ISSUE NO. 25

The MacLaren Art Centre is pleased to announce its new five year strategic plan for 2019 to 2023, Enhanced Engagement, with three key directions: to enhance ways to share our stories; to enhance our curatorial focus; and to enhance our engagement with new and diverse communities.

With generous support from the County of Simcoe’s Arts, Culture and Heritage Grant Program and the Ontario Arts Council’s Compass Program, we were able to hire cultural consultant Micheline McKay to assist with the planning process. In June, McKay led board members, artists, service volunteers and other community stakeholders through a series of facilitated sessions and conducted interviews with community leaders. We also organized an online survey emailed to our 2700 subscribers.

During these community consultations, we reviewed our mission; our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and challenges; the changing demographics of our community; our current and potential audiences; and ways to measure and evaluate our progress. Reponses were very positive and indicated that the MacLaren is viewed as well managed, highly resourceful and responsive. Focus was largely placed on the need for enhanced accessibility, inclusivity and outreach, specifically: increasing physical and intellectual access to the Gallery, to our collection and to our artworks on view; developing a more focused curatorial direction embracing regional art and issues while exploring new ways to engage local artists; and building new partnerships to extend

programming in the community. We look forward to developing these new initiatives and to sharing our outcomes with our community.

As a public art gallery, we strive to bring people to art and art to people in ways that are engaging, enriching and enjoyable. Our hope is that this new strategic plan will help us to identify, prioritize and design contemporary visual arts experiences that are meaningful, representative and inclusive for new Canadians and culturally diverse audiences and foster a sense of belonging. We are excited about what our future holds and deeply grateful to all those who helped to shape this vision.

Warm regards,

Fever Dreams: Figurative Works from the MacLaren’s CollectionDecember 1, 2018 to March 3, 2019Gallery 3Curator: Emily McKibbonReception: Thursday, December 6, 7 to 9 pm

Fever Dreams presents figurative works drawn from the Permanent Collection of the MacLaren Art Centre. Dating from 1978 to 2000, the artworks in this exhibition highlight a seismic shift from a virtually monolithic focus on abstraction at mid-century to the more pluralistic artistic practices of the latter quarter of the twentieth century. Issues of identity, politics and representation are at play in much of the projects, responding to the recessions of the 1970s and 1980s, Indigenous activism, queer mobilization and feminist practice.

In a 1981 essay in October, renowned art historian Benjamin Buchloh describes the artists engaged in a return to figuration as “ciphers of regression,” artists whose practices represented a step backwards in the forward march of artistic progress. In contrast, Fever Dreams highlights the diverse and growing possibilities proposed by a younger generation of artists, planting seeds for the expanded field of artistic production we enjoy today. The artists featured in the exhibition include Carl Beam, Cathy Daley, Michael Davidson, Andy Fabo, Will Gorlitz, Dieter Hacker, Leopold Plotek, Jane Ash Poitras, Jeannie Thib, Renée van Halm and Shirley Wiitasalo.

Two Legacies Tanya Cunnington, Jill PriceDecember 1, 2018 to February 24, 2019The Carnegie Room Curator: Emily McKibbonReception: Thursday, December 6, 7 to 9 pm

Two Legacies brings together recent works on paper by regional artists Tanya Cunnington and Jill Price. While their artworks differ in many fundamental ways, both are engaged in an exploration of what Emily Dickinson describes as the two legacies of love: the joy of attachment and the pain of separation.

Jill Price’s project, Lineage, is a material exploration of artifacts inherited by the artist from her grandmother. Using hand-knitted blankets as drawing devices, this Barrie artist methodically traces each stitch in a meditative process akin to the creation of the original covers. The works are abstract, fragile and reflective of the incomplete and ephemeral nature of memory itself. By contrast, Rama artist Tanya Cunnington’s series Cal.endar responds to her experience of becoming a mother and returning to the Orillia area. Working in her late father-in-law’s studio, the artist reflects on what we inherit, what we leave behind and how we create in the interstices between.

Jason DundaA Hall of Unflattering Portraits December 6, 2018 to March 10, 2019Janice Laking Gallery Curator: Emily McKibbon Reception: Thursday, December 6, 7 to 9 pm

A Hall of Unflattering Portraits highlights recent paintings and sculptures by Toronto-born, Chicago-based artist Jason Dunda. These portraits of well-known contemporary and historical figures are a darkly humorous indictment of authority and control, their subjects wearing power like ill-fitting costumes.

