Mix: Songs To Chill To vol. 11

In this audio clip, Stephanie Bokenfohr, Adult Programs Coordinator, describes Vija Celmin’s Comet (1991), on view in the section titled Manifest Abstractions of the exhibition Uncommon Language.

Comet is a relief print on paper and depicts a starry sky. Vija Celmins is best known for her hyper-realistic renditions of natural scenes that appear limitless—ocean waves, deserts, clouds and, in this work, the night sky. By drawing or painting these environments from a photographic image, her process allows for a transition from the real world to photograph, then to print, and now framed here in the exhibition Uncommon Language.

This described tour was produced for the Vancouver Art Gallery by Stephanie Bokenfohr, with sound design by Derek Brunen.

Founded in 1931, the Vancouver Art Gallery is recognized as one of North America’s most respected and innovative visual arts institutions. The Gallery’s innovative ground-breaking exhibitions, extensive public programs and emphasis on advancing scholarship all focus on the historical and contemporary art of British Columbia and international centres, with special attention to the accomplishments of First Nations artists and the art of the Asia Pacific region­—through the Institute of Asian Art founded in 2014. The Gallery’s programs also explore the impacts of images in the larger sphere of visual culture, design and architecture.

The Vancouver Art Gallery is a not-for-profit organization supported by its members, individual donors, corporate funders, foundations, the City of Vancouver, the Province of British Columbia through the British Columbia Arts Council, and the Canada Council for the Arts. We thank everyone for their continuing support.

The Vancouver Art Gallery is situated on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples, and is respectful of the Indigenous stewards of the land it occupies, whose rich cultures are fundamental to artistic life in Vancouver and to the work of the Gallery.
