22 WINNIPEG ART GALLERY Cathy Daley CANADIAN, B. 1955 Untitled, 2006. Pastel and archival print on vellum, 60.9 x 48 cm. Gift of the Artist. 2013-189

Historically, Cathy Daley has made a significant contribution towards the development of post- 1980 feminist concerns in contemporary Canadian art practices—in particular, with what might be described as the pluralistic post-modern period in Canada and the emergence of “second generation” feminist concerns, and a “subversive attitude.” Her drawings examine notions of feminine identity and form. Beginning in the early 1980s, Daley carved out a unique and distinctive visual language though drawing—her primary studio practice—with imagery that related to the female dress and body, and concerns with what can be described as private and public space. Untitled drawing collages are unique in that Daley incorporated elements of collage into her drawings, distinguishing them from her ongoing drawing practice and recognizable style.

Jules Olitski AMERICAN, BORN IN UKRAINE, 1922–2007 Harlow Flow, 1964. Oil miscible acrylic on canvas, 210.8 x 203.2 cm. Gift of Fredrik S. Eaton. 2013-114 © Jules Olitski / SODRAC, Montréal / VAGA, New York (2014)

One of the first and most celebrated practitioners of Colour Field abstraction, Jules Olitski immigrated as an infant to the United States from Soviet Ukraine in 1923. He studied art in New York and, after the Second World War, in Paris with Ossip Zadkine. Back in the United States, he befriended the influential critic Clement Greenberg and began teaching at Bennington College in Vermont. In 1964, the same year that Harlow Flow was painted, Olitski led the Emma Lake Artists’ Workshop in Saskatchewan. Unlike Abstract Expressionists like Jackson Pollock, Colour Field painters like Olitski consciously sought to remove any reference to painterly gesture. Their practice was deeply informed by Greenberg’s aesthetic ideas, which emphasized material and formal issues over and above those of subject matter and personal expression.

Lasker 2013-206 is interested in illustrating tensions between conflicting values within this tradition, between abstraction and representation, gesture and geometry, preparatory study and finished work. In a sense, he mines Esther Warkov the visual grammar of Modernism, its reliance on specific sorts of CANADIAN, B. 1941 graphic signs—grids, squiggles, patches—as a way of highlighting Untitled, c. 1995 graphite, coloured pencil, pastel on how a painting is constructed. Lasker has a very particular way of paper, 60 x 81 cm working. He first creates small maquettes, such as this untitled study, Gift of an anonymous donor which he then precisely transcribes into large-scale canvases. The 2013-137 maquettes, which Lasker describes as “handmade circuit boards, programs that ignite possible pictorial realities,” reveal the frozen spontaneity that results from the artist’s method of invention.

Shuvinai Ashoona has lived her entire life in the community of Cape Dorset on and is a member of one of the most prominent artistic Inuit families. She began making drawings in the early 1900s and quickly distinguished herself as an artist with an unconventional vision. She has had her work featured in many exhibitions since then and is the subject of a 2012 film by Marcia Connelly. In recent years, her drawings simultaneously chronicle the past (Titanic history) and the present (rock band on deck). This is the first of Ashoona’s large-scale drawings to be acquired by the Gallery.
