ART GALLERY OF ALBERTA, EDMONTON AB – Apr 14-Jun 10 China Sensation is a major exhibition
of work by 22 contemporary Chinese artists living in Chengdu, Sichuan in the People’s Republic
of China. The city of Chengdu is the economic and cultural centre of China’s most populated
province and has been well situated to adopt and absorb western art practices.
Following the enormous success of the first Shanghai Biennale, Chengdu inaugurated its own
Biennale in 2001. Since that time the
community has seen increased participation
by curators, local collectors, foreign artists
and international museums. Today there are
over 20 museums in Chengdu.
The artwork in the China Sensation
exhibit shows a transition from traditional
Chinese landscape painting and calligraphic
styles to work informed by media awareness
and conceptual irony. While images by the
more senior artists are clearly linked to long
historical traditions, the art of younger artists
has been greatly influenced by western
entertainment and media images – including

Alberta, Edmonton AB, Apr 14-Jun 10]
lively collage-inspired works, new forms of photography, Internet-inspired subject matter and
video art. Overriding all is a sense of today’s global community combined with an Asian style and
subject matter. China Sensation is a unique opportunity to see the work of artists from a rapidly
evolving country. Mia Johnson

Vivian Thierfelder: Lux Eterna
DOUGLAS UDELL GALLERIES, EDMONTON AB – Apr 5-21 Vivian Thierfelder was born in Alberta
and received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Alberta in 1970. Before turning
to painting full-time in 1983, she worked in exhibit design
and construction at the Provincial Museum of Alberta, as a
preparator for the Natural History Diorama Program, and in
the graphics department of a major telecommunications
firm.
Over the past 30 years, Thierfelder has developed an
enviable style of watercolour painting. Her technique
employs rich and saturated paints in a manner more typical
of oils or acrylics, and her treatment of colour and light is
breathtaking. Her subjects range from simple fruit and
flowers to complex still life arrangements of postcards,
tropical flowers, silverware, fine china and photographs, all
with dense and intricate patterns. The images are filled with
movement and radiant light, “celebrating the lushness of the
natural world” as she puts it.
Thierfelder is a member of the Canadian Society of
Painters in Watercolour and the Royal Canadian Academy

period of fun-loving flappers and fabulous
fashions. It was also a time of

power in a consumer society. Exhibits

BEHIND THE SCENES
Inherent Vice
This “Behind the Scenes” topic is not about the illicit
proclivities of gallery personnel that are hidden from
public view. No such luck.
“Inherent vice”, however, is somewhat akin to the
innate (bad and potentially self-destructive) behaviour
triggered by the bit of DNA that impels a person to
over-indulgence and, through excess, die prematurely.
A similar flaw exists in certain artworks. Because of
their inherent natures, such pieces will degrade over
time or suffer from conditions (or other factors) in
their surroundings that will diminish their effectiveness.
Art depends on professionals: to detect their
problems; to slow or stop the progress of their ‘maladies’
and where possible, to endow them with eternal
life.
Conservator Monica Smith of the Vancouver Art
Gallery is responsible for inspecting art objects. On
Condition Report Forms there is a box beside the
words “inherent vice”. If it is ticked, measures might be
taken to stabilize (or ‘cure’) the piece before it is put on
display or accepted into the collection.
BY ANN ROSENBERG
Ingrid and Iain Baxter, Bagged Landscape (1966),
vinyl, 73 x 58 x 8 cm
According to Rebecca Pavitt, another local expert in the field, inherent vice is a problem
because, “Artists make art out of the darnest things.” Every gallery worker has one or more
‘inherent vice’ story that they enjoy telling.
My eyes popped out when I saw ants marching towards an animal fat sculpture at the Surrey
Art Gallery to claim it as their prize. The insects were doing what nature compelled them to do in
response to the ‘scent’ of the lard—an ingredient more fitting for a pie. A more horrifying invasion
of picnic pests took place in Toronto’s Power Plant Gallery when two Mexican artists painted
a mural using human fat as ‘paint’. According to Vancouver curator Keith Wallace, by the
third day, the ‘goop’ was alive with ants and the smell was unbearable.
Artists sometimes encourage, accept and even accelerate the deterioration of a piece by shining
hot lights on the vegetation or bottom-of-the-food-chain creatures it includes. More typically,
however, artists don’t want anything too detrimental to occur. This was undoubtedly the case
with Liz Magor’s 1977 Time and Mrs. Tibor installation that the VAG exhibited just as the artist
was gaining prominence.
Time and Mrs. Tibor was an installation of Magor’s deceased neighbour’s wooden pantry that
had been part of her tumbled-down farm house. On its shelves were Mrs. Tibor’s own preserves
along with Magor’s newly canned jars of wild flowers. The sculpture was purchased by the
National Gallery of Canada and shortly thereafter some substances in the jars began to ferment.
Extraordinary measures were taken to eliminate the inherent vice so that Time and Mrs. Tibor
could have an eternal, problem free-life.
Many of the N.E.Thing Company’s ‘bagged’ vinyl landscapes, plastic inflatable abstract
shapes, low-relief vacuum-formed or crushed container sculptures that were produced in the
mid to late ‘60’s are not ageing well. This is due to the tendency of some plastics to bio-degrade,
especially when exposed to heat and light. Some, but not these works, have become brittle and
discoloured. Neither flaw can be reversed, but some pieces can be stabilized under certain conditions.
In this case, it is up to fate and conservators to determine how long the works survive.

