PORTLAND ART MUSEUM, PORTLAND OR – Sep 21, 2013-Jan 12, 2014 This third edition of the biennial
exhibition that recognizes artistic merit in the greater Northwest region began with over 200 nominees
chosen by regional art professionals. The field was pared down to 28 semi-finalists based on their dedication, innovation and continuity of practice and on their work’s quality and relevance to community or
global issues. From there, six finalists were selected and awarded with a place in this prominent museum
show. Artwork by Karl Burkheimer of Oregon, Isaac Layman, Nicholas Nyland and Trimpin of Washington, Anne Appleby of Montana and Abbie Miller of Wyoming make up this exhibit.
Anne Appleby’s internationally
exhibited colour field paintings reference landscape elements through careful chromatic choices and layering
upon layering of oil and wax. Often
assembled into multi-panel pieces, her
resonant paintings are soothingly minimalist with complicated colour relationships that give voice to her underlying source of inspiration. Isaac Layman
has become well known in recent years
for his large-scale photo-constructions
of domestic subjects such as a sink or
medicine chest. His compositions are
somewhat eerie in their sharp detail Anne Appleby, Water Birch (2012), oil and wax on canvas [Portland Art Museum,
Portland OR, Sep 21-Jan 12]
and underlying allusion to emptiness
and loneliness.
Karl Burkheimer uses wood primarily as an expressive material. His crafted works are both architectural and sculptural, creating a weighty psychological tension in the way they inhabit space. Abbie
Miller’s work is also material based. She uses yards of sewn vinyl and zippers to create large-scale biomorphic sculptures that have a glossy, surreal flavour. Nicholas Nyland’s work also has surreal tendencies, his vibrant painting and sculptures conjuring a highly personal aesthetic.
With his music-based installations, Trimpin innovates with sculpture, sound and engineering elements. In this show, his bright red, modified and interactive grand piano hanging from a tripod is his
latest spectacle. Allyn Cantor

ROBIN LAuRENCE
THE INTELLECTION OF LADY SPIDER HOUSE Art Gallery of Alberta,
Edmonton, Sep 14-Jan 12 Playing with the theme of a house of horrors, Vancouver-based, internationally renowned artist Geoffrey
Farmer invited 11 other artists, including Brian Jungen, Judy Radul
and Ron Tran, to collaborate with him in creating an imaginatively
spooky and sometimes downright scary series of interwoven art
works that occupy the AGA’s entire third floor. “I wanted to make
an exhibition that was atmospheric at its core,” Farmer says. Expect
encompassing darkness, secret passages, bloody body parts, ghostly
apparitions – and references to local history.
MONIKA SOSNOWSKA Southern Alberta Art Gallery, Lethbridge, Sep 24Nov 28 Polish artist Monika Sosnowska is acclaimed for large-scale
architectural installations that explore the way the built environment
can be invested with political, religious and economic ideologies. On
view here is a series of painted steel sculptures that suggest workaday
architectural forms such as stairways, stalls and tiered seating. Each,
however, is twisted, bent or collapsed – rendered at once both abstract
and obsolete. Her references are to a stadium in Warsaw, converted to
a huge marketplace after the collapse of communism, but then
demolished and replaced with a new stadium in time to co-host the
2012 European Football Championship.
ANGAKKUQ: BETWEEN TWO WORLDS Art Gallery of Alberta, Edmonton,
Oct 26-Feb 16 This powerful exhibition – subtitled “Spiritual and
Mythological Figures in Inuit and Inuvialuit Art” – surveys work by
over 50 artists from 22 northern communities across the Canadian
Arctic. Produced between 1960 and 2009, the sculptures, prints,
drawings, ceramics and textile works demonstrate the persistence of
traditional belief systems, especially in depictions of shamanic transformation, supernatural beings and spirit figures. Images of extraordinary transformation predominate in art loaned to the exhibition from
a dedicated group of private collectors.
WILLIAM DUMA Wallace Galleries, Calgary, Nov 16-27 This respected
senior artist works primarily as a landscape painter, but his sensibilities are also informed by his pastimes as a fly fisherman and jazz
musician. The influence of the Group of Seven is also noticeable in
Duma’s depictions of the southern Alberta countryside in fall and
winter, seasons when he is most entranced with the natural world’s
qualities of light, colour and form.

LAUREN WALKER: MILK & HONEY Herringer Kiss Gallery, Calgary, Jan
11-Feb 1 This Calgary painter was strongly influenced by fibre arts
during her childhood on the Atlantic coast. She draws many of her
lively colours, patterns and forms from quilting and other textile
traditions, as well as from the natural world. Walker’s recent paintings and collages explore the idea of the bed as a place of “ritual and
routine, dreams and nightmares, love and loneliness.” Where we
sleep, she says, is a place of both vulnerability and creativity.

The Kingston Prize
ART GALLERY OF CALGARY – Nov 1, 2013-Jan 25, 2014 The Kingston Prize has been Canada’s foremost
portrait competition since its inception in 2005. Each year the exhibit showcases the talents of 30 outstanding Canadian artists in a series of portraits that reveal the richness and diversity of painting and
drawing across the country. In addition to the prestige, more than $24,000 in prize money encourages
artists to participate in the touring exhibition.
The 2013 winner is Richard Davis for his luminous self-portrait as viewed from behind, titled
Basement Self Portrait. An exquisite and moving image, it is painted with oil over tempera emulsion on
panel with a delicate hand and the absolute, sure
mastery of a brilliant painter. Davis was previously with the Atelier Gallery in Vancouver before
moving to Nova Scotia. He currently exhibits in
Toronto at the Odon Wagner Gallery and in
New York at Gerold Wunderlich & Co. In 2011,
Davis was inducted into the Royal Canadian
Academy of Arts.
The majority of pieces short-listed for the
2013 prize are drawn or painted in high realism or
photorealist styles. An outstanding painting and
the People’s Choice Award went to Jessie Babin
for his stunning graphite portrait entitled Valmont.
The three BC artists selected were Jay Senetchko,
Elizabeth Topham and Nelly Kazenbroot. Both
Senetchko and Topham won an honourable menRichard Davis, Basement Self Portrait (2013), oil over tempera

