The markers present two kinds of text superimposed over black &amp; white photographic images. Each marker includes an excerpt from one of the Mount's official publications—either an early Academy prospectus or the current University calendar (the General Regulations in the title), intersecting with a quote (the Memories) from a conversation I had with a present-day student at the University or one of the elderly Sisters of Charity who were once students or teachers at the Academy.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-mentionslegalesillust"> <div class="field-label">Mention(s) légale(s) des illustrations:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-above"> Copyright détenu par des photographes et/ou des musées dont la permission/reproduction n’a pas été obtenue </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-crdit-photographique"> <div class="field-label">Photo credits:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-above"> © Marlene Creates </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-dimension-de-loeuvre"><legend>Dimensions</legend><div class="field field-type-number-float field-field-haut field-inline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-inline"> <div class="field-label field-label-inline-first"> Height:&nbsp;</div> 0.56m </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-number-float field-field-largeur field-inline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-inline"> <div class="field-label field-label-inline-first"> Width:&nbsp;</div> 0.74m </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-autres-informations"><legend>Other information</legend><div class="field field-type-text field-field-notes"> <div class="field-label">Note(s):&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-above"> <p style="text-align: justify;">"I took the photographs of the locations (the Places) referred to in their anecdotes during 1997-1998. The markers are installed in relation to these same locations (for example: beside a parking lot—formerly the site of the rhubarb patch; at the entrance to the campus near the train tracks along the shore—the former sea-bathing spot, etc.) In this way, the institutional voice intersects with the first-person memories, and both of these intersect with images of the locations—which, of course, will continue to change and offer a visual comparison to what is (and will be) there.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Marlene Creates's Web site (2008) Marlene Creates. <br /><a href="http://www.marlenecreates.ca/works/1998intersections.html">&lt;http://www.marlenecreates.ca/works/1998intersections.html&gt;</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-link field-field-biar field-inline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-inline"> <div class="field-label field-label-inline-first"> Artist&#039;s biography:&nbsp;</div> <a href="http://www.marlenecreates.ca/" target="user">marlene creates</a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-propitaires field-inline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-inline"> <div class="field-label field-label-inline-first"> Owner(s):&nbsp;</div> Mount Saint Vincent University Art Gallery, Halifax </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-source field-inline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-inline"> <div class="field-label field-label-inline-first"> Source:&nbsp;</div> marlene.creates@nf.sympatico.ca </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-nodereference field-field-biblio"> <div class="field-label">Document(s):&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-above"> <a href="/en/biblio/1112">Intersections : Places, General Regulations, and Memories</a> </div> <div class="field-item even label-above"> <a href="/en/biblio/1113">Intersections: Places, General Regulations, and Memories, Mount Saint Vincent, Halifax 1998</a> </div> <div class="field-item odd label-above"> <a href="/en/biblio/1114">MSVUArt: Exhibitions- Intersections</a> </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> http://plepuc.org/en/artwork/intersections-places-general-regulations-and-memories#comments Installation and intervention Permanent Exterior Park, square and garden Contest Linear Mount Saint Vincent University’s 125th annniversary Aluminum 44.679592 -63.651874 Sun, 21 Dec 2008 19:40:00 +0000 Marie-Claude Langevin 1115 at http://plepuc.org
