In a country that can boast over 50,000 artists from its earliest pre-history to the present, it is a daunting challenge to try and capture the richness and diversity of Canada's complex artistic heritage. In Canadian Art: From Its Beginnings to 2000 art educator Anne Newlands gives us a long overdue and extraordinarily wide-ranging survey of more than 300 Canadian artists. Integrating Euro-Canadian artists from the past and present with those of Canada's First Peoples, the book reflects the range of artistic production across the country's vast geography. While many of Canada's most beloved and familiar artists are included, Canadian Art will introduce less familiar names as well. You will find traditional oil paintings and watercolors as well as sculpture, photography and installation work. Each artist is represented by a full-colour reproduction of their work, along with a short text that explores the work's context and offers some brief comments about the artist's life. Anne Newlands is an art educator at the National Gallery of Canada. A rich A-Z history of Canadian artists...introduces the oeuvre of each artist with a concisely written critique of one major work. Long overdue, comprehensive and wide-ranging survey of 320 artists.
