Memories, beyond the Kodak moment May 19, 2009
The upshot is an image that sits, conceptually, in a dialectical zone between news photography and history painting. Followers of Vancouver photography will find some kinships here to the work of other West Coast artists: to Jeff Wall's large-format, highly constructed dramatic images, and also to the reportage of Roy Arden, which in the past has also paid homage to historical incidents of civil unrest in British Columbia history.

Landscape painting shaped the direction of art for a century, then all but vanished. What happened? Mar 1, 2009
In the Netherlands and England, landscape struggled for pride of place alongside portraiture, with its royal subjects and opulent props; in Paris, which was already the center of the art world in the 19th century, it was history painting - with its imposing scale, somber palette, and literary themes - that lorded over the annual Salon. But Turner, unfazed by landscape's status, set out at a young age to transform the genre. (Boston Globe)
