Egoyan's filmmaking career is well-documented but his equally prestigious reputation as a visual artist, less so. This publication fills that gap. With an interview, filmography, bibliography and a list of Egoyan's installations and projects.

Tarantino, Michael

Ismert, Louise

This publication draws attention to the coherence and consistency of a sculptural practice which is notable as much for its plastic and symbolic force as for the universality of its subjects. An interview, an essay and several colour plates are accompanied by an original 10 page artist's project.

<p>Jean-Pierre Gauthier creates sound environments using ordinary objects, modulated sounds and physical interaction. His art is divided between "systemic and mechanical-hygienic installations" and sound installations. The first group features everyday objects that are subjected to operations, such as contraction, compression, dissolution and disappearance. In other works, he weaves sound and space together through soundscapes, automated instruments and sound animation and various acoustic systems. The resulting installations are physically independent and bear symbolic reference to commercial exploitation and economic cycles. The analog animation movements of these kinetic creations lend his installations a faintly antiquated character despite their obvious technological ingenuity. This publication is the first monograph dedicated to his work. Gauthier was the 2004 winner of the Sobey Art Award, Canada's pre-eminent prize for young Canadian artists. In English and French.</p>

History & Criticism

Referencing Mallarme, Euclid and Nijinsky, Davis presents four new works which explore the relationships between geometry, dance and time. Over the last twenty years, the Toronto-based artist has developed an installation practice that, while eschewing easy classification, has resulted in a range of highly evocative works that are intellectually demanding, yet resonate on visual, visceral and material levels. In English and French.
