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

Mitchell, Janet
Abstract
Pertains to the work of Janet Mitchell, a Canadian landscape artist born in Medicine Hat, Alberta. 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.
