This volume depicts Emily Carr's life from her birth in Victoria, B.C. in 1871 to her death in 1945, in 12 thoroughly researched chapters. Also includes a list of plates and photographs, reference notes, and bibliography. Contains numerous beautiful illustrations, many of them full-page. A wonderful introduction to the artist and her art. Flawless prose, splendid reproduction, handsome design-an apt showcase for the artist who painted some of Canada's most magnificent paintings.This book represents the culmination of Doris Shadbolt's long fascination with the work of Carr, a painter she views as one of the strongest and most individual of Canadian artists. It reflects more than a decade of meticulous research, and excerpts form Carr's own prolific writings have been skillfully woven into the narrative, combining with exquisite reproductions of over 200 paintings, charcoals and drawings, two thirds of them in colour, almost all of them specially photographed for this book.Never swallowed by the mainstream in art. Emily Carr remained extraordinarily loyal to her inner vision. The world she created lingers persuasively in the Canadian psyche., University of Washington Press, 1987

Carr was born in Victoria in 1871, the year that British Columbia became a province, and remained on Vancouver Island until her death in 1945. Though Shadbolt insists that isolation was a defining, if often painful, fact of Carr's life as an artist, she also carefully traces the impact of Carr's regular excursions--to art schools in San Francisco and London, and on painting trips to Canada's East Coast, Alaska, and France. Though the 12 essays take up roughly half of The Art of Emily Carr‘s 200 pages, they function primarily to intensify our appreciation of the mostly full-colour, full-page reproductions of Carr's pulsing, earthy images. Shadbolt identifies Carr's two great painterly themes as "a unique and vanishing Indian culture, and a powerful coastal nature." The curvy solidity of Carr's totem pole paintings is impressive enough ("You must be absolutely honest and true in the depicting a totem for meaning is attached to every line," Carr has written), but for many it will be the rain forest paintings, their dark sensuous mingling of figure and ground, that will leave the most lasting impression. --Russell Prather
