ART GALLERY OF ALBERTA, EDMONTON AB – Apr 14-Jun 10 China Sensation is a major exhibition 

of work by 22 contemporary Chinese artists living in Chengdu, Sichuan in the People’s Republic 

of China. The city of Chengdu is the economic and cultural centre of China’s most populated 

province and has been well situated to adopt and absorb western art practices. 

Following the enormous success of the first Shanghai Biennale, Chengdu inaugurated its own 

Biennale in 2001. Since that time the 

community has seen increased participation 

by curators, local collectors, foreign artists 

and international museums. Today there are 

over 20 museums in Chengdu. 

The artwork in the China Sensation 

exhibit shows a transition from traditional 

Chinese landscape painting and calligraphic 

styles to work informed by media awareness 

and conceptual irony. While images by the 

more senior artists are clearly linked to long 

historical traditions, the art of younger artists 

has been greatly influenced by western 

entertainment and media images – including

lively collage-inspired works, new forms of photography, Internet-inspired subject matter and 

video art. Overriding all is a sense of today’s global community combined with an Asian style and 

subject matter. China Sensation is a unique opportunity to see the work of artists from a rapidly 

evolving country. Mia Johnson

Vivian Thierfelder: Lux Eterna 

DOUGLAS UDELL GALLERIES, EDMONTON AB – Apr 5-21 Vivian Thierfelder was born in Alberta 

and received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Alberta in 1970. Before turning 

to painting full-time in 1983, she worked in exhibit design 

and construction at the Provincial Museum of Alberta, as a 

preparator for the Natural History Diorama Program, and in 

the graphics department of a major telecommunications 

firm. 

Over the past 30 years, Thierfelder has developed an 

enviable style of watercolour painting. Her technique 

employs rich and saturated paints in a manner more typical 

of oils or acrylics, and her treatment of colour and light is 

breathtaking. Her subjects range from simple fruit and 

flowers to complex still life arrangements of postcards, 

tropical flowers, silverware, fine china and photographs, all 

with dense and intricate patterns. The images are filled with 

movement and radiant light, “celebrating the lushness of the 

natural world” as she puts it. 

Thierfelder is a member of the Canadian Society of 

Painters in Watercolour and the Royal Canadian Academy

over North America, including the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, Canada Council Art Bank, The

Women at Work, the 1920s was a 

period of fun-loving flappers and fabulous 

fashions. It was also a time of 

great social change for women as 

they exercised their newly won right 

to vote, entered politics and new professions 

and used their spending 

power in a consumer society. Exhibits 

throughout the museum tell the stories 

of Burnaby women in the 1920s.

at the STRIDE STUDIO by guest 

curator Ivan Sayers, and photographs

BEHIND THE SCENES 

Inherent Vice 

This “Behind the Scenes” topic is not about the illicit 

proclivities of gallery personnel that are hidden from 

public view. No such luck. 

“Inherent vice”, however, is somewhat akin to the 

innate (bad and potentially self-destructive) behaviour 

triggered by the bit of DNA that impels a person to 

over-indulgence and, through excess, die prematurely. 

A similar flaw exists in certain artworks. Because of 

their inherent natures, such pieces will degrade over 

time or suffer from conditions (or other factors) in 

their surroundings that will diminish their effectiveness. 

Art depends on professionals: to detect their 

problems; to slow or stop the progress of their ‘maladies’ 

and where possible, to endow them with eternal 

life. 

Conservator Monica Smith of the Vancouver Art 

Gallery is responsible for inspecting art objects. On 

Condition Report Forms there is a box beside the 

words “inherent vice”. If it is ticked, measures might be 

taken to stabilize (or ‘cure’) the piece before it is put on 

display or accepted into the collection. 

BY ANN ROSENBERG 

Ingrid and Iain Baxter, Bagged Landscape (1966), 

vinyl, 73 x 58 x 8 cm 

According to Rebecca Pavitt, another local expert in the field, inherent vice is a problem 

because, “Artists make art out of the darnest things.” Every gallery worker has one or more 

‘inherent vice’ story that they enjoy telling. 

