Business Plan C A N A D I A N C U L T U R E A R T & D E C O R THE GROUP OF SEVEN The Group of Seven were a group of painters founded in 1920 and ended in 1933. The original Group of Seven included Franklin Carmichael Lawren Harris A.Y. Jackson Franz Johnston Arthur Lismer J.E.H. MacDonald and F.H. Varley. They painted brightly coloured landscape paintings of the Canadian Shield and the boreal forest. They used simple forms, and presented themselves as Canada's firs tnational school of painters, which made many of the current artists of the day angry. Today, their images are used to represent Canada's strength and independence and helped establish a national vision of Canada. THE INDIAN GROUP OF SEVEN The Indian Group of Seven was made up of Jackson Beardy, Eddy Cobiness, Alex Janvier, Norval Morrisseau, Daphne Odjig, Carl Ray and Joseph Sanchez. They originally started meeting in the early 1970s where they would discuss issues related to prejudice in the art community. In 1974 they formally joined together to work for inclusion. Together, they helped bring Indignous art to the general Canadian population.

  • Analyse D'œuvres Du Style Artistique Woodland
    TRACES DE PEINTURE ARTIDAVI_VF1_Fiche1 Analyse d’œuvres du style artistique Woodland Norval Morrisseau est considéré comme le père du style artistique Woodland. Au cours des années 1970, il s’est affilié à une coopérative d’artistes, desquels certains ont adopté des aspects de ce langage artistique du style Woodland. Par la suite, il y a eu une relève formée d’une nouvelle génération de peintres qui ont trouvé leur inspiration dans ce style, et ce courant se poursuit encore aujourd’hui. Dans cet exercice, tu exploreras des œuvres de ces deux groupes d’artistes : ceux qui étaient à l’origine, et ceux de la relève. Citation de Daphne Odjig : « Nous sommes un peuple vivant et une culture vivante. Je suis convaincue que notre destin est de progresser, d’expérimenter et de développer de nouveaux modes d’expression, comme le font tous les peuples. Je n’ai pas l’intention de rester figée dans le passé. Je n’suis pas une pièce de musée. » Source : Les dessins et peintures de Daphne Odjig : Une exposition rétrospective, Bonnie Devine, Robert Houle et Duke Redbird, 2007. Consigne Tu analyseras deux œuvres, une de chaque groupe. Les œuvres du premier groupe sont celles d’artistes qui ont côtoyé Norval Morrisseau et comme lui, ont adopté un langage artistique similaire. Leurs couleurs plutôt ternes avec l’ocre très présent rappellent celles des pictogrammes et peintures rupestres sur les rochers dans la région des Grands Lacs où ce style est né. Bien que ces œuvres présentent des ressemblances, le style de plusieurs de ces artistes se transformera dans une forme personnelle, surtout à partir des années 1980, quand on verra émerger l’usage de couleurs éclatantes.

  • Windspeaker February 1996
    --.11., QUOTABLE QUOTE "National Chief Mercredi's actions and statements are an insult to the chiefs." - Manitoba Grand Chief Phil Fontaine '2 00 where applicable PUBLICATION MAIL REGISTRATION k2177 13 No. IO FEBRUARY 1996 Canada's National Aboriginal News Publication Volume POSTAGE PAID AT EDMONTON Thumbs up for treaties VANCOUVER Negotiation is the only acceptable and civilized way for Native people and the government to deal with the complex issues of Abo- riginal title and rights in the province of British Columbia, said Chief Joe Mathias. He was responding to a new study, conducted by ARA Con- sulting Group of Vancouver, which found land claim treaties have a positive effect in regards to economic opportunity, community development and improved relations between Aboriginal and non- Aboriginal people. "The strength of this report is that it provides an independent and balanced perspective of the issues, challenges and opportuni- ties of treaty- making," said Mathias. "It is a critically important and timely document, one we expect will generate constructive public debate in the months ahead." The study found that modern day treaties have not caused the kind of disruption and disharmony their critics contend they do, but neither do they offer instant solutions. A summary report pre- pared by Ken Coates of the University of Northern British Colum- bia said the resolution of long- standing disagreements, through negotiation rather than through legal or politically imposed con- ditions, will liberate people from the contentious and difficult de- bates of the past. "These often heated discussions - about colonialism, disloca- tion, sovereignty, ownership, and the legitimacy of Native land claims - generate a great deal of rhetoric and anger but rarely pro- vide lasting solutions," concludes the summary.
