Cabin fever

https://archives.whyte.org/en/permalink/catalogue19780

Medium: Library - Book (including soft-cover and pamphlets)

Published Date: 2018

Author: Volland, Jennifer M. (editor), Bruce Grenville (editor), Stephanie Rebick (editor)

Publisher: Vancouver, BC : Vancouver Art Gallery : Information Office

Call Number: 06.5 Vo88c

Author: Volland, Jennifer M. (editor), Bruce Grenville (editor), Stephanie Rebick (editor)

Responsibility: Edited by Jennifer M. Volland, Bruce Grenville, Stephanie Rebick

Publisher: Vancouver, BC : Vancouver Art Gallery : Information Office

Published Date: 2018

Physical Description: 309 pages, 10 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations (some color) ; 25 cm

Medium: Library - Book (including soft-cover and pamphlets)

Subjects: Cabins; Cabins and shelters; Architecture; Exhibitions; Exhibition catalogue; History

Abstract: "Cabin Fever traces the tradition of the cabin in Canada and the United States--from the settlement of the frontier to the contemporary depictions feverishly circulated across the Internet--showing how this humble architectural form has been appropriated for its symbolic value and helped shape a larger cultural identity. The exhibition title is borrowed from the idiomatic expression for an anxious state of mind resulting from a prolonged stay in a remote or confined place. But it also plays upon the more consumer-driven definition of "fever:" a contagious, usually transient, fascination with an object of desire. Cabin Fever will offer a historical and cultural survey of the cabin in North America, an acknowledgement of the pervasive influence of this typology. Not only has the cabin survived in various forms and iterations, but it also has resonated deeply in our cultural psyche."-- Provided by publisher.
