11.19YVRAGENDA CARL WARNER Transits and Returns W hether it be displacement, migration, visiting, or commuting, movement can inform relationships to history and place. In Transits and Returns, an expansive new exhibition at the Vancouver Art Gallery, 21 Indigenous artists from New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and the United States consider what movement means particularly in relation to culture through themes of territory, kinship, and representation. Carol McGregor’s Skin Country, for example, bridges her Indigenous and Scottish backgrounds with a large possum cloak that features a map of flora painted on its skin instead of traditional territory symbols. Drew Kahuāina Broderick’s installation fills a wall with YVRAgenda Waikiki tourist t-shirts, speaking to “paradise economics” in Hawai’i and the commodification of the land, sky, and sea. Meanwhile, Hannah Brontë — whose practice is based on hip-hop, women, and performance — examines women as warriors, with shells and woven pieces adorning a dyed textile. Until Feb. 23, 2020 / Vancouver Art Gallery / Tix: vanartgallery.bc.ca Eastside Culture Crawl Want to get up close and personal with your favourite artists in the city? More than 500 of them will open their studio doors to the public as part of the annual Eastside Culture Crawl, so you can see how they really work. Now in its 23rd year, the Crawl provides a unique opportunity to connect with Vancouver’s creative community, particularly the hubs around Columbia St, 1st Ave, and Victoria Drive. Along with the open houses, there are also a variety of special events happening throughout the festival including DISPLACEMENT, a multi-artist, multi-venue exhibition that confronts the increasing losses of affordable artistic spaces; a carefully curated series of artist talks; and demos in chainsaw carving. Nov. 13 to 19, 2019 / Various Locations / Tix: Free HUMP! Anyone can be a porn star. That’s the philosophy according to HUMP!, an annual erotic film festival that screens short dirty home movies and amateur sex cinema made by “people who aren’t porn stars but want to be one for a weekend.” Hosted by sex advice columnist and podcaster Dan Savage, the festival is known for its loving and inclusive perspective towards what can be a taboo or exploitative industry, with a carefully curated lineup of submissions that don’t discriminate against race, gender, age, body type, fetish, or situation. Some are truly poignant, like Lost + Found, one of the featured films in this year’s festival, about a mother rediscovering her sexuality after experiencing a miscarriage. Others, like the Pizza Topping, which is set in an alternate reality where the pizzas order the delivery boys, are just meant to make you laugh. Founded in Seattle in 2005, the touring festival stops in Vancouver for the very first time this month. Nov. 13 to 16, 2019 / Rio Theatre / Tix: boldtypetickets.com BLACK LIKE ME: AN EXPLORATION OF THE WORD N— Is it possible to redefine a racial slur? Using a wide range of dance forms from African and jazz to tap and house, Seattle-based dancer and choreographer Jade Solomon Curtis surveys historical context and raises urgent questions about the power of a single, blood-soaked word. Nov. 20, 2019 / The Chan Centre for Performing Arts / Tix: chancentre.com NATE WATTERS Vancouver Podcast Festival True crime stories, comedy, and some of the most curious parts of Canadian history are just a small handful of the offerings at the Vancouver Podcast Festival, back for its second edition of panels, live events, and creative workshops this month. The top events on our list? First: Martin Austwick’s Making Music for Podcasts masterclass that has the award-winning podcaster and composer share his secrets for designing the perfect soundscape. And second: Listening Party with Jennifer Schine, Brady Marks and Jen Moss, at which they host a discussion on the power of sound.
