| Exhibit | Mark Laver: Shining Examples | 2012-03-22 | 10:00:00 |
| Description
|
Dark, wet, Vancouver Island nights receive a painterly treatment in Mark Laver’s intimate Night Paintings and ambitious Rural Disasters. Be it urban parks after midnight, trailer park fires, nocturnal car crashes or rural highways, the exhibit reveals a battle between the psychological and narrative power of nocturnal imagery and the allure of oil paint itself. Smeared, swirled, glazed and dripped, the luscious materiality of paint is as much the subject of these paintings as the landscape Laver calls home.

| Exhibit | Divergence: Insights into Studio Practices | 2012-03-22 | 10:00:00 |
| Description
|
From the studios of 19 University of Victoria art education instructors in the Faculty of Education comes a rich and diverse exhibition of images and objects that range through traditional and newer media. Working independently in their studios, these artist/educators collaborate and exchange ideas on a daily basis while working with students, engaging them in creative problem solving, and assisting in the preparation of work for exhibitions.
What they hold in common is a commitment to both the classroom and the studio as sites of research and dissemination. Teaching informs studio practice and studio informs teaching practice in the daily ebb and flow of professional life. This exhibition invites visitors to experience that dynamic interaction.

| Exhibit | The Silent Observer | 2012-03-22 | 07:30:00 |
| Description
|
He is known as the “father of Canadian photojournalism,” quietly clicking with the "eye of an artist, the concentration of a surgeon, and the reflexes of a cat." From Trudeau’s mischievous slide down the banister on Parliament Hill, to Ben Johnson’s momentary thrill of triumph at winning the 100 meter dash, to the accusing glance of a child of the Chernobyl disaster, Ted Grant has created thousands of iconic images over the past six decades, distilling our world into single, expanding moments.
The Silent Observer features Grant's latest work, a continued exploration of healers, this time from the point of view of medical interns. Grant captures these young men and women in classrooms, operating rooms and rural clinics, from moments of intense concentration to playful laughter, as they journey from student to physician.
Ted Grant is the only photographer to hold both Gold and Silver medals for Photographic Excellence from the National Film Board of Canada. He has published eight books, lectured at prestigious universities and taught courses for the School of Journalism at Carleton University. He has acted as Photographic Coordinator for the Pan American and Commonwealth Games, and for the World Athletic Championships in Edmonton. In 2008, he was presented an Honorary Doctorate of Laws Degree from the University of Victoria.

| Film | Michael Fassbender in "Shame" | 2012-03-22 | 19:10:00 |
| Description
|
Director: Steve McQueen UK, 2011, 102 minutes; 18A
Cast: Michael Fassbender, Carey Mulligan
“MESMERIZING!” –Variety
“A VISUAL AND SONIC SYMPHONY.” –Salon
Driven by a brilliant, ferocious performance by Michael Fassbender, Shame is a real walk on the wild side, a scorching look at a case of sexual addiction. Steve McQueen’s second feature, after his exceptional debut with Hunger, may ultimately prove too psychologically pat, but its dramatic and stylistic prowess provides a cinematic jolt. This sexually raw film will stir considerable excitement. McQueen wastes no time defining what drives Brandon (Fassbender), a 30ish New Yorker. With music employed to grandiose, sensual effect, he compulsively masturbates, eyes prey in the subway and manages to nail the sexy girl his boss had been fancying. Returning to his apartment, he is dismayed to find a wreck of a young woman in his bathroom. Sissy (Carey Mulligan) evidently wouldn’t be here if she had anywhere else to go. But she’s his sister…Fassbender is incredible, capping a year which has also done exceptional work in A Dangerous Method.. –The Hollywood Reporter

| Lecture/Seminar | Exploring the social as if it mattered: what it means to me to be a feminist scholar in the 21st century | 2012-03-22 | 19:00:00 |
| Description
|
Professor Dorothy E. Smith Adjunct Professor of Dept. of Sociology, UVic. Professor Emeritus, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education/University of Toronto Dorothy Smith has made some of the most important contributions to sociology. Her writings on feminism, organizations, education, and Marx have been recognized by the American Sociological Association (Career of Distinguished Scholarship Award 1999), the Canadian Sociological Association (Outstanding Contribution Award 1990), and by the universities where she spent much of her career: the University of British Columbia and the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. Since 1994 when she became adjunct professor in sociology here at UVic, Dorothy has made countless contributions to training and learning. She has enriched the department with her novel insights and helped to create yet another generation of critical scholars in Canada. Dorothy's tireless efforts to teach about institutional ethnography and feminist epistemologies have benefited students in our department and across the university. Indeed, students from across Canada come to attend Dorothy's seminars and teaching sessions. She has achieved something that very few sociologists ever do - she has changed the discipline while personally touching so many of us with her generosity and kindness. Dorothy has enriched our lives and our work.
