About this issue

This issue of Rungh features writing which are a part of Rungh’s partnership with the Indigenous Curatorial Collective (ICCA) to showcase exhibitions and programming by Indigenous Artists. Many thanks to Justine Stilborn, ICCA, Digital Programs Manager and Communications Manager for co-steering the partnership.

Bee Bird reflects on Echoes of the Road Allowance by Arnolda Dufor Bowes. Claire Johnston travels to Venice to find links between Métis beadwork pieces Venetian conterie (seed beads) as a recipient of the Canada Council for the Arts Venice Fellowship. Dan Cardinal McCartney (published in English and French) engages with Lillian Bonin’s Cartographie de Mémoire. Dana Prieto enters Tania Willard’s portal, Declaration of the Understory, at The Bentway. Dana Claxton engages in a conversation about Rick and the Mohawks. 

In addition, Melody Ma provides an engaged reflection and reportage on the Driving in Palestine exhibit and Freedom School. Hanif Karim also touches upon Driving in Palestine (as it is being de-installed) when he reviews The Coin by Yamin Zaher.

At Rungh, we travel over waterways and under byways to engage with art and artists.
