, though some are focused on single objects. One is
Orbit (2009), a 12 x 12 foot painting of a chocolate donut. At first glance, the eye is drawn to the light
glowing on the donut’s sugary surface, but when one looks twice, it is the subject’s amber shadow
that draws us closer. Michael Turner

Behind the Lines: Contemporary Syrian Art
PENTICTON ART GALLERY, PENTICTON BC – Jul 8-Sep 11, 2016 For a while last year, Syria was everywhere – online, on TV, and, most importantly, on our minds. The only places Canadians were not seeing Syria was in our art galleries. But the Penticton Art Gallery has changed that.
In what is billed as “the largest exhibition of contemporary art from Syria in Canadian history,” the
PAG, in conjunction with the
Cyrrus Online Gallery of
Damascus, presents over 100
artworks by 20 artists. “The
purpose of this exhibition,”
writes PAG director/curator
Paul Crawford, “is to introduce
to the western world a crosssection of contemporary Syrian
artists from the established to
the emerging, both male and
female, and have them share
their personal stories and the
stories of their communities
back in Syria today.”
While some might think
Penticton an unlikely place for
such an auspicious exhibition,
Omran Younis, Untitled (2014), mixed media [Penticton Art Gallery, Penticton BC, Jul 8-Sep 11]
think again. “For the past two
years," says Crawford, "the Penticton Art Gallery has endeavoured to tell the stories behind the headlines of the people living in countries where the Canadian military has been engaged.” Indeed, last year
the gallery presented the Kabul Art Project, an exhibition of drawings and paintings by 27 contemporary
Afghan artists, alongside Canadian War Artist Program participant Allan Harding Mackay’s controversial Gift of Conscience. Michael Turner

cultural heritage and the economy. In her Two Rivers show,

AIMÉE HENNY BROWN: FUTUR SIMPLE/FUTUR ANTÉRIEUR The
Reach Gallery Museum, Abbotsford, May 5-Sep 4 This exhibition’s
fantastical, collage-based works draw on popular culture images
from the mid-20th century, when society was immensely optimistic about the future, and ideas surrounding technological
advances, space exploration and interplanetary travel loomed
large in the public imagination. Aimée Henny Brown asks us to
pose these now-antiquated notions of the future against our
contemporary anxieties about the non-sustainability of our
over-consuming and planet-destroying ways.

IRA HOFFECKER: BERLIN IDENTITIES Sidney and Gertrude Zack
Gallery, Vancouver, Jun 2-Jul 3 The making and mapping of place
and the shifting of civic identity through time are themes that
run through this series of mixed-media works focused on
Berlin. Ira Hoffecker’s creative process of building up and sanding down his painted surface echoes the historic processes of
construction, decay, demolition and rebuilding. It also serves as
a metaphor for memory, forgetting and “coming to terms with
historic events.”
Ira Hoffecker
WHERE/BETWEEN Equinox Gallery, Vancouver, Jun 4-Jul 9 Guestcurated by Pantea Haghighi, where/between spotlights five expatriate Iranian artists whose works employ “the bridge” as a concept, a visual motif or a metaphor. Their forms and media range

include the disjunctions that occur through migration, with its
challenges to ideas of place and cultural identity.

PICASSO: THE ARTIST AND HIS MUSES Vancouver Art Gallery, Vancouver, Jun 11-Oct 2 Much of the Picasso myth is composed of
his relationships with the beautiful women who served as his
mates, lovers and models. This exhibition explores the inspiration he drew from six of them and their impact on his groundbreaking art. Through paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures, the exhibition looks at the lives and personalities of Fernande Olivier, Olga Khokhlova, Marie-Thérèse Walter, Dora
Maar, Françoise Gilot and Jacqueline Roque.
JOE FAFARD: RETAILLES Burnaby Art Gallery, Burnaby, Jun 24-Aug
28 One of Canada’s most beloved artists, Joe Fafard is represented in this show by his experiments in laser-cut and welded
metal sculpture, together with embossed and woodcut prints.
Retailles is a French word meaning scraps or leftovers and refers
here to the cut-out pieces of metal that are a by-product of the
laser process. The artist recycles these forms into new assemblages, reconfiguring negative space as positive.

