	Adieu to Two Pioneers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Wieland - painter, sculptor, quilt-maker and film-maker - was the first female artist to shake up the swaggering boys' club of the Toronto art scene in the late l950s, a joyful provocateur who drew a lyrical arc between feminism and the feminine.
		Wieland died on June 27 at age 66, a victim of Alzheimer's disease.
		Ahead of her time and underappreciated, Wieland was nevertheless honored with major shows at the National Gallery of Canada and the Art Gallery of Ontario; in fact, she became the first living Canadian female artist to be granted a retrospective by the AGO.

		Wieland and Markle were among the most questing and provocative artists of the Toronto art scene from the late 1950s through the 1980s.
		Wieland's nudes are but part of her considerable oeuvre (the show omitted the ecologically and politically driven quilts, for instance, and the "disaster" series paintings).
		Wieland gloried in being a woman and wanted to make "Housewife art, and wife art and women's art." She was a forthright feminist among a mostly male crowd and fought hard for recognition of a female artist's specific view of sexuality.

	Woodland Pattern > Experimental Film and Video

	TAKE ONE: Appreciation of the films of Joyce Wieland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Wieland was a major figure in the avant-garde film scene of the 1960s and '70s and, together with Michael Snow, was one of the founders of Canadian experimental cinema.
		Joyce Wieland produced many of her films during the early 1960s in New York City where she had moved with her husband, Snow.
		Wieland believed she was excluded from screenings and discussions and by the time she made her first feature-length experimental film, Reason Over Passion, in 1969, she "was made to feel in no uncertain terms by a few male filmmakers that I had overstepped my place, that in New York, my place was making little films."(ibid)

		Wieland danced with Maurice Bejart's company as a principal dancer and studied at Hamburg under John Neuemeier.
		Wieland has his dancers disengage psychologically, and as a result, they seem to be passengers in their own wild bodies.
		Wieland managed to keep things interesting despite the slow pace and contained vocabulary, which contrasted markedly with the rest of the program, and I relished the chance to watch Paradigm's many gifts.

	Filmwaves-Women in film-The life and work of Joyce Wieland
		Joyce Wieland is best known for her filmmaking in New York in the 60s, but before arriving there from Toronto in 1963, she was already well known as a painter.
		Some commentators point to the fact that Joyce was orphaned aged just nine as an explanation for her continuous investigation of her personal memories and experiences in her work.
		Wieland's father was a British Music Hall performer who deserted his first wife and children when he met a sixteen year old runaway girl in London and immediately became besotted with her.

		Joyce Wieland's rarely screened 1969 masterpiece is a neglected landmark of avant-garde film.
		The sameness of a road trip--the way all windshield views begin to look alike--is modified by a feeling of openness, as Wieland joins images not to fuse two parts of the land but to suggest the unseen spaces between them.
		Superimposed on the landscapes are anagrams of the phrase "la raison avant la passion," taken from a speech by Canada's former prime minister Pierre Trudeau.

		Joyce Wieland triumphed over what she called “obscene poverty” to achieve international celebrity as a painter, collagist, quiltmaker, and filmmaker, celebrated as Canada’s most important woman artist next to Emily Carr.
		To make her distinctive, highly personal art, Wieland uses toys, paper cut-outs, wood, glass, and pieces of her panties and dresses just as boldly and felicitously as she uses oils, watercolours, and pencils.
		Joyce Wieland achieved her deserved acclaim through unstinting courage, vivacity, and her off-the-wall humour.

		"Joyce Wieland's films are among the most endearing ever seen, making her point and sealing the issue in a womanly way without any concern for ragged edges.
		With its many eccentricities, it is a glyph of her artistic personality; a lyric vision tempered by an aggressive form and a visionary patriotism mixed with ironic self parody.
		Joyce Wieland concentrates on the speaker's voice, she presents Pierre Valliers' voice in close-up, so that nothing is hidden.

	Canadian Heritage Film Festival Screening - The Far Shore, Joyce Wieland, 1975
		The Far Shore is a consummate expression of Joyce Wieland’s artistic sensibility, a gorgeous painterly film, formal in conception, deliberate in its flagrant symbolism (the rigid imposition of WASP power on French-Canadian culture) and portrayal of Canadian myths (the mystery of Tom Thomson’s drowning in Algonquin Park), and exuding romantic naturalism.
		This northern love story, rooted in the landscape of the Group of Seven and the realities of the Canadian experience, is a tale of passion both carnal and artistic.

		It has been over 10 years since Lind received Wieland's approval for her project and having spent a considerable amount of time and energy researching and writing Joyce Wieland: Artist on Fire, it is with a sense of sadness, relief and exhilaration that her book has finally been released.
		In her telling of the story, Lind is keenly aware of Wieland's role as a woman who forged a path and an identity for herself in a patriarchal society.
