Open Studio: Like ships in the night
Open Studio is a video series that takes you inside the studios and creative spaces of Banff Centre's artists.
Like ships in the night centres around a journey that Montreal-based, Algonquin artist and filmmaker Caroline Monnet took in the summer of 2012, where she boarded a ship docked at the Dutch port of Ijmuiden, on the coast west of Amsterdam. What ensued was a twenty-two-day voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, documented by the artist via handheld Mini DV.
Monnet critiques the colonial, industrial and economic interchange between Canada and Europe as an indigenous woman. Like ships in the night speaks to the interconnectedness and the diversity of views that shape our place within the world, shedding light on the given historical and cultural complexities of our contemporary colonial context.
This solo exhibition in the Walter Phillips Gallery was curated by former WPG Curator, Peta Rake.

Artist Talk | Duane Linklater, Audain Visual Artist in Residence
January 27, 2014
Djavad Mowafaghian World Art Centre

---
The Wood Land School project emerges out of Linklater's investigation into Indigenous artists who were based in northern Ontario in the 1970s. That generation of artists consisted of image-makers who engaged with Indigenous art forms and histories, both contemporary and ancient. Each new iteration of this project is interested in continuing and expanding those artists' work through the viewing of historic and contemporary films, reading of articles and books, and through open discourse with artists, writers, curators and anyone else who wishes to take part and contribute.
Duane Linklater is Omaskêko Cree, from Moose Cree First Nation in Northern Ontario and is currently based in North Bay, Ontario. He was educated at the University of Alberta, receiving a Bachelor of Native Studies and a Bachelor of Fine Arts. Linklater attended the Milton Avery Graduate School of Arts at Bard College in upstate New York, completing his Master of Fine Arts in Film and Video. Linklater produces a range of work, including video and film installation, performance and sculptural objects, and often works within the contexts of cooperative and collaborative gestures. He has exhibited and screened his work nationally and internationally, including the Vancouver Art Gallery, Art Gallery of Alberta and Family Business Gallery in New York, and has an upcoming exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in Philadelphia. His collaborative film project with Brian Jungen, Modest Livelihood, was originally presented at the Walter Phillips Gallery at The Banff Centre as a part of dOCUMENTA (13), with subsequent exhibitions at the Logan Centre Gallery at the University of Chicago, Catriona Jeffries Gallery in Vancouver and the Art Gallery of Ontario. Linklater is the recipient of the 2013 Sobey Art Award, an annual prize given to a Canadian artist under 40.
Presented by the SFU School for the Contemporary Arts' Audain Visual Artist in Residence Program and Audain Gallery.
