PRESS RELEASE H PRESS RELEASE h NEWS RELEASE - November 21, 2001 ART GALLERY OF NOVA SCOTIA RECEIVES MAJOR GIFT FROM SOBEYS HALIFAX - Sobeys Inc. has donated to the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia a major work of art by Canadian artist Ivan Eyre. On November 21, at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, the painting was presented by Sir Graham Day and Donald Sobey, on behalf of Sobeys Inc. of Stellarton, Nova Scotia, to AGNS Chair of Acquisitions Committee Fred Fountain and Director Bernard Riordon. "The painting is a welcome addition to the Gallery's growing collection of contemporary Canadian art", said Riordon. "We are grateful to Sobeys Inc. for this generous gift that extends the range of our collection and acknowledges this important Canadian artist." The painting will be on display in the LeRoy and Marguerite Zwicker Gallery (5) at AGNS, which features Canadian painting and sculpture. The painting is titled Mountain Meadow. Painted by Ivan Eyre in 1989, the work is acrylic paint on canvas, 56" x 120". The painting has been in the collection of Sobeys Inc. since 1998. Previously the painting was owned by The Oshawa Group, Etobicoke, Ontario. Ivan Eyre was born in Tullymet, Saskatchewan in 1935. He started his art studies at the Saskatoon Technical Collegiate at the age of fourteen (14) and continued his education at the University of Saskatchewan and the University of Manitoba. While studying for his Masters at the University of North Dakota, he began a long and distinguished teaching career. Upon his return to Canada he took a teaching job at the University of Manitoba where he was appointed Full Professor (painting and drawing) and where he stayed until his retirement in 1993. Throughout his teaching career Eyre remained a constant painter whose work is highly prized. His minutely detailed landscapes have won him wide acclaim and recognition, and in 1974, Eyre became a Member of the Royal Canadian Academy.

Four core units present fundamental art knowledge through themes based on self and environmental exploration. Media and techniques used include drawing, collage, sculpture and ceramics. Four secondary units are enrichment oriented. Maskmaking expands on self-exploration by examining different faces humans present to establish identity and communication. Mass media introduces students to concepts of advertisement communication. Differences between need and want are explored. Landscape is studied as interpretations of environment as seen, remembered, or imagined. Investigation of the future allows for exploration of various scenarios with a wide variety of materials. The teaching method employed is problem solving/inquiry. Idea journals and portfolios are identified and used as evaluation tools. Appendices and bibliographies are included.

  • George Glenn: Process of Making Art Becomes a Positive Force
    George Glenn: Process of making art becomes a positive force Commissioned by the Saskatchewan Arts Alliance “Paradise” is how artist George Glenn describes Saskatchewan. Born in Regina’s Lakeview neighborhood, “right next to the prairie”, Glenn remembers his boyhood there when the “tumbleweed would roll down McCallum Avenue”. Today he’s a visual artist who makes his home in Prince Albert, where he has been working as an artist and teacher for more than 25 years. Glenn has found that Saskatchewan is a place where he can create, exhibit, and enjoyed a community of friends who are, in his words, “artists of life”, though they may not necessarily be working in art Glenn mostly stays close to home, but he speaks of “trips”, “travels” and “space”, which seemed to be recurrent themes in his life and art. In 1959 when he was a teen, and his interest in art had already surfaced, Glenn’s family moved to Winnipeg, where he went to Grant Park High School and the University of Manitoba. In 1970 after receiving a degree in fine arts, he moved to Alberta and worked as a curatorial assistant at the Glenbow Museum for two years. His next move took him to the master of fine arts program at the University of Cincinnati where he graduated in 1974. He says his most significant influences were teachers he encountered at the University of Manitoba. Alex Bruning, Ken Lochhead, George Swinton and Ivan Eyre, though very different in their paintings styles, all “demonstrated enthusiasm about the making of art”. The enthusiasm was infectious for Glenn.

By the time of his death, he was one of the most commercially successful artists in Canada. Forty years after Kurelek’s premature death, his paintings remain coveted by collectors. They represent an unconventional, unsettling, and controversial record of global anxiety in the twentieth century. Like no other artist, Kurelek twins the nostalgic and apocalyptic, his oeuvre a simultaneous vision of Eden and Hell. 3 William Kurelek Life & Work by Andrew Kear Fathers and Sons William Kurelek was born on a grain farm north of Willingdon, Alberta, to Mary (née Huculak) and Dmytro Kurelek in 1927. Mary’s parents had arrived in the region east of Edmonton around the turn of the century, in the first wave of Ukrainian immigration to Canada. These farming families, from what is known today as the Western Ukraine, transformed Canada’s harsh western prairie into a flourishing agricultural region and created an important market for the eastern manufacturing industry. The Huculaks established a homestead near Whitford Lake, then part of the Northwest Territories, in a larger Ukrainian settlement. Dmytro arrived in Canada in 1923 with the second major wave of Ukrainian immigration.
