Canada
In 1967 the National Gallery of Canada mounted a major exhibition of Canadian art to circulate internationally as part of Canada’s Centennial celebrations. The project – a contemporary art show – was solicited by the Department of External Affairs (now Global Affairs Canada) in connection with the 1965 cultural agreement between Canada and France, and was scheduled to open at the Musée National d’Art Moderne in Paris in the fall of Canada’s cente…
Towards a Critical Diplomacy
This essay reflects on the potential that deepened reflexivity around cultural diplomacy has to radicalize the study and practice of diplomacy through engagement with academics and practitioners in the field of cultural relations. It explores culture’s role in cultural diplomacy as an expression of Eurocentric dualist constructions of nature and culture that reproduce a Western episteme and reassert universalizing claims that deny other ways of k…
Cold War “Cultural Safaris”
In 1955, the National Gallery of Canada circulated an exhibition of Canadian art to the “Asian commonwealth”—Pakistan, India, and Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). Developed in tandem with Canada’s involvement in the Colombo Plan for Co-operative Economic Development in South and Southeast Asia, the tour was part of a wide-angled strategy of cultural engagement that, despite its humanitarian trappings, was grounded in Cold War politics. Featuring a small d…
Terre Sauvage
This essay argues that Canada’s nationalist art narrative is a cultural resource in the present, subject to shifts in emphasis and inflection and to revision, and that its mobilization in international exhibitions makes the National Gallery of Canada a key partner of Global Affairs Canada in advancing Canada’s international relations and foreign policy initiatives. The Gallery’s millennial exhibition, Terre Sauvage: Canadian Landscape Painting an…
Contest and Controversy
Negotiations in a Vacant Lot
At a moment when the discipline of Canadian art history seems to be in flux and the study of Canadian visual culture is gaining traction outside of art history departments, the authors of Negotiations in a Vacant Lot were asked: is "Canada" - or any other nation - still relevant as a category of inquiry? Is our country simply one of many "vacant lots" where class, gender, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation interact? What happens to the proje…

Antimodernism and Artistic Experience
Antimodernism is a term used to describe the international reaction to the onslaught of the modern world that swept across industrialized Western Europe, North America, and Japan in the decades around the turn of the twentieth century. Scholars in art history, anthropology, political science, history, and feminist media studies explore antimodernism as an artistic response to a perceived sense of loss - in particular, the loss of 'authentic' expe…
Tin cans and machinery
Although little known today, the 1928 Canadian movie, Saving the Sagas, is an early example of a film recording the presence of the ethnographic fieldworker, in this case, the National Museum of Canada ethnologist Marius Barbeau (1883–1969) at work in the Nisga'a communities along the Nass River in northern British Columbia. This consideration of the film discusses the ways in which it represented those communities, first on its own and then, tog…
Some readings are more equal than others
Continuing refusal to see anything other than a stable distinction between critical studies that interrogate processes of representation and conventional studies that do not is providing new means to the reformation of social hierarchies at the very moment conventional, colonial means of reformulation are being exposed by examination. Here, consideration of two museum publications, one a critical study and one a more conventional, seemingly infor…
