Exhibition catalogue for the Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery's 1995 exhibit Beauty #2: New and Emerging Artists in Toronto. The exhibit featured work by Michael Buckland, Janieta Eyre, Toni Hafkenscheid, Jill Henderson, G.B. Jones, John Marriott, Steven Reinke, Slim Pickings, Marc Streifling, and Shannon Wadsworth. The catalogue features a curatorial essay by Philip Monk, who explains that the work shares several themes, which are particular to the art of "Generation X," including a focus on the art of advertising, subcultures, and an attitude of ironic cynicism. Monk also discusses the changing conditions for young artists at the time in Canada, which, due to lack of economic resources, gave rise to part-time artists and an art of ideas more than of materials.