Jude Norris: Roots, Scars, Nests & Tines;
New Positions, Timeless Paradigms
CAMPBELL RIVER & DISTRICT PUBLIC ART GALLERY BC – APR 13-MAY 18
Jude Norris is a multimedia artist from Alberta, with a self-described
heritage of Cree/Little Russian/Anishnawbe/Scottish/Gypsy/Métis. Her
cultural affiliation is Plains Cree and she currently lives in Toronto. Norris’
artwork represents contradictions in living as an indigenous person in a
contemporary colonial environment.
This exhibition, Roots, Scars, Nests & Tines; New Positions, Timeless
Paradigms, brings together multi-disciplinary pieces from four series. The
natural materials that inspire her “soft architectures” and canvases include
real animal antlers; “wounds” that have been “healed” with sinew stitching;
natural and manufactured materials twisted into braids; and stick frames
and nests built with ribbons, strips of beadwork, fur, fake hair, rubber or
wool. The materials reflect traditional connections with First Nations art
but the pieces themselves – including sculptures, wall pieces and video
installations – emulate contemporary art practices. The artist declares, “I
collaborate” with objects and images gathered from the land and animals,
and reposition them in ‘art world’ contexts that emphasize their physical
beauty, but also poke quiet but serious ‘fun’ at their misplacement.”
Norris studied integrated media at the Ontario College of Art & Design
in Toronto, Ontario and art at Middlesex University and Kensington &
Chelsea College, in London, England. Her videos have been screened
extensively at events across Canada and her work has been exhibited

The Art of the Sari
SURREY ART GALLERY, SURREY BC – through Jun 10 The
sari has existed for over 5000 years and continues to be
worn by a billion women around the world. It is the most
common form of dress in India. In celebration of the
multipurpose costume, The Surrey Art Gallery presents
The Art of the Sari, an exhibition showing the sari as a form
of living art.
Historically, Hindus believed that cloth pierced by
needles was impure, so a long length of simple cloth was
adapted to fit the body. In terms of beauty, the sari
emphasizes small waists and curvaceous busts and hips.
From a utilitarian point of view, the sari is ideal for
complete coverage of the female body at work. The
adaptable sari can be worn as shorts, trousers, a flowing
gown or as a skirt. In fact, more than fifteen styles can be
found throughout India alone. From 5 yards to 9.5 yards
long, depending on the status of the wearer and its use, the cloth is tied loosely, folded and pleated. A
petticoat or “ghagra” and a blouse or “choli” were adopted in the 19th century and are sometimes
worn under the sari. With globalization, western dress has been increasingly embraced, but the sari is
still preferred for dress occasions, rituals and ceremonies around the world, and for utilitarian
purposes in rural India.
The Art of the Sari showcases centuries-old traditional crafts of weaving, printing and decoration in
historical saris, as well as glamorous contemporary saris designed and created for this exhibit. They

