“I wanted people to feel it,” Ontario artist Dara Vandor said of her Pax Americana exhibit. A fictional historical plaque by artist Dara Vandor was placed at the Princes’ Gates at Exhibition Place in Toronto on June 8. Frank Schumacher is a professor of history and director of international relations at Western University. “If it provokes an emotion, I’m happy.”One of the 20 fictional historical plaques is displayed inside Weldon Library at Western University. “That’s what makes art, art and not a manifesto or a government decree,” she said.
