Abstract
Pertains to the Dorothy Knowles exhibition catalogue, organized by Terry Fenton from the Edmonton Art Gallery. While the catalogue was never meant to capture the entirety of Knowles’ artist career, Terry Fenton organizes a thorough exhibition covering the last two decades of her work. It was in part due to Knowles enrollment at the Banff School that she was able to achieve a greater level of confidence in her artist skill. Through both essay and art work, Terry Fenton has been able to share the legacy of Dorothy Knowles.