Practical Art History or
Confessions of a Fine Art Appraiser
Chapter 9. The Case of Looe Pool.
Several weeks ago I received a call from a gentleman who
wanted his collection of paintings appraised for insurance
purposes.
After reviewing the collection I surmised that three pieces,
an exquisite oil on canvas and two well-executed watercolours,
all by the same hand, exhibited sufficient artistic merit to
warrant a written appraisal. My client indicated he was a second
generation relative of the artist and that he had inherited the
two watercolours some years ago. The oil painting, he had
purchased at auction, some 25 years earlier.
The paintings were signed by S.J. Lamorna Birch and in
some cases dated. The oil had a gallery label on the reverse,
which included the title of Looe Pool, Helstrom. The larger of the
two watercolours was inscribed on the back “Harvest Time”,
while the smaller watercolour appeared to be a hand-painted,
personalized, Christmas card sent to “Charlie” in 1940. I was
astounded to discover that the illustrious relative of my client
was the renowned British painter, Samuel Lamorna Birch R.A.
(1869-1955).
Samuel John Birch was born in Egremont, Cheshire. Birch
first visited West Cornwall (England) in the late 1880s and
settled in the Lamorna Valley in 1892. He adopted the epithet
Lamorna in 1895 to distinguish himself from fellow artist
Lionel Birch (an idea suggested by Stanhope Forbes).
He is regarded as the father figure of the later group of
‘Newlyn’ artists, which included Laura and Harold Knight (who
he met in 1907), Alfred Munnings, Frank Gascoigne Heath,
Stanley Gardiner and Charles and Ella Naper, forming a second
artists colony in the Lamorna Valley, often referred to as the
Lamorna group. Birch was elected as an Associate of the Royal

S.J. Lamorna Birch, Harvest Time
S.J. Lamorna Birch, Lamorna Cove looking
towards Carn Dhu
Academy (A.R.A.) in 1924 and was made a full Royal Academician (R.A.) eight years later.
The oil titled Looe Pool, Helstrom was probably purchased from the S.J. Lamorna Birch
Memorial Exhibition, Fine Art Society, London, October 1955. The title refers to the largest
natural freshwater lake in Cornwall. The pool was originally the estuary of the River Cober which
flows through the former port of Helston. The Pool is reputed to be the lake in which Sir Bedivere
cast King Arthur’s sword, Excalibur. Local superstition also warns that the Pool claims a victim
every seven years.
The watercolour titled Harvest Time is possibly a view in the Cotswolds and probably dates
from the 1920s, painted during one of Birch’s visits to his friend and etcher Frederick Griggs at
Campden, Gloucestershire. The small watercolour Christmas card depicts a view from the
Lamorna harbour wall (Lamorna Cove) looking towards the rocks at Carn Dhu (black rock-pile).
On completing the appraisal, I was informed by my client that other relatives also owned
works by their illustrious ancestor. These included drawings, watercolours and small oils, mainly
images in and around Lamorna Cove, Cornwall.

renowned WPA-funded murals. By

David A. Haughton: Kindertotentanz
GALLERY O - CONTEMPORARY, THE ART CENTER, VANCOUVER BC – May 3-17 David A. Haughton’s
Kindertotentanz are difficult and disturbing works. Kindertotentanz, meaning “children’s dance of
death”, is a group of over 100 works created between 1984 and 2000, including etchings, aquatints,
pen and ink drawings, oil paintings on canvas and acrylic paintings. They explore Dr. Haughton’s
emotions as a pediatrician faced with the suffering of very ill and dying children, particularly during
his early years of paediatric training in Los Angeles.
The sad fact is, between genetic disorders, premature births, fetal alcohol syndrome, cancer,
meningitis, neurological development and more, the malformations pictured here are a distinct reality.
The expectation of a "normal" child is reasonable, but not
necessarily a reality.
The most affirmative spirit in the work can be traced to
art created by the Maori people of New Zealand, through
which Haughton found the language to structure his images.
Figuring prominently are lizards, birds, eels and fish, the
night, heavens and the moon. The lizard, signifying death, is
a key element in the Maori theory of disease, and the
doctor's task is to stop the lizard from entering the child’s
mouth. In many of Haughton's images, the infants
themselves are left to wrestle with the lizard. Witnessing the
fateful struggles are Greek Orthodox-like saints from
Haughton’s own ancestry, who provide the viewer with
glimpses of hope, reverence and even awe. As both a doctor
and an artist, his penetrating work is a true gift to us.
David Haughton is simultaneously exhibiting Ships,
Mountains, and the Sea IV, a series of British Columbia
coastal landscapes, May 3-27 at The Art Center. Mia Johnson

