Overview

Poetry. Art. Artwork by Suzanne Northcott. Beginning in the 1950s, WHITE ALBUM charts the life of a young woman born in India, growing up in Canada during an era of explosive change, both cultural and political. Set to the music of the last half-century, WHITE ALBUM poses provocative questions: What is an identity? How does the noise of history-the chanting crowds, the gunshots, the guitar feedback-soundtrack our sense of self? Blurring together diverse media, WHITE ALBUM blends the words of award-winning poet Rishma Dunlop with the paintings of acclaimed artist Suzanne Northcott. The result is a groundbreaking, interdisciplinary collection-a montage of brilliant images, driven by a blistering soundtrack of language. WHITE ALBUM is a unique artists' book of poetry and visual art.
