st living artists angela grossmans takao tanabes john hartmans and many more not every gallery takes the same sort of approach that the mackenzie does of course the national art gallery the museum of fine arts in montreal and the art gallery of ontario are notable exceptions among our largest public galleries as is the beaverbrook in fredericton which boasts on its website that its permanent collection s core has remained on view for most of the gallery s 60 plus year history the glenbow in calgary promises to again be an exception when it reopens in 2027 and several others are at least partial exceptions the art gallery of victoria for example displays works from its permanent collection in at least two of the gallery s seven exhibition spaces but take a look online at what s on at the main public galleries in st john s halifax trois rivières kingston peterborough guelph london windsor thunder bay winnipeg regina saskatoon edmonton kamloops kelowna vancouver nanaimo many of these galleries hold excellent permanent collections few if any make available much space to show the works in those permanent collections to the public why not gallery curators have a ready answer they just don t have enough space and it is indeed true that many galleries across canada are short both of exhibition space and of storage space in some cases critically so but the assumption seems always to be that new temporary exhibitions must take priority is there any good reason for that assumption why not look at things the other way round if you have a truly outstanding permanent collection why not give priority to that however large or small your available exhibition space may be why not devote at least one third of that available space to a permanent display of certain of the most important works from your permanent collection another third might be devoted to rotating displays of other works in the permanent collection that still leaves a third for temporary exhibitions in the united states the majority of public galleries seem to devote over 70 of their exhibition space to works from their permanent collection in cleveland and portland it s 90 in minneapolis it s 93 in winnipeg on the other hand it s estimated to be less than 60 in quebec city less than 50 in victoria it s 45 in vancouver it s often less than 10 in peterborough lethbridge nanaimo and various other canadian cities it s often 0 in closing i d like to return to the t c douglas building in regina in which the mackenzie gallery is housed arguably the most interesting pieces of art on display in the entire building are miki mappin s nine wonderfully evocative sculptures of human figures they re on permanent display positioned on benches in the building s atrium which you pass through before you enter the gallery and again when you leave reminiscent of the white plaster sculptures of george segal these figures are made of dark concrete they have apparently been popular among visitors to the building ever since they were installed in 1982 there s nothing there to identify the sculptor but an extraordinarily informative attendant at the information desk provided me with a good deal of background information including a photocopied article from the 18 november 1982 issue of western people about the installation of the sculptures thanks so much for the information i said to her before i left these are really quite extraordinary better perhaps than anything else on display in the gallery oh but these aren t the gallery s sculptures she said they were commissioned by the ministry of health she pointed to the other side of the atrium the health ministry occupies that half of the building nothing to do with the mackenzie gallery a nicely produced 2013 book edited by timothy long stephen king the vaults art from the mackenzie art gallery and the university of regina collections provides a wealth of information on what s hidden from view at the mackenzie also on display in victoria at the moment is an exhibition advertised in the 14 march issue of the globe and mail with a detail from mary pratt s cut cake historic and post war canadian art but that s an exhibition at the madrona gallery an outstanding commercial gallery the works are all for sale it s an interesting commentary on the current art world in this part of british columbia that when it comes to nineteenth and twentieth century canadian painting there are often far more important works to be seen at commercial galleries and auction houses heffel fine art in vancouver as well as madrona than there is at any of the public galleries one of the many ironies of the current art world is that many works of art that have been donated to public galleries in the expectation that they will be thereby be enjoyed by more people than if the works were sold off at auction end up being seen by no one at all other than the gallery staff a growing number of galleries are nowadays attempting to address their space issues by adopting a visible storage approach for much of their permanent collection and a growing number too are digitizing much or all of their permanent collection these are both real steps forward but they are no substitute for having a significant part of one s permanent collection displayed in proper exhibition galleries having too few works from their permanent collection permanently on display is a failing of more than a few public galleries when space is allocated to works from the permanent collection it s often only on a temporary basis that s fine for most works in most permanent collections but truly iconic works should always be on display just as the glenbow used to always have on display frances anne hopkins s canoes in fog lake

exhibitions sunday april 26 2026 genocidal intent and the quiet deaths of millions donald trump s early april statements of genocidal intent in the war he has waged against iran have rightly received a great deal of attention though no major news outlets i m aware of have dared to describe them as genocidal on april 1 trump made the following statement we are going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks we are going to bring them back to the stone ages where they belong that was not an offhand remark made in haste through a tweet on truth social the words were part of a prime time address to the nation and are recorded in the official white house transcript a few days later on april 7 he threatened similar action unless iran reopened the strait of hormuz by midnight that night he declared a whole civilization will die tonight never to be brought back again is it going too far to describe such words as statements of genocidal intent a good many respected authorities have judged that it is not among them mathias risse of harvard university s center for human rights trump s statement risse has written is the clearest case of declared genocidal intent in modern international criminal law it s worth comparing trump s words with the words that have been used by others inciting genocide if international finance jewry inside and outside europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war the result will be not the bolshevization of the earth and thereby the victory of jewry but the annihilation of the jewish race in europe