DIANE FARRIS GALLERY, VANCOUVER – Apr 5-28 Chris Woods
continues to query our automotive aspirations in his second series
of work about car culture, The Magic Hour, Part Two. In 2004, he
examined the dark side of car advertising in The Magic Hour, Part
One. The images in Part Two revel in the sense of mastery afforded
by cars.
Several paintings depict figures holding swords aloft, extolling
the powers granted to them by their cars and feeling
indestructible. “Six-Point Adjustable” features a woman crouched
in front of her car wearing nothing but a bulletproof vest. In
“Professional Driver, Closed Course”, a woman stands behind her
open car door deflecting bullets. Using a combination of
photographs shot in his studio, ads culled from magazines and
stock photos from the Internet, Woods continues to question not
only the influence of the car over us, but our choice in using cars
– especially SUVs and other “road weapons” – against ourselves.
He asks, “Does the car seek to bless us or destroy us”
Woods is known for posing his Gen-X friends in parodies of
consumerism. His McTopia series probed the ubiquity of fast food
franchises, including our devotion to corporations like

McDonald’s and Burger King. His images have appeared on the cover of Adbusters magazine, in
Saturday Night magazine, in the films Clerks 2 and The Corporation, and numerous other
publications. In 2004, as he and his friends entered their thirties, Woods moved from earlier themes
of teenage angst and the “religion” of fast food to the automobile industry. He has had numerous
solo shows in Canada and the United States. Mia Johnson

Mowry Baden: Day by Day
DELUGE GALLERY, VICTORIA BC – APR 6-MAY 12 Mowry
Baden is a prominent Canadian sculptor who has
influenced a generation of sculptors in Canada and the
United States with his participatory installations. He has
been described as “a maker of task-oriented objects”
intended to lure visitors and stimulate physical and
perceptual interaction. The Deluge exhibit presents a
selection of over 70 drawings from among hundreds of
sketchbook pages. The drawings include schematics for
sculptural projects, delicate figurative sketches and
abstract illustrations. They provide a rare look at Baden’s
creative process.
Baden’s body-oriented works of the late 1960s and
early 1970s, and his broader interest in the perceptual
and interactive possibilities of art were considered
influential to artists Kim Adams, Lewis Baltz, Michael
Brewster, Chris Burden, Stephen Davis, and Jessica
Stockholder. His conceptual frameworks, borrowed from
psychology, architecture and performance, challenge the
tenets of contemporary sculpture.
Baden taught at Stanford University, the University of

American Abstraction: Works from the Washington
Art Consortium Collection
WHATCOM MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND ART, BELLINGHAM WA – May 13-Nov 11 One of the
functions of the Washington Art Consortium, an educational cooperative of seven art museums in
Washington State, is the preservation of a collection of American artworks created between 1945-
1975. From this collection, The Whatcom Museum, has
organized American Abstraction. The exhibit presents 52
works on paper by artists who have made significant
contributions to the genre of abstract art. Artists include
William de Kooning, Richard Diebenkorn, John Cage,
Hans Hofmann, Jasper Johns, Robert Motherwell, Richard
Serra and Frank Stella.
The drawings, prints and paintings in this exhibit were
created during the latter half of the 20th century when
abstraction was the favoured style in America. They are
presented in groupings that aim to provide different
contexts in which nonrepresentational art developed.
Although most of the pieces featured are not
considered the most significant works by these artists, the

VANCOUVER ART GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Apr 5-Sept 16 House of Oracles is the first
retrospective of one of China’s most influential contemporary artists, Huang Yong Ping. The Chineseborn
and Paris-based artist is known for his spectacular largescale
installations that simultaneously entertain, shock and
critique. The exhibition, a “hybrid of fun house, diorama and
menagerie”, was previously shown at the Walker Art Center
in Minneapolis and features more than forty of Huang Yong
Ping’s works, including a monumental sculpture.
Huang's sculptures and installations have been described
as “highly realistic and energetic”. He draws on the legacies of
western modernists like Joseph Beuys and John Cage, as well
as Chinese traditions of Zen and Taoism when juxtaposing
traditional images with modern references. The most amazing
sculpture in this exhibit expresses “the nightmare of George
V” by posing a snarling tiger on top of a life-size elephant. The
materials are as diverse as concrete, reinforced steel, animal
skins, fabrics and plastics, wood and cane.
Since his leadership, in the 1980s, of a subversive artists’
collective in Xiamen, China, Huang has been described as
artist, magician, fortune-teller, alchemist, healer, teacher,
philosopher, and writer. In the last decade, he has created a
completely original and provocative zoological realm using
both live animals and animal reproductions to represent
various man-made social, political and historical events.
House of Oracles is accompanied by a 250-page illustrated catalogue. Mia Johnson

