Victoria Park - Queen Victoria Statue, 57 Jubilee Dr, Kitchener,
Queen Victoria is a video projection of life stories of as told by seven community members, projected on the statue of Queen Victoria, in Victoria Park, Kitchener.
On May 17th and 18th of the Victoria Day week-end just past, seven individuals from the community were told their life stories. Each individual was video recorded with two video cameras. A head mounted camera was focused on the face to capture a fixed image of the head and the expressiveness of the eyes and mouth. A second camera was focussed on the torso, to capture the the expressiveness of the hands and arms.
The two video recordings were merged into one, to be projected onto the statue and to track and fill in the face and torso of Queen Victoria. The projected video animates the statue, effectively making the face and hands of the Queen those of each individual story teller.
Krzysztof Wodiczko is Professor in Residence of Art, Design, and the Public Domain at the Harvard Graduate School of Design. He is renowned for his large-scale slide and video projections on architectural facades and monuments. He has realized more than eighty such public projections in Australia, Austria, Canada, England, Germany, Holland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Mexico, Poland, Spain, Switzerland, and the United States. Since the late 1980s, his projections have involved the active participation of marginalized and estranged city residents. Simultaneously, he has been designing and implementing a series of nomadic instruments and vehicles with homeless, immigrant, and war veteran operators for their survival and communication.
Gary Kirkham is a Kitchener-based playwright, actor and filmmaker whose plays include Falling: A Wake (Scirocco Drama), Queen Milli of Galt (Samuel French), Pearl Gidley (Scirocco Drama) and Pocket Rocket, written with Lea Daniel. He is an artistic associate at the MT Space, and has worked as a playwright collaborator with the company on several shows including Seasons of Immigration, Body 13, Occupy Spring, and the critically acclaimed The Last 15 Seconds. He has also collaborated with Lost & Found Theatre on Radio Leacock and Inter Arts Matrix on Frankenstein's Ghost. He authored an adaptation of Easter by August Strindberg for the Chemainus Festival. His plays have had over 40 productions across Canada, the United States and the Middle East. Gary was the Blyth Festival’s Playwright in Residence in 2008.

Places to see in ( London - UK ) V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum
The Victoria and Albert Museum, London, is the world's largest museum of decorative arts and design, housing a permanent collection of over 4.5 million objects. V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum was founded in 1852 and named after Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.
V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum is located in the Brompton district of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, in an area that has become known as Albertopolis because of its association with Prince Albert, the Albert Memorial and the major cultural institutions with which he was associated. These include the Natural History Museum, the Science Museum and the Royal Albert Hall. V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. Like other national British museums, entrance to V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum has been free since 2001.
V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum covers 12.5 acres and 145 galleries. V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum collection spans 5,000 years of art, from ancient times to the present day, from the cultures of Europe, North America, Asia and North Africa. The holdings of ceramics, glass, textiles, costumes, silver, ironwork, jewellery, furniture, medieval objects, sculpture, prints and printmaking, drawings and photographs are among the largest and most comprehensive in the world. V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum owns the world's largest collection of post-classical sculpture, with the holdings of Italian Renaissance items being the largest outside Italy. The departments of Asia include art from South Asia, China, Japan, Korea and the Islamic world. The East Asian collections are among the best in Europe, with particular strengths in ceramics and metalwork, while the Islamic collection is amongst the largest in the Western world. Overall, V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum is one of the largest museums in the world.
Since 2001, V&A - Victoria and Albert Museum has embarked on a major £150m renovation programme, which has seen a major overhaul of the departments, including the introduction of newer galleries, gardens, shops and visitor facilities. The V&A has no museums or galleries of its own outside London. Instead it works with a small number of partner organisations in Sheffield, Dundee and Blackpool to provide a regional presence.
The V&A is in discussion with the University of Dundee, University of Abertay, Dundee City Council and the Scottish Government with a view to opening a new £43 million gallery in Dundee that would use the V&A brand although it would be funded through and operated independently. As of 2015, with costs estimated at £76 million, it is the most expensive gallery project ever undertaken in Scotland. The V&A Dundee will be on the city's waterfront and is intended to focus on fashion, architecture, product design, graphic arts and photography. It is planned that it could open within five years. Dundee City Council is expected to pay a major part of the running costs. The V&A is not contributing financially, but will be providing expertise, loans and exhibitions. The V&A is one of 17 museums across Europe and the Mediterranean participating in a project called Discover Islamic Art. Developed by the Brussels-based consortium Museum With No Frontiers, this online virtual museum brings together more than 1200 works of Islamic art and architecture into a single database. Victoria and Albert Museum's came second to the London's top paid exhibitions in 2015 with the record-breaking Alexander McQueen show (3,472 a day).

Kate Middleton opens V&A photography centre in London
Kate, who returned from maternity leave just last week, was tonight given a personal tour of the opening display at the V&A’s new photography centre, entitled Collecting Photography: From Daguerreotype to Digital. The display explores photography from the medium’s invention in the 19th century to the present day and was of particular interest to the Duchess, a keen amateur photographer. Kate showed off her trim figure in an edgy check number from Erdem which she teamed with a waist belt, small box clutch and vertiginous heels (right). The museum director Tristram Hunt (left) showed Kate around — including into the jewellery gallery where she saw the Victoria coronet — and a more modern piece: Beyoncé's papillon ring.
