Subject: AFA  changes

Hello, Bonjour Everyone;
The Calgary visual arts community recently met with the Alberta Foundation
of the Arts' (AFA) representative to discuss the changes made to funding
for the arts in our province.  The changes are not good, to say the least,
and the meeting reflected our collective dismay over the direction the AFA
is taking.  The following is a letter we have sent out to our gallery's
members, galleries in our province and other concerned parties.  We would
be obliged to you if you could spread the word to others we may have
missed because we need all the support we can get.  For more information
on the AFA, the announced changes (Sept. 22 Press Release), as well as
their blueprint for change, their website is: http://www.affta.ab.ca
Please contact Tammy McGrath, The New Gallery's Programming Coordinator
with any questions you may have about our community's concerns.

Thank you very much,
Melody Jacobson
Resource Coordinator
The New Gallery, Calgary, AB

If the following is too long to resend to your e-list, please feel free to
edit. *** Please send letters to the AFA concerning the cuts to the Arts! 
You are welcome to use the letter below as a model.  There is an AFA board
meeting this Thursday (Oct. 26) , please, please, please write letters to
the AFA this week - the future of the arts in Alberta depends on your
support!

If you have any questions please contact me.

        Arts Development Consultant
        Alberta Foundation for the Arts

Dear John Osler,

I am writing at this time to ask you, as the Chairman for the Alberta
Foundation of the Arts, how the AFA can justify implementing the Community
Derived Revenue formula for the visual art organizations across Alberta
when the AFA already knows that all but two of these organizations will
have their funding cut and/or completely eliminated over a 3 year period.
The Alberta Associatation of Art Galleries (AAAG)consulted with the AFA on
numerous occasions concerning the CDR formula.  Each time AAAG informed
the AFA that a direct result of the CDR formula would be the crippling of
artistic activity across the province.

As well, I am disturbed by the new focus the AFA is taking.  By supporting
youth programs and eliminating funding for adult education, the AFA is
advocating the deprofessionalization of the arts in favor of youth.  Youth
programs are the jurisdiction of the school board, and not the AFA.  The
emphasis of the AFA on youth programs will leave emerging, mid-career, and
established artists with a serious lack of support.

I understand that the AFA has not received more money for the visual arts
in over a decade.  Calgary artists will be lobbying the government for
more money for the arts effective immediately.  It is important for these
artists to be assured that the AFA will distribute its funds in a
responsible manner, and discontinue using the CDR formula.

As a supporter of the Arts in Alberta and across Canada, I am
philosophically opposed to the Community Derived Revenue formula.  The CDR
formula will be detrimental to individual artists and arts organizations
in Alberta and I am requesting that the AFA NOT implement this formula.

Sincerely,
Tammy McGrath
Programming Coordinator

***TRANSLATION

RE :  CANADA COUNCIL FOR THE ARTS
          Annual assistance to production organizations, Media Arts
          Section


(EXCERPTS)

David Poole, Head of the Media Arts Section has informed CQAM [Conseil
québécois des arts médiatiques] and IFVA [Independent Film and Video
Alliance] that the November 1st deadline for applications for annual
assistance to production organizations has been extended to November 20.
The Media Arts Section will be allotted an additional 1M$ but Heritage
Canada has not sent its memorandum concerning the distribution of moneys
within the section. However, it is possible that this additional sum will
be applied to annual assistance and equipment purchases. David Poole is
suggesting to all organizations intending to apply, that they think about
these possibilities and wait for the information concerning the
distribution of these additional funds.

David Poole also asks not to be inundated with calls. He will inform CQAM
and IFVA as soon as the exact allocation of funds will be known. (...)

Subject: Western Front Performance: call for curatorial proposals

CALL FOR CURATORIAL PROPOSALS
In Performance Art
The Western Front Society
October 4, 2000

The Western Front is looking for proposals from independent curators and
artist/curators for a guest curatorship in performance art and
inderdisciplinary practice. The project will take place in the fall of
2001 (September - November), and is intended to coincide with Vancouver's
performance art biennial (a city wide performance art festival, with
events scheduled for October 15 - November 30).

Proposals are expected to fit within a budget of $5000 which must include
all artist fees, curators fee, and production/presentation expenses. It is
likely that the Western Front can offer additional support of 1 airfare
and accomodation.

This project will have access to the facilities of the Western Front which
include: a large performance hall (with lights, sound system, video
projection, etc..) and a media (video/audio/new-media/web) production
studio. Technical support will be provided by in house technicians and
volunteers.

The Performance Art program at the Western Front has a long history of
supporting diverse programming. The organization defines Performance Art
and interdisciplinary practice in an inclusive rather than an exclusive
way. Proposals can take many forms, come from different traditions, and
make use of varying levels of technology and/or lack of technology.

The Western Front asks curators to consider the following options in terms
of their proposals: 1. a series of 3 solo performances by different
artists, spread over a period of 3 months. 2. a collaborative project
involving many artists in a single show with subsequent artist talks. 3.
the inclusion of workshops relating to both creation and presention.