My eyes popped out when I saw ants marching towards an animal fat sculpture at the Surrey 

Art Gallery to claim it as their prize. The insects were doing what nature compelled them to do in 

response to the ‘scent’ of the lard—an ingredient more fitting for a pie. A more horrifying invasion 

of picnic pests took place in Toronto’s Power Plant Gallery when two Mexican artists painted 

a mural using human fat as ‘paint’. According to Vancouver curator Keith Wallace, by the 

third day, the ‘goop’ was alive with ants and the smell was unbearable. 

Artists sometimes encourage, accept and even accelerate the deterioration of a piece by shining 

hot lights on the vegetation or bottom-of-the-food-chain creatures it includes. More typically, 

however, artists don’t want anything too detrimental to occur. This was undoubtedly the case 

with Liz Magor’s 1977 Time and Mrs. Tibor installation that the VAG exhibited just as the artist 

was gaining prominence. 

Time and Mrs. Tibor was an installation of Magor’s deceased neighbour’s wooden pantry that 

had been part of her tumbled-down farm house. On its shelves were Mrs. Tibor’s own preserves 

along with Magor’s newly canned jars of wild flowers. The sculpture was purchased by the 

National Gallery of Canada and shortly thereafter some substances in the jars began to ferment. 

Extraordinary measures were taken to eliminate the inherent vice so that Time and Mrs. Tibor 

could have an eternal, problem free-life. 

Many of the N.E.Thing Company’s ‘bagged’ vinyl landscapes, plastic inflatable abstract 

shapes, low-relief vacuum-formed or crushed container sculptures that were produced in the 

mid to late ‘60’s are not ageing well. This is due to the tendency of some plastics to bio-degrade, 

especially when exposed to heat and light. Some, but not these works, have become brittle and 

discoloured. Neither flaw can be reversed, but some pieces can be stabilized under certain conditions. 

In this case, it is up to fate and conservators to determine how long the works survive.

Jude Norris: Roots, Scars, Nests & Tines; 

New Positions, Timeless Paradigms 

CAMPBELL RIVER & DISTRICT PUBLIC ART GALLERY BC – APR 13-MAY 18 

Jude Norris is a multimedia artist from Alberta, with a self-described 

heritage of Cree/Little Russian/Anishnawbe/Scottish/Gypsy/Métis. Her 

cultural affiliation is Plains Cree and she currently lives in Toronto. Norris’ 

artwork represents contradictions in living as an indigenous person in a 

contemporary colonial environment. 

This exhibition, Roots, Scars, Nests & Tines; New Positions, Timeless 

Paradigms, brings together multi-disciplinary pieces from four series. The 

natural materials that inspire her “soft architectures” and canvases include 

real animal antlers; “wounds” that have been “healed” with sinew stitching; 

natural and manufactured materials twisted into braids; and stick frames 

and nests built with ribbons, strips of beadwork, fur, fake hair, rubber or 

wool. The materials reflect traditional connections with First Nations art 

but the pieces themselves – including sculptures, wall pieces and video 

installations – emulate contemporary art practices. The artist declares, “I 

collaborate” with objects and images gathered from the land and animals, 

and reposition them in ‘art world’ contexts that emphasize their physical 

beauty, but also poke quiet but serious ‘fun’ at their misplacement.” 

Norris studied integrated media at the Ontario College of Art & Design 

in Toronto, Ontario and art at Middlesex University and Kensington & 

Chelsea College, in London, England. Her videos have been screened 

extensively at events across Canada and her work has been exhibited 

internationally. Mia Johnson

The Art of the Sari 

SURREY ART GALLERY, SURREY BC – through Jun 10 The 

sari has existed for over 5000 years and continues to be 

worn by a billion women around the world. It is the most 

common form of dress in India. In celebration of the 

multipurpose costume, The Surrey Art Gallery presents 

The Art of the Sari, an exhibition showing the sari as a form 

of living art. 

