14-Foot-Tall Portrait of
the 'Face of Canada'

8

In celebration of Canada's 150th anniversary, the Royal Ontario
Museum in Toronto installed "Face of Canada," The Canada
150 Commemorative Edition by Robert Young in the museum's
Hyacinth Gloria Chen Crystal Court. Part of the "Young
World Faces" collection, the 14 x 10-foot textile artwork
features the photograph of a Canadian citizen with the
country's flag painted across her face. EFI printed the portrait
onto A. Berger Lighttex fabric with a Vutek FabriVu 3240.
The special edition one-off differed from the more than 40
other pieces in the "Young World Faces" with production on a
white background, rather than black. (See page 10 of our April
2016 issue for the full story.) The original textile series was
printed by Mississauga, Ontario-based McRae Imaging: 41
7-foot tall canvases displaying faces with the national flags of
each participant in the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto.

PANTONE COLOR
OF THE YEAR 2018:
ULTRA VIOLET
Pantone has crowned "Pantone 18-3838, Ultra Violet" as the
Pantone Color of the Year for 2018. The blue-based purple shade
is described as: drawing images of the cosmos; night sky; musical
icons such as Prince, David Bowie, and Jimi Hendrix; "it" foods
like acai and purple cauliflower; and more to the mind's eye.