RYLAND FORTIE: CHATROOM PARANOIA Kamloops Art Gallery,
Kamloops, Jul 2-Sep 3 The twelfth annual Curator’s Choice
exhibition spotlights the work of Thompson Rivers University
graduate Ryland Fortie. His multi-media installation makes reference to virtual social spaces found on the Internet. Video,
sculpture and faux objects, such as plastic fruit and plaster body
parts, suggest the blurring of lines between the virtual and the
physical, and examine the impact of that phenomenon on social
interactions.
SUSAN MENZIES: WALLY DOGS Kelowna Art Gallery, Kelowna, Jul
9-Oct 16 “Wally dogs” is the colloquial Scottish term for the
Staffordshire dog figurines that were often found on the mantelpieces and window sills of 19th-century British homes. Calgary-based artist Susan Menzies paints small, evocative portraits of these porcelain dogs, using them as a vehicle for exploring not only material culture, markers of class and the shifting
values of collectibles but also child labour in Victorian England.
THE ART OF DR. SEUSS Pendulum Gallery, Vancouver, Jul 11-30
Most of us associate Dr. Seuss, a.k.a. Theodor Seuss Geisel,
with The Cat in the Hat and his 43 other extraordinary children’s
books. Less known is his successful career as an editorial cartoonist and commercial illustrator in the 1920s through the
1940s, and also his independent ventures into drawing, painting
and sculpture. This engaging exhibition features examples of
his wide-ranging art across nearly seven decades.

Chino Otsuka: Arrival
NIKKEI NATIONAL MUSEUM, BURNABY BC – Jun 11-Sep 4, 2016 Otsuka is best known for a 2005 project
entitled Imagine Finding Me, where the artist digitally montaged photographs of her adult self with those
of her childhood self. What makes
this series more than a gimmick is
Otsuka’s ability to convince the
viewer of a liminal space between
ascribed relationships (mother,
daughter, sister, aunt) and those
we achieve throughout the course
of our lifetime (friend, teacher,
student, client).
For her current exhibition,
inspired by a 2014 residency at the
Nikkei archives, the UK-based
Otsuka has produced an immersive
multi-channel installation that
combines new photographs with
those of young Japanese women
who came to Canada as “picture
Chino Otsuka, Arrival (2016), photograph with archival image (NNM 2001-28-2-4: A picture
brides” in the early 20th century. bride photo of Kinori Oka, Nikkei National Museum) [Nikkei National Museum, Burnaby BC,
Also included are the personal Jun 11-Sep 4]
belongings of four of these brides.
As with Otsuka’s earlier work, Arrival succeeds in the creation of a new space, one that “capture[s] the
time of anticipation, hope and adventure” that these young women experienced as they left home for parts
unknown, but also its darker side of disappointment and, invariably, hardship. Making this work particularly relevant to younger audiences is how similar the “picture bride” phenomenon is to what is presently
available through social media marriage sites the world over. Michael Turner

Mending a Tear in an Aboriginal Drum
When a client brought me this West Coast First
Nations drum, I had to do considerable testing
and research before coming up with a treatment
plan. The drum is made of deer hide, a material I
didn’t have a great deal of experience with, and is
decorated with acrylic paint. The drum had hung
in the home of my client for some time, but with
fluctuations in humidity and temperature, the
hide had split, resulting in the large tear.
The piece had been made by their nephew and
was for display purposes only. Their main concern
was the final appearance, and they assured me that
the drum would never be played. With this in mind,
I tried to establish a restoration method that would
result in the best appearance without compromising
the materials used by the artist. The artist had decoFirst Nations deer hide drum with tear, pre-treatment
rated the drum with acrylic paints, and I felt that
using some modern materials would be acceptable.
The first step was to bring the edges of the split close enough together that they could be bridged
with another material. The large flap of hide that had broken away from the main body of the drum
had become very stiff and the edges had begun to curl, making this task difficult. With humidity, heat
and weights, I slowly coaxed the flap into a flat surface and brought it closer to the main edge. At this
point I was able to secure the two edges closer together using a fine material that bridged the back of
the two edges with an adhesive that would be unlikely to react to environmental fluctuations.
The next step was to hide the approximately
1 to 2 cm gap that still remained between the
two edges. The drum had a very specific texture
that could not be mimicked with the regular
gesso fill methods. Instead I chose a very fine
Japanese tissue that had a similar colour to the
original deer hide. I cut the paper to match the
gap between the two edges and applied it to the
existing material. Once the base matched, I was
then able to paint with acrylics to connect the
areas of design that were missing.
This treatment took me out of my comfort
zone as a conservator and challenged me to
think about working with new materials. The
juxtaposition of traditional materials and techniques and modern acrylic paints was also
important to consider, as I endeavoured to
respect the original methods and intent of the
artist. My client was also very pleased with the
result and reported that the drum is back in its
original location.