Dina Goldstein: In the Dollhouse
KIMOTO GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Oct 29-Nov 15, 2013 Dina Goldstein is an editorial photographer who explores the role of women in fairy tales using staged sets. In 2007, she created a
series of images entitled Fallen Princesses. She employed Snow White, Rapunzel, Red Riding
Hood and similar characters from
children’s fables, as well as Pocahontas, Ariel and Belle from Disney
movies, to comment on contemporary issues of poverty, obesity, cancer and pollution. The staged photographs received global attention
for her critical commentary on the
Disney world, and raised questions
about the lives women are expected
to lead compared with the actual
lives they experience.
In 2011, Goldstein created In the
Dollhouse, a series of scenes depicting
the marriage of Barbie and Ken
falling apart. Using a small crew of
Dina Goldstein, Bedroom (2012), pigment on archival paper [Kimoto Gallery,

photographer painted rooms Barbiepink and filled them with life-sized replicas of Barbie furniture. She found beautiful models to play Barbie and Ken, and then posed them in 10 encounters that explored assumptions about physical beauty,
gender, stereotyping, marriage and social expectations. The work, which has been widely shown and
reviewed on the Internet and featured in dozens of publications, is being shown at the Kimoto Gallery
during the Capture Photography Festival. Mia Johnson

James Holroyd: Flora
NEWZONES GALLERY, CALGARY AB – Nov 28, 2013-Jan 11, 2014 Alberta artist James Holroyd has
been experimenting with the pinhole camera and related photographic techniques for the past 15
years. He is well known for his bromoil photographs of antique toys and dolls. These inkgelatin images are individually printed by
hand using brushes and sponges. His more
recent work introduces flower heads, stems
and leaves. Both the plants and the old toys
admirably suit his style with their slightly outof-focus, monochromatic and antediluvian
appearance.
His floral- and plant-based imagery is created in cyanotype. Using four- by five- inch
negatives, he prints the photos on wood panels of the same size and shape as the photos,
and then assembles the separate pieces. The
underlying grain of the wood comes through,
and the edges of the wood act as grids where
the tonal value and lighting change unevenly.
The saturated, other-worldly blues give his
James Holroyd, Lisianthus 1 (2013), cyanotype on panel [Newzones
work a haunting, ethereal appearance.
Holroyd has a master’s degree in English Gallery, Calgary AB, Nov 28-Jan 11]
literature and teaches in the Artstream program, a joint project of Bow Valley College and the
Alberta College of Art and Design. His work has been shown in numerous international art fairs,

Mungo Thomson: Negative Space
OFF-SITE AT YALETOWN-ROUNDHOUSE STATION, CANADA LINE – Oct 1, 2013-Jan 12, 2014 Mungo
Thomson, an artist based in Los Angeles, works with film, photography and sculpture to make art that
reflects mass culture. Negative Space is
an ongoing series of large photographs of deep space that Thomson
has sourced from the Hubble Space
Telescope archives and inverted with
Photoshop.
Thomson began the Negative
Space astronomy project in 2005 and
describes his manipulated imagery as
“visual whale song – atmospherics for
the spiritually inclined.” The murals
are displayed at the Yaletown-Roundhouse Station, in partnership with the
Contemporary Art Gallery, the Capture Photography Festival and the View of installation at the Yaletown-Roundhouse Canada Line Station in Vancouver, BC
Canada Line Public Art Program, [Yaletown-Roundhouse Station, Vancouver BC, Oct 1-Jan 12]

Thomson was born in 1969 in Woodland, California, and now lives in Los Angeles and Berlin. He
attended the Whitney Museum Independent Study Program in 1994, and received an MFA from the
University of California in 2000. His work has been shown extensively in prominent American and
European museums and galleries, including the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, the 12th Istanbul
Biennial, Kunsthalle Düsseldorf in Germany (2009), and the 2008 Whitney Biennial. Mia Johnson

NELSON AT WAR Touchstones Nelson: Museum of Art and History,
Sep 14-Nov 24 Nelson, British Columbia saw many of its young
people head off to both World Wars. Many never returned, and
those who did were profoundly altered by their experiences – as
were the people who remained at home and those who relocated to
internment camps in the Nelson area. This exhibition, featuring historic photographs, news clippings and artifacts, examines the
changes war has wrought on the community.
BABAK GOLKAR: DIALECTIC OF FAILURE West Vancouver Museum,
West Vancouver, Oct 11-Dec 7 Vancouver artist Babak Golkar uses
the humble medium of clay to explore oppositions of historicism
and modernity, art and craft, modern reasoning and ancient mysticism. His three-part exhibition includes organic-looking clay pots
designed for visitors to pick up and scream into; a video projection
of lumps of clay being thrown against a sheet of drywall; and that
same stained sheet of drywall, together with bent, folded and flattened lumps of clay in their fired state.
REALITEIT Jennifer Kostuik Gallery, Vancouver, Oct 17-Nov 15 In conjunction with the Capture Photography Festival, this exhibition of
gallery artists reveals how subjective “reality” is. Dianne Bos uses a
multi-holed camera to create images of faux galaxies; David Burdeny employs a large-format camera and long exposure times in the
realization of compellingly detailed, almost surreal landscapes; Jim
Kazanjian employs “hyper collage” to produce fantastical, sci-fi-like
scenes; and Catherine Nelson digitally “paints” hundreds of photographic images together in her re-imaginings of the natural world.
JAYCE SALLOUM: LOCATION/DIS-LOCATION(S) grunt gallery, Vancouver, Oct 25-Nov 30 This photographic installation continues Jayce
Salloum’s critical engagement with natural and constructed environments. Shot during the artist’s recent travels, the images feature
ideological signs or signifiers and evoke a shifting sense of what is
familiar and what is foreign. Ranging from piles of driftwood to
abandoned furniture, smokestacks, spiders and potholes in a gravel
road, Salloum’s photos also show us the places where nature butts
up against culture, and vice versa.
EMMA MCLAY: RECLAIMANT Xchanges Gallery, Victoria, Nov 1-24 At
once tough and fragile, opaque and transparent, Emma McLay’s
new, wall-mounted assemblages explore “a woman’s reproductive
journey through the medical system.” McLay uses a combination
of acrylic paint, metal, wood, glass and fibre to express a range of
physical and emotional experiences, ultimately focusing, she says,
“on female identity being asserted and empowered through the
maternal journey.” This Pender Island artist earned an MFA in
painting at the University of Alberta. Her new work evolved from
her much-lauded graduating project.

