"Dispels the traditional view that historical objects are artifacts and separate from contemporary Aboriginal practice. Rather, Aboriginal art from the late 1800s through the present is merged to highlight the ongoing links to tradition, history and culture. Honouring tradition brings new perspectives to both historical and contemporary works and creates a dialogue around the complexity of Aboriginal art from the northern plains and subarctic regions of Canada"--Page [21]

Higher states : Lawren Harris and his American contemporaries by Roald Nasgaard( Book )

3 editions published in 2017 in English and held by 89 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Lawren S. Harris is best known for his iconic landscape paintings that declare a sense of cool Canadian resilience. Yet, in the 1920s, an audacious and more colourful interior world began to emerge in his work, and by 1934, he had taken a seemingly unexpected turn toward a transnational career in abstract painting. The social, intellectual, and aesthetic milieu of American transcendentalism shaped a movement of abstract art across North America. Inspired by the ideas of Kandinsky and informed by the writings of Emerson and Whitman, Harris and his North American contemporaries - Georgia O'Keeffe, Marsden Hartley, Katherine Dreier, Raymond Jonson - turned to abstraction to express higher states of consciousness. As Harris's career progressed, as he ascended from mountain tops to inner states of mind, he sought greater and more ethereal spiritual heights. This magnificent volume features reproductions of more than 75 paintings by Harris and his contemporaries. Essays by Roald Nasgaard and Gwendolyn Owens inve
