    After the Grain Elevator - Re-imaging the Prairie Icon
    Group exhibition of Prairie and expatriate Prairie Artists
    Curated by Ulrike Veith
    The new Millennium coincides with enormous economic challenges to the Prairie region which have far reaching political and cultural implications. Prairie Grain Elevators, the stereotypical, touristic bucolic icons dotting the landscape at regular intervals, are being dismantled at a fast rate, due to the centralization and the restructuring of the farm economy. The dismantling of the elevator is symbolic of the changes the prairie region is undergoing.
    For many farming communities, the grain elevator is considered the symbol of their economic viability; these communities feel threatened if their local elevator is dismantled. To other communities, the grain elevator was always a questionable icon due to its romanticized use. For First Nations, the elevator is a symbol of colonialization, the loss of their land base and political independence.
    This is also a time for reflection on the regions’ past achievements, on their self-definition and self-perception, and on their future. The prairie regions have a long tradition of political and cultural activism and pulling together as communities. How will they react?
    This project invited artists to present alternative icons to take the elevator’s place. In the new Millennium , how will the region represent itself? Which economic, political, and cultural aspect of the prairies can be expressed in a new icon? This project will question the role and the need for a new icon representing the prairie region. Projects may include idiosyncratic interpretations, ambiguous icons and anti-icons.
    A Panel Discussion will be scheduled during this exhibition. Dates to be announced.
    This exhibition is part of the Little Gallery’s project application to the Canada Council Millennium Fund.