Jeremy Borsos: Immaculate Debris
DELUGE CONTEMPORARY ART, VICTORIA BC – Jun 17-Jul 16, 2016 It’s impossible to be pithy when
describing Borsos’ rather mysterious body of work, but thematically, certain characteristics stand
clear: nostalgia, printed materials, mass production, ephemera, analysis, the acts of cataloguing and
resurrection. Referred to as archive art, this work is a saddening spectacle of remnants from times
passed, including elderly concert tickets, decaying photographs and home movies. This is poetry.
Borsos explains: “The exhibition includes a large (48 x 4 feet) vitrine work…containing several
hundred objects that are from distant eras. The objects are rather arcane and for this exhibition are
displayed in pairs … so really
you are seeing about a hundred
and fifty objects repeating –
rather than three hundred
unique "things"…. I hope the
work, when it is successful,
nuances the various platforms
… to describe the language of
history/events and the process
of memory loss, as opposed to
the convention of what we
remember.”
Borsos divides his time
between Mayne Island, BC and
Jeremy Borsos, The Great Aims Society (2015), video still [Deluge Contemporary Art, Victoria
Athens, Greece, and, in addiBC, Jun 17-Jul 16]
tion to developing his extensive
collections, he also experiments with art books, architecturally-based projects and film. There will be
at least two films included in this exhibit, The Great Aims Society and Drive By. Borsos’ short films are
narrative driven and culled from his archive of found footage, consisting primarily of anonymous
home movies filmed between 1933 and 1959. Christine Clark
inventory of paintings by Canadian,
American and French masters of the
20th century, as well as all members of

Damian Moppett
CATRIONA JEFFRIES GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – May 6-Jun 25, 2016 Moppett is among a generation
of Vancouver artists who will be forever associated with an important 1997 exhibition at the Morris
and Helen Belkin Art Gallery. The exhibition, entitled 6: New Vancouver Modern, featured works in a
variety of media, genres and styles by Moppett, Geoffrey Farmer, Myfanwy MacLeod, Steven Shearer,
Ron Terada and Kelly Wood, all of whom have gone on to establish dynamic practices.
Of those who emerged from the 6 show, it is Moppett who explored the most media – from drawing and painting, to video and music, to ceramics and sculpture. While many of these explorations
continue to reference iconic artists like Alexander Calder and Anthony Caro, the past few years have
seen Moppett make
the studio both the
subject and the context of his work.
Moppett’s current
exhibition of abstract
paintings and sculptures is inspired by a
photograph of Alan
Jarvis burning the
“rejected” paintings of
David Milne at Six
Mile Lake, Ontario in
Damian Moppett, Figure Ground I, Figure Ground II (2016), oil on canvas diptych [Catriona Jeffries Gallery,
1939. Here, the studio
Vancouver BC, May 6-Jun 25]
as a site of creation is
exchanged for Nature as a site of destruction, an inversion that brings to mind the photo-conceptual
project of fellow 6 artist Kelly Wood who, in an effort to best “represent” the excesses of the capitalist
mode of production, eventually replaced candy with garbage as her subject. Michael Turner

