Title: The artist herself
Description: "This publication, the first to focus on self-portraits by Canadian historical woman artists, features paintings, textiles, drawings, prints, photographs, and film from the late 1700s to the early 1960s. Drawing upon our fascination with self-portraiture, The Artist Herself: Self- Portraits by Canadian Historical Women Artists expands the genre's definition by moving beyond the human face to propose other forms of self-representation, from both settler and Indigenous perspectives. These works reveal how Canadian women artists have given profound expression to their personal, familial and communal identities across cultures, media, and time."
