Timeland: 2010 Alberta Biennial of Contemporary Art 

ART GALLERY OF ALBERTA, EDMONTON AB – May 29-Aug 29, 2010 Artists: Paul Bernhardt, Ken 

Buera, David Cantine, The Cedar Tavern Singers (AKA Les Phonoréalistes), Jason de Haan, The Einstein's 

Brain Project, Robert Geyer, Kristin Ivey, Kristopher Lindskoog, Wednesday Lupypciw, Walter 

May, Rita McKeough, Chris Millar, David M.C. Miller Ron Moppett, Lyndal Osborne, Scott Rogers, 

Danny Singer, Justin Waddell, John Will, Chris Willard, Clint Wilson. 

A cross-generational mix of 25 artists, both emerging and established, was selected from 200 applicants 

for Timeland. Installed in the beautiful 

new Art Gallery of Alberta, the show 

examines the first ten years of the 21st 

century, and spans the spectrum of contemporary 

art styles and themes. Curator 

Richard Rhodes, the editor of Canadian 

Art and founder of C Magazine, views this 

time as “a period where the achievements 

and securities of established modernism 

are challenged by the new globalism” 

with “an expanded consciousness of 

world views, histories and cultures”. 

Timeland serves as a conceptual guide 

to the diversity of art in Alberta today. The 

Rita McKeough, Wilderment (2010), mixed media installation [Art Gallery of 

Alberta, Edmonton AB, May 29-Aug 29] 

Alberta landscape, “where space can be 

measured in geological, durational and 

cultural timeframes,” plays a strong role 

in many pieces. Many works acknowledge 

the realities of the 21st century “one-world” planet, where climate change, ecological issues and 

a global economic reversal of fortunes have contributed to a new ethos of uncertainty and humility for 

the western world. 

The biennial exhibition occupies 6,000 square feet of the third floor gallery space. Artworks 

include paintings, prints, sculptures, photography and textiles as well as film, music, video, performance 

and installations. Mia Johnson 

abstract painter, includes canvases 

borrowed from public and private collections; 

Catherine Ross, “Stella 

Mere”, monumental installation made 

up of 750 starfish, each individually 

cast in aluminum that took three years 

to complete and required the help of 

over 20 people; Aug 21-Nov 14 The 

Baroque World of Fernando Bolero, 

retrospective depicts the comedy of 

human life with works in a broad range

CROCKER ART MUSEUM, E. B. CROCKER COLLECTION 1871.217 

www.portlandartmuseum.org 

A Pioneering Collection: Master Drawings 

from the Crocker Art Museum 

PORTLAND ART MUSEUM, PORTLAND OR – Jun 12-Sep 19, 2010 This rare group of masterworks 

from the 15th-19th centuries was selected from one of the most exceptional early collections of 

European drawings in the United States. The Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, California holds 

approximately 1,400 master drawings representing stunning 

examples from major European schools, including 

works by Albrecht Dürer, Fra Bartolommeo, Peter Paul 

Rubens, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, François Boucher and 

Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. 

Founded in 1885 by the Crocker family, the Crocker 

Art Museum is the oldest continuously operating museum 

west of the Mississippi. Edwin B. Crocker and his wife 

Margaret were forward-thinking art patrons committed to 

bringing sophisticated masterpieces to the new state of 

California. Most of the core collection was acquired during 

the Crockers' 1869-1871 European sojourn. 

The 57 works on paper in the exhibition are among the 

highlights of the Crocker Art Museum's impressive holdings, 

which have remained largely unknown outside of 

scholarly circles. The exhibit includes many keystones of 

art history, like Dürer's Female Nude with a Staff, drawn in 

Gérard de Lairesse, Expulsion of Hagar (n.d.), pen 

and reddish-brown ink, brush and grey washes on 

cream laid paper [Portland Art Museum, Portland 

OR, Jun 12-Sep 19] 

1498 soon after his return from Italy. Another notable 

work is Studies of Human Bones by Jan Steven van Calcar, 

who illustrated Andreas Vesalius’ work in some of the first 

anatomical texts ever published. Roelandt Saverij's Dodo 

Birds and a rare double-portrait of Madame de Pompadour 

and her daughter Alexandrine by French court painter 

François Guérin are other prominent examples of the touring exhibition, which will travel to California 

and New York. The exhibition inaugurates the Crocker Art Museum's expansion, which 

includes a dedicated works-on-paper study centre and gallery. Allyn Cantor

Border Zones: New Art Across Cultures 

MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY, VANCOUVER BC – Jan 23-Sep 12, 2010 Border Zones: New Art Across 

Cultures brings together the work of 12 contemporary artists: Laura Wee Láy Láq, Hayati Mokhtar, 

Tania Mouraud, Marianne Nicolson, Edward Poitras, Rosanna Raymond, Dain-Iskandar Said, 

Thamotharampillai Shanaathanan, Prabakar Visvanath, John Wynne, Gu Xiong and Ron Yunkaporta. 

