Résumé:
Canada is a country whose national narrative is difficult to define, even for Canadians. This question is further complicated when looking at emerging artists who have grown up under intense globalization. In Canada, specific identities are difficult to pinpoint and, when they are, they are often portrayed as problematic stereotypes bound up in a colonialist history. “Alternorthern” was conceived in the tension that exists between nationalism, globalization, and individualism: the exhibition is a product of both cultural values and cultural hybridism. The nine artists in this exhibition function similarly in that they use their own identities to make gestures that transgress time and space. Each artist in the exhibition is Canadian, yet each creates work that speaks to issues pertinent to both Canadian and global geographic and political landscapes. The exhibition will open during the 2010 Olympics, when many of the stereotypes, symbols, themes, and political workings of Canada will be disseminated into the U.S. media. As Canada is in the throes of presenting its tourist identity on the international stage, this exhibition can function as a way of transgressing this identity. Thus, the curators see this exhibition not as a response to the event of the Olympics but as an opportunity to subvert and play with cultural dialogue that will exist during this time.

Within these worlds, viewers are invited to imagine endless spatial and fictive possibilities. The book includes panoramic reproductions of drawings and sculptural installations, alongside essays by Andreas Schalhorn and Michael Sorkin. Published to accompany the exhibition held at the Battat Gallery, Montréal, September 7 to October 23, 2010.

Résumé:
On the subject of displacement, editor Scott McLeod writes: “In the modern era, mass migration emerged as a major contributing factor to social and cultural change; intensifying in the last half of the twentieth century, it became one of the defining characteristics of contemporary life. Today, a generation whose members may have been born in one country, raised in several others, and who study, live and work in a variety of locations, has come of age. The artists of this generation, embodying a multiplicity of identities, create work that addresses their transcultural experience in all its complexity.”

Thirteen Postcards of illustrations from the book of narrative poetry We Will Be Fish. These images are compiled from turn-of-the-century mail-order catalogs, medical & zoological textbooks, and engineering diagrams. We Will Be Fish is a collection of narrative poems and illustrations, which can be viewed here, published by Pistol Press in 2008. It was listed for the 2008 ReLit Awards and 2009 Expozine Awards, and a top ten seller at Drawn & Quarterley in 2008. The story follows the life of Leopold Canary, who loses his wife to sleeping sickness and gets tangled up in a government scam covering the truth behind the disease. He goes on to try and find his place in other small towns, at times working as an appliance designer, a self-appointed dentist, and the guide of his own basement museum. With thirteen cards you can choose your favorites for the fridge and use the rest to tell your grandma about all the nifty things you've been up to as of late.