Sand Wan: Guei Hou
VIRIDIAN GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – May 12-Jun 23, 2016 Born in Hong Kong in 1949, Sand
studied design before settling into commercial practice. After moving to Richmond, BC in the
1990s, the self-taught photographer deepened his commitment to the medium. Last year, the
Richmond Art Gallery mounted an exhibition of
Sand’s photographs of Finn Slough, a seaport
community that Sand describes as having
“unimaginable and primitive beauty that is both
simple and compelling.”
In his first Vancouver exhibition, Sand presents
a series of works whose title might be that of a seaport in Xinbei, Taiwan. If the source of the title is
uncertain, that is the intention. According to curator Sen Wong: “Looking at Sand Wan’s photographs is a negotiation between what you see versus what you know. Solely looking at the images,
one may pick up hints of the actual subject here
and there, but with no specific title to refer to, the
viewer is free to experience his/her minds' abstractions and compositions.”
Most noticeable in Sand’s black and white photographs is a lack of human presence, but also the
artist’s technical ability. Are these photos taken
from a satellite? Are they microscopic close-ups of
a beach rock? Or are they the result of something

Practical Art History or
Confessions of a Fine Art Appraiser
BY JIM FINLAY
FINLAY FINE ART
FinlayFineArt.com
Chapter 52. The Case of the Recalcitrant Rembrandt
My client told me that he had inherited the painting on
the left from a recently deceased German relative and
that he remembers seeing the painting as a child. Au verso of the painting in cursive script are the words “Rembrandt Orig. 1631” and the remains of a label. He did
not know anything else about it and wished to have it
appraised for fair market value.
As most art historians will tell you, historic paintings
often take on a life of their own. They exist over time,
are hesitant about revealing their true age, have distinct
personalities, are nomadic, and sometimes deliberately
mask their origins and the nature of their true character
and identity.
This perception, I think, could be applied to the two
paintings; one perhaps has a more respectable art historUnknown Portrait, oil on canvas (partially cleaned)
ical pedigree than the other, but both are essentially the
same image of an old man wearing a cap.
The painting below, formerly known as Rembrandt’s Father or Rembrandt’s Brother, was
acquired from the E. Habich Kassel Collection in 1891 by the Gemäldegalerie, Kassel, Germany. It was previously consigned to auction from the Freiherr von Friesen Collection and sold
at the March 26–27, 1885 Heberle Keulen (Moore’s Art Gallery) auction to Edward Habich of
Kassel. It is dated after 1630, thought to have been painted by Rembrandt and was listed and
illustrated as Rembrandt’s Father in Rembrandt Paintings
by A. Bredius and H. Gerson (1971). In 1986 the painting was reassessed and attributed to a contemporary of
Rembrandt’s named Jan Lievens (1607–1674).
My client’s painting exhibits some quite obvious similarities to the one attributed to Jan Lievens, and one
wonders why it has not been subjected to traditional art
historical inquiry to establish its origin and authenticity.
The image appears to be stylistically consistent with
other paintings by both Lievens and Rembrandt.
Lievens collaborated and shared a studio with Rembrandt from 1626 until 1631 when they parted ways, and
their competitive collaboration was intimate enough to
cause difficulties in the attribution of works from this
period.
The painting attributed to Jan Lievens appears to
demonstrate all the attributes required to establish perAttributed to Jan Lievens, Bust of a Man with a
manent and prolonged art historical residency. It has a
Cap, oil on oak pane
traceable pedigree, is recognized by society as a cultural
artifact and is imbued with respectability and civility. The unknown painting, however, is of
dubious origin, undocumented and, perhaps, at some future point, will take its rightfully
deserved place in the history of art.