Through their artwork, these artists examine the idea of borders: “not only as lines that divide, 

but also as spaces of encounter and 

exchange, protection and exclusion, 

migration and memory”. The notion 

of borders encompasses geographic 

and political borders as well as racial, 

religious, ethnic, language and other 

cultural boundaries subjected to 

what aboriginal artist Dana Claxton 

calls “the anthro/entho gaze”. 

The exhibited artworks include, 

fittingly, a plethora of installations:

made by Adi Liku Vadranalagi, Fiji), video and gobo projection, audio recording

tography panels with hidden speakers, 

a four-channel video installation, 

an installation of projected images, an installation of 2,000 small white plastic boats, an installation of 

glass boxes with etched and photographic images, a sound and photographic installation for 12 channels 

of audio diffusion, and more. 

Border Zones has an online component with articles on the artists, installation views, video interviews, 

reviews and a blog. Over the course of the exhibition, the site seeks to become an archive of 

ideas about borders: in particular, “how new spaces of thought and meaning are created and contested 

at the boundaries of knowledge, language, art, culture, and politics”.

GALLERY VIEWS 

When Arts funds are threatened, screaming won’t help 

BY ANN ROSENBERG 

Earlier this year, the Penticton Art Gallery installed their Legacies 2010 art exhibition which overlapped 

with the Cultural Olympiad of the 2010 Winter Olympics. According to Director Paul 

Crawford, the mandate of the non-juried exhibit was three-fold: the environment, the cost of the 

Olympics, and B.C.’s cuts to arts funding. He admitted that even 

though it was not always clear which issues were being tackled, 

the messages were well received even in their Conservative 

riding led by M.P. Stockwell Day. 

My favourite submission was a set of postcards by 

octogenarian Pam Chambers called The Arts Are Not a Frill! 

in which she cuts, quite literally, to the chase. Two of the 

postcards contain images that liken slashes in funding to 

butchering. A ballerina screams as she dances despite a 

severed leg and a pianist attempts arpeggios with finger tips 

spurting blood. The artist stands in front of a dark landscape 

which cannot be brightened as he is unable to buy a tube of 

cadmium yellow. 

A similar tactic for jolting the minds of bureaucrats and the 

public was perhaps in response to the thoughtless remark by 

Prime Minister Harper, that “ordinary folks don’t care about 

the arts” and Premier Campbell’s 40% cut to the B.C. Arts 

Council. This tactic, in the form of a circular issued by CAR- 

FAC BC, suggested that artists send the Arts Council a replica 

Pam Chambers, The Arts Are Not a Frill! 

(2010), ink on card, in Legacies 2010 at 

Penticton Art Gallery, Jan 22-Mar 14, 2010 

of a work with 40% of it missing as the on-going letter-writing campaign seemed to have no effect 

on the determination to make ‘arts and culture’ the imminent source of belt-tightening for the 

next three years. 

The enormous amount spent on the Olympics, the Sea to Sky Highway and the Canada Line 

transit system has led also to devastating shortfalls in areas of health and education and of social and 

community services for a population about to be hit with the 

Harmonized Sales Tax. Dozens of protests have taken place 

at the Vancouver Art Gallery and such well-orchestrated 

public events along with e-mail initiatives, social-networking 

and petitions are worthwhile in that they draw attention to 

the cause even if tangible results are few. 

Portland’s ten-year-old arts enterprise, Disjecta, may 

offer some ideas as to how a non-profit arts organization 

can become more stable and achieve autonomy in these trying 

times. According to founding director Bryan Suereth, 

the aim was always to become self-supporting and the first 

Crystal Schenk, Have and Have Not (2006), 

major move in that direction was to relocate away from 

shown at Disjecta for the Portland 2010 Biennial 

(Mar 13-May 30, 2010) 

downtown to a less expensive property in the historic and 

energetic Newton neighbourhood. 

The refurbished former hydraulic shop now contains artists’ studios, a large exhibition and 

rehearsal space, and in the near future a café bar will be added. In co-operation with other galleries, 

Disjecta staged the highly successful 2010 Portland Biennial which showcased fresh works by the 

up-coming artists they are committed to support. One such piece was Crystal Schenk’s shopping 

cart walled with ornate stained glass in-fill and ironically titled, Have and Have Not. The accomplishments 

of Disjecta are reminiscent of the savvy way Vancouver’s Western Front Lodge has continued 

for more than three decades, to present avant-garde programs and exhibitions. 

It seems to me that our mothers had the right idea when they advised us “to stand on our 

own two feet.”

Show of Hands: Northwest Women Artists 1880-2010 

WHATCOM MUSEUM, BELLINGHAM WA – Apr 24-Aug 8, 2010 Show of Hands surveys over a century 

of artwork by women from Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. It includes some poignant 

examples from the history and heritage of the Northwest, 

and demonstrates the depth of artistic ingenuity 

among these women. Concentrating on artists who have 

contributed with distinction to the Northwest School, 

curator Barbara Matilsky has assembled work by 63 

artists with a large range of styles, subjects, and media. 

The selection provides a complex visual overview of the 

artistic accomplishments of women in this region. 

