In /Revisiting the Silence, /guest curator Peter Morin has selected 22 
powerful images of an 800 image body of work created by New York 
photographer, Adelaide de Menil during her journeys to see totem poles 
from 1966 to 1968.Morin will talk about his curatorial process, 
following indigenous practices to create this exhibition, and unfold his 
sense of the image telling a story of the land. The inspiration for this 
exhibition emerged from the collaborative publication, /Out of the 
Silence/, (published in 1971 and now out of print) featuring text by 
Bill Reid in concert with 66 of de Menil's documentary works.

*Peter Morin* is a Tahltan Nation artist and curator. He is a recent MFA 
graduate of UBC Okanagan. Peter's work looks deeply into de-colonization 
and healing through indigenous language learning and speaking. As a 
practicing curator, Peter explores issues of land, history, and 
indigenous ways of knowing. Peter is also a community educator, who 
draws on art to help First Nations youth reconnect with their culture 
and traditional practices. In 2010 Peter received the British Columbia 
Creative Achievement Award for First Nations' Art.

This public program is presented as part of the Gallery's featured 
exhibition. /Revisiting the Silence/ follows the tradition of travelling 
to see the totem poles along the Northwest Coast, as reflected in the 
powerful black and white photos taken by New York photographer, Adelaide 
de Menil in the 1960s.

*The exhibition has extended and will run through June 12, 2011.*

Bill Reid's /Black Eagle Canoe/ was delivered to VanDusen Botanical 
Gardens on May 26, 2011 and will sit on the south bank of Heron Lake 
amidst the stand of old-growth Douglas firs. The canoe is on a long-term 
loan from the Bill Reid Gallery of Northwest Coast Art.

The Canadian Museum of Civilization commissioned Bill Reid to create the 
/Black Eagle/ canoe, and later it was acquired by the Bill Reid Gallery 
of Northwest Coast Art, with financial support from Charles and Gail 
Pancerzewski.

The canoe's eagle design represents one of two main social entities of 
Haida culture, the other being raven.