THIS IS WHERE I GO: A MAIL ART EXHIBITION Britannia Art Gallery,
Vancouver, Nov 6-29 Mail art, or correspondence art, first gained
wide attention in the 1960s and ’70s. This exhibition demonstrates
the widely inclusive and international nature of the movement.
Curator and artist Laura Bucci invited participants (via online mail
portals) to contribute four- by six-inch original postcards on a “This
is Where I Go” theme, and she received over 100 submissions from
both adults and children in more than 25 countries.
KEITH RICE-JONES: WORKING THE EDGE Art Gallery at Evergreen
Cultural Centre, Coquitlam, Nov 14-Jan 9 This senior West Coast
artist, who originally trained as a woodwork teacher in England, began
working in clay in the early 1970s. Influenced by the modernist ideals of
incorporating art and design, Rice-Jones has produced a range of works
in the ceramic medium, from dishes, bowls and platters to wall-mounted relief sculptures, floor murals and large-scale public commissions.
This retrospective exhibition demonstrates the length and breadth of
his creative journey, and the natural rhythms and philosophical questions that have informed his art.
VOLUMES: WORKS IN PAPER Burnaby Art Gallery, Burnaby, Nov 29Jan 19 The established and emerging artists in this exhibition make
ambitious use of paper as a structural medium rather than simply as
a ground for graphic art production. The works on view include
installation, large-scale printmaking, paper cuts and sculpture.
Included are Teresa Ilene Redden’s intricately patterned paper cube,
Myra Edie’s photo-etchings of gloves and stockings mounted on
pressboard, and Maggie Boyd’s marriage of the drawing medium
with ceramics.
CLASH: CONFLICT AND ITS CONSEQUENCES The Reach Gallery,
Abbotsford, Jan 23-Mar 30 This powerful travelling exhibition
explores the many ways the camera registers human conflict. Photographs range from Sam Tata’s documents of the fall of Shanghai in
1949 and Michael Mitchell’s records of the struggle between the
Sandinistas and the Contras in Nicaragua in the 1980s to Larry Towell’s close-up observations of the Second Palestinian Intifada in 2000
and Jin-me Yoon’s performance photos on the theme of the enduring
impact of the Korean War. Whether derived from the documentary
tradition or from fictional recreations of conflict, the images in Clash
remind us of the relationship of photography to memory and to the
ways history is told.

BY ROBIN LAURENCE
The Robert Bateman Centre
A recent daytrip to Victoria, where I lived many years ago, reminded me of the extreme picturesqueness of the city’s Inner Harbour. Clearly, other visitors to the place needed no such memory
tweaking. Throngs of tourists made their way from the southern edge of downtown, passing the
vine-covered Empress Hotel, the totem poles outside the Royal BC Museum, and the beautifully
groomed lawns and gardens of the provincial legislature. They made their way past vendors selling jewellery, basketry and small carvings, too, and others hawking sightseeing bus tours, horsedrawn carriage rides and whale-watching expeditions. The size and determination of the crowds
astonished me.
Smartly positioned on the waterfront –
and along this well-trodden path – is the
Robert Bateman Centre. Located at 470
Belleville Street in a handsomely renovated heritage building, the centre opened
last May on its featured artist’s 83rd birthday. If there had been any doubts about
the local popularity of this internationally
known wildlife artist, they were dispelled
by the 3,000 people who visited the place
on its opening weekend. The Robert Bateman Centre offers the largest-ever showing of the Salt Spring Island artist’s works:
some 160 paintings, drawings and reproductions are on view in eight distinctly
themed galleries, complemented by multimedia and interactive digital components.
Installed on the top floor of the 1924 neo- The Robert Bateman Centre, located in a 1924 neoclassical building on the
classical building, which was originally waterfront in Victoria, displays the largest exhibit of original works by the
designed as a steamship terminal by Fran- popular wildlife artist
cis Rattenbury and P.L. James, the centre
chronicles Bateman’s long career, highlights his achievements and emphasizes his devotion to
educating adults and children about the importance of our relationship with the natural world.
Among the works on view: wildlife paintings Bateman produced as a youth in Toronto,
when he was already a devotee of nature and its creatures; depictions of rural subjects, such as
old barns in snowy fields, influenced by the American realist painter Andrew Wyeth; and surprisingly abstract works in the manner of the New York School. More familiar are the paintings devoted to African subjects, including the intensely observed and highly detailed images
of elephants, lions, tigers, leopards, cheetahs and other great beasts that launched Bateman’s
career as a wildlife artist. A gallery devoted to paintings of birds expresses his enduring fondness for these feathered creatures. Visitors to this gallery will also hear birdsong recorded by
Salt Spring Islanders John and Heather Neville. Mammals in the human-altered landscape
and creatures endangered by over-fishing, oil spills, resource exploitation and global climate
change are also represented here.
When the centre opened, Bateman told the CBC that he hoped it would both “guard his
legacy and advance his environmental message.” The centre’s admission revenues are intended
to fund the Bateman Foundation, a national, not-for-profit charity that supports educational
programs promoting an understanding of the natural world and, again, highlighting the
importance of our relationship with it.

