<strong>Little</strong> <strong>Red</strong> <strong>Riding</strong> <strong>Hood</strong><br />
This series takes the tale of the Brothers Grimm to<br />
explore the process of the imagination through a<br />
visual proposal based on subjective associations<br />
from the reading of the classic story. Other aspects<br />
related to the approach to such a widespread text<br />
come into play; for example, to overlook elements<br />
that are obviously grotesque or perverse due to<br />
automated reception.<br />
Selection from a series of twenty five photographs.<br />
Her mother told her: “get going before it becomes hot, and don’t stray from the path.”
The House in the House<br />
This project was developed for an exhibition at<br />
Spadina Museum in Toronto. The Spadina House<br />
was once a private shelter for a Canadian family. In<br />
the uninhabited spaces we see the recreation of a<br />
daily life, its intimacy and trivial moments. Despite<br />
being uninhabited, there are minimal traces of the<br />
previous life. The house in the house inserts an<br />
alternate story thus unfolding a space within this<br />
public space.<br />
Selection from a series of eleven photographs.

Gary Michael Dault<br />
Gary Michael Dault Having spent most of his professional life in Toronto, as a painter, university teacher<br />
and art critic (his visual arts column, Gallery-Going, ran in The Globe & Mail for fourteen years, a sojourn<br />
he now regards as essentially purgatorial), Gary Michael Dault lives with his wife, artist Malgorzata Wolak<br />
Dault and their seven cats, in a greatly cherished Victorian house (called Swan House because of the stainedglass<br />
swans bedecking it) in the town of Napanee in Eastern Ontario. Dault is the author of numerous<br />
magazine articles and gallery catalogues, as well as a dozen books about the visual arts. He has published ten<br />
volumes of poetry, and has written three television documentaries, all for the late Sir Peter Ustinov (the most<br />
ambitious of which was a 6-hour miniseries titled Peter Ustinov: Inside the Vatican). Dault has exhibited his<br />
own paintings many times, most recently at Verb Gallery in Kingston, Ontario.
