Lake Superior Art Association Art Talk: The Group of Seven

In the 1920s a group of adventurous artists sought out pristine wilderness landscapes. They believed that a distinctly Canadian art style could be developed through direct contact with nature. The Group of Seven is best known for its paintings inspired by the Canadian landscape, and for initiating the first major Canadian national art movement. The artists in this group painted together from 1920-1933, mostly plein air, in a style that challenged European traditions and gained global recognition. 

Learn more about the Group of Seven at Lake Superior Art Association’s Art Talk on Tuesday, January 30, beginning at 6:30, in the Shiras Room at Peter White Public Library. Lynn Buckland-Brown will be the presenter. The program is open to LSAA members and the Public. There is no fee to attend.