SOUTHERN ALBERTA ART GALLERY, LETHBRIDGE AB – Sep 28-Nov 24, 2013 Screen and Décor is a group
exhibition of artworks influenced by the computer and electronic screens. The show was curated by
Rosemary Heather, the former editor of C magazine (2003-2009). Many of the pieces use iteration,
fractals and other kinds of repetition. Views of the artworks on the walls are enhanced by coloured
Plexiglas panels hung throughout the
gallery space, which add depth to the
exhibition as a whole. The panels were
created by Rodney LaTourelle, who is
known for expanding the aesthetics of
colour field painting into room-sized
installations.
The work of six artists from Canada,
Germany and Denmark is featured:
Shannon Bool, Simone Gilges, Bernhard
Kahrmann, Sanaz Mazinani, Kristine
Roepstorff and Emmy Skensved.
Most of the imagery is black and white or
low-key in colour, and emphasizes the

PREVIEW 31
Conservator’s Corner
BY REBECCA PAVITT
www.fineartconserve.com
The Use of Fixatives in the Treatment of Embellished Textiles
Textiles can be decorated and embellished in countless ways. Something many of these embellishments
have in common is sensitivity to water. They include water-soluble dyes, threads that were insufficiently
rinsed after dyeing and can therefore stain adjoining threads and fabric, degraded silks, metallic threads
wrapped around paper cores, gelatin or cellulose nitrate sequins, easily corroded metal components, and
matte or loosely bound pigments.
Tests may identify sensitive materials
before treatment, but not always. A particular worry surrounds samplers, in which
threads of even the same colour might
come from different dye lots and sources.
Spot tests can easily miss the one area
where a colour is not waterfast. Moreover,
dyes or colours that tests show are stable
can end up solubilizing with prolonged
water exposure – as can occur during washing. The large unembellished areas of decorated textiles can also show stains and discolorations on the ground fabric. In the
past, these could not be cleaned, either,
Sampler before treatment, showing soiled linen ground
because of the water-sensitive elements.
Today, new and completely removable fixatives have made their way into the conservator’s toolbox,
allowing many of these “unwashables” to be safely cleaned. One example, cyclododecane, is a favourite of
mine. This evaporating wax, applied with a kistka (the tool used to decorate Ukrainian Easter eggs), is useful for protecting relatively small detailed areas such as embroidery. It is available as a spray, too, useful for
fixing larger areas.
Cyclomethicone is another new fixative. It is a very slow-evaporating organic liquid with virtually no
solvency power, and it can be brushed or sprayed over larger areas to make them water resistant.
The linen ground fabric of the sampler pictured here was quite soiled, but the silk embroidery threads
were too fragile to subject to water cleaning. I therefore used a kistka to apply
cyclodocecane to the front and back. The
sampler could then be safely washed with
neutral detergents and chelating agents. I
then applied a protective alkaline reserve
to the linen ground fabric, without touching the silk embroidery threads. (The latter, being protein, are best kept at a neutral to slightly acidic pH range.)
Conservation is an ever-changing discipline that borrows and adapts technologies from far-flung sources. Cyclodocecane is used industrially to produce flame
retardants, and cyclomethicone is used in
Sampler after treatment, which included cleaning and fixing with cyclododecane
the cosmetics industry. I’m always grateful
for the curiosity and imagination of my colleagues who search out solutions for our profession and find
them in such disparate materials.

The Marvellous Real: Art from Mexico, 1926-2011
MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY, VANCOUVER BC – Oct 25, 2013-Mar 30, 2014 The Marvellous Real:
Art from Mexico showcases eight decades of
contemporary and modern artwork by artists from
Mexico. The extensive collection of 55 pieces,
curated by Nicola Levell, features a diverse array of
media, including painting, sculpture, mixed
media, photography and video.
The Spanish phrase Lo real maravilloso, translated
as “the marvelous real,” describes the nature of the
style of these artworks – magical, out of this world
and often bizarre. They encapsulate Mexico’s fantastic
form of magic realism and offer world views filtered
through a range of abstract, surreal and embellished
objects. Highlights of the exhibition include
Frida Kahlo’s Mi vestido cuelga aqui (My Dress Hangs
Here, 1933), Betsabeé Romero’s Serpiente (Serpent,
2004), and works by Dr. Atl (Gerardo Murillo),
Leonora Carrington, Jean Charlot, Juan O’Gorman,
Alice Rahon, David Alfaro Siqueiros, Juan Soriano
and Rufino Tamayo.
Drawn from the FEMSA Collection in Monterey,
Mexico, the show was made possible through the
support of the FEMSA Collection, the Agencia
Remedios Varo (Gerona, 1908-1963), Papilla estelar
Mexicana de Cooperación International Para el
(Celestial Pablum) (1958), oil on masonite [Museum of
Desarrollo, the Consulado General de México in
Anthropology, Vancouver BC, Oct 25-Mar 30]
Vancouver, the Ollin Mexican Canadian Association
for Arts, Culture and Education, and the Fundación Alejo Carpentier. Mia Johnson
interactive props explore conflict and
forgetting within public and private
contexts, focusing on footage of
Berlin and Belfast; includes documentation from her 2009-2011 performances of VERB WOMAN: a dance of
forgetting; Nov 17-Jan 12 Memory:

