The professional lives of many of the artists in the study group exemplified a new approach for women to the independent and active organization and promotion of their own careers. Implementing the theoretical writing of feminist art historians such as Griselda Pollock, this study demonstrates how the artists of the study group resisted gendered restrictions in art practice, including the gendering of criticism, subject matter rules, and other professional barriers. In their aspirations to lead self-determined, professional lives as independent single women, artists such as Laura Muntz, Sydney Strickland Tully, Harriet Ford, Elizabeth McGillivray Knowles, and Florence Carlyle were champions of a new ideal for women's working and private lives. The characteristics of their lives were those of the New Woman. During their lifetimes they contributed to a new model of the artistic professional in Canada, and in addition were modern role models for all Canadian women aspiring to a career. This study initiates a comparative analysis of the professional art practices of the study group artists. It examines how the artists of the study group reacted to the challenges and opportunities of the time, to train, to establish a professional practice, run a studio, decide on what to produce and how to market the results to the public. I begin by charting the areas of education and the climate of professionalism. Subsequent chapters focus on identity, political engagement, and marriage and partnership choices. The second half of the thesis focuses on the studio, art production and exhibiting strategies, dealers and ii clients, and critical reception. This research reveals how many Canadian women artists of the era expanded their art practice into areas that were traditionally dominated by men The study has unearthed a previously unexplored and unacknowledged diversity of art production by the study group artists; a diversity that includes both "high" and "low" art forms. These artists worked not only as painters and sculptors, but obtained commercial commissions as muralists, interior decorators, editors, and founders of arts-related magazines, business franchises, and schools, as illustrators, writers, and cartoonists, and in the applied and craft arts as potters, jewelry, fabric, and furniture designers, makers, and entrepreneurs. iii Acknowledgements It is a great pleasure to acknowledge all those who have contributed to the writing of this dissertation.

  • Borderline Research
    Borderline Research Histories of Art between Canada and the United States, c. 1965–1975 Adam Douglas Swinton Welch A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Adam Douglas Swinton Welch 2019 Borderline Research Histories of Art between Canada and the United States, c. 1965–1975 Adam Douglas Swinton Welch Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto 2019 Abstract Taking General Idea’s “Borderline Research” request, which appeared in the first issue of FILE Megazine (1972), as a model, this dissertation presents a composite set of histories. Through a comparative case approach, I present eight scenes which register and enact larger political, social, and aesthetic tendencies in art between Canada and the United States from 1965 to 1975. These cases include Jack Bush’s relationship with the critic Clement Greenberg; Brydon Smith’s first decade as curator at the National Gallery of Canada (1967–1975); the exhibition New York 13 (1969) at the Vancouver Art Gallery; Greg Curnoe’s debt to New York Neo-dada; Joyce Wieland living in New York and making work for exhibition in Toronto (1962–1972); Barry Lord and Gail Dexter’s involvement with the Canadian Liberation Movement (1970–1975); the use of surrogates and copies at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (1967–1972); and the Eternal Network performance event, Decca Dance, in Los Angeles (1974). Relying heavily on my work in institutional archives, artists’ fonds, and research interviews, I establish chronologies and describe events. By the close of my study, in the mid-1970s, the movement of art and ideas was eased between Canada and the United States, anticipating the advent of a globalized art world.

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.
