  • Keep on Going Frank & Victor Cicansky
    Keep On Going Frank & Victor Cicansky This exhibition features the paintings, sculptures and craft objects of folk artist, Frank Cicansky, in dialogue with the ceramics and sculptural work of his son, internationally renowned artist, Victor Cicansky. The presentation of these artists’ works together offers an opportunity to consider the shared values, creative drives and narratives of memory, place and origin that inform both of their artistic practices. Together these works reflect a sincere and compelling response to place, offering immigrant narratives of first and second generation settler Canadians in southern Saskatchewan, while also exploring the influential connections between our province’s folk art and funk art genres. Frank Cicansky’s work not only reflects his skilled craftsmanship, from his training as a blacksmith and wheelwright in Romania before he immigrated in 1926, but offers narratives of his experiences of settlement in his new country, in the Wood Mountain area south of Moose Jaw. Carvings and wooden sculptures of pioneer life depict horses and wagons of threshing teams he would have worked on and the barns and houses he would have built, while the paintings, including a series titled In the Thirties, highlight the hardships of settling in southern Saskatchewan. Known as a great storyteller, Frank chose to depict these memories visually in paint, while incorporating mixed media and text. He also shared the memories behind each image verbally, having them recorded in audio, which have been transcribed in his voice, in his spoken vernacular, and included on the exhibition labels. In these folk images with incorporated text, we see depictions of farmsteads abandoned during the Depression by desperate families with their belongings piled in a wagon, a dead horse, an empty well and clouds of grasshoppers.

  • 1998-99 ANNUAL REPORT Dedicated to the Memory of Jane Turnbull Evans
    1998-99 ANNUAL REPORT Dedicated to the memory of Jane Turnbull Evans On July 18, 1998, Saskatchewan’s arts community lost one of its strongest advocates when Jane Turnbull Evans, employed with the Saskatchewan Arts Board for over 12 years, initially in the capacity of Visual Arts Officer and then as Keeper of Collections, was tragically killed in a car accident. Jane’s vision was to see a provincial foundation for the arts in Saskatchewan. As of March 31, 1999, a memorial fund established in her memory generated donations of $75,370. These funds will be held in trust and transferred to the newly formed Foundation for the Arts upon its establishment. In honour of Jane, the Saskatchewan Arts Board’s Award for Innovation in Craft was subsequently renamed at the request of the Saskatchewan Craft Council to The Jane Turnbull Evans Memorial Award for Innovation in Craft. Jane’s dedication to the people of Saskatchewan and the arts remains an ongoing inspiration to us all. On behalf of all the individuals whose lives were touched by your presence, thank you Jane. Saskatchewan Arts Board The Honourable L. Haverstock Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan Your Honour: The Saskatchewan Arts Board is pleased to submit its annual report for the fiscal year April 1, 1998 to March 31, 1999.

  • From the MJM&AG Permanent Collection Bruce Anderson, Lorne
    Vessel From the MJM&AG Permanent Collection Bruce Anderson, Lorne Beug, Mel Bolen, Donovan Chester, Victor Cicansky, Zach Dietrich, Cara Gay Driscoll, Charley Farrero, Robert Froese, Folmer Hansen, Ray Hearn, Franklin Heisler, Beth Hone, Ann James, Sandra Ledingham, Marilyn Levine, Jeannie Mah, Judy McNaughton, Don Parker, Wendy Parsons, Brian Ring, Anita Rocamora, David Ross, Peter Rupchan, Christy Schweiger, Jack Sures, Martin Tagseth, David Thauberger, Judy Tryon, Zane Wilcox, Randy Woolsey, Russell Yuristy Featuring a survey of historic and contemporary ceramic works by Saskatchewan artists in our permanent collection, the exhibition explores the vessel form, from the more conventional to the sculptural. Defined as a container that is characterized anthropomorphically by its lip, neck, body, belly and foot, the vessel is the principle ceramic form. Whether an open vessel in the form of a cup, bowl or vase, or closed, like a bottle or sculpture of the human body as vessel, the exhibition presents diverse variations and playful interpretations of this form. Vessel in its diversity offers an overview of the development of ceramics in Saskatchewan, spanning from the wood-fired vessels of Peter Rupchan, our province’s first known potter, in the 1920s, to the Regina Clay movement’s sincere engagement and experimentation with the clay medium, to creative and playful expressions of prairie regionalism of the Funk Art period to contemporary innovation in clay. There are a number of factors that led to an embrace of ceramics in Saskatchewan beginning in the 1950s and nurtured a creative explosion in clay in the 1960s and 70s. With a vision for developing a professional craft industry in the province, the Saskatchewan Arts Board supported adult education programs in craft, as well as purchased a building in Fort Qu’Appelle in 1954 to house an artist in residency program, where a full-time working craftsperson could make work and engage the community in the arts.

  • A PRAIRIE VERNACULAR: Folk & Contemporary Art Narratives of Life on the Canadian Prairies
    A PRAIRIE VERNACULAR: Folk & Contemporary Art Narratives of Life on the Canadian Prairies The exhibition, A Prairie Vernacular, examines historic and contemporary representations of the vernacular in artistic practice on the Canadian prairies, considering the relationship of folk art to contemporary art produced in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Vernacular art is largely defined as a genre of art made by individuals untrained in the visual arts, who may not even identify themselves as artists. Artists represented in the exhibition include historic and contemporary untrained or self - taught artists, as well as academically trained artists whose works speak to the vernacular, the locality and history of the Prairie. These representations of the vernacular not only adopt the materials, methods and/or motivations of a folk aesthetic, but speak to shared contexts and subject matter, either reflecting on memories and histories of life on the prairies or presenting visual narratives rife with humour, fantasy, myth, politics, religion, and the prairie gothic. The relationship on the Prairies between folk or vernacular art and contemporary art that engages in the vernacular has been complex and, perhaps, somewhat symbiotic, stemming from a shared interest in Prairie experience, culture, environment and sensibilities as compelling sources for artistic practice. While the emergence of vernacular art in galleries and the art market dates back to 19th century France to the symbolist work of Henri Rousseau, the significance of vernacular art in western Canada became recognized in the 1960s and 1970s by curators, contemporary artists, art dealers and collectors, who appreciated, what they considered to be, its honesty, integrity and raw expression.

Seeing their work solely as documentation of settler history misstates and discredits the complexity of their vision. These artists flew solo and each reinvented a discourse about the immediate circumstances of their lives, con- ceiving diaristic texts that chart a complicated map of a land that still remains largely unknowable to Euro-Canadians.1 Perhaps the inconclusiveness of the art of Brunst, Harbuz, Keevil, McCargar, Mould- ing, Spencer and Wyers contributed to its lasting appeal. Their works became promi- nent in the 1970s and 1980s, when culture in Saskatchewan became preoccupied by local knowledge—in reaction against modernism’s internationalism. That was also a moment of self-awareness when the province recognized it actually had an engross- ing if contested culture. Suddenly, the idiosyncratic objects created by artists working outside the centre became a source of insight for visual artists such as Joe Fafard, David Thauberger and Victor Cicansky and curators such as Wayne Morgan, Peter White, Joan Borsa and Dan Ring.