Difference & Repetition
SLIDE ROOM GALLERY, VICTORIA BC – Nov 1-Dec 2, 2013 Difference & Repetition, a 30-person group
show, is the curatorial debut of Efren Quiroz, well known around Victoria for his online arts magazine, Exhibit-V. Along with such standard
fare as a calendar of events and a gallery list,
Exhibit-V provides an open forum for local
arts writers, as well as access to Quiroz’s own
body of work – an exhaustive video series
documenting every art opening and happening in the city since the inception of this
project, five years ago.
He writes: “I chose to name the exhibition...‘Difference and Repetition’…based on
French philosopher Gilles Deleuze’s idea of
how a new series brings back an older series
and transforms it into something completely
new so that repetition brings about difference. Instead of looking for a theme and
going to the studios looking for appropriate
work, I thought, wouldn’t it be better to put
together artists from different backgrounds,
Debora Alanna, Difference and Repetition (2013), acrylic and oil, plaster
give them one iconic painting and from that
of Paris, grout, hot glue, mesh (steel, copper, brass) on board [Slide Room
work ask them to create their own original
Gallery, Victoria BC, Nov 1-Dec 2]
painting? I really like Gerhard Richter as an
artist, so I chose Abstract Painting (1985) [Catalogue Raisonné: 587-5] as the source material.”
The show’s participants (which include James Gordaneer and Lance Austin Olsen) are, says
Quiroz, all excited to be part of doing something using Richter’s work as inspiration. Christine Clark

Of Heaven and Earth: 500 Years of Italian Painting
from Glasgow Museums
ART GALLERY OF ALBERTA, EDMONTON AB – Dec 14, 2013-Mar 9, 2014 Of Heaven and Earth: 500 Years of
Italian Painting from Glasgow Museums examines thematic and stylistic development in Italian art from the
late Middle Ages and Renaissance to the 19th century. It includes paintings originating from the principal
artistic centres of Italy, and presents work by such famous artists as Giovanni Bellini, Sandro Botticelli,
Domenichino, Francesco Guardi, Salvator Rosa and Titian alongside work of lesser-known masters.
Of Heaven and Earth is organized in chronological sections. “Tradition & Innovation in the Sacred
Art” showcases religious paintings from the 1300s to 1400s that conveyed Biblical narratives to a largely illiterate public, inspired prayer and
demonstrated the devotion of their
patrons. “The Splendor of the Renaissance” moves from the luminous, masterful perspective paintings of the
1500s to the more highly stylized and
mannered work of the 1600s. “The
Rise of Idealism” illustrates the emergence of landscape in the 1700s as a
subject in itself. “Romanticism,
Revival, and Modernity” presents both
secular neoclassical and genre paintings from the 1800s, an era of national
unification and modernization.

Practical Art History, or
Confessions of a Fine Art Appraiser
Chapter 39. The Case of Nano-D Technology
Several years ago, Paul Biro, son of Canadian-Hungarian painter and art sleuth extraordinaire Geza
Biro, made an important statement about his method of conducting research on paintings of questionable authenticity. He said that he approaches the picture as if he were a detective at a crime
scene seeking to link the material evidence to the perpetrator…in this case via a fingerprint. When
a fingerprint located within the paint or varnish on a painting can be matched with the artist’s
known fingerprint, the identity of the
painting’s creator can be verified.
Verifying the authenticity of an art
object, whether it’s a painting, artist’s
print, sculpture, piece of jewellery or
even a coin, is a serious concern in the
art market. These days, art verification is
no longer only a matter of professional
judgement and opinion: it’s a matter of
science. Thanks to the efforts of the
team at Chali-Rosso Art Gallery in Vancouver, a new diagnostic tool has been
added to the art investigator’s tool kit in
the form of the “nano-D system.” The
Comparison of original and nano-D image of a European oil painting
nano-D system was developed by the
gallery’s owner and director, Susanna Strem, and her team. Strem was addressing authenticity concerns
held by the industry as a whole, as well as by her own gallery’s clients. In her Granville Row gallery, she
presents limited edition original prints by modern masters such as Picasso, Dali, Miró and Chagall.
Using nano-D fingerprint technology, Strem is able to offer documented, indisputable proof of
authenticity. The resulting documents become key and permanent components of the artworks’ provenance and authenticity packages and can prove invaluable for both insurance and resale purposes.
This non-invasive tool is based on reverse engineering. A three-dimensional digital rendering is
made of the surface of the art object at a nano scale. The digital rendering is similar to taking a fingerprint, in that a uniquely identifiable image of a specific section of the artwork is captured. As Strem
explains, by selecting several specific sections of the artwork to sample, enough data can be collected to
complete and preserve the nano-D record. It’s not necessary to render an image of the entire surface.
The digital information is then stored on a DVD, with one copy provided to the client and another
held in a secure, off-site location.
The nano-D system is portable and is operated by a highly trained professional. Its cost is surprisingly affordable, determined largely by where the collection to be documented is located and the size
and number of the pieces in it. The DVD becomes an integral part of the authenticity package and
should accompany the sale if an artwork changes hands. Knowing that the authenticity can be verified
offers people a powerful incentive to purchase artwork.
It seems to me that auction houses, which are in the business of selling only authentic works, should
consider requiring that each work offered at auction be subject to the scrutiny that nano-D technology
provides, because it offers the purchaser a validation of the work’s authenticity. Doing this would further enhance the credibility of an auction house – important in a competitive market culture. And bidders would, I’m sure, like to know that any artworks they were interested in has been verified as authentic by nano-D technology. And so it goes …

