What Are Our Supports? Online Book launch

Please join us to celebrate the launch of ‘What Are Our Supports?,’ an anthology with over 20 local and international contributors. Co-edited by Joni Low and Jeff O’Brien, the book is based on a series of artist group’s projects in Vancouver’s Cathedral Square Park curated by Low in 2018. Featuring artist reflections, commissioned poems and essays, reprinted texts, and additional artworks, the anthology highlights the need to reinvigorate sustainable, alternative support networks for artists and communities during uncertain times, now intensified by our global pandemic and human-induced climate crisis. How do artists make perceptible the underrecognized and foundational supports that will continue to guide us through precarity? What can we learn through the practice of being human, and through the quests of art?

‘What Are Our Supports?’ is designed by Information Office, and co-published by Information Office, Doryphore Independent Curators Society, Richmond Art Gallery and Art Metropole.