Key figures in the lineage of the Northwest art world 

are Emily Carr, Maude Kerns, Mary Henry and Lucinda 

Parker. Their artwork is represented in this show alongside 

pieces by lesser known women whose work has 

nearly been forgotten. 

Margie Livingston and Victoria Haven created sitespecific 

wall paintings for this exhibit. A large space 

focuses on their biomorphic and geometric abstractions. 

Representational and narrative works by artists like Fay 

Jones and Claire Cowie communicate personal, social, 

historical and environmental issues while others, like 

Marie Watt and Louise Crow, have been influenced by 

Native American culture. 

The cross-section of styles and media includes 

pieces like Imogen Cunningham’s Dream Walking 

Maude Kerns (1876-1965), Composition #85 (In and Out 

of Space) (1951), oil on canvas [Whatcom Museum, 

Bellingham, WA, Apr 24-Aug 8] 

(1968). This photographic image shows a woman blending into nature. Contemporary artists like Sherry 

Markovitz and Diem Chau use craft-based techniques and materials for their sculptures. The landscape 

genre is also well represented. Abby Williams Hill travelled to the Canadian Rockies where she 

painted Lake Louise (1926) and Harriet Foster Beecher captured scenes of the region as it appeared in 

the late 1800s. Allyn Cantor

Bridge City: Links for a Fragile Peninsula, 1895 -1980 

TECK GALLERY, SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY, VANCOUVER BC – Mar 15-Jun 25, 2010 

These images of local bridge construction reveal the universal gracefulness and ‘dynamic form’ of steel 

and concrete in the service of making new transportation links. 

The city of Vancouver and its surrounding municipalities and cities were once a series of disconnected 

villages. The waterways separating the various regions are linked today by numerous bridges. The 

concept of “Greater Vancouver” depends to a great extent on their construction. Photographs by 

Leonard Frank and Otto Landauer document 

local bridge erection and capture both the 

difficulties and the triumphs. 

The photos for the exhibit were selected 

from the Leonard Frank Photos Studio 

Collection of the Jewish Museum & Archives 

of British Columbia, which includes 39,000 

photographic images taken between 1880 

and 1983. The studio was founded by 

Leonard and Bernard Frank and later purchased 

by Otto F. Landauer. The years 1946 

to 1971 in particular were a heyday for Modernist 

influence on Vancouver’s architecture

River, BC. February 23, 1962 [Teck Gallery, SFU Vancouver Campus,

BC, Leonard Frank Photos Studio. 

and transportation infrastructure. These 

three decades witnessed the virtual rebuilding 

of Vancouver’s central business district. 

The subject of bridges in the 21st Century 

raises questions of their fragility in the face 

of earthquakes, rising sea levels and other 

natural events; the cost-effectiveness of their maintenance and replacement, the aesthetics of their 

design and construction, and the socio-geopolitical forces involved in building and maintaining 

structures designed to integrate different municipalities with different agendas. Mia Johnson

Fox, Fluevog & Friends: The story behind the shoes 

MUSEUM OF VANCOUVER, VANCOUVER BC – May 14-Sep 26, 2010 John Fluevog and Peter Fox 

are well-known and well-loved names in the fashion industry. The first to import Dr. Martens 

shoes into North America, Fox and Fluevog formed a partnership in 1970 to design and sell stylish 

shoes. Fox, Fluevog & Friends surveys the designers’ formative years in Gastown in the 1970s 

to John Fluevog’s independent work today. Approximately 150 pairs of shoes dating from 1968 to 

2000 are featured along with photographs, catalogues, 

newspaper articles, sketches and client comments. 

Fluevog’s avant-garde designs, many using orthopaedic 

air-filled soles and styled with swirly, colourful patterns, 

have included platform shoes, Angel boots, ultra-pointytoed 

Euro styles and handmade wooden clogs (the latter 

was the handiwork of their collaborator Ken Rice). 

Inspired by Art Deco and often with messages engraved in 

the soles – such as “Resists alkali, water, acid, fatigue and 

Satan” – the unique styles coupled with Fluevog’s skill at 

branding have earned him a cult-like following. Fluevog 

today has stores in Vancouver, Seattle, San Francisco, Los 

Angeles, Chicago, Montreal, Toronto, Boston and New 

York and wholesales shoes to 60 resellers in the U.S. and 

Canada. 

In the early 1980s, Fox went on to set up four successful 

shops in New York, where he specialized in silk-andsatin 

Louis-heeled shoes. His exquisite illustrations and 

advertisements feature gorgeous Renaissance-like designs 

that made these shoes among the most coveted in New 

York. Mia Johnson

Tributaries: Reflections of Aiko Suzuki 

JAPANESE CANADIAN NATIONAL MUSEUM, BURNABY BC – Jun 30-Aug 28, 2010 Tributaries: Reflections 

of Aiko Suzuki is a memorial to artworks created by Toronto artist Aiko Suzuki between 1967- 

2005, before her untimely death from cancer. Suzuki used materials like branches, yarn, bamboo, 

copper wire, aluminum screening, wood dowels, steel, Plexiglass and water to create dramatic textile 

installations, abstract paintings, monoprints and video installations. Her heavy curtain-like 

installations of fibre, some mounted in two-storey spaces, are particularly spectacular. 

