Thanks so much Gallery 1C03. I am pleased to have been invited to contribute a creative response to Moving Images, an exhibition which showed from January 12-February 18, 2017.

Moving Images, 2017. Curators Jennifer Gibson and Alison Gillmor. Essay by Alison Gillmor. Creative responses by Roewan Crowe and Jonathan Ball. 32 pages, illustrated.

Moving Images is an online pdf publication produced in affiliation with a Gallery 1C03 exhibition of 23 short films created by professional artists who have an association with the University of Winnipeg – current and former students and faculty. The exhibition featured five thematic shorts programs that changed on a weekly basis. Moving Images was accompanied by a smaller exhibition in the University Library’s Hamilton Galleria called “The Tender Fragments.” This show presented cinematic collages by Guy Maddin alongside his interactive on-line film project “Seances” which he created with Evan and Galen Johnson. The publication includes an introduction by Gibson, a curatorial essay by Gillmor and creative responses by writers and academics Roewan Crowe and Jonathan Ball. Crowe offers a rejoinder to “Moving Images” while Ball’s text replies to “The Tender Fragments.”
