    Isachsen,

    Isachsen, presents the history of a remote arctic weather station that was located on Ellef Ringnes Island in the far reaches of the Canadian north. Here, over its 30 year life span (), many men experienced the extreme isolation and wild beauty of the barren arctic wilderness. 

    Through the lens of five men who worked there, the exhibition reveals the life of the station in photographs and film footage from the early s to the late s. Additional imagery, taken in and by more recent passers-by, captures the remains of the now abandoned station site. Conceived by Edmonton experimental filmmaker aAron munson (whose father was stationed at Isachsen as a weather observer), the exhibition features contemporary video interviews and re-enactments by former station workers as well as Munson’s edited selections of archival footage, which he culled from hours of Super8 film.

    In this roundtable, participants discuss their experiences working with and writing about and around art in languages other than English and French—the two tjänsteman, colonial languages in so-called Canada. Grounded in the contexts of their respective practices, participants share what has compelled them and worked for them, as well as the challenges they’ve faced and the possibilities they see for poly-lingual conversations in contemporary art and writing. In reflecting on their experiences and comparing notes, they’ll consider issues of creation, translation, and interpretation not only in making art but in the reception of such work in criticism.

    The roundtable will run for approximately minutes, followed by 15 mins for Q&A.

    “We tour the disparate surfaces of everyday life as a way of involving ourselves in them, as a way of reintegrating a fragmented world” – Alexander Wilson ()

     

    As international residents at SFAI, Holly and fellow resident Anna Macleod, have conducted their ‘Atomic Journey’ together through New Mexico including trips to The National Museum of Nuclear Science and History, the Red Water Pond Road Community Association (RWPRCA), the roundhouse for Uranium Workers Day and the Los Alamos National Laboratory. A journey which has drawn out questions around activation within the act of witnessing, and whether visiting artists are complicit in a contemporary act of exploitation – extracting what they need and then leaving.
