- Link: R.M. Vaughn Does Hamilton
Seeing as I’m continuing to favour the studio at the expense of this blog for the time being, it’s gratifying to see a few of Hamilton’s stronger summer exhibitions being given a critical once-over by R.M. Vaughn of The Globe and Mail. And for my part, I don’t even want to necessarily throttle him for […]
- Become a Friend of McMaster Art History
Though I’ve been dialling back the blogging this month to better focus on my own studio work for a change, I’m happy enough to crawl out of my ink-splattered hibernation for a good cause, such as that brought to my attention by the inimitable Dr. Alison McQueen, Associate Professor of Art History at McMaster University, […]
