The Emerging Voices artists receive an honorarium of $500 and one of them will be awarded a $2000 prize on the night of Nuit Blanche. The Open Calls for NBW2018 will launch in October 2017. À chaque année, nous organisons deux appels ouverts et un comité de sélection, composé d’artistes et d’administrateurs dans le domaine des arts, choisissent parmi des centaines de participants. Cette année, nous exposons treize projets éparpillés à travers les trois zones. Nous vous invitons à entrer en contact avec les artistes afin d’entamer une conversation au sujet de l’art contemporain. Grâce à notre partenaire de production, le Conseil des arts de Winnipeg, les artistes ont reçu des rémunérations pour leur projets.

Illuminate the Night 2017 Illumine la nuit in alphabetical order / par ordre alphabétique Dominion: 16 Trajectories by Lawrence Bird Dominion: 16 Trajectories by Lawrence Bird, a Winnipeg- based urban designer, architect, and visual artist, will project satellite images harvested from 16 trajectories across the prairie landscape. The images are projection-mapped, with accompanying audio, and explore how we have demarcated and divided the prairies for colonization and profit – yet the prairies (and their image) fight back. MAP LOCATION 9PM–4AM Red River College Outdoor Screen, 160 Princess St. vimeo.com/lawrencebird #1 floating by Hee-Jung Shin floating reflects the emotional experience that occurs in response to feelings of cultural and social displacement. Seventy-two hand-sewn handbags made of mulberry paper are placed in rows on a wall. Projected on them is a video of an origami paper boat, isolated and floating in a body of water. The handbag is an everyday object that is easily overlooked. It serves as a general metaphor of the identity which people carry. In contrast, the origami paper MAP LOCATION #2 boat, a culturally familiar object, represents the artist’s own identity interacting with a new environment. As the paper boat floats, it gradually absorbs the water, conforming to its surroundings. As a result, the boat is dissolving. 6PM–AM heejungshin.com Manitoba Museum (North Entrance Wall), 190 Rupert Ave. 9
Homes by PelmuSnowbird This project is a collaborative interactive video installation in which the public can immerse themselves into two landscapes; Kristin Snowbird’s birthplace of Pine Creek, MB and Theo Pelmus’ home of Romania. The work is made up of two projections recreated through the artists’ memory and words. The projection will consist of the landscapes from each home, with photos and words in Ojibwe/Salteaux and Romanian language. Two spaces are created, an Indigenous MAP LOCATION #3 one and a Romanian one. As the two spaces switch there will be words said in each others’ language: Ojibwe/ Saulteaux and Romanian. The projections will act as the translation of these words. 9PM–2AM Little Brown Jug Brewing, 336 William Ave. theopelmus.com Insomnia by Antiscian Productions Insomnia is a movement based performance piece that explores the relationship between sleep and restlessness. It is inspired by the secrets hidden in the darkness, the only time when we are in a state of unknowing. When we sleep we are unaware of ourselves and our surroundings. Even those who suffer from insomnia often experience a warped perspective of consciousness which is clouded by exhaustion and frustration. The performance will capture the MAP LOCATION #4 unconscious moments of body twitches, tosses and turns, and restless fits that many people experience in the late hours of the night. Audiences are invited to come and go as they please. 6PM–4AM 74 Princess St. Finch Gallery Workspace, 74 Princess St. facebook.com/antiscianproduction 10
Keep Me Awake – A Storytelling Shuttle Service by Peg City Car Co-Op On buses, commuters overshare to lighten their load. In taxis, strangers let details of their day out of their mouths like fireflies: in bright, short bursts. On airplanes, passengers confide their fears, shining light into the darkness. On long road trips, the night driver asks a favour: “Tell me a story to keep me awake.” A storyteller will travel with the patrons, sharing a ride, and a story, to transport the body and the mind in two directions at once. MAP LOCATION 9PM–2AM STOPS: #5 1. King St. + William Ave. 2. Provencher Blvd. + St Jean Baptiste St. 3. The drop-off loop @ The Forks 4. Graham Ave. + Edmonton St. pegcitycarcoop.ca The Light Within The Tunnel by Madeline Rae and Talia Shaaked Regardless of one’s individual life, there are material and immaterial elements of being human that we all share: sense, movement, sound, emotion and thought. Talia Shaaked and Madeline Rae invite you to experience The Light Within the Tunnel. Traverse this alternate passageway of the exchange: comprised of two curtain-walls made of string and projected video. After watching the video, the audience is invited to pass through and MAP LOCATION #6 interact with the wall of string. Experience the fluid physicality of the curtain barriers, and bathe in the glow of the projected video. 8PM–2:30AM Alleyway between Artspace and Red River Books, 100 Arthur St. madelinerae.net & taliashaaked.com Mapping People by Julie Cosgrove and Riaz Mehmood Mapping People is a new media interactive installation. Viewers trigger a triangulated map through their presence in space, generating a projection of a real-time drawing that is continually evolving. This installation aims to engage imagined and real space through movement, and explores the potential for exchanges and new experiences. MAP LOCATION 6PM–2AM Rudy’s Eat & Drink, 375 Graham Ave. juliecosgrove.com & riazmehmood.com #7 11
Overshadow 1 by Lyla Rye Inspired by the space-age design and utopian aspirations of the 1970’s, Overshadow, by Toronto artist Lyla Rye, re- imagines an iconic geodesic dome as a planet in a strange eclipse. The illusion created obscures this vision of the future with images of contemporary life shot by the artist’s teenage daughter. By simultaneously generating and exposing how the eclipse illusion is created, the video reflects on generations of human experience. MAP LOCATION 6PM–4AM Manitoba Museum (West Entrance Wall), 190 Rupert Ave. #8 lylarye.com Riot Resist Revolt Redux by Frances Koncan by Vault Projects When the water is too polluted to drink, and the air is impossible to breathe, how will we go on? We have created stars to replace the stars we can no longer see… but what happens when even they are no longer enough to sustain us? A companion piece to the play, “Riot Resist Revolt Repeat” by Frances Koncan, Riot Resist Revolt Redux is a deeper exploration of the Indigenous and European mythology MAP LOCATION #9 surrounding the creation of our world, and the relationship between humankind and the planet upon which we live. A half-hour sensory journey through the diverse landscapes of human existence and hidden corners of human consciousness. 9PM–12AM Forth Patio, 171 McDermot Ave. franceskoncan.com vault-projects.com The Wall of FAME by FLASH Photographic Festival Meet us at the corner of Arthur and Albert streets after dark at 9PM and get your portrait taken.