The Portland Grid Project
MAIN GALLERY, PORTLAND ART CENTER, OR – Apr 5-27 The Portland Grid Project represents the
culmination of an ambitious plan that began in 1995. Christopher Rauschenberg, son of Robert
Rauschenberg and an artist with the Elizabeth
Leach Gallery, organized a group of 15
photographers to document the city of Portland
square-by-square. A street map of Portland was
cut into 98 sections and photographed one
month at a time by a group of changing
participants. Many are members of the Blue
Sky Gallery. A total of 21 photographers were
involved in creating the estimated 20,000 prints
generated by the project. Seven curators from
different institutions then organized the images
into individually focused shows to create an
overall exhibition of 3000 works.
For the photographers, there were no
requirements other than to consistently
preview

David Potter, J8, [Main Gallery, Portland Art Center, OR, Apr 5-27]
photograph the designated grid section. The unintended commonality was the lack of a human
subject in most pieces. Instead, a tension between nature and structure is represented in the quiet
streets, moody skylines, industrials neighborhoods, backyards and waterways that compose this
photographic essay of Portland.
Portions of the Grid Project were shown in 2005 as part of the Contemporary American
Photography exhibit at the Internationale Fototage in Mannheim, Germany. The current exhibition
is the largest to date and on view as part of the Photolucida Festival. Allyn Cantor

Ed Kamuda: New Oils and Gouaches
LISA HARRIS GALLERY, SEATTLE WA – Apr 5-28 Ed
Kamuda is a self-taught painter well-established in the
Seattle area for more than thirty years. With a highly
personal vision of reality, he reduces three-dimensional
elements to primitive, linear shapes that have the
simplicity of folk art yet manage to retain the
sophisticated resonance of Expressionism.
Through his spare, evocative images, Kamuda
demonstrates a reverie for nature and a meaningful
connection with the original subjects. His stacked
compositions of local scenes conjure images by Paul
Klee. Kamuda’s work is characterized by a rich, earthy
surface depth created with layers of oil paint and wax.
The physicality is heightened by palette knife marks.
In this new exhibit, Kamuda has also created a group
of large-scale gouache paintings. These pieces share the
soft and dreamy movement of his oil paintings. The
preview

water-based media allows the shapes to dance on the picture plane creating a sense of lightness.

BRITISH COLUMBIA, VANCOUVER BC – through May 20
John Massey is one of Canada's foremost conceptual
artists. He is the son of a prominent architect, the
grandson of Vincent Massey, and the descendant of a
patrician family of arts patrons. Massey became a sculptor,
filmmaker, installation artist and photographer. He was an
early adopter of digital photography and continues to
combine conventional photography with computer
manipulation.
Since the late 1970s, Massey’s work has involved
photographs of architectural interiors and the articulation
of scale models of rooms. They have been shown in major
exhibitions in Germany, the United States, France,
Australia, and Canada. In 2001, Massey was awarded the
Gershon Iskowitz Award for lifetime achievement.

spray-painted before photographing.

retrospective, Roman Art from the Louvre and a major exhibit of Coast Salish Art.
The inaugural exhibit, SAM at 75: Building a Collection for
Seattle, features new acquisitions and gifts in honour of the
Museum’s upcoming 75th anniversary. Approximately 200
pieces will be featured in the galleries and also integrated
within the permanent collections.
When entering the block-long public space of the new
SAM building, impressive installations by Cai Guo-Qiang can
be viewed on the first and second floors. On the ground level
is Inopportune: Stage One, a nine-car piece meant to re-enact a
Ford Taurus somersaulting through the air. Each suspended
vehicle represents a moment in time, like stills from a video.
Colourful flashing LED lights give the piece a theatrical tone
that adds to the experiential element of the work. In an
adjacent gallery, a video work by Guo-Qiang entitled Illusion
depicts a car exploding in Times Square, New York. The actual
burned car used in the creation of the piece accompanies the
video for a heightened sense of reality. Both of these works are
