- Abstract
- Pertains to the ways in which race, gender, colonization and social expectations influenced art produced by women. The location of analysis is specific to Canada, and thus pertains to the Rocky Mountains in the sense that many artists resided in and around the area where the external pressures would have likely been present. The book provides a thorough analysis into the history and philosophy surrounding women’s art, and the external factors that shaped its evolution in Canada.

- Abstract
- Passion Over Reason: Tom Thomson & Joyce Wieland pays tribute to two groundbreaking Ontario-born artists. The title of the exhibition is a deliberate reversal of former Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau’s oft-quoted personal motto, “Reason over passion”. Consider this exhibition to be a passionate love letter to Tom Thomson and Canada – two subjects at the core of this sesquicentennial year – and a conversation between masterworks by Thomson and by Canada’s feminist art pioneer Joyce Wieland (abstract taken from the McMichael: Canadian Art Collection)