Sandra Meigs: The Basement Panoramas
OPEN SPACE GALLERY, VICTORIA BC – Nov 1-Dec 14, 2013 A Canadian visual artist and professor
in the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Victoria, Sandra Meigs is an internationally known
painter and sculptor. Her mysterious but powerful work frequently evokes a dysphoric response in
the viewer. Her simple shapes painted in flat blocks of colour morph under the sensitive eye into
surprisingly complex, and sometimes
horrifying, narratives. She is, perhaps,
to the visual arts what Alice Munro is to
the art of short fiction.
This exhibit is best described in
Meigs’ own words: “The Basement
Panoramas are mural-scale paintings of
four basement spaces. All of the paintings are 6 feet in height and anywhere
from 18 to 46 feet wide. The paintings
have a fresco-like surface…The paint is
applied to a very absorbent ground,
much like gouache, and has a matte finish. The paintings appear to be very
much like drawings. All of the works
contain text, which contributes to their

Susan Point: From Pilchuck to Present
SPIRIT WRESTLER GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Nov 23-Dec 14, 2013 Susan Point is a Coast Salish artist
from the Musqueam Nation in Vancouver, BC. Over the past three decades, she has been instrumental
in re-establishing Coast Salish art in Canada
and the United States. She draws inspiration
from traditional motifs and themes and reinvents them in paper, glass, bronze, wood,
concrete, polymer, stainless steel and cast iron.
Point is well known for her exquisite gold and
silver jewellery, printmaking and commissions
for the Winter Olympic Games in 2010.
The Spirit Wrestler Gallery is currently featuring 20 glass works created by Point at the
Pilchuck Glass School in 2002. She began
preparing for the exhibition last year by working with glass artist Yves Trudeau of Studio One
Glass, using a variety of etched and applied finishes and choosing bases for the pieces.
Point has been honoured with numerous
awards, including the Order of Canada, a
National Aboriginal Achievement Award, a
YWCA Woman of Distinction Award, and a
BC Creative Achievement Award. She has
been appointed to the Royal Academy of Arts, Susan Point, Cedar Root with Salmon (2013), glass (blown and etched),

ALLYN CANTOR
LUCINDA PARKER: ALL CLOUDS CHOOSE THE LOFTIEST PEAK TO PILE
THEMSELVES Laura Russo Gallery, Portland, Nov 7-30 Lucinda Parker
continues to use natural forms as the basis for dynamic abstractions.
The well-known Portland painter builds energetic relationships of
figure and ground with a signature palette of earth tones contrasted
with vibrant yellows and ochres. In this new show, Parker recalls the
large volcanic mountains dominating the Northwest’s skylines. With
her intersecting shapes, textural brushwork and layering of colour,
she shows that the physical attributes of painting remain central in
her bold canvasses.
BEN BUSWELL Upfor Gallery, Portland, Dec 5-Jan 25 Portland artist
Ben Buswell offers a meditation on loss and mourning in his new
series We Live Only Through Ourselves. A response to the passing of
his grandfather, Buswell’s photographs and sculpture become a vehicle for expressing universal reverence for this very human experience. Buswell emphasizes materiality in his work. For him, the accumulation of marks and gestures creates seemingly complex systems
and sensations, echoing the emotional complexities of life itself.
QUALITY IS CONTAGIOUS: JOHN ECONOMAKI AND BRIDGE CITY TOOL
WORKS Museum of Contemporary Craft, Portland, Aug 16-Feb 8 John
Economaki was a highly respected furniture maker until he developed a severe allergy to wood dust, which ended his career in 1983.
This skilled studio artist then turned to making elegantly designed,
heirloom-quality hand tools for woodworkers. Bridge City Tool
Works was born. This retrospective exhibition looks at Economaki’s
work of the last 30 years, with products, sketches and tools from the
innovative Portland company on view for the first time.

MEDITATIONS ON EQUILIBRIUM: WORKS IN GLASS AND PAPER BY
ALEX HIRSCH Oregon Jewish Museum, Portland, Oct 9-Jan 5 Suggesting an internal life in dialogue with the natural world, Portland
artist Alex Hirsch reflects on practices of dance and meditation in
creating delicate works on paper and subtle images in glass. The
properties of her materials are carefully considered to create a fragile
balance in which no component overcomes another. As Hirsch
states, “My body of work utters complex tensions between darkness
and light, singularity and multiplicity, solemnity and levity.”
ROBERT DOZONO: GARBAGE PAINTINGS Blackfish Gallery, Portland,
Nov 5-30 For roughly 20 years, Portland artist Robert Dozono has
been using consumer waste as an energetic contemporary medium to
form multi-textural paintings. Within his richly coloured, irregularly
shaped canvasses, Dozono organizes a plethora of objects that would
otherwise (one hopes) end up in the recycling bin. Plastic lids, random containers and the odd toothbrush handle form the relief surface of these dense and lively compositions which stem from the
artist’s deeply felt sense of environmentalism.

Ann Hamilton: a reading
ELIZABETH LEACH GALLERY, PORTLAND OR – Nov 2, 2013-Jan 11, 2014 Ann Hamilton is internationally
recognized for her large-scale multi-media installations. The artist has a background in textiles and her
works often employ tactile materials in environments shaped by central themes of the metaphoric value
of language and text as they relate to sound, silence and time.
Reflecting a practice of over 20
years, this exhibit includes video,
works on paper and sculptural pieces
that explore the relationship between
the written language and the tangible
experience. Many of the pieces invoke
the idea that the individual manner in
which we read is a subjective act,
where tracing through lines of text
insinuates the act of drawing.
Hamilton is known for the immersive qualities of her poetic installations,
but here uses elements from these larger projects to create prints, video works
and objects of sculpture that are often
made from deconstructed books that
take new forms. The hand is also a Ann Hamilton, (lineament · book/ball) (1994), ball wound from strips of text, book,
large symbol in Hamilton’s work: two wood and glass witrine [Elizabeth Leach Gallery, Portland OR, Nov 2-Jan 11]
video pieces show a set of hands wearing awkward paper gloves. In follow (2011), the gloved hands repetitively draw in circles. This two-channel continuous loop video is about the moment present in the mark-making of a single line.
Also in the show are works from Hamilton’s print series ELOCUTION, which explores silent and aloud
reading that become acts of writing and drawing. For this series, which draws words from Ralph Waldo
Emerson’s essay “Circles”, Hamilton collaborated with printmaking students. The prints echo with multiple individualized impressions and layers of overprinting in rich minimal compositions. Allyn Cantor

