Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Stunning contemporary houses illuminate the enduring and evolving influence of the West Coast Modern architectural style in B.C.Decades after gaining international recognition through the work of practitioners such as Arthur Erickson, Ron Thom, and Barry Downs, the West Coast Modern style remains widely celebrated and highly influential for residential architects in British Columbia and beyond, even as its expressions evolve and adapt to contemporary contexts. What are the contours of its legacy today?and has a new Cascadia regional style emerged?To explore these questions, Clinton Cuddington, co-principal of Measured Architecture, invited dozens of B.C.-based architects to share residential projects that best exemplified their design process. Their responses range from palatial mountain chalets to cabins sitting lightly in the forest to oceanfront retreats to sensitive urban renovations. Each house is presented through full-colour photos by professional photographers including Andrew Latreille and Ema Peter, and accompanied by short essays by curator and critic Michael Prokopow that draw on visits to each house and interviews with the architects to elucidate the many aesthetic and programmatic accomplishments on display. The houses are grouped by typology within Mountain, Forest, Shore, and City sections, and followed by profiles of each firm with photos of additional work.As Prokopow details in an incisive essay, each house is necessarily also a response to the conditions of its creation, notably its site?locations include the Sea-to-Sky Region, Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, Southern Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands, and the West Kootenays?as well as its social and cultural context, and so is revealing of modern ideas about home and family, leisure and vocation, ecological concerns and communion with nature on Canada?s West Coast.With thoughtful, deeply informed prose and over 300 considered photos, Reside is an absorbing and inspiring tour of some of the most exceptional houses in the country, and a portrait of how the unique character of the region is expressed in built form.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. An eclectically curated collection reveals a kaleidoscopic portrait of the many and diverse talents working in and around BC's art scene over the past forty years.As a musician, performer, activist, collector, John David Lawrence has long held an important, if underrecognized, position in Vancouver's creative community. After settling in the city in the mid-1980s he participated in and advocated for performance spaces and artist-run centres, building deep roots in the community, and since 2000 he has been the proprietor of DODA ANTIQUES. Over several decades, Lawrence amassed an idiosyncratic personal collection that includes ceramics, Indigenous art, jewelry, folk art, photography, and plant life. Through the stories of some of these pieces and of Lawrence himself, as well as extensive new photography of his holdings, The Place of Objects illuminates the rich cultural production that is often overlooked by Vancouver's established artistic community.Released to coincide with a Vancouver Art Gallery exhibition of 300 ceramic works from Lawrence's collection, The Place of Objects opens with an engrossing conversation between scholar Michael Prokopow and Lawrence that uses specific objects and the diverse areas of his collections to reveal Lawrence's enigmatic biography and ponder the broader cultural obsession with things. The second half of the book features texts by artists, scholars, friends, and curators who highlight objects of art with historical, cultural, or personal significance. The publication also includes a visual index-a two-dimensional genogram of the objects in his collection-to map the tentacular threads that have informed Lawrence's collecting practices over the decades.Contributors:Glenn Alteen, Grant Arnold, Daina Augaitis, Jonathon Bancroft-Snell, Nicholas R.

Hardback. Zustand: New. This is the first comprehensive overview of the career to date of British artist Hurvin Anderson (b.1965). Anderson is known for painting loosely rendered 'observations' of scenes and spaces loaded with personal or communal meaning.Anderson's painting style is notable for the ease with which he slips between figuration and abstraction, playing with the tropes of earlier landscape traditions and 20th-century abstraction. His paintings of barbershop interiors, country tennis clubs and tropical roadsides teem with rich brushwork and multitudes of decorative patterns or architectural features, at once obscuring and adding to underlying ruminations on identity and place.Drawing on interviews with the artist, Michael J. Prokopow offers a critical assessment of Hurvin Anderson's painting practice to date that will be enlightening for all students, dealers and collectors of contemporary painting.…