Historically, Hindus believed that cloth pierced by 

needles was impure, so a long length of simple cloth was 

adapted to fit the body. In terms of beauty, the sari 

emphasizes small waists and curvaceous busts and hips. 

From a utilitarian point of view, the sari is ideal for 

complete coverage of the female body at work. The 

adaptable sari can be worn as shorts, trousers, a flowing 

gown or as a skirt. In fact, more than fifteen styles can be 

found throughout India alone. From 5 yards to 9.5 yards 

long, depending on the status of the wearer and its use, the cloth is tied loosely, folded and pleated. A 

petticoat or “ghagra” and a blouse or “choli” were adopted in the 19th century and are sometimes 

worn under the sari. With globalization, western dress has been increasingly embraced, but the sari is 

still preferred for dress occasions, rituals and ceremonies around the world, and for utilitarian 

purposes in rural India. 

The Art of the Sari showcases centuries-old traditional crafts of weaving, printing and decoration in 

historical saris, as well as glamorous contemporary saris designed and created for this exhibit. They

Practical Art History or 

Confessions of a Fine Art Appraiser 

Chapter 9. The Case of Looe Pool. 

Several weeks ago I received a call from a gentleman who 

wanted his collection of paintings appraised for insurance 

purposes. 

After reviewing the collection I surmised that three pieces, 

an exquisite oil on canvas and two well-executed watercolours, 

all by the same hand, exhibited sufficient artistic merit to 

warrant a written appraisal. My client indicated he was a second 

generation relative of the artist and that he had inherited the 

two watercolours some years ago. The oil painting, he had 

purchased at auction, some 25 years earlier. 

The paintings were signed by S.J. Lamorna Birch and in 

some cases dated. The oil had a gallery label on the reverse, 

which included the title of Looe Pool, Helstrom. The larger of the 

two watercolours was inscribed on the back “Harvest Time”, 

while the smaller watercolour appeared to be a hand-painted, 

personalized, Christmas card sent to “Charlie” in 1940. I was 

astounded to discover that the illustrious relative of my client 

was the renowned British painter, Samuel Lamorna Birch R.A. 

(1869-1955). 

Samuel John Birch was born in Egremont, Cheshire. Birch 

first visited West Cornwall (England) in the late 1880s and 

settled in the Lamorna Valley in 1892. He adopted the epithet 

Lamorna in 1895 to distinguish himself from fellow artist 

Lionel Birch (an idea suggested by Stanhope Forbes). 

He is regarded as the father figure of the later group of 

‘Newlyn’ artists, which included Laura and Harold Knight (who 

he met in 1907), Alfred Munnings, Frank Gascoigne Heath, 

Stanley Gardiner and Charles and Ella Naper, forming a second 

artists colony in the Lamorna Valley, often referred to as the 

Lamorna group. Birch was elected as an Associate of the Royal

S.J. Lamorna Birch, Lamorna Cove looking 

towards Carn Dhu 

Academy (A.R.A.) in 1924 and was made a full Royal Academician (R.A.) eight years later. 

The oil titled Looe Pool, Helstrom was probably purchased from the S.J. Lamorna Birch 

Memorial Exhibition, Fine Art Society, London, October 1955. The title refers to the largest 

natural freshwater lake in Cornwall. The pool was originally the estuary of the River Cober which 

flows through the former port of Helston. The Pool is reputed to be the lake in which Sir Bedivere 

cast King Arthur’s sword, Excalibur. Local superstition also warns that the Pool claims a victim 

every seven years. 

The watercolour titled Harvest Time is possibly a view in the Cotswolds and probably dates 

from the 1920s, painted during one of Birch’s visits to his friend and etcher Frederick Griggs at 

Campden, Gloucestershire. The small watercolour Christmas card depicts a view from the 

Lamorna harbour wall (Lamorna Cove) looking towards the rocks at Carn Dhu (black rock-pile). 

On completing the appraisal, I was informed by my client that other relatives also owned 

works by their illustrious ancestor. These included drawings, watercolours and small oils, mainly 

images in and around Lamorna Cove, Cornwall.

