Exhibition Catalogues | February – March 2013

ELLES@CENTREPOMPIDOU is a large and significant volume chronicling the major artistic themes by an international roster of women artists of the last century. Published for the recent Seattle Art Museum presentation of Elles, the book, like the exhibit, is arranged thematically and filled with colour reproductions and scholarly contributions; the catalogue includes many essays reflecting on gender and art, an extensive illustrated timeline, quotes by featured artists and a detailed resource bibliography.

Softcover, 384 pages, $45 USD. Available at Seattle Art Museum Shop, 206-654-3120

IAN WALLACE: AT THE INTERSECTION OF PAINTING AND PHOTOGRAPHY accompanies the Vancouver Art Gallery’s retrospective (on view through February 24) of this internationally admired, Vancouver-based artist. It also stands on its own as the definitive volume devoted to Wallace’s long and influential career. Essays by a number of esteemed artists, art historians and curators cover an array of themes and ideas, from Wallace’s cinematic influences and allusions to his use of the street, the museum and the studio as sites for his idea-driven practice. Wallace’s own writing is also represented, including his reasoning for his characteristic juxtaposition of abstract painting and photographic imagery.

Hardcover, 352 pages, $59.95 CAD. Available at the Vancouver Art Gallery Store, 604-662-4706 or gallerystore@vanartgallery.bc.ca

STRIDE GALLERY CATALOGUE 2011-2012 is the third in a series of such publications, each documenting a year of exhibition programming in Stride’s three spaces. This numbered, limited-edition catalogue, with its title hand-screened across its modest brown cover, is rich with colour photographs, critical texts, exhibition statements and artists’ biographies. Lively, inventive and challenging, ranging across all forms and disciplines, Stride’s shows are well served by this collectible little book.

Softcover, 98 pages, $15 CAD. Available at Stride Gallery or online through the publications section of the website www.stride.ab.ca

MANUEL IZQUIERDO: MYTH, NATURE AND RENEWAL chronicles the life and art of the distinguished Portland sculptor and teacher who helped bring a new level of sophistication to Oregon modernism in the second half of the 20th century. Throughout his 60-year career, Izquierdo created evocative sculptures in steel, wood and stone, as well as exquisite prints and works on paper. Written by Roger Hull, senior faculty curator at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art, the book was published for the current retrospective and includes over 100 images illustrating Izquierdo’s life and work.

Hardover, 136 pages, $34.95 USD. Available from Hallie Ford Museum, 503-370-6855

ESTHER SHALEV-GERZ is the bilingual catalogue to a solo exhibition of work by this internationally acclaimed artist, organized by the Kamloops Art Gallery and now on view at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery in Vancouver (to April 14). The publication focuses on Shalev-Gerz’s two-channel video installation WHITE-OUT: Between Telling and Listening, featuring the Sami performance artist Asa Simma as she reflects on her life, art, family and cultural identity. It also examines other important solo and collaborative works by the peripatetic, Paris-based artist. With essays by Fanny Soderback, Elizabeth Matheson and Ian Wallace, and transcriptions of Simma’s “telling” of her story.

Hardcover, 96 pages, $30 CAD. Available at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery, 604-822-2759 or the Kamloops Art Gallery, 250-377-2400

Please note: Prices may be subject to additional charges for postage, handling and taxes.
