The Gastown Riot, also known as ‘The Battle of Maple Tree Square’, occurred in Vancouver, Canada, on August 7, 1971. STAN DOUGLAS: ABBOTT & CORDOVA, 7 AUGUST 1971 focuses on the stunning monumental photo installation depicting a violent confrontation in 1971 between police and rioters that world renowned visual artist, Stan Douglas, erected in the Woodward Building’s atrium in order to revisit the event and explore the politics of urban conflict. The book also addresses various issues raised by Douglas’s work, including the suppression and assimilation of counterculture.