David A. Haughton: Kindertotentanz 

GALLERY O - CONTEMPORARY, THE ART CENTER, VANCOUVER BC – May 3-17 David A. Haughton’s 

Kindertotentanz are difficult and disturbing works. Kindertotentanz, meaning “children’s dance of 

death”, is a group of over 100 works created between 1984 and 2000, including etchings, aquatints, 

pen and ink drawings, oil paintings on canvas and acrylic paintings. They explore Dr. Haughton’s 

emotions as a pediatrician faced with the suffering of very ill and dying children, particularly during 

his early years of paediatric training in Los Angeles. 

The sad fact is, between genetic disorders, premature births, fetal alcohol syndrome, cancer, 

meningitis, neurological development and more, the malformations pictured here are a distinct reality. 

The expectation of a "normal" child is reasonable, but not 

necessarily a reality. 

The most affirmative spirit in the work can be traced to 

art created by the Maori people of New Zealand, through 

which Haughton found the language to structure his images. 

Figuring prominently are lizards, birds, eels and fish, the 

night, heavens and the moon. The lizard, signifying death, is 

a key element in the Maori theory of disease, and the 

doctor's task is to stop the lizard from entering the child’s 

mouth. In many of Haughton's images, the infants 

themselves are left to wrestle with the lizard. Witnessing the 

fateful struggles are Greek Orthodox-like saints from 

Haughton’s own ancestry, who provide the viewer with 

glimpses of hope, reverence and even awe. As both a doctor 

and an artist, his penetrating work is a true gift to us. 

David Haughton is simultaneously exhibiting Ships, 

Mountains, and the Sea IV, a series of British Columbia 

coastal landscapes, May 3-27 at The Art Center. Mia Johnson

DIANE FARRIS GALLERY, VANCOUVER – Apr 5-28 Chris Woods 

continues to query our automotive aspirations in his second series 

of work about car culture, The Magic Hour, Part Two. In 2004, he 

examined the dark side of car advertising in The Magic Hour, Part 

One. The images in Part Two revel in the sense of mastery afforded 

by cars. 

Several paintings depict figures holding swords aloft, extolling 

the powers granted to them by their cars and feeling 

indestructible. “Six-Point Adjustable” features a woman crouched 

in front of her car wearing nothing but a bulletproof vest. In 

“Professional Driver, Closed Course”, a woman stands behind her 

open car door deflecting bullets. Using a combination of 

photographs shot in his studio, ads culled from magazines and 

stock photos from the Internet, Woods continues to question not 

only the influence of the car over us, but our choice in using cars 

– especially SUVs and other “road weapons” – against ourselves. 

He asks, “Does the car seek to bless us or destroy us” 

Woods is known for posing his Gen-X friends in parodies of 

consumerism. His McTopia series probed the ubiquity of fast food 

franchises, including our devotion to corporations like

Mowry Baden: Day by Day 

DELUGE GALLERY, VICTORIA BC – APR 6-MAY 12 Mowry 

Baden is a prominent Canadian sculptor who has 

influenced a generation of sculptors in Canada and the 

United States with his participatory installations. He has 

been described as “a maker of task-oriented objects” 

intended to lure visitors and stimulate physical and 

perceptual interaction. The Deluge exhibit presents a 

selection of over 70 drawings from among hundreds of 

sketchbook pages. The drawings include schematics for 

sculptural projects, delicate figurative sketches and 

abstract illustrations. They provide a rare look at Baden’s 

creative process. 

Baden’s body-oriented works of the late 1960s and 

early 1970s, and his broader interest in the perceptual 

and interactive possibilities of art were considered 

influential to artists Kim Adams, Lewis Baltz, Michael 

Brewster, Chris Burden, Stephen Davis, and Jessica 

Stockholder. His conceptual frameworks, borrowed from 

psychology, architecture and performance, challenge the 

tenets of contemporary sculpture. 

