AGO Head Discusses Art's Community Developments
As part of its silver-anniversary celebrations, Canadian Art interviewed a variety of artists, curators and gallerists about their thoughts on the magazine and the national art scene it represents. These videos have been released online daily during Gallery Hop week, September 21 to 25, 2009.
In the final instalment of our video series, Art Gallery of Ontario director Matthew Teitelbaum considers how the history of Canadian Art has chronicled the changes in the country’s art field to become as internationally focused as it is today. He discusses how the developments of communities, from the local to the regional to the national and abroad, have influenced his own career, and how these communities are reflected in the pages of Canadian Art.
