A panel discussion on the uses and abuses of how urban dwellers think about their relationships with nature, patterns of gentrification in Toronto, and how people have been inhabiting spaces like the Don Valley much longer than people assume.
How Toronto’s early punk scene erupted into life, shaped by art school, DIY spaces, and a city steeped in constraint, boredom, and borrowed influence—told by people who were there.

“The Synagogue at Babyn Yar: Turning the Nightmare of Evil into a Shared Dream of Good” is as much an exhibition about how to memorialize a traumatic, genocidal event as it is about the synagogue itself. To mark the end of its run at Koffler, we look back at how this unique show came together.
Commentary from the concluding panel discussion at the half-day symposium “Babyn Yar, the Holocaust and Beyond: Architectures of Memory”, organized by Koffler Arts.