GALLERY VIEWS
BY MICHAEL TURNER
PHOTO: BOB FRID / COURTESY: AUDAIN ART MUSEUM
The March 6 opening of the Audain Art
Museum at Whistler was a much-ballyhooed
affair. Celebrated by locals and visitors alike,
the $30 million Patkau Architects-designed
building, located on a wooded flood plain
beside the village townsite, had its ribbon cut
barely 40 months after developer Michael
Audain announced his intention to “build a
home” for his and his wife Yoshiko Karasawa’s predominantly British Columbian art
collection. But with that home now built, are
people coming?
“May is a quiet month, a transition from
skiing to summer activities,” says Executive Director Suzanne Greening as we move quickly
through the spacious but otherwise empty hemlock-scented lobby toward the museum’s BC galleries. When asked how many memberships the Audain has sold, Greening confesses she does not
have an exact figure, but in the museum’s first 32 days, 8,000 people have walked through its doors.
Not bad for a town of 10,000.
Although the building is praised for its thoughtful, environmentally sensitive design, more
experienced gallery-goers have grumbled that its walls are too cluttered – this despite the museum
doubling its original exhibition space to 56,000 square feet (the Vancouver Art Gallery, by comparison, has 41,000 square feet). While true that the BC galleries would benefit from an edit (why not
open with just one work by each of the photo-conceptualists?), the path that links them – from 19th
century carvers to interdisciplinarians like Raymond Boisjoly –
rarely departs from parallel, if at
times interweaving, indigenous
and settler narratives. This, most
would agree, is an achievement.
“Culture is the third leg of the
stool,” Greening says over her
shoulder as we leave the sparer
Mexican Modernists exhibition
for the building’s just-opened second floor. Asked to elaborate on
the metaphor, Greening recalls a
Tourism Whistler report that has
organizations like the Audain
closing the gap between outdoor sporting seasons, while at the same time providing a year-round
“complement” to both. Will the museum be partnering with other cultural organizations? Greening mentions a recent conversation with the Whistler Film Festival – a complementary choice given that none of the works on display is a film or a video.
After a rundown on the second floor’s upcoming Masterworks from the Beaverbrook Art Gallery
(June 18-September 11, 2016), Greening excuses herself to lead “yet another tour.” I take a final
look around, my eyes lingering on the Emily Carr-like thicket of trees outside the second floor’s
magnificent trapezoid window. As I return down the long glass-walled hallway, I can hear Greening
once again describe the museum’s knotless hemlock-panelled interior, only this time the lobby is
packed.

OPEN SPACE, VICTORIA BC – Jun 17-Jul 30, 2016 Jennifer Willet from Windsor, Ontario will be at Open
Space this summer engaged in, and encouraging others to engage in, a series of art/science experiments
with her touring exhibition, Natural Science. This is an exciting opportunity for those of us interested in the
field of BioArt. Willet’s work “explores notions of
representation, the body, ecologies, and interspecies interrelations in the biotechnological field.”
Willet completed a Masters degree in Fine Arts
at the University of Guelph before earning a PhD in
Interdisciplinary Studies at Concordia University in
2009. She is currently an Assistant Professor in the
School of Visual Arts at the University of Windsor,
where she founded INCUBATOR, Canada’s first
art/science laboratory. INCUBATOR “functions
both as an apparatus in which environmental conditions can be controlled towards the assisted proliferation of life, but also as a site that supports the proliferation of new ideas – new artistic practices.”
Elaborating on an earlier work called BioARTCAMP, an art/science happening that took place in
July 2011 in the Rocky Mountains, the Natural
Science tour is a platform for Dr. Willet to present Jennifer Willet, Natural Science (2014), mixed media [Open Space,
lab specimens, as well as video, photography and Victoria BC, Jun 17-Jul 30]
stories culled from “a variety of scientific, ecological, creative, and theoretical projects” completed during BioARTCAMP. Christine Clark

ART GALLERY OF ALBERTA, EDMONTON AB – Apr 30-Sep 18, 2016 If collage is the most significant artistic innovation of the 20th century, and deconstruction art history’s methodological
equivalent, how might we characterize our current
moment? A trend that took root in the 1970s had artists
continuing to produce objects and gestures while at the
same time questioning the assumptions that underlie
their assembly, distribution and meaning. For some,
“archaeology” is the metaphor used to describe this
questioning; for the Linklaters, it is “excavation.”
In this exhibition – a curatorial project of the Ociciwan Art Collective – Duane Linklater and Tanya Lukin
Linklater provide installations that “explore notions of
excavation in relation to the intellectual, environmental
and cultural resources most immediate to the artists.”
For Duane, the object under study is the wall upon
which an artwork hangs, but especially the composition of that wall, how its materials (gypsum, wood and
steel) are ideologically rooted in the political economy
of a country that has walled-in those it calls “aboriginal.” For Tanya, the focus is less on the physical presence of the gallery than on our recognition of it as a
“site where critical modes of discourse may converge.”
Through her “excavation” of the institution’s archive,
Tanya has produced an “open-ended” work that asks, Duane Linklater, A Sort of Naiveté (2015), Sheetrock,
among other things, “How does the institution per- pushpins, digital print on paper [Art Gallery of Alberta,

