NOCTURNE’S 10TH ANNIVERSARY

THIS YEAR’S THEME: VANISHA NOTE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

What a difference 10 years makes, amiright!?

On behalf of the Nocturne: art at night Board of Di-rectors, and all the organizing committees, we are

excited to welcome you to the 10th edition of Nocturne! I would like to begin by thanking our 2017 curators,

Anna Sprague and Emily Lawrence, who offered up the provocative theme of VANISH for Nocturne’s 10th year and who masterminded the Halifax Public Gardens anchor site. I hope you will spend some time there, but also experience all the other amazing proj-ects that are hosted on both sides of our harbour!

An overwhelming ‘thank you’ to all the artists, com-munity groups, and galleries who have put long hours of planning and dedication into their projects. You should all feel very proud!

I would also like to thank our hard working night-of volunteers who will be on the streets to help guide your way. A wholehearted ‘thank you’ also goes to our board members who work year-round to make this event a success. Thank you to our partners, sponsors, and funders, whose support is of undeniable value to the festival.

Nocturne 2017 has existed in our imaginations for the past 364 days and now it is yours to experience and take in. This year’s theme aims at nudging you a bit forward into the realm of disbelief, was it there? Or was it a dream?

As a curatorial premise, the term VANISH alludes to both the ephemeral nature of the Nocturne experience and the shifting

focus that occurs as new or forgotten memo-ries are transposed over prevalent narratives and pasts. VANISH is not erasure or removal, but an act of distancing or blurring. VANISH is slow magic — a camera lens slowly adjust-ing its focus.

In 2017, as we usher in a year punctuated with celebrations of significant moments in Canadian history, it is important to take time to reflect on the complex nature of cultural remembrance. As a means to creatively dis-rupt the dominant narratives that have come to define the city’s complex history, VANISH seeks to re-envision familiar public spaces throughout Halifax and Dartmouth as phan-tasmagoric alternative realities.

Our poster, designed again by Pierre Tab-biner, is indicative of that foggy feeling one gets as a lens turns, and the subject comes to focus. As the night vanishes, Nocturne does too.

Anna SpragueCuratorAnna sprague is a performance artist, creative facilitator, and faculty member at NSCAD University. In tandem with a provocative use of sculptural materials, bizarre props, and outlandish costumes, her art practice explores collaborative performance, public intervention, and site-specific installation as a means of critically engaging with site and history. anna holds degrees in English Literature (Mount Allison Uni-versity, Sackville, NB) and Fine Arts (Concordia University, Montreal, QC) and has a love for lowercase letters and underwhelming coinci-dences.

Emily LawrenceCuratorEmily is an artist, facilitator, and community organizer. She has cu-rated and coordinated several projects on behalf of arts organizations, including Eyelevel Gallery and the PEI Crafts Council. She is currently a member of Eyelevel Gallery’s Engagement Committee, and was a se-lected artist for the 2017/2018 NSCAD Community Studio Residency at the MacPhee Centre for Creative Learning in Dartmouth, NS. Her experiential approach to creating immersive environments, sculpture, and production design hinges on humour, food, and the senses as conduits to the underlying feminist and cultural curiosities that fuels her work.

COMMUNITY GROUPSCommunity groups are non-for-profits, cultural organizations, businesses, and educational/historical institutions. They will co-ordinate their own arts event or activity with the participation of artists or members of the community.

OPEN ARTISTSOpen Artists is a new category this year that allows artists to re-spond to an open call for projects. These projects are not juried by the organizers, but are inspiring works created by people from the community in response to the theme and to Nocturne.
