Canadian artist Max Dean’s work focuses heavily on the performance and interactive aspects as well as the experience that the viewer gets when approaching his work. Perhaps best known in Toronto for his Robotic Chair which briefly was on display during Luminato in 2007, Toronto now gets a the chance to take a closer look at Max’s work. Until January 31, more than 40 years worth of his work is on display at the Nicholas Metivier Gallery (451 King St. W) in Toronto. I stopped by on the opening night to experience some of Max’s work.

It’s been at least a year since I first came across Seen Reading, a blog run by Torontonian Julie Wilson that I once called “the Gossip Girl of book readers.” Since then, Julie has spotted hundreds of readers on the TTC, blogging them in her very unique fashion. Just before Christmas, I tagged along with Julie along the Bloor West subway line to get her take on readers in Toronto. Music by Caribou.