PORTLAND ART MUSEUM, PORTLAND OR – Jun 4-Sep 4, 2016 This travelling exhibit of contemporary
Native American fashion includes nearly 100 pieces by 71 indigenous designers from across the U.S. and
Canada. Organized by the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, MA, this will be the only West Coast venue
to host the exhibit, which unravels dated notions of what Native American design looks like. From vibrant
street clothing to elegant haute couture, the garments, jewellery and accessories on exhibit celebrate individuality in pieces
that span the last half-century to today.
The exhibit identifies five themes: Pathbreakers, Revisitors, Activators, Provocateurs and Motivators. The Pathbreakers are essentially “groundbreakers” including Cherokee
designer Lloyd “Kiva” New who is considered the father of
contemporary Native American fashion. New was the first to
bring his successful clothing line from the 1950s and 60s into
mainstream distribution at Neiman Marcus and at boutiques
on Fifth Avenue and in Beverly Hills. The Revisitors showcase
designs that have renewed and expanded on tradition, like a
pair of Christian Louboutin boots embellished by Jamie Okuma, a Luiseño/Shoshone-Bannock prize-winning artist who
began beading at the age of 5.
The Activators focus is on everyday wear from sneakers to
tee shirts that have just the right amount of political flair. The
Provocateurs create conceptually driven experimental works,
like Portland artist Wendy Red Star, and the Motivators are
designers working within companies to shift the business of
fashion from Native-inspired back to inspired Natives.

ALLYN CANTOR
MICHAEL BROPHY: FOREST AND CLEARING Laura Russo Gallery, Portland, Jun 2-Jul 2 In this new exhibition Michael Brophy revisits earlier themes of the forest and clearcuts, which had been a strong focus in
his work about 10 years ago. Brophy’s large-scale oil paintings are
immersive, faithfully rendering the Northwest in grand scenes that
show both old growth trees as well as ominous portrayals of tree
stump graveyards. In some of these beautiful articulations of place,
modest figures create a powerful sense of scale while recalling the
overarching effects of human industry on the environment.
RYAN PIERCE: DUSK IS THE MOUTH OF NIGHT Elizabeth Leach Gallery,
Portland, Jun 2-Jul 16 This new exhibition is a continuation of Ryan
Pierce’s ongoing series Terra Incognita, which looks at the links between
natural history, exploration and conquest. His large-scale paintings are
alluring in their colour and mystery, depicting an amalgamation of still
life objects and unearthly environs that are wrought with symbolism.
We don’t know exactly what is happening in these surreal narratives, yet
they are undoubtedly dystopian. Many of Pierce’s scenes evoke stories
of exploitation, while others depict museum settings destroyed by
storms and flooding associated with climate change.
MARC BOONE: PACIFIC PORTALS, ARCANE IMAGE Imogen Gallery,
Astoria, Jun 11-Jul 5 Northwest artist Marc Boone keeps his main studio on Washington’s Long Beach Peninsula; his paintings mirror the
primordial geology of the Columbia Pacific region where the confluence of water, land and sky are in ever-changing grandeur. Distilling
his compositions into essential forms rendered as deep earthy impasto
textures, Boone’s “portals” act as emotive recollections of moments
when a plethora of natural elements inseparably converge. In these
somewhat abstract paintings, Boone’s glimpse into tidal ebbs and flows
reflect the enigmatic process of observation and creation.
DAVID SELLECK: COUCH PAINTING Blackfish Gallery, Portland, May 31Jul 2 David Selleck’s imaginary world employs humour and wit to tell
stories that are just outside the viewer’s reach. The artist draws from
the weirdness of daily life he encounters, seeing his work as an escape
valve from “this too serious world.” Filtering the state of contemporary affairs into finely crafted paintings, Selleck devours news, photos,
ads and other detritus from our media-saturated culture as a daily
standalone practice of creating 30-minute collage drawings. In turn
these become the basis for Selleck’s quirky paintings.
RANDALL DAVID TIPTON: NEW LANDSCAPES Coos Art Museum, Coos
Bay, Jul 9-Sep 24 Randall David Tipton paints non-traditional landscapes based on Oregon locations that the artist visits often. Vibrant
colour choices point to the transcendental qualities of nature, while
painterly gestures are balanced with quiet moments of gentle hues
and ethereal space. Tipton works in both oil and watermedia and has
been exhibiting his paintings for over three decades. He studied
under Richard Diebenkorn in 1985 in the Master class at the Santa Fe
Institute of Fine Art.

