2015., Adult, Art Gallery of Ontario Call No: 759.11 H314i Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: "This generously illustrated book examines the most significant period in the work of Lawren Harris, who was central to defining a distinctive Canadian art in the 20th century. Sparse landscapes of Lake Superior's northern shores, bold visions of the Rocky Mountains and haunting landscapes from the Eastern Arctic are hallmark themes of Lawren Harris's paintings. He was a founding member of the renowned "Group of Seven" artists' group, who believed that the Canadian landscape was central to the foundation of a national identity. Focusing on Harris's most important work of the 1920s through the early 1930s, this monograph shows the artist's remarkable use of color, light, and composition resulting in powerful scenes that reflect his progress toward a universal vision of nature's spiritual power"--Provided by publisher.