Baden taught at Stanford University, the University of

American Abstraction: Works from the Washington 

Art Consortium Collection 

WHATCOM MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND ART, BELLINGHAM WA – May 13-Nov 11 One of the 

functions of the Washington Art Consortium, an educational cooperative of seven art museums in 

Washington State, is the preservation of a collection of American artworks created between 1945- 

1975. From this collection, The Whatcom Museum, has 

organized American Abstraction. The exhibit presents 52 

works on paper by artists who have made significant 

contributions to the genre of abstract art. Artists include 

William de Kooning, Richard Diebenkorn, John Cage, 

Hans Hofmann, Jasper Johns, Robert Motherwell, Richard 

Serra and Frank Stella. 

The drawings, prints and paintings in this exhibit were 

created during the latter half of the 20th century when 

abstraction was the favoured style in America. They are 

presented in groupings that aim to provide different 

contexts in which nonrepresentational art developed. 

Although most of the pieces featured are not 

considered the most significant works by these artists, the 

Robert Ryman, Yellow Drawing 35, (1963), 

charcoal, pencil and white pastel on ochre paper 

[Whatcom Museum of History and Art, Bellingham 

WA, May 13-Nov 11] 

exhibit does provide an overview of the challenges 

encountered by abstract artists and seeks to broaden the 

viewer’s understanding of the dual processes of creating 

and deciphering abstract art. Allyn Cantor

PREVIEW 61

VANCOUVER ART GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Apr 5-Sept 16 House of Oracles is the first 

retrospective of one of China’s most influential contemporary artists, Huang Yong Ping. The Chineseborn 

and Paris-based artist is known for his spectacular largescale 

installations that simultaneously entertain, shock and 

critique. The exhibition, a “hybrid of fun house, diorama and 

menagerie”, was previously shown at the Walker Art Center 

in Minneapolis and features more than forty of Huang Yong 

Ping’s works, including a monumental sculpture. 

Huang's sculptures and installations have been described 

as “highly realistic and energetic”. He draws on the legacies of 

western modernists like Joseph Beuys and John Cage, as well 

as Chinese traditions of Zen and Taoism when juxtaposing 

traditional images with modern references. The most amazing 

sculpture in this exhibit expresses “the nightmare of George 

V” by posing a snarling tiger on top of a life-size elephant. The 

materials are as diverse as concrete, reinforced steel, animal 

skins, fabrics and plastics, wood and cane. 

Since his leadership, in the 1980s, of a subversive artists’ 

collective in Xiamen, China, Huang has been described as 

artist, magician, fortune-teller, alchemist, healer, teacher, 

philosopher, and writer. In the last decade, he has created a 

completely original and provocative zoological realm using 

both live animals and animal reproductions to represent 

various man-made social, political and historical events. 

House of Oracles is accompanied by a 250-page illustrated catalogue. Mia Johnson

The Portland Grid Project 

MAIN GALLERY, PORTLAND ART CENTER, OR – Apr 5-27 The Portland Grid Project represents the 

culmination of an ambitious plan that began in 1995. Christopher Rauschenberg, son of Robert 

Rauschenberg and an artist with the Elizabeth 

Leach Gallery, organized a group of 15 

photographers to document the city of Portland 

square-by-square. A street map of Portland was 

cut into 98 sections and photographed one 

month at a time by a group of changing 

participants. Many are members of the Blue 

Sky Gallery. A total of 21 photographers were 

involved in creating the estimated 20,000 prints 

generated by the project. Seven curators from 

different institutions then organized the images 

into individually focused shows to create an 

overall exhibition of 3000 works. 

For the photographers, there were no 

requirements other than to consistently 

preview 

www.portlandart.org 

David Potter, J8, [Main Gallery, Portland Art Center, OR, Apr 5-27] 

photograph the designated grid section. The unintended commonality was the lack of a human 

subject in most pieces. Instead, a tension between nature and structure is represented in the quiet 

streets, moody skylines, industrials neighborhoods, backyards and waterways that compose this 

photographic essay of Portland. 