CERAMICS INVITATIONAL: NATIONAL CLAY Traver Gallery, Seattle, Jul
7-30 Gallery director Jeffery Kuiper is assembling another of the
national clay surveys that Traver has regularly hosted since the late
1970s. This time, abstraction and representation are mixed up with
an anticipated life-size self-portrait by Tip Toland; rough, stacked
vertical forms by John Balistreri; and figurative and abstract walls
and sculptures by Omaha resident Jun Kaneko, along with works by
12 other artists from across the nation.
MARGIE LIVINGSTON: TOO SOON FOR HINDSIGHT Greg Kucera
Gallery, Seattle, Jul 7-Aug 20 For her seventh Kucera show since
her 2004 debut, Margie Livingston has new paintings on stretchers
that have been dragged facedown on the ground, as well as cut-andglued strips of painted canvas which accumulate into drenched
stacks. With well-received solo shows in Los Angeles and Tampa,
Florida, Livingston, now 62, is also attracting attention in group
shows in Germany, China, Indiana and New York.

EMANCIPATING THE PAST: KARA WALKER’S TALES OF SLAVERY AND
POWER Bellevue Arts Museum, Bellevue, Jul 8-Nov 27 Drawing
from the art collection of industrialist Jordan Schnitzer, this survey
of the 46-year-old former MacArthur Fellow displays three print
portfolios that illuminate Walker’s hatred of dominant white culture in the U.S. Her themes of race, slavery and sexual violence are
countered by black critics in an interesting book, Kara Walker No/
Kara Walker Yes/ Kara Walker? Go and make up your own mind.
RAVEN SKYRIVER Stonington Gallery, Seattle, Aug 4-28 For his second solo show at Stonington, Tlingit tribal member Raven Skyriver
concentrates on glass interpretations of maritime life in the Salish
Sea (a.k.a Puget Sound). The 34-year-old former member of the
William Morris hot-shop glassblowing team has been influenced by
Dale Chihuly’s original lifelike Seaforms. His sculptures of octopus,
salmon, whales and otters avoid cuddly references in favour of
graceful underwater movements caught in mid-moment.

unusual mixed-media sculptures. Cane, bamboo and reeds are
seamlessly woven into and around cylinders, vases, rocks and baskets. With allusions to Japan and the North Africa and Spain of his
childhood, Webber creates a neo-ethnic art all his own.

SEATTLE ART MUSEUM, SEATTLE, WA – Jun 9-Aug 28, 2016 Considering that printmaking was revived
as a legitimate contemporary art form in the 20th century, it is high time the Seattle Art Museum is
trotting out several centuries of masterpieces to demonstrate how it all got started. Assembled over
decades, thanks to perspicacious collectors like
Leo Wallerstein, SAM’s graphic masters on
view give visitors and art students an in-depth
chance to see the earliest examples of engravings, etchings, lithographs, aquatints and woodcuts, beginning with Albrecht Dürer’s large
woodcut version of the Passion of Christ (14971510).
Two Spanish artists, Francisco Goya and
Pablo Picasso, each extended the chemically
complicated medium of acid etching in his own
way. Goya’s legendary Los Caprichos (1799) are
now seen as the dawn of political protest art with
their satires of aristocrats, judges and clergy. In
the Vollard Suite (1930-37), Picasso extended
Goya’s racy angle with frank scenes of mythological figures caught in piquant situations.
Besides Hogarth’s Rake’s Progress (1733),
another tale of sexual debauchery, R. Crumb,
perhaps the crudest and most popular of
recent cartoonists, contributes his take on Rembrandt van Rijn, Self-portrait with Saskia (1636), etching

