Dive into the second segment of the TERMS program, exploring the concept of “depression,” this time through the prism of the economic crisis of the 1930s. Read Andrée Lévesque’s essay, a professor in the Department of History at McGill University, shedding light on the repercussions of the Great Depression in Montreal. Explore a series of photographs taken by Canadian artist Margaret Watkins (1884-1969) during a stay in London amidst the Crisis years, along with the meticulous interpretation by Debra Antoncic, art historian, curator, and Director of the Riverbrink Art Museum.
