More on Arthur Renwick: Riffs and Representations
Arthur Renwick Carla 2006 Courtesy Leo Kamen Gallery
In his winter 2009 feature article "…I Shed No Tears,” critic Daniel Baird delves deep into the blues riffs and representational concerns that drive the work of Toronto-based artist and musician Arthur Renwick. As Baird writes, “Renwick’s photographs do not distance themselves from native art and history; rather, they penetrate native people’s relationships to the ways in which they have been represented, and explore the uncomfortable relationship between native and non-native people.” Here, a bonus portfolio of six images from Renwick’s Mask portrait series is complemented by three tracks of Renwick’s blues-inflected guitar playing.