Dunda’s research-based process begins with press photographs culled from international news agencies—including the MacLaren’s Sovfoto Archive—from which he builds figures carved from stacks of two-inch polystyrene foam. The figures are further abstracted through a watercolour sketching process until the subjects’ relationship to their source materials is untethered, the strange, final works neither observational nor imagined. This is the first Canadian presentation of Dunda’s new body of work, which highlights the sinister and laughable aspects of the scrolling headlines of the 24-hour news cycle.

Jason Dunda’s work has been featured in solo and group exhibitions throughout Canada and the United States. He is an Adjunct Associate Professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Contributing Factors: Selections from Sovfoto December 6, 2018 to March 10, 2019Joan Lehman Gallery and www.maclarenart.com Guest Curator: Jason DundaReception: Thursday, December 6, 7 to 9 pm

Artist Jason Dunda presents photographs from the MacLaren’s Sovfoto Archive, a collection of 23,116 vintage Soviet press prints dating from the Stalinist period in Russia. Dunda utilized Sovfoto, as well as other international news agencies, in preparation for A Hall of Unflattering Portraits, his solo exhibition. Contributing Factors highlights Dunda’s singular eye and illuminates his working process.

Walter BachinskiAllegories December 1, 2018 to February 18, 2019Molson Community GalleryCurator: Noor Alé Reception: Thursday, December 6, 7 to 9 pm

Allegories includes intaglio prints by distinguished regional artist Walter Bachinski from the MacLaren’s Permanent Collection that convey personal allegories drawn from imagined and historical influences. His portraits and still lifes are shaped by classical and contemporary affinities, hovering between figuration and abstraction. Delicate in their restraint and faithful to form, the works evoke a quiet introspection.

Allyson ClaySlapchartreuse March 16 to June 23, 2019Joan Lehman GalleryCurator: Emily McKibbon Reception: Thursday, March 21, 7 to 9 pm

Slapchartreuse (2013) by Vancouver artist Allyson Clay is a riotously-coloured painting exploring action-oriented descriptions of abstract works. Clay employs phrases from textbooks—most notably Roald Nasgaard’s Abstract Painting in Canada—to demonstrate how masculinist language limits our understanding of art history as a whole.

Tammi Campbell Double Remove March 21 to June 23, 2019Janice Laking Gallery Guest Curator: Renée van der AvoirdReception: Thursday, March 21, 7 to 9 pm

Saskatoon artist Tammi Campbell’s highly technical paintings hover between abstract and real, complete and incomplete. Employing Modernism as an investigative tool, Campbell recasts ordinary materials into new forms through innovative studio processes. Double Remove features works from the past five years that expand the perceptual and conceptual possibilities of paint.

Works in Progress (2014) is a series of acrylic paintings on paper inspired by tropes of hard-edge minimalism. These seemingly unfinished grey-scale studies, lined with trompe l’oeil masking tape, reveal the artist’s interest in materiality and process. Also on view are Monochromes (2016), radically reductive abstractions whose surfaces mimic packing tape, bubble wrap and corrugated cardboard. These meticulous works address their own making and, ultimately, raise questions about the role of painting today.

Tammi Campbell (born 1974, Calgary) has exhibited work at the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, Vancouver Art Gallery and Remai Modern, Saskatoon, among others.

The Clean Shape Janet Jones, Rita Letendre, Doris McCarthy March 16 to June 16, 2019Gallery 3 Curator: Emily McKibbonReception: Thursday, March 21, 7 to 9 pm

In 1964, Abenaki and Quebecois artist Rita Letendre began to experiment with what she called “the clean shape.” Inspired by her public artworks—murals that bisected the brutalist streets of downtown Toronto with vivid swathes of hard-edged colour—she began to pursue similar forms in her paintings. Violating long-standing taboos in abstraction with illusionist references to light created with airbrush technology, Letendre’s paintings represented a major breakthrough for this already significant artist.

Drawn from the MacLaren’s Permanent Collection, The Clean Shape presents two recently conserved artworks by Letendre alongside paintings by Doris McCarthy and Toronto-based artist Janet Jones. McCarthy’s work, made contemporaneously with Letendre’s, depicts the Canadian landscape rendered in simplified, geometric forms. Jones’ works are architectonic, depicting the hybrid spaces of the globalized world through a conceptually rich, feminist framework. Essential to each are the clean, hard edges of geometric abstraction, achieving the “vibration” of forms that Letendre intended in her earliest experimentations.