SEATTLE ART MUSEUM, SEATTLE WA – Oct 17, 2013-Jan 5, 2014 This extensive survey of Peruvian art
is made up of pieces spanning 3,000 years of cultural history. From ancient relics to the era of modern
art, the thematically organized exhibit includes artwork and artifacts from early civilizations that predate the Incas through the time of Spanish conquest and the influence of Christianity, and into the last
two centuries of artistic independence and the re-emergence of a native aesthetic.
Pre-Columbian and Incan
examples of masterfully crafted
objects and ornamentation in gold,
silver and alloys, as well as masks,
textiles, ceramics and ritual objects,
showcase the artistry of some of the
world’s first sophisticated civilizations. Several of these treasures
have only recently been discovered
and many have rarely been displayed before in the U.S.
The artistic integration after
colonialism is reflected in paintings
rendered with European techniques and objects that blend
indigenous folklore and religious Mochica frontal ornament with feline head and octopus tentacles ending in catfish heads
practices with Christianity. Archae- (100-800 A.D.), gold, chrysocolla, shells [Seattle Art Museum, Seattle WA, Oct 17-Jan 5]
ological photographs from the first
Machu Picchu excavation in 1911 by American explorer Hiram Bingham reveal the unused site after several
centuries, reiterating the legacy of the Incan Empire as an essential part of Peruvian national identity.
Peru’s independence from Spain in the early 19th century yielded the Indigenous movement of social,
political and artistic change. Artists revisited ancient symbols and folk art, seeking a new artistic identity and
authentic expression. The exhibit shows how contemporary Peruvian iconography is informed by the rediscovery of native traditions and aesthetics. Allyn Cantor

LORI NIX: THE CITY G. Gibson Gallery, Seattle, Oct 18-Nov 23 New
York photographer Lori Nix arrives at her dramatic imagery through
meticulously built dioramas of her subjects, like a miniature movie
set that takes the artist several months to construct for each photo. In
this series, we see abandoned interiors of recognizable urban places –
a shoe store, a hair salon and even the Natural History Museum in
New York. The dense theatrical images portray a post-human era
with details so intense that the line between truth and illusion
becomes uncomfortably beautiful.
SHIMMERING TREE: A PROJECTION BY JENNIFER STEINKAMP Tacoma
Art Museum, Tacoma, Nov 9-Jan 26 Jennifer Steinkamp is a Los
Angeles-based installation artist who uses digital projections to transform architectural spaces. She renders captivating and beautifully
detailed imagery with a computer. Her recent work portrays the
magnitude and power of nature through a synthetic experience, in
this case, a single large-scale tree undergoing a year-long cycle in 11
minutes. These living changes are a nod to her mentor, Mike Kelley,
who died in 2012 but has left an instrumental mark on the art world.
GAYLEN HANSEN Linda Hodges Gallery, Seattle, Oct 3-Nov 30 Dogs,
birds, fish, horses and an iconic cowboy figure – usually referred to as
Kernal – are some of the signature elements that continue to populate Gaylen Hansen’s expressive paintings. This distinguished Washington artist, now in his 90s, developed a distinct sense of allegory
that has run throughout his lengthy career. Witty folk-art symbols
and characters are rendered in a vigorous dream world of colourful
compositions and powerful loose brushwork.

MARY IVERSON: SUNK Davidson Galleries, Seattle, Nov 8-30 Mary
Iverson’s work portrays the collision between environmental concerns and rapid globalization. This new exhibit features paintings
based on Yosemite National Park, as well as pieces that depict an
imagined effect of rising sea levels in cities around the world. Iverson
overlays luminous, panoramic scenery with grid-like arrangements of
thin lines and simplified shipping container forms. This visual juxtaposition is both stunning and jarring, pointing to the contradictions
of our industrial ways.
JASON DODGE: WHAT WE HAVE DONE Henry Art Gallery, Seattle, Oct
19-Jan 26 Exploring the poetic potential of blank space, Berlinbased artist Jason Dodge uses an empty gallery as his blank canvas.
His minimal, object-based sculptures come with anecdotes that serve
as titles, contextualizing the spare arrangements of simple materials.
Ultimately, the viewer is meant to conjure personal associations
among objects, text and physical space to define the experience. This
first comprehensive exhibit by Dodge in North America includes
recent and new work and a publication on the project.

collections of costumes and fashion-inspired garments made
entirely of paper for over 15 years of her 40-year career. In this
work, the acclaimed artist references centuries of fashion history
influences, from Queen Elizabeth I to Coco Chanel.
This exhibit focuses exclusively on one of de Borchgrave’s collections: pieces inspired by the work of Spanish-born fashion
designer Mariano Fortuny (1871-1949). Fortuny was best known
for his “Delphos” dresses, which borrowed from the airiness and
loose draping of women’s garments in classical Greece and the
Italian Renaissance. His exquisite use of hand-pleating, customdyed fabrics, and printed velvets and silks lends a timeless artistry
to Fortuny’s elegant dresses.
In her “Fortuny” collection (on show here in its entirety), de
Borchgrave employs many painting and drawing techniques to create the effect of silk and velvet, using media such as gouache, charcoal, oil, watercolour and pastels. Intricate folds mimic pleats, while
detailed stencilling echoes textile designs. The result is an authentic
fabric look in these 35 stunning, three-dimensional paper dresses
and numerous flat costumes and accessories in paper (such as shoes,
jewellery and vases) – all together evoking a true Fortuny-era sensibility of innovatively crafted sculptures. Allyn Cantor

LANCE AUSTIN OLSEN: IMAGES FROM SOUND documents this Victoria artist’s
recent, expressively worked abstractions, including his mixed-media paintings on
paper, his tea and ink drawings and his drypoint and chine-collé prints. Delightfully subtitled “The Garden of Cellular Indecision,” this catalogue describes the
artist’s post-war training in England, move to Canada and breakthough use of a
contact microphone taped to a copper plate to engrave sounds during electroacoustic performances with Jamie Drouin. Also included are short essays by
Philip Willey, Christine Clark and Debora Alanna.