The memorial exhibition includes original pieces by her as well as installations by three women 

inspired by Suzuki: writer Joy Kogawa, music composer Ann Southam and visual artist Grace 

Channer. In collaboration with filmmaker Midi Onodera, they have created a piano piece, a video 

poem and an animation that variously pay 

tribute to Suzuki and complement her work. 

Key pieces from Suzuki’s legacy include 

important early fibre works known for their 

enormous scale and sculptural qualities, as 

well as several monoprints, paintings and a 

powerful charcoal triptych. Lyra Refrain is a 

smaller version of the monumental Lyra, 

which hung in the Metro Toronto Reference 

Library between 1981-2004. 

Tributaries is the first retrospective exhibit 

of Aiko Suzuki's work in Western Canada. 

She was born in Vancouver in 1937 and 

interned in Slocan City during WWII. In 1994, 

Aiko founded the not-for-profit Gendai 

Aiko Suzuki, Lyra Refrain (1984), seven pieces, fibre and wood 

dowels wrapped in plastic. [Japanese Canadian National Museum, 

Burnaby BC, Jun 30-Aug 28] 

Gallery at the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre in Toronto. As a powerful feminist, leader and 

educator, for 25 years she was a mentor to many artists, and was involved in arts education with

in 2005 was elected to membership in the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts. Mia Johnson

Kathryn Altus: Some Seas 

LISA HARRIS GALLERY, SEATTLE WA – Jun 3-28, 2010 In her new exhibition, Some Seas, Seattlebased 

painter Kathryn Altus presents scenes of coastal waters from the Pacific Northwest, Asia and 

the Middle East. The theme allows ‘water’ to act as a continuum 

across time and distance, and to unify such remote places as the 

Dead Sea and the Columbia River. Although Altus paints specific 

sites, she states, “...my wish is to transcend place and to 

address the interrelationship of nature and civilization”. 

Her most ambitious piece, Big Pacific, is a large-scale 

work in five panels of graduating sizes. The painting depicts 

the span of ocean from the Washington coastline to Hong 

Kong. The panorama recalls a journey and the vastness she 

suggests is very alluring. Altus' soft-focus painting style and 

gentle palette is reminiscent of artwork done in pastels. It 

lends a dreamlike mood to her compositions and further connects 

subjects from different locales. 

Sometimes Altus uses copper leaf in her oil paintings, 

which adds depth and luminosity to the surfaces. The quiet 

transitions she achieves between form and ground are built 

up over time with multiple glazes. She gives as much attention 

to the open spaces as she does to the landscape 

Kathryn Altus, Tanker Traffic (2010), waterbased 

oil on canvas [Lisa Harris Gallery, 

Seattle WA, Jun 3-28] 

forms. The subdued tone of her work and ability to reduce the 

landscape to subtle gradations of colour and form evoke a solace 

that is contemplative and inviting. Allyn Cantor 

and sculpture, including work by five 

women artists, Diana Dean, Stefanie 

Denz, Anais La Rue, Birgit Bateman 

and owner Andrea Collins.

Andrew Owen (A01): As It Is: And/Or/Neither/Nor 

MARION SCOTT GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – May 22-Jul 4, 2010 A pioneer of Toronto’s street art 

scene in the early 1980s, Andrew Owen is a conceptual artist known as A01. As It Is: 

And/Or/Neither/Nor, a retrospective exhibition and his first solo show in a Vancouver gallery, 

brings together more than 20 works, 

including paintings, photo-based works 

and pieces made from repurposed materials. 

Among the most popular of the Montreal-born 

artist’s works are poster hoardings 

from the Downtown Eastside called 

Excavations, which he peels to reveal 

numerous patterns and areas of text. 

Inspired by David Hockney’s large photo 

assemblages, his Re-photo-cubic Portrait 

Tableaux incorporate photographs from a

multitude of locations, perspectives and 

timeframes in new collages featuring street 

people, residents, construction workers, 

street signs and weathered surfaces. A new 

collection of spray-painted flowers, Impressions, 

is quickly gaining acclaim for its raw edge and strong graphic appeal. Using real flowers as 

natural stencils, Owen sprays paint onto canvas to create actual-scale images of the plants. 

Owen was a commercial artist before living and studying in India, Korea, Japan and Taiwan in 

the 1990s. He returned to Canada in 2004 where he lives and works in both Vancouver and 

Toronto. Mia Johnson

Verne Harrison: Circa 1978 

JACANA CONTEMPORARY ART, VANCOUVER BC – Jun 16-Jul 11, 2010 In Circa 1978, Verne Harrison 

presents a series of giclée prints enlarged from Polaroids he took while working in the Alberta oil 

fields. Interspersed with a few glorious shots of landscape and skies, his pictures of small-town Canada 

are populated with small-town people wearing late-70s clothes and hairdos. The original snapshots were 

each digitally printed 18 x 22 inches for the show. While the 

pictures create a portrayal of workers during the oil boom, 

they also capture in a nostalgic way – to a great extent due to 

the post-apocalyptic lighting and colours of the Polaroid 

medium – the sensibilities of the 70s in all its funkiness. 

