Hardback. Condition: Good. A stunning tribute to the art and life of one of the greatest Indigenous carvers of the last fifty years Born in 1955 on Village Island, Kingcome Inlet, British Columbia, Beau Dick was a Kwakwaka'wakw artist, activist and teacher. He lived and worked in Alert Bay. Although foremost an artist, Dick was actively engaged in all aspects of Kwakwaka'wakw culture: studying and revivifying the traditions of carving, dancing, and storytelling. From the age of fourteen Dick trained with his grandfather and father. His skills were further enhanced when he spent a period in Victoria working with his uncle, Henry Hunt. Dick later worked with many other artists, including Tony Hunt, Bill Reid, Robert Davidson and Doug Cranmer. He was part of a team of carvers working under the direction of Cranmer that recreated the 'Namgis Big House in 'Yalis. Dick's appreciation for Kwakwaka'wakw heritage inspired him to become involved in ceremony and the Hamatsa society of his nation and it has both imbued his work with the long traditions of Kwakwaka'wakw culture and embedded it within them. In 1986 Dick created a transformation mask for Expo '86 which now hangs in the Canadian Museum of History, in Gatineau, Quebec.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Since 1960, drawing has been the sole form of expression of British Columbia-based artist Ann Kipling. This publication chronicles one calendar year (2009) during which time Kipling produced 141 drawings, each magnificently illustrated here. While Kipling s work is centered upon the outdoors, landscape is not a word that can be easily used to describe her work. Neither can it be viewed through the lens of the formal nationalist tradition that the landscape genre carries in Canada. Robin Laurence examines Kipling s attentiveness to the environment that recalls Chinese landscape painting and calligraphy. Darrin Martens pursues the philosophical investigation with a call to look beyond representation to a process that embodies the very act of creation. Rosemarie Tovell explores Kipling's practice as a draftsperson, situating it within the historical and aesthetic context of an often misunderstood discipline.…

Paperback. Condition: New. The physical and conceptual landscape of British Columbia has changed dramatically over the past two centuries and artists have been at the forefront documenting, commenting on and interpreting subtle and dramatic changes to its social and material landscapes. This profusely illustrated publication focuses on works created by artists between 1858 and 1950 and chronicles the views and experiences of some of the country s most accomplished artists.

Artists featured include Jack Shadbolt, Emily Carr, Jock Macdonald, A.Y. Jackson, B.C. Binning, Lawren Harris, Maxwell Bates, Toni Onley, Ann Kipling, Laurence Paul Yuxweluptun and Roy Arden.…
