Author: Douglas, StanSince the 1980s, Canadian artist Stan Douglas has created films, installations, photographs and other multidisciplinary projects that address moments of rupture where “history could go one way or the other.” Across formats, his images recall things that haunt: unresolved moments, political tumult and violent turning points; plots that retain a hold on the present. His work operates within the genres of cinema, photography and theatre to present a point of view that is always staged.Douglas’ rigourous explorations of these charged histories show us how to “think historically in the present” and frame contemporary crises in a longer timeline.ISBN 9781954947184.