Both show and publication (created in partnership with the Southern Alberta Art
Gallery) focus on a multi-faceted project by Vancouver-based Langergraber,
involving a film trilogy and related sculptures, drawings and photographs. In a science fiction scenario, the protagonist (played by the artist) is transported through
space and time to various significant sites in the U.S. and Canada. Iconic earth art,
spectacular natural formations and other cultural and scientific references
abound, asking us to consider collective memory and human myth-making. The
catalogue includes contributions by Ryan Doherty, Peter Morin, Charlotte
Townsend-Gault, Liz Wylie and the artist himself.

FRYE ART MUSEUM, SEATTLE, WA – Nov 2, 2013 – Feb 2, 2014 German Symbolist painter Franz von
Stuck (1863-1928) was one of the founding members of the Munich Secession, a vanguard movement
that evolved from avant-garde schools of thought. This discerning group organized international exhibitions that highlighted individualism, laying a foundation for many later Modernist developments.
In his day, Stuck (later ennobled Franz Ritter von Stuck) was an acclaimed painter who often portrayed dark mythological subjects in scenes
with a heightened sense of emotion. His dramatic compositions frequently featured strong
tension between darks and lights, often using
solitary figures expressively rendered with
high chromatic contrast.
Stuck’s most famous painting, Die Sünde
(The Sin), was first shown at the Secessionist
Exhibition of 1893 and then at the Third
Annual Exhibition at the Carnegie Institute in
Pittsburg in 1898. The iconic work, seductive
and haunting, was controversial at the time
for depicting a partly clad woman with a snake
slithering over her shoulder. Stuck painted
variations on this same subject in several other
later works, including the 1908 version that is
part of this exhibit.
Stuck was also a proficient sculptor, talented designer, illustrator and architect, and
an influential teacher. Many of his students
went on to become highly recognized in the Franz von Stuck, Lucifer (1890), oil on canvas [Frye Art Museum, Seattle
art world, most notably Paul Klee and Wassi- WA, Nov 2-Feb 2]

Exhibition Catalogues of Interest
KIMSOOJA UNFOLDING is the gorgeously illustrated catalogue to this Koreanborn, New York-based artist’s 30-year retrospective exhibition at the Vancouver
Art Gallery (on until January 26). Although she has produced mesmerizing performance videos, mixed-media installations, sound-inflected sculpture, and
photographs, Kimsooja is most identified with her fabric art, much of it based on
the Korean tradition of bottari (which uses brightly coloured bed covers to wrap
and transport clothing and other household items). Includes four guest essays
and an interview between Kimsooja and VAG chief curator Daina Augaitis.
Hardcover, 184 pages, $48 CAD. Co-published by the Vancouver Art Gallery and Hatje
Cantz Verlag and available through the Vancouver Art Gallery store, 604-662-4706.
INDIAN CANDY: DANA CLAXTON was published in conjunction with the Winsor Gallery exhibition of the same name (which closed November 2). Claxton,
whose family background is Hunkpapa Lakota Sioux, uses paradoxically beautiful strategies to seduce viewers into considering her hard-hitting content. Here,
she examines stereotypes of “the Indian,” mostly in the context of “the Wild
West,” by altering the appearance of archival documents and historical photographs in visually gorgeous ways.
Softcover, 48 pages, $25 CAD. Available at Winsor Gallery, 604-681-4870.
ISABELLE PAUWELS is the major monograph that evolved out of this Vancouver
artist’s 2010 Presentation House Gallery exhibition, B and E. Pauwels’ wholly
original art seeks to “make sense of mediated reality” while confusing and disrupting it. Her idiosyncratic practice ranges across digital collages, video installations, performance works, sculpture, architectural interventions and audio
pieces, yet – as curator Helga Pakasaar writes in this book, Pauwels’ primary
medium is language. Contributions by Juan A. Gaitán, Paul Kajander and
Pauwels herself – and an excerpt from Samuel Beckett’s Molloy.
Hardcover, 131 pages, $35 CAD. Available at Presentation House Gallery, 604-986-1351.
NET-ETH: GOING OUT OF THE DARKNESS documents the multi-venue exhibition of the same name. Timed to coincide with the Vancouver visit by the Truth
and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, the show asked a number of First
Nations artists to reflect on the residential school experience. The resulting works
testify to the trauma experienced by survivors and their descendants. Some of the
art, such as Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun’s mixed-media installation Residential
School Dirty Laundry, make explicit references to sexual abuse. Others, such as
Tania Willard’s suite of digital prints based on First Nations hockey images, propose “spaces at residential schools where children could escape the onslaught of
oppression and could celebrate and be strong.”
Softcover, 96 pages, $25 CAD. Available at Malaspina Printmakers Gallery,
604-688-1724 or [email protected].
ANDREW GRASSIE is the companion publication of this artist’s solo exhibition at
the Rennie Collection at Wing Sang in Vancouver. The Edinburgh-born and London-based Grassie is internationally known for his small photo-realist paintings in
egg tempera, often depicting exhibitions of work by other artists, historic and
contemporary. Invited to visit the Rennie Collection, Grassie responded with a
series of astonishing paintings of artworks and exhibitions that pose probing
questions about agency and originality.
