En 1919, la peintre canadienne Mary Riter Hamilton est partie vivre dans le nord de la France, seule dans une cabane en tôle, parmi les ouvriers qui nettoyaient les débris de guerre sur le front de l'Ouest. Pendant trois ans, elle a peint l'horrible paysage dé- vasté qui l'entourait, tout en restant attentive à la beauté.

Brandon: Colville to Goble Colville to Goble Some Thoughts on the Evolving Place of Photography in Canadian Military Art LAURA BRANDON Abstract: This article focuses on the photographic work of two Canadian military artists whose careers are separated by half a century. Alex Colville (1920–2013) used photography in his work but rarely mentioned it and never publicly exhibited or acknowledged it. Elaine Goble (born 1956) bases all her work on photography, engages explicitly with it, acknowledges it, exhibits and donates it, but does not consider herself a professional photographer. An exploration of these two artists’ relationship with photography sheds some light on how attitudes to the medium have changed in recent decades. Photography’s new prominence in the digital age has affected artists, photographers, institutions, collectors, as well as art and photo historians, and encouraged reconsideration of past practices. WENTY-ONE years ago, in 1995, I published an article in this Tjournal entitled “Genesis of a Painting: Alex Colville’s War Drawings.”1 My piece focused on the relationship between the artist’s works on paper and his finished canvases.
