Abstract
The Indian cultures that once flourished in the Pacific Northwest left a magnificent legacy. Now, a distinguished photographer has sought out British Columbia's native artists in their own places, met them informally and recorded their rediscovery of the old skills. In over 200 perceptive photographs, Ulli Steltzer has captured ninety-three dedicated men and women as they carve silver, wood and argillite; prepare wood for weaving and knitting; dig roots and gather grasses for their baskets. There are glimpses of their studios, their homes, the countryside; and their words, to, are recorded. -- From back cover

Despite being primarily a self-taught artist, Mitchell was able to attend the Banff School of Fine Arts for a short while on a scholarship. The publication pertains to a retrospective exhibition in which Mitchell’s inward life and outward life are both at odds, and in harmony with one another. Organized by the Glenbow-Alberta Institute, Mitchell shares the work that established her as a unique and important Canadian artist.

Much of Nicoll’s art is characterized by his attention to minute details, which is largely a result of his training as a Civil Engineer. Both an artist and poet, Nicoll has an extensive collection of works, many of which have gone unnoticed. The publication sought to bring Nicoll’s work to the surface, and hopefully attract attention to his great talents.
