Realization: we were way more compelled to want to read these books, when we discovered them as objects in a library display case, than we would seeing them as a list on a screen. The vibrancy of seeing art in person. Complex Times. Love the title.

Got a SODEC grant in. It will help cover the costs of hiring the great team I have lined up: senior programmer, senior integrator and project management/HR specialist. Fingers crossed..

Back to the abstract. My programmer asked me to define all the content blocks in the theme we are going to build for artists. I am working on an EXEL document that lists and defines them all. It is complex. We are working with WordPress Blocks to streamline the development, and I am new them. Feeling overwhelmed. But I need to get there for the SODEC grant deadline at the end of the month!

Medrie MacPhee is one of my longest standing clients. I had the pleasure of seeing her work for the first time in physical rather than digital form and it was amazing. Her and -on-paper have such a generous presence, and are full of esthetic and conceptual pleasures in their materials, forms, colors and textures.

I got my picture taken with one work on paper, "Brain at Work", 2023, that I loved from the first time I saw it.

Her show "Seeing is Knowing" continues until April 22, 2023 at Nicholas Metivier Gallery in Toronto. Check it out.

Getting back into the world of ideas in art after a hiatus. The politics of the 80s and early 90s resurging is a surprise. This citation from an interview with David Joselit by Shanti Escalante-De Mattei in the February 27, 2023 of ARTnews.com, resonated with my observations of the power dynamics in a morally-weighted art community back then, and apparently, again these days.

Well, thanks to some help from friends and from my course in starting a business, Artist Online Presence and Archiving has made it to the next level. I am at an information session this morning because I convinced a jury that my project is viable enough to go to the next level. I'll have a monthly stipend and a coach. I think... The info session will tell all.

Ok. Jumped through that hoop! Now I'll be presenting to a jury in early March to see if I get let into the Soutien aux travaileurs autonomes program. This is a slide from my 10 minute pitch. Anyone want to see the whole thing? I could record a video, en français bien sûr. Anyway, to be continued....
