Loren Lerner
Focusing on the impact their European origins have had on their work, this publication features 11 artists who have immigrated to Canada since the Second World War. Among them are Gershon Iskowitz and Werner David Feist. Iskowitz's drawings illustrate the life of the death camps. Produced at great risk, only three have survived and are presented here. Feist's few remaining photographs of the Bahaus school reveal privleged moments between students and teachers and serve as a reminder of the importance of the Bahaus movement as a whole. With separate sections on Eva Brandl, Angela Grossman, Natalka Husar and others, Lerner explores the ideas and sensations that come from being from elsewhere. Richly illustrated.
Cette publication présente les oeuvres créées par 11 artistes canadiens qui sont venus de l'Europe depuis la Seconde guerre mondiale. L'auteur examine l'impact qu'a eu l'Europe en tant que lieu d'origine de ces artistes. Parmi les artistes, on y retrouve Gershon Iskowitz et Werner David Feist. Les dessins d'Iskowitz illustrent la vie des prisonniers des camps de concentration. Seulement trois de ses dessins, présentés dans cette publication, ont survécus. Les photographies de Feist font découvrir la Bahaus, illustrant la vie quotidienne des étudiants de l'école ainsi que l'influence de cette dernière sur les œuvres de ses étudiants et des générations subséquentes. Il est question ici des idées et des sensations qui découlent du fait de venir d'ailleurs. Parmi les artistes participants, on y retrouve également Eva Brandl, Angela Grossman et Natalka Husar.

Angela Grossman: Correction(s)
Susan Edelstein & Matthew G. Yeager
A series of photographs from the 1930s and 1940s depicting convicts from the British Columbia Penitentiary have been reworked by Grossman (oils, mixed media) and now tell a much different story. The essayists discuss manipulation of the viewer, the construction of identity and the issues of privacy and public domain. Grossman, whose career was launched with the important exhibition, The Young Romantics, has exhibited through Canada and the United States.
