• ‘High Slack’ is the moment when the tide has risen to its highest point before the ebb. Vancouver artist and UBC Fine Arts Professor Judith Williams sees this pause in the tides as a metaphor for a moment of calm in the social current. The installation of paintings, sculptures, photographs and bookworks at MOA is a series of proposals for future directions in our relations to the “other,” whoever, and whatever that might be. This exhibition is not a statement; rather, it provides an atmosphere for contemplation and change.

• Using Pacific Northwest Coast Indian masks from MOA’s collection, this exhibition illustrates the tradition of making masks that extends along the entire Northwest culture area from northern Washington State through British Columbia to the Alaskan panhandle. The range of mask types and their use is considerable. They may represent chiefs and ancestors of high rank, or more commonly, serve as a means of making the supernatural world visible. Masks vary in size, shape, complexity and purpose from one tribal group to another. This exhibit combines both historical and contemporary examples of this dramatic art form.
