Home (phew) to a misty Toronto, viewed here from the infamous Gardiner Expressway. The bottom image is of Fastwurms' welcoming big sculpture, "Woodpecker Column," at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.

The roadtrip continues with London Ontario, my home town. The top two rows represent typical local scenery. The bottom row represents the hot spots of my misspent youth: the patio (if you can call it that) at the Brunswick Tavern, the New Yorker rep cinema (no longer in operation), and Richmond St. (the main drag) where I used to buy "vintage" clothing and second-hand copies of Rolling Stone magazine.

On Wednesday evening I will be making a fool of myself in the Mark Lombardi show at the AGO, in company much better equipped than I to address Canadian art, politics and foreign affairs. I will, however, be armed with cue cards and small diagrams. If you are in Toronto come on by and heckle.

Global Theory Slam
Wednesday, October 20, 7 to 8:30 pm
Mark Lombardi’s extensive research into the relationships that define contemporary cultures, economies and geopolitics, is often dismissed as ‘conspiracy’. Join Toronto personalities in the exhibition space as they share their theories on the relationships that underpin Canadian art, politics and foreign affairs.

Here's the next batch from my SW Ontario tour...representing Windsor to Sarnia. The upper left is the monolithic GM evil genius lair on the Detroit side of the St. Clair River. Upper right is Windsor's casino sign that beams across the border/river, beckoning those yankee dollars. Stay tuned in the days ahead for more glam shots of Chemical Valley!

I am currently on a family-induced mini-road trip in South Western Ontario. These pictures represent the Toronto to Windsor leg of the tour. The bottom right image is of Detroit across the fields. This little corner of the province (very near where I grew up) is verdant and flat and oozes with that bleak sublime that characterizes Canadian dark humour. My next post will represent Windsor and Sarnia and the landscape between the two...tornado country.