FORBIDDEN FRUIT: CHRIS ANTEMANN EXHIBIT CATALOG is a beautifully illustrated book, documenting exquisite porcelain sculptures by Oregon artist Chris
Antemann, who was invited to participate in the Art Studio program at the legendary MEISSEN Porcelain Manufactory in Germany. Using the Garden of Eden
as a metaphor, Antemann created a sensual narrative that references classic
Baroque figurines with a witty take on contemporary social relationships. The
publication details her work made in collaboration with master artisans during the
residency, which resulted in a grand installation most recently exhibited at the
Bellevue Arts Museum.
Hardcover, 93 pp., $32 USD. Available at Bellevue Arts Museum Store, 425-519-0722,

NELSON SANDGREN: AN ARTIST’S LIFE is the first in-depth study of this midcentury Oregon modernist who distinguished himself in oil painting, watercolour
and lithography throughout his 65-year career. Written by Roger Hull, the monograph was published in conjunction with the retrospective at the Hallie Ford
Museum of Art in Salem, OR. Nelson Sandgren (1917-2006) was born in Canada
and moved to Oregon with his family during the Depression. Sandgren’s artwork
combined a reverence for the Northwest landscape with abstraction and expressive brushwork.
Hardcover, 88 pp., $24.95 USD. Available at Hallie Ford Museum of Art, 503-370-6855.
BILL REID COLLECTED is a handsome introduction to one of Canada’s most
esteemed First Nations artists. With an essay by curator and scholar Martine J.
Reid (the artist’s widow), it surveys Bill Reid’s art chronologically, from his early
jewellery to his monumental sculptures in bronze. The author poses a new system of classifying Reid’s work and examines the “fusion of his two worlds, Haida
and non-Haida” in his distinctive practice.
Softcover, 168 pp., $19.95 CAD. Available at the Bill Reid Gallery of Northwest Coast Art,
604-682-3455.
I HAD AN INTERESTING FRENCH ARTIST TO SEE ME THIS SUMMER is the catalogue to the Vancouver Art Gallery show of the same name (Jul 1-Nov 13). Subtitled Emily Carr and Wolfgang Paalen in British Columbia, both the book and
exhibition explore the parallel journeys of these two Modernist artists (who met in
Victoria in 1939) of widely diverse backgrounds. Guest curator Colin Browne
focuses on the creative insights each artist gleaned from Northwest Coast First
Nations art.

and the works’ historical, cultural and political contexts. Edited by curators Karen
Duffek and Tania Willard, with essays and interviews by an array of contributors.

Social Reflections Within Contemporary Art
TACOMA ART MUSEUM, TACOMA WA – May 14-Sep 4, 2016 After all the explicit political harangues in
his recent Art AIDS America show, chief curator Rock Hushka recruited Miami curator Juan Roselione-Valadez to help ferret out any
“subversive” suspects in Northwest
art. Environmental concerns outweigh hard-core political art
among most of the 24 artists selected from as far away as Boise, Idaho
and Walla Walla, Washington.
After years of being in a cultural
wasteland for the visual artists living
there, five Tacoma artists caught the
jurors’ attention, including Jeremy
Mangan whose Pacific Northwest
Desert Island is a hilarious comment
on diminishing wildlife areas. Neon
installations join quilts, paintings,
photographs and prints along with
mixed-media assemblages that deal

traffic problems filmed from the
museum’s rooftop to gender and
ethnic identity. The challenge of these artists is to transmute personal expression into social and political
art that will not become tiresomely scolding or dated. Artists are caught between dealing with local issues
(“All politics is local,” as Tip O’Neill said) and aiming for more widely referential or transcendent content
in their art, as Hushka and his co-curator have uncovered some unexpected treasures. Matthew Kangas
