{"product_id":"superscreen-copy-copy","title":"We live on the edge of disaster and imagine we are in a musical - Amalie Atkins","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis catalogue, the first to focus on Amalie Atkins' work, features more than fifty colour illustrations of her films, photographs, and installations  as well as insightful essays by the award-winning poet Sylvia Legris, Timothy Long (MacKenzie Art Gallery), and Grace Kehler (McMaster University). A special feature of the book is a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the artist’s studio-garage where Atkins’ visions come to life. Together they create a conversation around gift-giving, craft, DIY aesthetics, and the wish for places of belonging in a mobile world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet against the luminous landscapes of southern and central Saskatchewan, Atkins’ multi-layered narratives present bittersweet sagas of grief, joy, and transformation that linger in the memory like half-remembered fairy tales. Characters in the guise of wolves, bears, crows or other creatures populate her imaginative worlds and engage with human protagonists - two-headed sisters, braid harvesters, a troupe of roller-skating Valkyries - enacting scenarios that are both everyday and otherworldly.\u003cbr\u003e-MacKenzie Art Gallery Website\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAuthors\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTimothy Long\u003cbr\u003eSylvia Legris \u003cbr\u003eGrace Khler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003ePublishers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMacKenzie Art Gallery\u003cbr\u003eSouthern Alberta Art Gallery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003ePublication Date\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2015 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e10.5 x 9 inches\u003cbr\u003e80 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eBinding\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardcover, perfect-bound \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eISBN\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e978-1-896470-90-0\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MacKenzie Art Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47737893781674,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2426\/1089\/files\/Screenshot2025-12-08at2.17.56PM.png?v=1765221492","url":"https:\/\/shop.criticaldistance.ca\/products\/superscreen-copy-copy","provider":"CDCC Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