Emerging Voices 2017 Voix émergentes During Nuit Blanche, a jury of art professionals will tour the three Emerging Voices exhibitions and projects, and award a $2,000 first place prize. The prize is generously sponsored by Winnipeg artist Jeff Funnell. As Jeff so eloquently says, “there are no losers in art.” Durant Nuit Blanche, un jury visitera les trois projets de Voix émergentes et le(la) gagnant(e) recevra un prix de 2000$. Le prix a été généreusement offert par Jeff Funnell, un artiste de Winnipeg. Comme Jeff le dit avec éloquence, “il n’y a pas de perdants dans l’art”.

Each peg is designed to fit on a keychain and becomes a small memento to provide a MAP LOCATION #12 memory of the evening. 6PM–2AM King’s Head Pub Parking Lot, 116 King St. 13
PHOTO CREDIT: Calvin Jospeh Wall-to-Wall Finale by Synonym Art Consultation 2016 Rattling Change by OliveUs Collective “There was music playing in the air, and the energy of the night felt so alive that she started to dance. As she danced, she looked out the window to the bustling streets of Winnipeg, and she saw that a crowd had gathered below to watch her and share in her impromptu celebration of the night.” We dreamt of having a celebration in our apartment, but with the whole city! Pretty lights, wispy fabrics, chocolate cake, quiet conversations in corners, and the feeling that MAP LOCATION anything can happen. Join us in the McKim Building for our creation of dance, music, theatre and art. We want to feel the night change us, and for you to share in that too. #13 7PM–2AM McKim Building, 211 Bannatyne Ave. 14
15 Independent Community Projects Projets communautaires indépendants What makes Nuit Blanche Winnipeg special is how organic it feels for those who attend, and how the entire community comes together, chipping in to make it bigger and better every year. The majority of NBW events are independently organized and hosted by cultural institutions, artists, musicians, businesses and performers. This year is a record breaking year but luckily you have all night to explore! Ce qui fait Nuit Blanche Winnipeg une expérience spéciale, est le sentiment organique que l’événement procure à ceux qui y prennent part, ainsi que la façon dont toute la communauté se réunit et fait sa part afin de rendre l’événement plus grandiose et plus réussi que l’année précédente. La majorité des activités de NBW sont organisées indépendamment, et hébergées par des Nuit Blanche Winnipeg 2017 institutions culturelles ainsi que des artistes, musiciens, entreprises et interprètes individuels. Cette année, il y a plus d’événements que jamais – une chance que vous aurez toute la nuit ! 15
