Jocelyn Anderson Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

This publication, created for a retrospective exhibition curated by Sarah Milroy, delves into the career of a legendary Canadian artist now in her nineties. Born in 1928 in Brandon, Manitoba, she later settled in Vancouver, where she became a pioneering figure in the Canadian art scene. Her imaginative works range from flying horses and potted conifers adorned with blossoms to floating cabbages and glossy apples, showcasing her exploration of painting, ceramics, performance art, and installation over five decades. Falk's art embodies a dynamic tension between effulgence and order, reflecting her unique observations of everyday life often tinged with surrealism. Her career highlights include vibrant fruit piles, landmark performances, and themes that explore light and color in nature. The publication features an introduction by Milroy and a lead essay by Daina Augaitis, who contextualizes Falk's performance and installation works. It includes full-page images of her art, rarely seen archival photos, and insights from various artists and writers. This catalogue not only summarizes her extraordinary career but also traces her artistic journey, celebrating her contributions as she approaches her 94th year.

Over the course of the long 18th century, many of England's grandest country houses became known for displaying noteworthy architecture and design, large collections of sculptures and paintings, and expansive landscape gardens and parks. Although these houses continued to function as residences and spaces of elite retreat, they had powerful public identities. Increasingly accessible to tourists, and extensively described by travel writers, they began to be celebrated as sites of great importance to national culture. Touring and Publicizing England's Country Houses in the Long Eighteenth Century examines how these identities emerged, repositioning the importance of country houses in 18th-century Britain and exploring what it took to turn them into tourist attractions. Drawing on travel books, guidebooks, and dozens of tourists' diaries and letters, it explores what it meant to tour country houses such as Blenheim Palace, Chatsworth, Wilton, Kedleston and Burghley in the tumultuous 1700s. It also questions the legacies of these early tourists: both as a critical cultural practice in the 18th century, and an extraordinary and controversial influence in British culture today, country-house tourism is a topic of rich debate for students, scholars and patrons of the heritage sector.