Verne Harrison was born in Sarnia, Ontario in 1955. He 

completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at the University 

of Western Ontario in 1985 after studying Fine Art at Fanshawe 

College in London, Ontario. He continues to live and 

work in Guelph, Ontario. 

Harrison, who uses a wide variety of media, has been 

exhibiting since 1982 in a variety of galleries. From self-portraits 

to public sculpture, he has an ironic style with a strong 

cultural bias and sense of humour. His work is in several 

public and private collections in Canada and the United 

States. In recent years he has exhibited in Shakespeare Made 

in Canada: Finding the Bard in Contemporary Portraiture Verne Harrison, #7 Dan, giclée on Oce photo paper, 

(2007), at the Macdonald Stewart Art Centre (2006), and in edition of 1 (1978) [Jacana Contemporary Art, 

Transactions: 11 Artists from Canada at the Chongqing Art Vancouver BC, Jun 16-Jul 11] 

Museum, China (2008). Currently he is the gallery co-ordinator 

at the Macdonald Stewart Art Centre where he has been employed since 1992. Mia Johnson 

Brook Gallery represents painters and 

sculptors from BC and other regions. 

Also serves as a special event reception 

venue with in-house cocktail and 

dinner catering, and a Saturday and 

Sunday public brunch service.

Sudden Frost 

ELISSA CRISTALL GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – July 2-Aug 14, 2010 For the third consecutive summer, 

Elissa Cristall Gallery is presenting an independently-curated exhibition. Toronto-based educator 

Pete Smith, who is also an artist with Elissa Cristall, earned his 2007 Master of Fine Arts at the University 

of Guelph. For this year’s exhibit, he has chosen the work of eight Ontario artists. Sudden 

Frost includes drawings, paintings, printmaking, sculpture and video by Michel Daigneault, Sky 

Glabush, Will Gorlitz and Patrick Mahon. 

Michel Daigneault is a visual arts professor at York University who paints abstractions of organic 

shapes contrasted with architectural 

planes. His work is represented in many 

public collections including the National 

Gallery of Canada, Musée d'art contemporain 

de Montréal, Musée National des 

Beaux-Arts du Québec, Joliette Museum 

and the Canada Council Art Bank. Sky 

Glabush has a Masters of Fine Arts from 

the University of Alberta (2006) and now 

teaches at the University of Western 

Ontario. He is known for his quiet paintings 

of suburban houses in the region. 

Will Gorlitz is a Professor of Studio 

Will Gorlitz, Peking (2008), oil on canvas [Elissa Cristall Gallery, Vancouver 

BC, Jul 2-Aug 14] 

Art at the University of Guelph. His 

unusual oil on canvas paintings of animals 

and the wilderness are semi-narrative and 

have been described as “strong and sensual”. Patrick Mahon, also at Western, has a two-fold interest 

in topologies and patterning, which he has explored through paintings, printing on Plexiglass and 

massive site works. His artwork has been exhibited in China and nationally at Museum London, the 

Art Gallery of Windsor, the Southern Alberta Art Gallery and the Kamloops Art Gallery. Mia Johnson

Practical Art History or 

Confessions of a Fine Art Appraiser 

Chapter 22. The Case of the Coy Cornelius Krieghoff 

In 2006, my client purchased a painting entitled Trapper Returning at Sunset at an auction 

house, as a work “attributed to Cornelius Krieghoff”. The auction house may have, without due 

diligence, offered the work as an “attributed to” to avoid any liability. The same painting appears to 

have been sold some thirty years earlier by Sotheby Parke-Bernet (Canada) Ltd. as a signed work 

by Cornelius Krieghoff, meaning that in the best judgement of the listing auction house, it was a 

work by Krieghoff. About ten years ago, what appears to have been the same painting was sold at 

Joyner Waddington's Canadian Fine Art and was listed in their catalogue as a Krieghoff. 

Most fine art auction houses publish interpretations, under their terms and conditions, as to 

what is meant by such terms as: attributed to, studio of, circle of, and state that they are “provided 

for your guidance”. The opinion offered by an auction house is based on their judgement and is not 

always accurate, however, the public perception still remains that if the auction house declares that 

a painting is “in our best judgement” a genuine work, then indeed it must be so. 

The term “best judgement” is used by major auction 

houses to declare that a painting is by the named artist, 

and is the most precise determination of authorship the 

auction house can offer. This interpretation encourages a 

premise that the purchaser, when selling the painting, 

can offer as a declaration of a level of genuineness, the 

fact that he purchased the work from an auction house 

contingent upon how it was described in the catalogue. 

It is not unreasonable to assume that this perception 

perpetuates a culture of accepted practice in the marketplace 

as a means of encouraging commerce. The converse 

is also perceived as being true, in that if the auction house 

declares a painting to be “attributed to”, then it is indeed 

of lesser quality and therefore commands less value than 

a work by the named artist. 

