Evergon
"Life inside the enchanted forest is a norm; it is only upon leaving the forest that you step into a memory of perversion. It is memory that makes the work both document and fiction..." From Evergon's early experiments with photographic and the reproductive processes, such as 1 Boy with Ingrown Tattoo, 1971, to his celebrated large-scale Polaroid works from the 1980s, such as The Caravaggio, 1984, and the series Manscapes, Truckstops and Lovers Lanes, 1989, and the ongoing The Ramboys, 1991, to his most recent arresting preoccupation, Housebound, Evergon: Lovers & Muses provides a long-awaited panoramic overview of the artist's entire body of work.

Scissors, Paper, Stone
Finalist: Raymond Klibansky Book Prize Humanities and Social Sciences Federation of Canada (2008) Making a connection between photography and memory is almost automatic. Should it be? In Scissors, Paper, Stone Martha Langford explores the nature of memory and art. She challenges the conventional emphasis on the camera as a tool of perception by arguing that photographic works are products of the mind - picturing memory is, first and foremost, the expression of a mental process. Langford organizes the book around the conceit of the child's game scissors, paper, stone, using it to ground her discussion of the tensions between remembering and forgetting, the intersection of memory and imagination, and the relationship between memory and history. Scissors, Paper, Stone explores the great variety of photographic art produced by Canadian artists as expressions of memory. Their work, including images by Carl Beam, Carole Condé and Karl Beveridge, Donigan Cumming, Stan Denniston, Robert Houle, Robert Minden, Michael Snow, Diana Thorneycroft, Jeff Wall, and Jin-me Yoon, is presented as part of a rich interdisciplinary study of contemporary photography and how it has shaped modern memory.
Genre, Trope, Gender
Northrop Frye embellishes the theory of genre in "Henry James and the Comedy of the Occult." In "The Power of Postmodern Irony," Linda Hutcheon furthers her reputation as a theorist of contemporary culture, and Shirley Neuman investigates gender in writing and reading in "Autobiography, Mothers' Bodies, the Reproduction of Mothering."
