Industrial Niagara, an exhibition, brings together key works by members of the Research Centre in Interdisciplinary Arts and Creative Culture, Brock University and responds to the natural environs and the features that distinguish the presence, loss or history of industry in Niagara’s landscape. A combination of hinterland, cataract and escarpment, waterways and canals, hydro-electric generators and high-tension wires, manufacturing facilities, factories, subdivisions and farmland, this is the first of a series of reflections or aesthetic interpretations on the meaning of locale (genius loci).
