“Everything started to fall apart,” she recalls, “Presentation House had a huge debt. The bank blew the whistle and said, ‘you've got to do something fast.’

Working on a vastly reduced

budget and a substantial cut in pay from the good old Canada Council days, Love had to depend largely

on adrenalin to get her through the next few years. She scrimped and saved until the gallery finally pulled itself out ef debt.
