Summary:
"Founded in 1920, the
Group
of
Seven
has been capturing the imagination of Canadians for nearly a century, helping to shape our national identity with their stunning landscape
paintings
representing every corner of the country. As the one-hundred-year anniversary of the original
Group
's formation approaches, The
Group
of
Seven
Reimagined
takes an unorthodox look at twenty-one
paintings
from the
Group
's vast oeuvre, extracting narrative from landscape and uniting Canada's most beloved works of art with some of its most talented names in
contemporary
literary fiction. This gorgeous full-colour art book includes works by the original
Group
of Seven--Franklin Carmichael, Lawren Harris, A.Y. Jackson, Frank Johnston, Arthur Lismer, J.E.H. MacDonald, and Frederick H. Varley--as well as later members A.J. Casson, L.L. FitzGerald, and Edwin Holgate, plus artists closely associated with the
Group
, including Tom Thomson and Emily Carr. Each painting is accompanied by a short narrative--or "flash fiction" piece--written by critically acclaimed, award-winning authors, including Carol Bruneau, Waubgeshig Rice, Tamas Dobozy, and JJ Lee. Rather than analyze or interpret the art, these literary masters look deep inside each painting, crafting new layers of plot, setting, and emotion that feel at once entirely fresh and completely at home alongside these early-twentieth-century works. This unique spin on the
Group
of
Seven
is sure to inspire and delight generations of Canadians."
