Canadian Magazine Illustrators at Home and in the United States, 1880-1960 by Shannon Jaleen Grove Doctor of Philosophy in Art History and Criticism Stony Brook University 2014 This dissertation analyzes nationalisms in the work of Canadian magazine illustrators in Toronto and New York, 1880 to 1960. Using a continentalist approach—rather than the nationalist lens often employed by historians of Canadian art—I show the existence of an integrated, joint North American visual culture. Drawing from primary sources and biography, I document the social, political, corporate, and communication networks that illustrators traded in. I focus on two common visual tropes of the day—that of the pretty girl and that of wilderness imagery.

The museum also houses the largest collection of works by J.C. Leyendecker, James Montgomery Flagg and Charles Dana Gibson.

  • Shoreline Indigenous Connections
    Shoreline Public Art presents Shoreline Indigenous Connections Shoreline Public Art recognizes and acknowledges the presence and ongoing contributions of the original residents of the land where we place artworks in public space. This area remains the home to many Salish indigenous communities from around the Salish Sea region, including the locally affiliated Duwamish, Suquamish, Snoqualmie, Tulalip, and many others who trace their ancestry through a variety of different tribal affiliations. Please join us in honoring these ancestral grounds by expressing gratitude for the people who have cared for this land across the generations and help us celebrate the resilience and strength that all indigenous communities continue to show throughout our region and beyond. Of the approximately 45 pieces of permanent public art in the outdoor collection in Shoreline, about half are owned by the City and half are owned by other entities; we celebrate the work of six in particular today that reflect the ongoing contribution of indigenous artists. This guide is meant to serve as a living document for future growth and additions; it will be displayed on the Public Art webpage and be available for download as a PDF as well as an on-demand guide accessible through QR codes posted in various parks and sites in the city. A final note: As a living document, this guide is a work in progress and will benefit from future corrections and revisions. We tried to identify Native artists by tribal affiliation, but it should be kept in mind that Native identity is a complex kaleidoscope that Euroamericans attempted to simplify and reduce.

With guest speakers Kwakwee Baker is a freestyle, Contemporary West Coast Multi-Media Artist. Born of Squamish, Kwaguilth, Tlingit/Haida and Celtic heritage, with strong traditional roots from Alert Bay and Kingcome Inlet areas of British Columbia Canada. He incorporates all his world travels and experiences in his artistic cultural representation, with an expansive spiritual flow and visionary dream-like impressions. His upbringing in the Potlatch ceremonies and fortunate mentoring, gave him an early understanding of the complexities of form design, history, meaning and of his rights to family crests. Zee Kwakwee accredits his father Frank Baker and mother Thais Sewell, and family friend Tom Doucette, for his contemporary foundation and inspiration. Accomplished illustrator, animator, graphic designer and instructor, Kwakwee is inspired with a continuous drive to push the boundaries of new and innovative platforms of the old form line.
