On this particular class, I really enjoyed the story performed to us. Because to a certain point, that's what every class is. That and exchange and connection through conversation. But the story (or rather a story) of contemporary painting in Canada was one I had never really heard before, and I was very glad to finally hear some of the conversation around the once controversial "death of painting". I'm glad everyone got over it, and that it stayed alive!
I have been paying closer attention lately to stories and conversations whether they be in the form of song, poetry, short stories, art shows or lectures. Here are a couple of fabulous examples:
Spoken word poetry
Sarah Kay
Andrea Gibson

Oh Canada, at MASS MoCA
Atlantic (Sackville!) artists part of the larger national and international art conversation through MASS MoCA's show Oh, Canada!
