Negotiations in a Vacant Lot: Studying the Visual in Canada

Edited by Lynda Jessup, Erin Morton and Kirsty Robertson,McGill-Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트 Press, 2014. 

Negotiations in a Vacant Lot: Studying the Visual in Canada book cover

At a moment when the discipline of Canadian art history seems to be in flux and the study of Canadian visual culture is gaining traction outside of art history departments, the authors of Negotiations in a Vacant Lot were asked: is "Canada" - or any other nation - still relevant as a category of inquiry? Is our country simply one of many "vacant lots" where class, gender, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation interact? What happens to the project of Canadian visual history if we imagine that Canada, as essence, place, nation, or ideal, does not exist? 

The argument that culture is increasingly used as an economic and socio-political resource resonates strongly with the popular strategies of "urban gurus" such as Richard Florida, and increasingly with government policy. Such strategies both contrast with, but also speak to traditions of Canadian state support for culture that have shaped the national(ist) discipline of Canadian art history. The authors of this collection stand at the multiple points where national culture and globalization collide, however, suggesting that academic investigation of the visual in Canada is contested in ways that cannot be contained by arbitrary borders.

Around and About Marius Barbeau: Modelling Twentieth-Century Culture

Edited by Lynda Jessup, Andrew Nurse and Gordon Smith,Canadian Museum of Civilization, 2008.

Around and About Marius Barbeau: Modelling Twentieth-Century Culture book cover

Marius Barbeau (1883-1969) played a vital role in the shaping of  emergence of Canadian culture in the twentieth century. Around and About Marius Barbeau: Modelling Twentieth-Century Culture is designed to extend discussion about Barbeau beyond the life and work framework by providing critical and interpretive approaches to the different aspects of Barbeau. Rooted in the premise that his cultural work 카지노 게임 컬렉션in anthropology, fine arts, music, film, folklore studies, fiction, historiography카지노 게임 컬렉션 cannot be read uni-dimensionally, this book advances the idea that, by merging disciplinary perspectives about Barbeau, we can move toward deepening our evaluations and understandings of the situation around Barbeau.  The sixteen articles that comprise this book bear this idea out, suggesting that Barbeau카지노 게임 컬렉션s cultural work needs to be considered from a variety of different perspectives, each of which carries with it complex and competing dynamics, as well as a critical and subject context. Together, they present alternative stances from which we might reflect on Barbeau카지노 게임 컬렉션s historical situation and the implications of his work today.

On Aboriginal Representation in the Gallery

카지노 게임 컬렉션Edited by Lynda Jessup with Shannon Bagg,Canadian Museum of Civilization, 2002. 카지노 게임 컬렉션카지노 게임 컬렉션

On Aboriginal Representation in the Gallery book cover

In recognizing the established intellectual and institutional authority of Native North American artists, curators and academics working in cultural institutions and universities today, this publication serves as an important primer on key questions accompanying the changing representational practices of the community cultural centre, the public art gallery and the anthropological museum. In this anthology, Native North American and other contributors address current and provocative issues arising from Native North American historical and contemporary art, and its production, collection and exhibition. 카지노 게임 컬렉션

Antimodernism and Artistic Experience: Policing the Boundaries of Modernity

Edited by Lynda Jessup, 카지노게임사이트 of Toronto Press, 2001.

Antimodernism and Artistic Experience: Policing the Boundaries of Modernity book cover

Antimodernism is a term used to describe the international reaction to the onslaught of the modern world that swept across industrialized Western Europe, North America, and Japan in the decades around the turn of the twentieth century. Scholars in art history, anthropology, political science, history, and feminist media studies explore antimodernism as an artistic response to a perceived sense of loss - in particular, the loss of 'authentic' experience. Embracing the 'authentic' as a redemptive antidote to the threat of unheralded economic and social change, antimodernism sought out experience supposedly embodied in pre-industrialized societies - in medieval communities or 'oriental cultures,' in the Primitive, the Traditional, or Folk. In describing the ways in which modern artists used antimodern constructs in formulating their work, the contributors examine the involvement of artists and intellectuals in the reproduction and diffusion of these concepts. In doing so they reveal the interrelation of fine art, decorative art, souvenir or tourist art, and craft, questioning the ways in which these categories of artistic expression reformulate and naturalise social relations in the field of cultural production.

Scholarly Editions

Nass River Indians (Reconstruction)

Concept, research and sequencing by Lynda Jessup 
Intertitle scans and digital reconstruction by Dale Gervais,
Produced in collaboration with the National Archives of Canada, 2001

The beginning of a video, showing the opening credits

This 35 mm film is a reconstruction of the lost, 1928 film Nass River Indians, which was produced by Associated Screen News Ltd in Montreal specifically for use by the National Museum of Canada. It was first screened in 1928 in conjunction with the National Gallery of Canada "Exhibition of Canadian West Coast Art, Native and Modern," a show combining the work of Canadian west coast Aboriginal peoples with paintings and sculptures by prominent Euro-Canadian artists, chief among them the members of the Group of Seven. With the generous support of the National Archives of Canada, the film has been reconstructed as a postcolonial object, which includes introductory intertitles in English and Nisga'a. The film toured internationally in Unseen Cinema: Early American Avant-Garde Film 1893-1941, organized by the Anthology Film Archives and Deutsches Film museum.