Proposals should include a project description, C.V., and
slides/video/catalogues of previous work. Interested curators can contact
members of the performance art committee at the Western Front either by
phone or e-mail.

Contact: Jonathan Middleton (exhibitions@front.bc.ca)
or Peter Courtemanche (media@front.bc.ca)
Telephone: (604) 876-9343

The Western Front web site (www.front.bc.ca) contains an archive of some
recent performances and other works presented by the organization.

The deadline for proposals is December 1, 2000.

Please send all materials to:

information call (416) 971-8405. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The Images Festival of Independent Film & Video (April 12-21, 2001) is
kickstarting its 14th year with a special screening of Gary Burns'
award-winning new film, waydowntown. From the director of Kitchen Party
and The Suburbanators comes this wry and darkly comic film set in the
claustrophobic maze of corporate offices and interconnecting pathways of
downtown Calgary. Shot in digital video and 35mm, waydowntown follows an
afternoon in the lives of four young office workers who have bet a month's
salary on who can stay indoors the longest. It is day 24 of the wager and
events take a decidedly surreal turn. The cast includes Don McKellar as
office drone Brad, a 20 year veteran of the firm who contemplates jumping
out a window, and Fabrizio Filippo as Tom, whose participation in the
wager pushes him to a crisis of conscience, not to mention superhero
sightings.

waydowntown recently won the Toronto-City Award for Best Canadian Feature
Film at the Toronto International Film Festival (cited for its "wry
examination of contemporary life, risk-taking, and strong performances, as
well as its rich sense of humanity") and the Federal Express Award for
Most Popular Canadian Film at the Vancouver International Film Festival.

Director Gary Burns will be in attendance at the screening. This is a
great chance to see an exciting new indie film, meet the filmmaker, and
support The Images Festival of Independent Film & Video. Join us for

Subject: Projet d'infiltration télévisuelle

SURFACE SOURIRE/HAPPY FAKE
Sylvie Cotton
Octobre 21 - November 4, 2000

It is in your living-room that Sylvie Cotton comes for her first
contribution to Les commensaux. She has chosen to infiltrate the TV
network by broadcasting a short animation between ads. The image is
simple: a happy face appears and then slowly transforms itself. The
American icon chosen by the artist, her minimal, even low tech
intervention, the sound break that attracks attention and the visual
challenge are some of many strategies that Cotton uses to imitate
advertising. Although the ad may leave the viewer confused about the
nature of the product', the artist's message is quite clear: it's the
signature of apparent happiness, of mandatory positivisism that Sylvie
Cotton questions with the alteration of the happy face. The broadcast of
this message on many occasions is in itself the result of intensive
negociation with numerous TV network people. Cotton's intervention will
also be visible on loop at SKOL, during the entire time period.
Multidisciplinary artist, Sylvie Cotton aims to transform the
dissemination of art by taking it outside of the usual exhibition spaces.
Her work has been presented throughout Quebec, in numerous exhibitions,
performances and residencies. The artist wishes to thank the Inter-Arts
Program of the Canada Council for the Arts for its financial support, as
well as Joëlle Riopel for her infography work. *l horaire de diffusion à

 PRESSE RELEASE


Artist:    Gabriel Routhier
Title of exhibition:  Les Carnets
Dates:   October 27 to Novembre 19, 2000

>From October 27 to November 19, 2000, the Centre de diffusion Presse
Papier presents the exhibition "Les Carnets" (The Diaries), a series of
woodcuts (1998-2000) by artist Gabriel Routhier.

Gabriel Routhier, an artist from Quebec City, has received his B.F.A. from
Université du Québec à Chicoutimi in 1984.  He has presented more than
fifteen solo exhibitions in Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia.  He has
taken part in more than sixty group exhibitions, across Quebec and
internationally.  He was also awarded several grants, including an A grant
from Conseil des Arts et des Lettres du Québec in 1997.  In 1997-98, he
participated in the Salon des Arts Graphiques actuels "Saga" in Paris,
represented by Galerie Madeleine Lacerte in Quebec City.

The artist presents his exhibition in these terms:

I propose large scale woodcuts with collages and chines collés, entitled "
Les Carnets "(1998-2000). The motifs are inspired by elements from the
animal and plant kingdoms, in relation to the body and to landscape. This
series is based on a reflection on the perception of human subjects in
their relation to the universe.  These works can be read as memory pages
dissimulating both the fragility and vulnerability of human beings
developed in my earlier series.

All are welcome to the opening on Friday, October 27 at 8:00 pm, at the
Centre de diffusion Presse Papier, 75, rue St-Antoine in Trois-Rivières,
Quebec.  The artist will be in attendance.  The exhibition will continue
until November 19, 2000.


The gallery is open Tuesday to Sunday,  from 2:00 to 5:00 pm.