The term “attributed to” has different meanings 

when used by different art auction houses. Heffel Fine 

Art Auction House uses the term to describe a work as 

“executed in whole or in part by the named artist”. 

Presumably this means the work may be partly or 

completely painted by the artist. This is a precise definition meant to include works that may 

have undergone undetermined restoration or conservation over the years (presumably as the 

result of damage or deterioration) by someone other than the artist. It obviously does not give 

any indication as to how much of the painting is or is not by the named artist. Therefore, this 

single category appears to include both indicators of authorship. 

Sotheby’s takes a more art historical stylistic approach by using the phrase “in our opinion, on 

the basis of style, the work can be ascribed to the named artist”. This term suggests precision and 

unambiguity. It confidently defers to the fact that it is an opinion, however it alludes to the fact that 

a stylistic investigation has been made and a reasonably credible conclusion reached. In other 

words, there is a more certain indication that due diligence has been performed. 

Fortunately, my client’s Krieghoff has recently been verified by the recognized authority on 

Cornelius Krieghoff as being by the named artist, and dating from about 1860.

Conservator’s Corner 

A Relocation Project 

BY CHERYLE HARRISON 

CONSERV1@TELUS.NET 

I saw the butterfly as a powerful symbol of the natural and spiritual will to survive through change and 

transformation.—JACK SHADBOLT (1909-1998) 

The way we look at art is significantly influenced by 

the environment it is presented in. A painter’s brush 

moves across the surface of a canvas; or a tool translates 

the imagination of a sculptor. Once completed, an 

artwork’s existence may include its relocation to various 

places. The aesthetics of a location as well as activities 

in the area can influence an artwork’s meaning and 

value. For example, an emblematic painting or sculpture 

may be infused with added poignancy or drama if 

displayed in a church or a theatre. 

The relocation of Jack Shadbolt’s Primavera is 

presently underway. In 1987, in collaboration with 

Alan Wood and Greg Bullen, this commissioned art 

project was originally installed onto the concrete mezzanine 

wall of the MacMillan Bloedel building in downtown 

Vancouver, B.C. Primavera, a sizeable painted 

wood sculptural image depicting two butterflies flanking 

a central chrysalis, has been a dynamic fixture of 

the architectural cityscape. 

Primavera has been sold and is designated to join 

the art collection of the Okanagan Valley winery, Tantalus 

Vineyard. In preparation for its move, my conservation 

treatment of this unique three-dimensional artwork has just been completed with the 

cleaning and removal of twenty-three years of dust and grime. Repairs included the carving of 

a broken and missing portion of the central chrysalis. Conservation treatment recovered the 

brilliant colour, compositional 

movement, and exuberant imagery. 

A professional company will be 

installing Primavera at its new location. 

The display of an artwork is not 

merely a matter of hammering a nail 

into a wall or shifting the piece 

for the perfect position. Preparations 

for this installation included acquiring 

information relative to the winery’s 

events, ongoing operations, and 

other environmental considerations 

A preliminary winery visit was 

necessary to assess the facility’s 

structural characteristics and various 

Artwork in its original location in the lobby of the MacMillan Bloedel building 

display options. The visual impact of 

this vibrant artwork demands a 

conscientious selection for its location, 

which will assure the artwork’s successful integration with the environment of the winery. 

The relocation of Shadbolt’s creation from a bustling urban location to a pastoral and intimate 

setting will offer viewers a different visual and spiritual experience.

Stephan Soihl: Time-Variable Volumes 

BLACKFISH GALLERY, PORTLAND OR – Jun 1-26, 2010 Stephan Soihl is an Oregon sculptor who 

uses layers of resin to create transparent coloured forms suspended in space. In his latest series, 

Time-Variable Volumes, the Blackfish Gallery co-founder has injected clear glass shapes with motor 

oil and transmission fluid. The pieces are fashioned from transparent plastics, electronic mechanisms, 

coloured oil and various 

structural and supportive metal finishings. 

Controlled by timers, the sculptures 

are set in motion by small 

direct-current motors that cause the 

liquid to move at a slow pace. The 

pieces move up, down or in circular 

movements for a period of time and 

then become stationary. The fluid 

material gently continues its fluctuation 

until levelled by gravity. The 

action suggests the movement of 

water and many other cyclic processes 

that occur in the natural world. 

Although these works recall an 

experiment in chemistry or physics – 

Stephan Soihl, Time-Variable Volumes, view 1 (2010), Plexiglass, oil, brass, 

wood, motor, electronics [Blackfish Gallery, Portland OR, Jun 1-26] 

as if the sculptures are meant to measure volumetric qualities or capacity for movement of various 

fluid substances – there is a refined aesthetic principle in the fundamental behaviour of solid and liquid 

elements. They softly interact like a familiar continuum. 

