Morris Lum’s forthcoming “Chinatowns” book, which I helped him to photo edit and sequence, is on today’s @cnn.com style page! The book is out October 28 with a book launch planned in Montreal for December 11. @morrislum.bsky.social www.cnn.com/2025/10/01/s...

Over the last five (eight? Ten?) years I’ve realized the profound responsibility and pleasure it is to be a part of an artist’s practice via friendship and to truly understand their work as it develops. 🙏 to count @narrowrooms.bsky.social as one of my people as I watched her present her work today

Montreal is really showing off in this late summer segue into fall

Seriously! How the hell is that allowed? Full solidarity with the flight attendants. Shame on you AC.

Just waiting for @aircanada.bsky.social to pre-emptively cancel our flight home from visiting family in Vancouver rather than returning to the bargaining table with @cupescfp.bsky.social flight attendants. Solidarity with the workers.

From yesterday’s lovely and generous studio visit with Emma Nishimura. Furoshiki paper printed with photogravures of her family photographs of ancestors and kin incarcerated during Japanese internment in Canada.

The first of three conversations as part of Kate Wong’s SITE project at Mercer Union unfolded today, asking why Toronto’s art institutions are in crisis and what can be learnt from their symptoms.

I bring a text about parenting, technology & creativity to read aloud each year at MOTHRA: an artist parent residency on Toronto island. Today, we read the introduction to @hzeavin.bsky.social’s “Mother Media” and talked about extended kinship, pathologizing mothering and artists as media

“All of my favourite artists are people who think about everything — there's no aspect of expression and the way that it could be received that isn't considered. jes was one of those 'everything' artists.” 🙏 to Chris Hampton for commissioning this text about jes sachse: www.cbc.ca/arts/remembe...

Friend and collaborator Gabrielle Moser reflects on the late Toronto artist who approached life and work with 'radical freedom.' They died earlier this month at the age of 40.

Is there an online support group for disappointed Parisians who have moved to any other city in the world?

Gabby Moser @gabbymoser.bsky.social · 16/05/2025

I regularly teach a graduate seminar called Un-Learning the Archive at York University in the faculty of education, and every year I assign Anjali Arondekar's "For the Record" in a week about the body and the archive. Until this year, her work seemed to fly under the radar.

How are we still in a place where a child-focused supposedly trauma informed health service will ask for a mom and dad’s name — rather than the names of the parents — on their intake form? Truly astonishing

Against all odds, or maybe because I arrived here in 2006 at the height of Torontopia, I still love this city best of all

And I regret not taking a selfie of Kirsty Robertson and I in our (accidentally) matching Horses coats on Valentine’s Day. Next time.

Had a hellish 24 hours escaping New York before the snowstorm hit Toronto, which meant I missed the last day of #caa113 but I had such a good time seeing friends and colleagues, new and old, and saw nothing but excellent, interesting papers.

And if you ever encounter a completely enticing and bewildering textile based work laid horizontally on the gallery floor accompanied by a cheesy photo of a mountain sunset and wonder what new artist made this work the answer is always Mike Kelley, back in 1991

The collections based show on movement in sculpture is also full of pleasant surprises by Abraham Cruzvillegas, Mona Hatoum, David Hammonds and Xaviera Simmons

Took a much needed break to see the Orphism and sculpture shows at the Guggenheim. Picabia, Delaunays, Duchamp never get old
