Book Synopsis Creative Subversions by : Margot Francis

Download or read book Creative Subversions written by Margot Francis and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this richly illustrated book, Margot Francis explores how whiteness and Indigeneity are articulated through four icons of Canadian identity -- the beaver, the railway, the wilderness of Banff National Park, and "Indianness" -- and the contradictory and contested meanings they evoke. These seemingly benign, even kitschy, images, she argues, are haunted by ideas about race, masculinity, and sexuality that circulated during the formative years of Anglo-Canadian nationhood. Juxtaposing these nostalgic images with the work of contemporary Canadian artists, she investigates how everyday objects can be re-imagined to challenge ideas about history, memory, and national identity.
