It is informed by the writings of George Steiner, who advanced a typology of difficult forms in poetry. The major works of Jack Chambers (The Hart of London), Michael Snow (La Region Centrale), and Joyce Wieland (Reason Over Passion) illustrate the ways in which a poetic vanguard in cinema is anchored in an aesthetic of difficulty.

  • John Boyle, Greg Curnoe and Joyce Wieland: Erotic Art and English Canadian Nationalism
    John Boyle, Greg Curnoe and Joyce Wieland: Erotic Art and English Canadian Nationalism by Matthew Purvis A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Cultural Mediations Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2020, Matthew Purvis i Abstract This dissertation concerns the relation between eroticism and nationalism in the work of a set of English Canadian artists in the mid-1960s-70s, namely John Boyle, Greg Curnoe, and Joyce Wieland. It contends that within their bodies of work there are ways of imagining nationalism and eroticism that are often formally or conceptually interrelated, either by strategy or figuration, and at times indistinguishable. This was evident in the content of their work, in the models that they established for interpreting it and present in more and less overt forms in some of the ways of imagining an English Canadian nationalism that surrounded them. The dissertation contextualizes the three artists in the terms of erotic art prevalent in the twentieth century and makes a case for them as part of a uniquely Canadian mode of decadence. Constructing my case largely from the published and unpublished writing of the three subjects and how these played against their reception, I have attempted to elaborate their artistic models and processes, as well as their understandings of eroticism and nationalism, situating them within the discourses on English Canadian nationalism and its potentially morbid prospects. Rather than treating this as a primarily cultural or socio-political issue, it is treated as both an epistemic and formal one.

Born in Lethbridge, Alberta, Burton moved to Ontario in 1950 on a scholarship to Pickering College, Newmarket, where he attended Fred Hagan’s art classes. Burton’s education continued at the Ontario College of Art (graduated 1956); the University of Southern California (1955) and the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, Maine (1959). He worked at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation as a senior graphic designer, 1957-60. Burton achieved artistic fame in the mid-1960s with his controversial paintings of female undergarments (giving rise to the term “Garterbeltmania”) and abstractions inspired by genitalia. He was represented by the Isaacs Gallery, Toronto, through the 1960s and 1970s, and became associated with other gallery artists. He was a founding member of the Artists’ Jazz Band, in which he played saxophone. Burton worked extensively as an illustrator throughout this period. His career as an art educator began with his tenure as Chairman of Drawing & Painting Department at the Ontario College of Art, 1970-71; he was Director of the New School of Art 1971-1977, and a founding faculty member and President of Arts’ Sake inc.

  • Big Av's Art World
    Big Av's art world SARAH MILROY From Wednesday's Globe and Mail Published Wednesday, May 25, 2005 8:41AM EDT Last updated Tuesday, Apr. 07, 2009 9:38PM EDT 0 Comments Print In the current Toronto exhibition Regarding Av, a small cartoon- like drawing on brown butcher paper from 1964 is on display, the handiwork of the artist Dennis Burton. Burton was a key contender in the rambunctious Isaacs Gallery stable, and his cartoon imagines the prominent players in the Toronto art scene as a school of fish, swimming toward lapping waves of dollar bills, over which he has inscribed the phrase "international market." At the centre of the composition, Burton has placed an enormous whale bearing the distinct countenance of Avrom Isaacs, Toronto's leading art dealer of the day, and around him, a school of his gallery artists (Michael Snow, Joyce Wieland, Gordon Rayner, Richard Gorman, Graham Coughtry, William Ronald, Tony Urquhart and so on), each one a skillful caricature. Above them, a school of sharks represents the critics: Robert Fulford, Paul Duval, Betty Kilbourn and Pearl McCarthy. In retrospect, the drawing is bittersweet. As fate would have it, few of these fish managed to swim further south than Lake Ontario. (Only Snow did and, briefly, Ronald.) But something perhaps more important did get achieved in those years; the dawning of a sense that Toronto was a place where significant art was made, talked about, bought and cherished. Burton's drawing expresses the bond of a creative community making history together, with Isaacs at its core. This summer, the 79-year-old Isaacs, who retired in 2001, is being feted with Isaacs Seen, which consists of four interconnected shows.

Cheetham Critically and financially, Jack Chambers was one of the most successful Canadian artists of his time. Born in London, Ontario, in 1931, he had an insatiable desire to travel and to become a professional artist. Chambers trained in Madrid in the 1950s, learning the classical traditions of Spain and Europe. He returned to London in 1961 and was integral to the city’s regionalist art movement. Chambers was diagnosed with leukemia in 1969 and died in 1978. 3 JACK CHAMBERS Life & Work by Mark A. Cheetham EARLY YEARS John Richard Chambers was born in Victoria Hospital, London, Ontario, on March 25, 1931. (He signed his name “John” until around 1970, and he is often referred to as John Chambers.) His parents, Frank R. and Beatrice (McIntyre) Chambers, came from the area. His mother’s family farmed nearby; his father was a local welder. He had one sister, Shirley, less than a year older than he was. Chambers vividly related memories of his very happy childhood in his autobiography.1 Chambers’s mother, Beatrice (née McIntyre), and his father, Frank R. Chambers. Chambers’s art education started early and well. In 1944 at Sir Adam Beck Collegiate Institute in London, he was taught by the painter Selwyn Dewdney (1909–1979), who encouraged Chambers to exhibit his early paintings.
