She has also worked in drawing, video, installation and collaborative public art, often combining these media with her work in print to prompt questions as to the character and consequences of our existing cultural paradigms. Her artwork focuses on the evolving relationship between human culture and the ecosphere, with special consideration given to the ways in which individual and collective identity become evident through land usage. Zeigler lives and works in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. BiographyZeigler was born in London, Ontario in 1949.[1][2] She received her BFA in Painting and her MFA in Printmaking from the University of Illinois. She also studied in Munich, Germany at the Akademie der bildenden Künste and the Universität München. She has taught at the University of Alberta, Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, Queen's University, and at the University of Illinois. She is currently a Professor at the University of British Columbia, Department of Art History, Visual Art and Theory,[3] in British Columbia, Canada, where she is also the supervisor of the UBC Print Media Research Centre. ArtworkBarbara Zeigler's artworks and writings endeavor to expand boundaries of print practice and critical discourse and have influenced multi-disciplinary printmaking and the technology of digital imaging in Canada, where she incorporated photo-based and large-format work into intaglio and lithographic prints.[4] She also incorporated drawn and photographic elements into print, an innovative approach in the 80s. In the 90s she pioneered the extension of print-based work in installation art.{{citation needed|date=March 2018}} Hidden SitesZeigler exhibition and work Hidden Sites focuses on overlooked places and journey's which have significant and debilitating effects, namely the five hour journey of garbage removal from the large city of Vancouver to the Cache Creek landfill, and Broughton Archipelago of central British Columbia, where migrating salmon is significantly hurt by sea lice from a multitude of nearby fish farms the salmon must cross in their journey. Exhibited at the Richmond Art Gallery in 2009,[5] the show consisted of a series of still and time based works that reflected on the long journeys of the trucks and salmon, examining how the landscape and ecosystem are being re-shaped. The Fraser river is considered to be the greatest salmon river in the world, Robin Laurence describes the urgency of Zeigler's work in that it "asks, given the evidence of toxins leaching into wells and waterways from the mammoth landfill? Given the evidence, too, of fish farms, logging, pulp mills, and global warming, all wreaking destruction on the native salmon population. For how long?"[6] EarthmakersFrom 1995-1998, Ziegler collaborated with artist Joan Smith on the traveling exhibition Earthmakers. The installation work conjured up the natural cycles of life and death in time, and the delicate nature of the ecosystem, by presenting what inhabits one square meter of old-growth forest soil. Further activated with multi-media elements, photo-etchings on kozo paper, a soundtrack, collage and monoprints related to the landscape, the installation also invited contributions by the general public and from materials found in the area. School programming and classes also contributed collage and monoprint works. It is noted in Paula Gustafson's review of the work, that Zeigler and Smith's career has shown a devotion to inquiring and critiquing aspects of environmental desecration and humanities complacency, the research process of the work started "not of deconstructing as might be expected, but of reconstruction-via drawing, photography, photocopying, computer imaging, and etching--of the unseen and virtually unknown beneath their feet."[7] Collaboration between Zeigler and Smith was an integral component to understanding the intention towards the content, as the notes accompanying the exhibition show that "the artists spent hundreds of preparatory hours on the project in pursuits that sought to balance 'shared works' with 'autonomous creation.' The attitude of artists to information --the scientific component (for which soil scientist Jeff Battigelli provided soil samples and expertise) attests to the fact that ideas need not be treated as property, but ought to be nurtured like flourishing organisms as they are advanced through art production."[8] The exhibition was first mounted at Edmonton Art Gallery, then Nanaimo Art Gallery, and at the Richmond Art Gallery. A selection of images of the work were reproduced in the September 1997 book "The Best of Printmaking" by Lynne Allen and Phyllis McGibbon,[9] as well as a more thorough spread in The Capilano Review.[10] References1. ^{{cite book|author=Suzanne Devonshire Baker|title=Artists of Alberta|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=IZGZl-MBXEAC&pg=PA14|year=1980|publisher=University of Alberta|isbn=978-0-88864-030-7|pages=14–}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Zeigler, Barbara}}2. ^{{cite book|author=Bente Roed Cochran|title=Printmaking in Alberta, 1945-1985|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tQaSmZBStqYC&pg=PA43|year=1989|publisher=University of Alberta|isbn=978-0-88864-139-7|pages=43–}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=https://ahva.ubc.ca/persons/barbara-zeigler/|title=Art History, Visual Art and Theory, UBC|date=March 10, 2018|website=ahva.ubc.ca/|access-date=March 10, 2018}} 4. ^{{Cite book|title=Printmaking At The Edge|last=Noyce|first=Richard|publisher=A & C Black Publishers Limited|year=2006|isbn=978-0-7136-6784-4|location=London, UK|pages=71}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.richmondartgallery.org/exhibition/hidden-sites/|title=Richmond Art Gallery: Hidden Sites|date=March 10, 2018|website=richmondartgallery.org|access-date=March 10, 2018}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.straight.com/article-229505/works-turn-dire-riveting|title=Works by Diyan Achjadi and Barbara Zeigler turn the dire riveting|last=Laurence|first=Robin|date=June 10, 2009|work=The Georgia Straight|access-date=March 10, 2018}} 7. ^{{Cite journal|last=Gustafson|first=Paula|date=Spring 1998|title=Earthmakers at Richmond Art Gallery|url=|journal=Asian Art News|volume=1998|pages=79|via=}} 8. ^{{Cite journal|last=Mahon|first=Patrick|date=Fall 1996|title=Earthmakers|url=|journal=Contemporary Impression: The Journal of the American Print Alliance|volume=4, 2|pages=2–5|via=}} 9. ^{{Cite book|title=The Best of Printmaking: An International Collection|last=Allen|first=Lynne|publisher=A Quarry Book|year=1997|isbn=1-56496-371-3|location=USA}} 10. ^{{Cite journal|last=Smith, Zeigler|first=Joan, Barbara|date=Summer 1996|title=Barbara Zeigler and Joan Smith: Earthmakers Photographs|journal=The Capilano Review|volume=2.19|pages=32–58|via=}} 10 : 21st-century American printmakers|University of Illinois alumni|Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich alumni|Academy of Fine Arts, Munich alumni|University of Alberta faculty|Queen's University faculty|University of Illinois faculty|University of British Columbia faculty|Living people|1949 births |
