Thaddeus Howlonia: Station, Irving Architectural Landscapes
Shauna McCabe & Annmarie Adams
The Irving Oil Company has long played an important role in the economic and cultural landscape of Eastern Canada. Its holdings, ranging from the country's largest refinery to the western hemisphere's first deep-water terminal, also include the ubiquitous Irving gas station. Thaddeus Howlonia, with his trademark panoramic photography, has documented dozens of these structures over twenty five years, often photographing the same station years apart. His work reveals the complex interaction these boxy modernist structures with their material clutter have with a region known for its traditional, picturesque vernacular. In English and French.
La Irving Oil Company a joué un rôle important dans le développement des paysages culturels des provinces des maritimes. Le photographe Thaddeus Howlonia s'intéresse ici particulièrement aux stations-service de la compagnie qui font depuis plusieurs décennies partie du paysage social. En photographiant ces stations, certaines à différentes époques, Howlonia nous révèle l'interaction complexe entre ces structures modernistes et leur région réputée pour son architecture vernaculaire, traditionnelle et pittoresque.

From Our Land : The Expo 67 Craft Collection / De notre pays : la Collection canadienne d'artisanat d'Expo 67
Lee Plested
Gathered from across the country to be displayed at Expo 67, these works were subsequently purchased by the gallery. This publication provides insight into the 60s craft movement and its interpretation within contemporary art and culture at one historical moment. Abundantly illustrated, this publication explores issues of collecting on a national level. With dozens of artist biographies. In English and French.
Cette publication nous présente une exposition d'oeuvres d'artisanat originalement mise sur pieds le Pavillon du Canada lors d'Expo '67. Cet assemblage d'oeuvres était un geste conscient de synthèse : les matériaux, pratiques et régions géographiques variés de cette collection ont faits ressortir une iconographie et un style nettement canadien via son évocation de l'identité, de l'histoire et de l'expérience nationale. En français et anglais.
