Beginning with an examination of the strong landscape traditions of the Group of Seven, Emily Carr and their followers, we explore the social and cultural debates of the 1930s and how artists and designers in the post-World War II period adapted the international concepts of Modernism and High Realism within a Canadian setting. The course concludes with an examination of the optimism and creativity of artists and designers presented to the world at Expo 67. |