Portions of the Grid Project were shown in 2005 as part of the Contemporary American 

Photography exhibit at the Internationale Fototage in Mannheim, Germany. The current exhibition 

is the largest to date and on view as part of the Photolucida Festival. Allyn Cantor

Ed Kamuda: New Oils and Gouaches 

LISA HARRIS GALLERY, SEATTLE WA – Apr 5-28 Ed 

Kamuda is a self-taught painter well-established in the 

Seattle area for more than thirty years. With a highly 

personal vision of reality, he reduces three-dimensional 

elements to primitive, linear shapes that have the 

simplicity of folk art yet manage to retain the 

sophisticated resonance of Expressionism. 

Through his spare, evocative images, Kamuda 

demonstrates a reverie for nature and a meaningful 

connection with the original subjects. His stacked 

compositions of local scenes conjure images by Paul 

Klee. Kamuda’s work is characterized by a rich, earthy 

surface depth created with layers of oil paint and wax. 

The physicality is heightened by palette knife marks. 

In this new exhibit, Kamuda has also created a group 

of large-scale gouache paintings. These pieces share the 

soft and dreamy movement of his oil paintings. The 

preview

varnish [Lisa Harris Gallery, Seattle WA, Apr 5-28] 

water-based media allows the shapes to dance on the picture plane creating a sense of lightness.

School as Morris Graves and Guy Anderson, the latter a friend of Kamuda’s. Allyn Cantor

John Massey is one of Canada's foremost conceptual 

artists. He is the son of a prominent architect, the 

grandson of Vincent Massey, and the descendant of a 

patrician family of arts patrons. Massey became a sculptor, 

filmmaker, installation artist and photographer. He was an 

early adopter of digital photography and continues to 

combine conventional photography with computer 

manipulation. 

Since the late 1970s, Massey’s work has involved 

photographs of architectural interiors and the articulation 

of scale models of rooms. They have been shown in major 

exhibitions in Germany, the United States, France, 

Australia, and Canada. In 2001, Massey was awarded the 

Gershon Iskowitz Award for lifetime achievement.

major retrospective at the Vancouver Art Gallery in the spring of 2007. The catalogue

work since 1953. Herzog provides a nostalgic and provocative look at the identity of

Main Street and Robson Street.

Jan Tumlir, showcases the artist’s arresting photos of abandoned and vandalized 

buildings. The disturbing beautiful colour photos especially of homes by the sea in 

Zuma (1977-78) reveal burnt-out window frames, spray-bombed walls and junkstrewn 

floors in stark contrast to the romantic sunsets and cloudscapes beyond the 

windows. Other images include exterior and interior photographs of houses undergoing 

removal from a neighbourhood near LAX in 1976 which Divola entered and 

spray-painted before photographing.

SEATTLE ART MUSEUM, WA – May 5-Sept 9 The Seattle Art Museum reopens this spring after a 

major expansion of the downtown building. Exciting programming for 2007/08 includes an 

exhibition of 16th-19th Century Japanese Art from the Kobe City Museum, a Gaylen Hansen 

retrospective, Roman Art from the Louvre and a major exhibit of Coast Salish Art. 

The inaugural exhibit, SAM at 75: Building a Collection for 

Seattle, features new acquisitions and gifts in honour of the 

Museum’s upcoming 75th anniversary. Approximately 200 

pieces will be featured in the galleries and also integrated 

within the permanent collections. 

When entering the block-long public space of the new 

SAM building, impressive installations by Cai Guo-Qiang can 

be viewed on the first and second floors. On the ground level 

is Inopportune: Stage One, a nine-car piece meant to re-enact a 

Ford Taurus somersaulting through the air. Each suspended 

vehicle represents a moment in time, like stills from a video. 

Colourful flashing LED lights give the piece a theatrical tone 

that adds to the experiential element of the work. In an 

adjacent gallery, a video work by Guo-Qiang entitled Illusion 

depicts a car exploding in Times Square, New York. The actual 

burned car used in the creation of the piece accompanies the 

video for a heightened sense of reality. Both of these works are
