Dear list, I am pleased to announce the publication of a new book devoted to selected topics in Canadian modernist painting, including a chapter, authored by me, exploring the bergsonian sources of multi-media artist Bertram Brooker (1888-1955): the first Canadian to exhibit abstract art in a solo exhibition in Canada (1927) and the first recipient of the Governor General's Award for Fiction (1936 – it was then called the Lord Tweedsmuir Award) as well as an early scenarist of silent films (ca. 1912-13 -- for the Brooklyn-based Vitagraph Company of America).
