Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Mary Pratt; Introduction by Sandra Gwyn; Critical Essay by Gerta Moray; McGraw-Hill Ryerson Limited, Toronto, 1989. From the blurb After Mary Pratt's pictures, it's difficult to think of baked apples or red currant jelly or cod fillets as being ordinary, writes Sandra Gwyn in the Introduction to Mary Pratt. Because her work appeals to many people who aren't normally interested in art, she's probably had more influence on shaping the way we see things than any Canadian painter since the Group of Seven transformed our perception or our bleak northern landscape. Mary Pratt's work has been exhibited in most major galleries across Canada. Now, for the first time, her work has been collected and reproduced in book form. This richly illustrated volume, with over seventy full-colour plates accompanied by text written by the artist, represents all of Mary Pratt's major works to date. The things that turn me on to painting are the things I really like, Mary Pratt, remarks. Seeing the groceries come in, for instance. Or cooking. I'm getting supper and suddenly I look at the roast in the oven or the cod fillet spread out on the foil, and I get this gut reaction. I think that's gorgeous, that's absolutely wonderful, and I must save it. This large format book, 186 pages measuring 280mm X 270mm is in fine condition in a fine dust jacket that is now in a protective mylar wrap. This large and heavy volume may require additional postage. Mary Pratt (illustrator).…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Natalka Husar is a socially conscious artist passionately engaged in reflections on art and history. Her lifelong obsession with painting and with Ukraine, her ancestral home, has led her to create an overwhelming and immediately identifiable body of work centered on the conflict between the ideal of womanhood as silent and compliant and the self she sees as powerful and aggressive. Her complex images convey multiple narratives of the past and the present, of autobiography and social history, and of the lives of girls and women caught on the cusp of change. The view would be unrelenting were it not for a dark wit and an attention to texture and fabric reminiscent of Rembrandt and Vermeer. This sumptuously produced publication provides, as the title suggests, a unique visual and intellectual encounter with the work of a singular artist. Five essays and a text by the artist are accompanied by numerous color plates and fold-outs. Born in New Jersey and a graduate of Rutgers, Husar lives and works in Toronto. Published with the Macdonald Stewart Art Centre to accompany the nationally touring exhibition, The Burden of Innocence.…

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. SUBTITLED : ` First Nations Imagery in the Art of Emily Carr '. Emily Carr's gender worked against her, born in 1871, she would have been more readily accepted as a librarian or a nurse. She went to school in Victoria with two young female artist students from richer families, more capable of pulling societal strings, - these two were Sophie Pemberton and Josephine Crease. Emily (one of 5 sisters) quickly affirmed herself as a `Canadian' painter at a time when others were content to preserve the traditions of the British Empire. Part of Emily's Canadianess lead her to a pro-Indian and therefore anti-church philosophical positon, Despite these themes of conflict in her life she succeeded in becoming Canada's PREMIER painter of West Coast Indian culture.
