Summary:
They've been called cheeky pranksters but the immersive environments created by the artistic collective lampoon consumer culture with a razor-sharp wit. BGL's exhibitions have included the staging of an ornamental tree factory, a bonfire and a flea market; and their urban carousel made from security fences and lampposts joyously greeted visitors at MASS MoCA's 2012 exhibition, Oh Canada. Through their ingeniously-crafted installations, BGL repositions cultural ephemera and unique sculptures in new and thought-provoking ways, often requiring viewer engagement and always to general delight. This in-depth examination of BGL's practice accompanies the world premiere of their new work, Canadassimo, created especially for 2015 Venice Biennial, where the collective is representing Canada.

Summary:
Cet ouvrage est composé de cinq parties qui invitent à un déplacement de sens et d’idées autour des collections faisant écho aux formules dynamiques, interrogatives et inclusives que tendent à adopter les musées. Les recherches qui y sont publiées ont, pour la grande majorité, été menées dans le cadre des activités du Groupe de recherche et de réflexion CIÉCO. Les différents chapitres interrogent l’impact de l’évènementiel sur les collections ou analysent des stratégies muséales qui cherchent à valoriser les collections par les ressorts évènementiels. Cet ouvrage, qui vient combler une importante lacune dans l’étude sur les collections, s’adresse à quiconque s’intéresse au patrimoine, aux musées, aux expositions, aux œuvres d’art que ce soit dans la perspective de l’histoire de l’art, de la muséologie, des arts visuels, de l’architecture, de l’ethnographie ou de la sociologie.

Summary:
Catalogue de l'exposition présentée au Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal du 24 mai au 3 septembre 2012. Contemporary art has recently taken a particular interest in the animal world - not surprising given current debates on the evolution of natural history and the unprecedented ecological upheavals taking place in the natural world. This publication offers an opportunity to re-examine just what shapes our experience and understanding of nature and animals through mythology, natural science, ecology, ideology and, increasingly critically, the economy. Twenty artists from Canada and around the world question the place accorded animals and nature in today’s universe. With essays and illustrations presented and organized to remind the reader of a natural history manual, the book reads as an encyclopedia of ideas about animals and their relationship to humans and to art.
