The group was involved in numerous research \u00adprojects, presentations and exhibitions in Canada and internationally.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Nostalgia for the Present<\/em> is the most recent exhibition of Blue Republic. The artworks, assembled from discarded industrial materials and \u00adre-fashioned ready-mades, invite reflection on the commonplace and the ideologies that inscribe them. Alluding to systems of authority, currencies of exchange and habits of consumption, collection and waste, the project exposes the underlying mechanisms and motivations that govern society\u2019s evolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignfull is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/esse.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/64_PF06_Blue-Republic_Nostalgia-for-the-present-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-175882\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/64_PF06_Blue-Republic_Nostalgia-for-the-present-2-scaled.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/64_PF06_Blue-Republic_Nostalgia-for-the-present-2-scaled-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/64_PF06_Blue-Republic_Nostalgia-for-the-present-2-scaled-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/64_PF06_Blue-Republic_Nostalgia-for-the-present-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/64_PF06_Blue-Republic_Nostalgia-for-the-present-2-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/64_PF06_Blue-Republic_Nostalgia-for-the-present-2-1536x2048.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Blue Republic<\/strong><br>MacLaren Art Centre, Barrie, 2008.<br>Photo : Blue Republic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style='display: none;'>Blue Republic<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1303,"featured_media":175884,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"categories":[281,885],"numeros":[4077],"disciplines":[],"statuts":[335],"checklist":[],"auteurs":[],"artistes":[4104],"thematiques":[],"type_portfolio":[],"class_list":["post-176063","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archive","category-portfolio","numeros-64-waste","statuts-archive","artistes-blue-republic-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/176063","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1303"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/175884"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=176063"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=176063"},{"taxonomy":"numeros","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/numeros?post=176063"},{"taxonomy":"disciplines","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/disciplines?post=176063"},{"taxonomy":"statuts","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/statuts?post=176063"},{"taxonomy":"checklist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/checklist?post=176063"},{"taxonomy":"auteurs","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/auteurs?post=176063"},{"taxonomy":"artistes","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artistes?post=176063"},{"taxonomy":"thematiques","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thematiques?post=176063"},{"taxonomy":"type_portfolio","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.esse.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/type_portfolio?post=176063"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