hitler declared on 30 january 1939 all tutsis should be erased from human memory and wiped from the surface of the earth blared radio broadcasts in rwanda in 1993 the similarities are all too clear no one suggests that trump and hegseth will kill as many in iran as the 800 000 who were killed in the rwanda genocide or the 6 000 000 who were killed in europe in the holocaust trump s other actions though may result in the quiet deaths of many more the most heinous action of the trump administration among seemingly endless heinous actions may may be the decision early on to quickly and brutally shut down america s foreign aid programs one report from the harvard school of public health estimates that the usaid shutdown has already led to hundreds of thousands of deaths https hsph harvard edu news usaid shutdown has led to hundreds of thousands of deaths another from an equally reputable source the lancet estimates that the shutdown may well result in 14 000 000 deaths by 2030 https www bbc com news articles cx2jjpm7zv8o quiet deaths from starvation or from lack of essential medicines may not have the worldwide emotional impact that deaths associated with the word genocide always seem to carry but the millions of people dying probably won t care what words are used to describe the horror these of course are not deaths in places that the likes of trump have been in the habit of recognizing as civilizations the great civilizations of benin or of the mali empire or of great zimbabwe are ones that trump and the world of maga seem entirely unaware of their traditions are the traditions of what trump in one of the most horrific statements of his first administration called shithole countries who really cares if people in those sorts of places die in record numbers if we do care we should do more than care we should press rich world governments not to follow trump in cutting foreign aid and we should give as generously as we can to every aid agency that is working to save the people that the trump administration is happy to let die posted by don lepan at 9 26 pm no comments iran 1953 eisenhower churchill mosaddegh in discussing the history of us iran relations in the context of the current war many media accounts go back as far as the upheavals of 1979 the overthrowing of the shah the installation of an islamist regime and the american embassy hostage crisis few sad to say go back as far as upheavals of 1952 53 the nationalization of the oil industry by iran s democratically elected government led by mohammad mosaddegh the attempts by winston churchill s british government to persuade the us to help them overthrow that government and the overthrow itself in the october 9 1953 entry in his diary american president dwight eisenhower reflected on the nature of what his government together with churchill s government had done the things we did were covert if knowledge of them became public we would not only be embarrassed in that region but our chances of doing anything of like nature in the future would almost completely disappear knowledge of what they had done did eventually become public and historians are nowadays all in agreement as to the basic facts the summary in brittanica says it well enough in 1951 the iranian parliament led by mosaddegh s nationalist and democratically elected government voted to nationalize the country s oil industry seeing its interests thus threatened the uk embarked on a secret campaign to weaken and destabilize mosaddegh at first the british government tried to convince the shah to remove mosaddegh from office by engineering a parliamentary decree a ploy that both failed and enhanced mosaddegh s reputation while diminishing the shah s when the push to remove mosaddegh evolved into the idea of a coup to overthrow the government britain reluctant to shoulder the responsibility alone persuaded the u s to join forces by playing on cold war fears that mosaddegh an avowed anticommunist was aligning himself with tudeh the iranian communist party the united states took the leading role in a covert operation called operation ajax whereby cia funded agents were used to foment unrest inside iran by way of the harassment of religious and political leaders and a media disinformation campaign these efforts formally approved by president dwight d eisenhower came to a head in august 1953 when mosaddegh and his government were overthrown and mohammad reza a pro western monarch was returned to power it s no wonder that resentment of america runs deep in iran an interesting footnote to all this is how churchill has almost entirely escaped blame for his part in the coup notice in the brittanica summary that eisenhower is named but churchill isn t that omission is entirely typical of most accounts of the coup the american presidents who appear in the standard narrative truman and then eisenhower are identified by name but the british prime minister is not in this as in a number of other respects notably the bengal famine of 1943 in which churchill withheld relief supplies in a famine that killed millions churchill remains history s teflon leader remembered above all for the undeniable greatness of his leadership in 1940 while somehow sloughing off any close association with less flattering episodes posted by don lepan at 9 15 pm no comments saturday april 11 2026 the woman problem at the london review of books i sent this letter to the london review of books march 22 i had assumed it wouldn t be published since the lrb did publish a couple of other letters on seamus perry s 19 february article in their 19 march issue interestingly those letters continue the pattern of perry s own piece together they mention or reference eleven male writers and no women the lrb remains in many ways a wonderful publication but when it comes to a fair representation of women it sometimes feels fifty years behind the times or indeed a hundred years but i was happy to be surprised when they did in fact pubish a lightly edited version of the letter below in the 23 april issue they cut my rather too snarky last sentence just as well it is an extraordinary irony that in an article on modern ideas of pluralism and diversity and on the quality of sheer plenitude in modern poetry lrb 19 february seamus perry devotes twenty three of his twenty four paragraphs entirely to the writings of white males all of them british or american or in the case of auden and gunn a bit of both the exception is the fifteenth of the twenty four which is also mostly devoted to the writings of british and american white males robert browning chief among them but which includes seven words quoted from elizabeth bishop and six words quoted from dorothy parker one wishes that perry had either given a much narrower title to the piece or better still taken the time to dip into the work of a much wider range of modern poets from rossetti s goblin market all the way to brooks s the lovers of the poor and beyond there s a wondrous range of sheer plenitude to be discovered much of it of high quality and much of it of real interest possibly even to white male writers at balliol an extended quote from chas and dave s 1982 song that s what i like is offered by one letter writer as a fine example of verse that evokes the...
