Abstract (English)

Document in the form of a folded poster, to accompany an exhibition of 56 pieces (by nine artists) selected from Catherine Morrissey’s 1997 donation of more than 300 contemporary Canadian artworks to the London Regional Art and Historical Museums. The exhibition was organized in collaboration with Visual Arts students attending an Introduction to Museum Studies course at the University of Western Ontario. Mercer provides a brief introduction to the project, which is based on D. Phillip’s concepts of mapping and framing. The essay by Grant and Mercer outlines the significance of the exhibition’s title and curatorial themes. Includes brief statements by ten student curators. List of works.
