Power Plant energy just fails to connect
The Globe and Mail, May 2, 1987
A critique of the first exhibition at the Power Plant, Toronto: A Play of History. Mays briefly discusses the transformation of a heating and cooling facility on Toronto's Harbourfront into the Power Plant, the new home of the Art Gallery at Harbourfront. According to Mays, the exhibition contains many important and impressive works of art, but the organizers lacked an in-depth understanding of the art and its production.