Soihl's calculated forms are clean and elegant. They speak simply of the symbiotic relationships 

of shape, material, and motion. The kinetic pieces feel light and rhythmic, and evoke a quiet contemplative 

space on the cusp where science meets poetry. Allyn Cantor

Will Rafuse, Boots by Dayton (2010), oil on canvas 

[Ian Tan Gallery, Vancouver BC, Jul 10-29] 

IAN TAN GALLERY, VANCOUVER, BC – Jul 10-29, 2010 Two realist artists are being featured at Ian Tan 

Gallery in July. Will Rafuse graduated from Capilano College and began selling his illustrations 

through Canadian Art Prints before turning to painting. His signature style is recognizable from 

movies and television shows. A slightly wonky, hand-built look and his content – cute European 

restaurants and comical waiters – have recently evolved 

into a more slick and polished advertising style. Once 

inspired by the highly-mannered work of Modigliani and 

Botero, he is currently influenced by Edward Hopper and 

Andy Warhol. 

Cats and dogs wearing shirts and dresses have made 

way for paintings depicting neon signs from such Vancouver 

landmarks as the Dairy Queen, The Only Sea Foods 

restaurant on Hastings, and Seattle's Elephant Super Car 

Wash, as well as still lifes of fast food items. Neon signs, 

popular in the 50s and 60s, today are all but vanished 

landmarks of an era that elicits nostalgia. With his current 

interest in strong colour and cultural icons, neon signs are 

an attractive new subject. Rafuse is currently living and 

painting in Montreal, Quebec, 

Tim Fraser is a member of the Federation of Canadian 

Artists and a Fine Arts graduate of Surrey’s Kwantlen 

College with a background in commercial art. He has 

exhibited with Ian Tan since 2005 and has become 

well-known for his dreamy and curvaceous paintings of 

the Vancouver seawall, with lollipop trees in luminous colours. Fraser regularly visits Stanley 

Park to capture new vistas of the seawall. Mia Johnson

John Dann: Painted Shapes 

PERA ART GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – May 6-Jun 18, 2010 Montreal-born John Dann is an American 

sculptor who recently moved to Canada and divides his time between Vancouver and New 

Brunswick. In earlier work, he created bronze portraits of some of Canada’s most prominent citizens, 

including Wilder Penfield, John Diefenbaker, Glenn Gould, John A. MacDonald and Lester 

Pearson, as well as interactive, tactile installations. Since moving to Vancouver last year after 25 

years in Massachusetts, he has created new work described as “bold, yet whimsical and joyous”. 

Dann’s sculptures, painted shapes and paintings on board and canvas share a mentality both 

loose and totemic. He appears to be mainly concerned with exploring modernist questions of 

weight and gravity, picture-planes and foreground/background using both two and three-dimensional 

approaches. For his latest series, Painted Shapes, he designed strangely organic shapes on the 

computer then had them cut from large sheets of aluminum. Using a palette of unearthly colours, 

deeply saturated in tone, he painted the cut-outs with areas of colour. 

Dann’s biography reveals that he has been experimenting with form and figure for 35 years and 

is mostly self-taught. He 

spent some time at the 

Montreal Museum School 

of Fine Arts and at the 

Accademia delle Belle Arti 

di Carrara, Italy, then travelled 

and worked in a number 

of Italian foundries with 

John Dann, Dragon, alkyd on wood (2005) [Pera Art Gallery, Vancouver BC, May 6-Jun 18] 

bronze and marble. In 2005 

he began painting and 

using colour in his work. In 

keeping with his belief that art should be non-exclusive and democratic in nature, the Pera Gallery 

show includes a piece that can be walked on. Mia Johnson

Jun 22-Oct 11] Collection of the artist 

www.bellevuearts.org 

Arline Fisch: Creatures from the Deep 

BELLEVUE ARTS MUSEUM, BELLEVUE WA – Jun 22-Oct 11, 2010 Arline Fisch is known for her pioneering 

use of textile techniques to create sculptural jewellery and metal body adornment. During 

her career, Fisch has integrated the weaving, knitting, crocheting 

and braiding of silver and copper wire into unique 

jewellery pieces. This is the first time Fisch has applied her 

methods to larger-scaled sculptures. 

Creatures from the Deep was commissioned by the Racine 

Art Museum in Wisconsin and originally shown as an aquarium-like 

installation in several windows before travelling to 

the Bellevue Arts Museum. The project challenged the artist 

to bring the intimacy of wearable pieces into a grand allencompassing 

scale. An ensemble of jellyfish families are suspended 

from the ceiling while groupings of sea anemone and 

coral formations rest below. The larger-than-life sea creatures 

in the lively undersea environment are crocheted or knit from 

Fisch’s signature colour-coated small gauge wire. Delicate 

streaming forms of varying species float in space, suggesting 

an ephemeral quality of underwater life. 

