Abstract
Over the course of her artistic life, Montreal artist Betty Goodwin (1923-2008) 1 avidly created notebooks and sketchbooks, using them to record images, thoughts, quotations, and technical processes.These notebooks were central to her artistic practice and the vital role they played is clearly demonstrated in "Betty Goodwin: Work Notes," 2 curated by Georgiana Uhlyarik, at the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO), where they are being displayed for the first time.Goodwin's notebooks comprise an integral part of her fonds, bequeathed to the AGO's E.P. Taylor Research Library & Archives.3 Along with the notebooks, the fonds contains correspondence, photographs, small objects kept in her studio, and other material, as well as 102 printing plates, a selection of which are also on display here."Betty Goodwin: Work Notes" is part of an exhibition entitled, "At Work: Hesse, Goodwin, Martin," 4 which explores aspects of the studio practice of Eva Hesse, Betty Goodwin, and Agnes Martin.The three parts are thematically linked, however, each had its own curator.The exhibition as a whole is cohesive; it shows the varied approaches of these three mostly contemporary artists, and viewers are able to contrast the methodologies applied by these three, very different, artists.Each area is tightly focused on a particular aspect of the work and working process of the artist under consideration: "The Islands," Martin's suite of twelve subtle paintings; the fragile and enigmatic "test" sculptures by Hesse; 6 and Goodwin's notebooks and printing plates.Although the artworks in each section are supplemented by documentary 1 See Jessica

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
