Ontario Craft '11
The Ontario Crafts Council is pleased to present Ontario Craft '11, our biennial juried exhibition of member work. Beginning in 1975, this event sought to highlight the best of OCC member work from across the province, and was always highly anticipated as an opportunity to celebrate, examine and assess the state of Ontario craft. It is the Ontario Craft Council's priority to continually advocate for, and support craft, to help build and engage a knowledgeable audience that appreciates the hand-made object in all of its different forms. We provide makers with inspiration, and most importantly we provide our members with the opportunity to profile their work. Congratulations to this year's Ontario Craft '11 award winners: Andrew Goss for Best in Show, Bruce Cochrane for the Award of Excellence, Aaron Oussoren for Honorable Mention, and Chiho Tokita for the 35th Anniversary Award. Juried by Don Stuart, Peter Fleming and Susan Card.

Crafting Identity
"By contrasting American experience with the Canadian context, which includes a unique Quebec identity and a Native dimension, Sandra Alfoldy argues that the development of organizations, advanced education for craftspeople, and exhibition and promotional opportunities have contributed to the distinct evolution of professional craft in Canada over the past forty years. Alfoldy focuses on 1964-74 and the debates over distinctions between professional, self-taught, and amateur craftspeople and between one-of-a-kind and traditional craft objects. She deals extensively with key people and events, including American philanthropist Aileen Osborn Webb and Canadian philanthropist Joan Chalmers, the foundation of the World Crafts Council (1964) and the Canadian Crafts Council (1974), the Canadian Fine Crafts exhibition at Expo 67, and the In Praise of Hands exhibition of 1974. Drawing upon a wealth of previously unexploited materials, this richly documented survey includes descriptions and illustrations of significant works and identifies the challenges that lie ahead for professional crafts in Canada."--Pub. desc
