PaperWait Vol. 10 & 11

IN TOWN MEMBERS COME PICK UP YOUR ISSUE!!

This is another bumper edition covering the programming from 2007/8-2008/9, containing all the Critical Distances for those years.

The theme of the artist pages is DIY/DIT- showcasing an ultra mix of work from artists across Canada. Highlights include Suzie Smith’s record sleeves, collage by Irene Bindi and an extract from Lauren Hortie’s Lesbian Coloring Book series. There are also a coupla special essays- Andrew Kear (WAG Associate Curator Historical Canadian Art)  discusses the DIY roots of The Peg; and English DIY activist and author, Amy Spencer, gives an overview of DIY culture.

In keeping with the theme, the book itself contains some treats to get you DIY / DIT-ing. A stencil, sticker page, postcards and flip book fun will help keep you in mischief.

This PaperWait is a limited edition, so you’re only going to get your hands on one if you are a member. It’s a pretty special number, even if we do say so ourselves. Make sure your membership is up to date to avoid disappointment.
