SUMMARY:The Masses and the Classes in Calgary: Labour\, Lougheed\, and Electoral Politics in Calgary
DESCRIPTION:Coinciding with Senator Lougheed’s time in the federal cabinet were some of the largest strikes in Canadian history\, including major ones in Calgary. These signs of class division had political ramifications as both labour and conservative forces mobilized to control political representation in the city at all levels of government. This talk will explore the class dimension of electoral politics in Calgary\, beginning with the federal election of 1911 — when Calgary bucked the trend of the west and voted against candidates supporting reciprocity — through to Alberta’s first recall election in 1926 over the issue of the public provision of textbooks in Calgary schools.

SUMMARY:Curtis Talwst Santiago: worlds\, worlds\, worlds
DESCRIPTION:worlds\, worlds\, worlds explores how stories are held and carried across the vestiges of history and memory. Rooted in a form of world-building where inherited imagination meets critical fabulation¹\, the exhibition celebrates polyphonic identities that negotiate different geographies across time\, weaving the material\, the fragmentary\, and the ever-evolving within storytelling. \nCentral to the Contemporary Calgary presentation is a focused survey of Santiago’s dioramas. Begun in 2008 and collectively known as the Infinity Series\, these intimate works move fluidly between personal memories of Caribbean community life: basement dance parties\, the quintessential barbershop\, figures dreaming in the grass\, and broader collective histories such as migration crises and the rise of territorialism in its many forms. These scenes are portrayed as something precious and deliberately sheltered\, worlds that can be held in the palm of a hand\, inviting careful observation of details often overlooked.
