Explore Desire Change: Contemporary Feminist Art in Canada, the first book about feminist visual art in Canada, co-published by MAWA and McGill-Queen’s University Press, at a monthly reading group. Each session, participants delve into a chapter with facilitator, Helga Jakobson.
In advance of the September meeting, read Chapter 8, “All That Is Canadian: Identity and Belonging in the Video and Performance Artwork of Camille Turner.”
Copies of the book are available at MAWA for $45, or through the Winnipeg Public Library.
