SPACES AND PLACES FOR ART

MCGILL-QUEENS/BEAVERBROOK CANADIAN FOUNDATION STUDIES IN ART HISTORY

Martha Langford and Sandra Paikowsky, series editors

Recognizing the need for a better understanding of Canadas artistic culture both at home and abroad, the Beaverbrook Canadian Foundation, through its generous support, makes possible the publication of innovative books that advance our understanding of Canadian art and Canadas visual and material culture. This series supports and stimulates such scholarship through the publication of original and rigorous peer-reviewed books that make significant contributions to the subject. We welcome submissions from Canadian and international scholars for book-length projects on historical and contemporary Canadian art and visual and material culture, including Native and Inuit art, architecture, photography, craft, design, and museum studies. Studies by Canadian scholars on non-Canadian themes will also be considered.

CONTENTS
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Writing this book has been a twelve-year journey of reading, thinking, archival research, and conversations. I would like to first recognize Catherine Crowston and Tony Luppino chief curator and executive director of the Edmonton Art Gallery who back in 2004 were extremely receptive to my idea of curating an exhibition that examined the gallerys collecting activities. They generously gave me full access to the gallerys archives and free reign over how to present that history in the exhibition Building a Collection: 80 Years at the Edmonton Art Gallery. This was the show that prompted the writing of this book and I am very grateful for their encouragement of this project. Catherine, now executive director of the Art Gallery of Alberta, continues to be a wonderful conversationalist on all things art and gallery related. Early stages of my research were supported by grants from the University of Alberta, and I would like to thank the Department of Art and Design and the Faculty of Arts for their support and encouragement. The final research and writing was undertaken at Concordia University and thanks go to my colleagues in the Department of Art History for creating such a warm and supportive environment in which to complete the manuscript, and to the Office of the Vice-President Research and Graduate Studies and the Faculty of Fine Arts for financial support.

Throughout this project I have received excellent help from numerous research assistants: I thank Andrea Perechitz, Karl Davis, and Taylor Leedhal for their diligent bibliographic searches, Gwynne Fulton for the sanity-saving image research, and Jessica Veevers for her detailed formatting and reference work. Friends across the country read chapters of the book at various stages of completion and coherence. Thank you for your insights, comments, and reality checks to Liz Czach, Brian Foss, Martha Langford, Sasha Mullally, Diana Nemiroff, Liza Piper, and Julie Rak. For reading the manuscript in various forms over many years and making this a much better book, Lianne McTavish earns my deepest gratitude and appreciation. Thanks FFG!
