Ian Carr-Harris

Telling Stories, Secret Lives
Jan Allen, Steven Matijcio et al

Inspired by an upsurge in the use of narrative in contemporary art, this publication reconsiders installation and sculptural works by taking into account their narrative potential and by making tangible the imaginative trajectories they embody. To accomplish this, seven writers respond to works by seven artists. Through prose and poetry they take approaches ranging from counterpoint to empathetic engagement with their subject work. This inventive publication presents each text adjacent to its its subject image, an essay, as well as catalogue entries on each of the works with summary texts, artists' statements and bibliographical notes. Featured artists are Dorothy Cameron, Ian Carr-Harris, Robin Collyer, Vera Frenkel, Myfanwy MacLeod, Sandra Meigs and Terry Pfliger.

Revealing the Subject
Shannon Anderson

An overview of the galleries' permanent collections through portraiture. By looking at work produced since the late 1970s by such artists as Ian Carr-Harris, Marlene Creates, Angela Grauerholz and Attila Richard Lucacs, Anderson follows many threads, including the radical shifts in technology and the fracturing of the concept of identity. She concludes that portraiture, no matter the medium, responds to these states of change.
