the émigré Canadians' brawl: the early-Experialist framing fashion
the early-Experialist fashion of making art out of the accessories of artistic presentation
Context
A period-marker in the décor: Molly Notkin's framed empty frames allude to "the early-Experialist fashion of making art out of the accessories of artistic presentation." Experialism named as an aesthetic era with its own gallery-fashions — the doctrine's cultural sediment, art about its own frames, matching the founding's self-description as "an essentially aesthetic affair" (081).