Arline Fisch had a long and distinguished career as a Professor 

of Art at San Diego State University, where she founded 

the jewellery program in the department of Applied Art in the 

1960s. She is a perennial figure in the metals community and 

has influenced the development of many contemporary jewellery 

artists. Her work has been exhibited internationally and 

is included in many prominent collections such as the Victoria 

& Albert Museum in London, the Vatican Museum in Rome and the Smithsonian American Art 

Museum in Washington, DC. She is the author of the book, Textile Techniques in Metal: for Jewelers, 

Textile Artists and Sculptors. Allyn Cantor

VISCERAL BODIES, is a beautiful volume of colour photos from the recent Vancouver 

Art Gallery’s Visceral Bodies exhibition curated by Daina Augaitis. During 

the Cultural Olympiad, Visceral Bodies showcased artworks featuring portrayals 

of the human body created during the last 20 years. The body is portrayed as an 

evolving symbol, socially and culturally charged. Accompanied by a foreword 

and curatorial essay, the book provides full-page pictures of works in the show 

alongside one-page biographies on each artist. 

64 pages, softcover, $27.95 CDN. Available from the Gallery Store at the Vancouver Art

SURREAL. REAL. IDEAL: THE ART OF JOICE M. HALL is a full-colour catalogue 

produced by the Kelowna Art Gallery for Hall’s 2010 retrospective exhibit. A 

series of essays by curator Patricia Ainslie traces Hall’s accomplishments biographically 

and stylistically for over 40 years, and describes how the concepts of 

‘surreal’, ‘real’ and ‘ideal’ have driven her hyper-realist painting. Interspersed 

throughout the chapters are colour images of Hall’s artwork. From beginning to 

end, the book is a major piece of research and writing by Ainslie, former Glenbow 

Museum Vice-President of Collections. 

96 pages, softcover, $15 CDN. Available through www.abcartbookscanada.com

Vinci during the winter of 1510-1511, when he was 58. The original 18 loose 

sheets, known as the Anatomical Manuscript A, are crammed with 240 drawings 

and dense notes on the structural, mechanical anatomy of the human body. The 

large reproductions show his scientific depictions in exquisite detail.

Japanese Prints: Tradition & Influence 

CULLOM GALLERY, SEATTLE WA – Jun 3-26, 2010 Cullom Gallery inaugurates 

its new gallery space in Seattle’s Nihonmachi (Japantown) district 

with an exhibit that shows traditional Japanese prints from the 19th and 

20th centuries alongside prints by contemporary artists who have been 

strongly influenced by the styles and techniques of traditional Japanese 

printmaking. The exhibit explores thematic and stylistic relationships 

between the two. 

Annie Bissett practices a traditional Japanese-style of printmaking 

developed in the days of ukiyo-e prints. Unlike Western printmaking, 

which usually employs a press and oil-based ink, these woodblock 

prints are created by hand-carving a separate block for each colour and 

design. The reverse side of fine Japanese papers are rubbed against the 

blocks with a baren (a disc-shaped tool), using water-based pigment to 

transfer the print. 

In a recent suite of 20 prints, Bissett imagined the mindset of American 

Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower. A print depicting the suicide of 

Dorothy Bradford, wife of Pilgrim leader William Bradford, is paired 

with a Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892) print, Moon of Pure Snow at 

Asano River (1885), which captures the tragic suicide of Chikako, who 

sacrificed her life to draw attention to her father’s imprisonment. 

Another pair of work points to similarities between the landscapes 

of Berlin-based contemporary artist Eva Pietzcker and Hiroshi Yoshida 

(1876-1950). Both artists gathered inspiration from far-reaching travels 

and interpret the landscape with lightness. Their gentle layers of watercolour 

capture the essence of mist, sunlight, shadow and open spaces.

Kerry James Marshall 

VANCOUVER ART GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – May 8-Jan 3, 2011 Kerry James Marshall is a 

prominent American artist well-known for portrayals of African-American people that are both 

affectionate and political. Graphic layers of overpainting, text and symbols lend a decorative element 

to the works, which combine acrylic, collage, and glitter on fibreglass and PVC, or on canvasses 

often more than 10-feet wide. 

Born in Birmingham, Alabama, Marshall grew up in South Central Los Angeles and now lives 

in Chicago. He earned his BFA at the Otis 

Art Institute, Los Angeles and for many 

years taught at the School of Art and 

Design at the University of Illinois, Chicago. 

Formative years living in Watts, 

observing the Black Power and Civil Rights 

movements, led to the development of his 

signature style of narrative paintings featuring 

black figures. Using themes of 

domestic life, urban environments and 

popular culture, he confronts racial stereotypes 

by positioning his figures in settings 

that emphasize historic injustices and 

Kerry James Marshall, Better Homes, Better Gardens (1994), acrylic 

and collage on unstretched canvas [Vancouver Art Gallery, Vancouver 

BC, May 8-Jan 3, 2011] 

racism. 

The Vancouver Art Gallery is exhibiting 

19 pieces Marshall has created since the 

1990s. Paintings of public housing are covered 

with graffiti-like gestures that seem to negate the governments’ efforts. Souvenir paintings 

from the late 90s, dedicated to the American Civil Rights Movement, are overlaid with 

silkscreened images of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr. and John and Bobby Kennedy. 

Vignettes are idyllic images of couples set in 18th century-like pastoral scenes – settings from 

which black people were clearly missing at the time. Mia Johnson
