This book is published on the occasion of the exhibition 'Haute Culture. A Retrospective, 1969-1994', organized by ARC/Musée d'Art moderne de la Ville de Paris, February 11 - April 30, 2011, and the Art Gallery Toronto, July 16, 2011 - January 1, 2012. This volume presents an overview of the Canadian collective's bold mingling of reality and fiction and their frequently transgressive, parodic incursions upon both art and society. It traces such prevalent themes of their oeuvre as the mystique of the artist and the creative process, glamour as a creative tool, art's relationship to media and mass culture, architecture and archaeology, sexuality and AIDS.
