Fierce: Women's Hot-Blooded Film/Video

Publication of a group exhibition adressing how Canadian-based women artists contribute to contemporary moving image culture, particularly in terms of producing the thinking image. Essays by leading artists and critics provide a rich account of video art and experimental film in the Canadian context and the impact of Canadian-based work within transnational spheres. Mobilizing narrative, documentary, autobiographical, video essay, video poem, animation, and experimental forms, the artists explore urgent concerns: public life and social justice, the global and the local, history and memory, the environment and species diversity, and war and peace. Participating artists: Maureen Bradley, Dana Claxton, Allyson Mitchell and b. h. Yael.
