Cosmic Histories
DAVID TOMAS, RUM AND COCA COLA, 17:00, 1992
In Rum and Coca Cola, David Tomas explores connections between

stereotypes developed by post-World War II “American Imaginary
Culture” relating to the lifestyle, media, and landscape to be
experienced by white middle-class, middle-aged, post-1950's space
age connoisseurs.
Kate Armstrong is a Vancouver-based writer, artist and

the culture sector with a specific focus on intersections
