Subseries contains images mostly taken by McLennan that show the Bill Reid pole which sat outside the Museum of Anthropology at UBC being taken down and moved inside the museum because it was no longer stable due to weathering. This spurred a project funded with a Canada Council grant to then create a new pole to put up in its place. This pole was carved by Jim Hart and called the Respect to Bill Reid pole.
Subseries contains one file consisting of correspondence, budget reports, drawings of the cabinetry, and label designs. McLennan worked closely on this project as liaison to Bill Reid while the cases were being constructed to house Reid's jewelry pieces.
Subseries contains three files consisting of records related to the Bill Reid symposium which was titled “The Legacy of Bill Reid: A Critical Enquiry”. The records comprise planning of the symposium, research done after the symposium on related topics, and McLennan’s presentation.

Border Zones: New Art Across Cultures
Part of Karen Duffek fonds
This sub-series consists of records relating to the exhibition Border Zones: New Art Across Cultures. Duffek curated this exhibition, which was on display at the Museum of Anthropology from January 23 – September 12, 2010. The following is a description of the exhibition taken from the museum’s website:
“Curated by Karen Duffek, MOA Curator of Contemporary Visual Arts. Presented with Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad, Border Zones: New Art Across Cultures is an exhibition of international contemporary art that inaugurated MOA’s Audain Gallery on January 23, 2010. It brings together the work of twelve artists engaged in a dialogue about cultural boundaries –within and between communities, art practices, audiences, or institutions – and the possibility of translation across them.
Through a surprising diversity of media and approaches, the artists selected for this show use the idea of a border space to raise questions about migration and identity, knowledge protection and access, and the permeability and construction of boundaries cross-culturally. Borders are considered not only as lines or markers that divide cultures, but also as uncertain spaces that are sites of encounter and transformation.Participating artists include Hayati Mokhtar, Dain-Iskandar Said, John Wynne, Edward Poitras, Thamotharampillai Shanaathanan, Tania Mouraud, Marianne Nicolson, Gu Xiong, Prabakar Visvanath, Rosanna Raymond, Ron Yunkaporta, and Laura Wee Láy Láq, please visit www.moa.ubc.ca/blog.
Border Zones: New Art Across Cultures, which will be shown through September 12, 2010, is part of MOA’s commitment to exploring, developing, and inviting new ways of representing understandings about culture in the 21st century.
To give you the inside scoop on the ideas behind the exhibit, visit our interactive online magazine at www.BorderZones.ca.
Here you’ll find personal and provocative articles on each of the artists by distinguished contributors such as award-winning journalist Jan Wong, educator and activist Gerald Taiaiake Alfred, and filmmaker and artist Loretta Todd, among others. You’ll also find video interviews with the artists, regular updates on artist files, artwork exclusive to the webzine, provocative reviews of the exhibition, and a blog devoted to the idea of borders.
Over the course of the exhibition, BorderZones.ca will become an archive about the idea of borders, particularly how new spaces of thought and meaning are created and contested at the boundaries of knowledge, language, art, culture, and politics.”
Records within the sub-series include grant application materials, the exhibition proposal, budgets, reports, grant applications, correspondence, interviews, promotional materials, photographs, and press cuttings.
