Internet Art : From the Birth of the Web to the Rise of NFTs
"The story of the internet as never before told, 'Internet_Art: From the Birth of the Web to the Rise of NFTs' explores how the mass medium of our time has fostered new possibilities for art. Omar Knholeif, one of the leading voices in digital culture, presents a behind-the-scenes look at an art world grappling with the ascent of the internet. Discover the key artists and trailblazers who defined networked culture from its beginnings in 1989, the year the World Wide Web emerged. From museum boardrooms, artist studios, and biennials around the globe and from cyberspace to the metaverse and beyond, this is a tale for the present and the future." -- Back cover of document
Whose Chinatown? : Examining Chinatown Gazes in Art, Archives, and Collections
"Whose Chinatown? Examining Chinatown Gazes in Art, Archives, and Collections, brings together an art history of Chinatowns and their communities by historical and contemporary Canadian artists such Emily Carr, Unity Bainbridge, Yucho Chow, Fred Herzog, Paul Wong, Mary Sui Yee Wong, Morris Lum, and aiya哎呀, among others. Drawing from private collections in Vancouver and across Canada, such as the Beatrice and Raymond Jai Collection, and the Chung Collection which holds more than 25000 rare items related to Chinese Canadian history assembled over 60 years and is now housed at UBC, the show will also be augmented with public archives and collections. Complementing the artworks, artefacts, and archival materials is a robust public programming. This exhibition aims to question how narratives are constructed around the idea of Chinatown and the colonial notions that underwrite some of these relations." -- Publisher's websit
Bar Delicious
"Why else would it be so omnipresent, constantly available to fulfill the incessant desire to consume Bar Delicious? Surely, they must live in a land of plenty, those who are given to live in a land with plenty of Bar Delicious. And yet we are at odds, the moment in which we expressed that desire evasive, our relationship to the massive processes that massively produce Bar Delicious unclear.
Bar Delicious is a meditation on consumption and desire in the context of the contemporary late capitalist and technological system. In a hybrid Futurist-Primitivist visual style, these panels advocate for the oppositional liberating power of desire." -- Publisher's websit

How much is enough? Kate O'Shea & The Just City Residency : Reflections on an embedded practice at the intersection of art and activism
"In the early days of the pandemic, Kate O' Shea established The Just City Collective. The group was formed initially as a reading group that met online weekly. It brought together community workers, artists, activists, and researchers from around the world exploring ideas and practices around spatial injustices in multiple cities. The reading group continued for 36 weeks. Different formations of this ecosystem became regular Yoga classes, dance classes, gatherings, the collaborative Halfway to Falling and inter-connected events Networks of Solidarity. Members of the collective continue to work collaboratively together." -- Publisher's websit
