It’s The Small Often Vague Things
BY JENNIFER KABAT
Printed in an accompaniment pamphlet for Kate Newby‘s exhibition Let The Other Thing In (June 27 – September 8, 2013) at The Fogo Island Gallery.
Kate Newby: Let the other thing in
Kate Newby — Let the other thing in is a catalogue printed to accompany the exhibition same name at Fogo Island Gallery (June 27 – September 8, 2013), copublished by Fogo Island Arts and Sternberg Press (Berlin). The full-colour publication features Kate Newby interviewed by Mami Kataoka, an essay by Jennifer Kabat, and a conversation between Newby, geologist Paul Dean and strategist Daniel Wong. The book also features Newby’s Skim Stone pictures, a series of photos by the artist of people skimming her ceramic stones into various bodies of water, where they presumably take on a different life within a difficult to fathom timeframe.
Zin Taylor: Lichen Voices / Stripes and Dots
Accompanying Zin Taylor’s exhibition at Fogo Island Gallery is the catalogue Zin Taylor: Lichen Voices / Stripes and Dots, copublished by Fogo Island Arts and Sternberg Press (Berlin). The publication features essays by Zoë Gray and Saelan Twerdy, and Zin Taylor in conversation with Patrick Staff and Robin Simpson. The book also presents the artist’s portfolio An Index Describing the Individual 19 Thoughts About Stripes and Dots Arranged on a Vitrine Made of Brass and Glass.
EDM House
Kevin Schmidt, EDM House (2013)
Commissioned by Fogo Island Arts (with the support of the Canada Council and the British Columbia Arts Council) EDM House is a 17-minute long video the artist shot in northern British Columbia last winter. The work continues Schmidt’s investigation into notions of the sublime, including the folly of its human approximation when contrasted with nature’s grandeur. A number of screenings of EDM House will be presented at the Fogo Island Cinema in summer 2014.
