Life and educationMina Totino was born in Greater Sudbury, Ontario.[1] She obtained her BFA from Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in 1982.[1] Artistic careerBest known for her work in painting, Mina Totino has been exhibited widely, appearing in solo and group exhibitions in Montreal, Toronto and Berlin.[1] Her studio practice, teaching, writing, and curating are informed by her continued research into the history of art and painting. Totino first came to prominence in the 1985 Young Romantics exhibition at the Vancouver Art Gallery. Totino's work is informed by contemporary criticism, especially literary and film criticism that have analyzed the position of the imaginary spectator. Solo ExhibitionsMina Totino, Charles H. Scott Gallery, 2010Totino presented her solo exhibition Mina Totino at the Charles H. Scott Gallery in Vancouver. in 2010 curated by Cate Rimmer.[2] The exhibition included new work by Totino, namely a series of small canvases, each 40 by 40 centimetres, entitled A situation wherein some ideas about painting are furthered by means of a quantity of small squares.[3] Along this series were other works on canvas that continue Totino's engagement with the history of painting, abstraction and the medium of paint.[3] For this recent work, Totino claims "I’ve just continued the argument further and my interests further. I find that the actual dealing with the paint itself and the qualities that are inherent in paint have quite a bit of interest. And I enjoy the history of it."[3] The exhibition's opening was simultaneously a book launch for Totino's I Look Up, Volume One, 1997 – 2000, the first of three volumes presenting the artist's Polaroid photographs of clouds taken from 1997 to 2010.[2] I Look Up is published by the Charles H.
