Caught in the Act: The Viewer as Performer is an ambitious exhibition which attests to the National Gallery of Canada's ongoing commitment to contemporary Canadian art. Eleven artists and collectives present an occasion for us to explore our roles as active participants in the artistic process; the active exchange between viewer and object becomes as significant as the artwork itself. The exhibition catalogue documents sixteen large-scale sculptural installations, while the essays provide illuminating perspectives on the artists' works in Caught in the Act.

Over the last four decades Chris Cran has earned a reputation as one of the most important painters in Canada. He has challenged our experience of traditional genres of painting by creating tensions between the discordant styles and movements from which he samples, including Pop Art, Photorealism, Modernist Abstraction and Op art. To complicate this mix, he has introduced popular imagery from advertising and graphic art from magazines from the 1950s and 1960s, producing works that exude a rare and unapologetic boldness and confidence.

De-con-structions focuses on works by Michel de Broin, Jean-Pierre Gauthier, Karilee Fuglem, Tricia Middleton and Annie Thibault, five Quebec artists whose interventions question the museum as idea and context. The installations created by these artists prompt the museum to confront and question its role of collecting, preserving, and displaying art; in their hands, the gallery space itself is transformed from a repository for art into an artist's studio and laboratory.
