Franklin Carmichael: An Artist's Process | Le Processus d'un Artiste
September 10th, 2021
September 10th, 2021
The exhibition was produced by the Art Gallery of Sudbury | Galerie d’art de Sudbury with generous access by members of Franklin Carmichael’s family, the Estate of Franklin Carmichael, and funding from the Government of Canada through Canadian Heritage. The AGA is the only other venue this exhibition will be presented at. The exhibition features 37 artworks mostly from the estate of Franklin Carmichael. Most of these works have not been exhibited before.
The works of art in the exhibition are of outstanding significance by their close association with a person, Canadian artist Franklin Carmichael (1890-1945), and a group of artists, the Group of Seven (1920-1932), who were hugely influential for Canadian art in the early 20th century. The original members of the Group of Seven were Lawren Harris, A.Y. Jackson, Franz Johnston, Arthur Lismer, J.E.H. MacDonald and F.H. Varley and Franklin Carmichael,. Tom Thomson was a peer and a leading influence but died in 1917 before the Group was formed. Franklin Carmichael (1890-1945) was the youngest founding member of the Group of Seven.
