She is the Students’ Representative Council’s Corporation Representative, the President of Bishop’s chapter of the Golden Key International Honors Society, and a key member of the Diversity Coalition. She is currently applying to graduate school in the field of Women’s and Gender Studies. Under the supervision of Bishop’s professors, Dr. Jean Manore and Dr. Cheryl Gosselin, and with the financial support of the Eastern Townships Research Centre, Ms. Tarasoff had the opportunity to delve into the Margaret Owens archival holdings, the Brome County Historical Association archives and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Library and Archives, in addition to having the chance to review archival material collected by Margaret Owens, Nina Owens’ granddaughter. Ms. Tarasoff’s spent a year exploring the life and work of Nina May (Pickel) Owens and it can clearly be seen in the article below that the young 21st century student connected and indeed fell in love with the 19th century Eastern Townships artist. —Editor ABSTRACT Nina May (PicKeL) Owens, one of Canada’s earLiest women artists, was born in BoLton Centre, Quebec, on June 16, 1869. Though few have heard her name and seen her work, Nina’s life and experiences as both a woman in the domestic sphere and as an artist provide a weaLth of KnowLedge about women and women artists of her time.

  • On Art Clubs and Classrooms: Navigating Artist/Teacher Identities by Looking at Anne Savage and Arthur Lismer
    On Art Clubs and Classrooms: Navigating Artist/Teacher Identities by Looking at Anne Savage and Arthur Lismer Joanna Black, University of Manitoba This article is dedicated to: students I have taught who are on the brink of pursuing careers in art education while desiring to foster their professional art practice, and Leah Sherman, and her part in the enriched experiences I had in the 1980s at Concordia University and the Museum of Fine Arts in Montreal. Through her, I was touched by the legacies of both Anne Savage and Arthur Lismer. “Do you think I can still ‘make’ my art when I teach?’ ask many soon to be teachers on the cusp of graduating from Bachelor of Education programs. They are uncertain about their ability to maintain their emerging artistic practice while teaching, and it is fitting to ask this key question given the two key role models seen by today’s graduates. On the one hand, their own university studio teachers are a dominant model representing the leading edge of art practice through the few tenure track positions at Schools of Art within higher education at the university. These young professional artists simultaneously maintain their ongoing artwork and exhibitions while having a career as a university art instructor/professor and it is expected and indeed vital that they continue art production. The second model, and the most immediate career path for most graduates in Art Education is within the kindergarten to grade twelve (K-12) public and alternative teaching profession, where there are few, if any professional expectations, pressures (or support) for K-12 art teachers to maintain a professional art practice.
