Wabanaki modern : the artistic legacy of the 1960s "Micmac Indian Craftsmen" = Wabanaki Kiskukewey : Natawitekemkewe'k naqtmi'tipp 1960s "Mi'kmawe'k L'nu'k Natawiteka'tij" = Wabanaki moderne : héritage artistique des Micmac Indian Craftsmen des années 1960 / by Hassencahl-Perley, Emma,author.; Hassencahl-Perley, Emma,author.; Leroux, John,1970-author.; Beaverbrook Art Gallery,publisher,host institution.; Container of (work):Micmac Indian Craftsmen.Works.Selections.;
Includes bibliographical references."The "Micmac Indian Craftsmen" of Elsipogtog (then known as Big Cove) rose to national prominence in the early 1960s. At their peak, they were featured in print media from coast to coast, their work was included in books and exhibitions--including at Expo 67--and their designs were featured on prints, silkscreened notecards, jewelry, tapestries, and even English porcelain. Primarily self-taught, deeply rooted in their community, and fluent Mi'kmaw speakers, they were among the first modern Indigenous artists in Atlantic Canada. Inspired by traditional Wabanaki stories, they produced an eclectic range of handmade objects that were sophisticated, profound, and eloquent. By 1966, the withdrawal of government support compromised the Craftsmen's resources, production soon ceased, and their work faded from memory. Now, for the first time, the story of this ground-breaking co-operative and their art is told in full. Accompanying a major exhibition at the Beaverbrook Art Gallery opening in 2022, Wabanaki Modern features essays on the history of this vibrant art workshop, archival photographs of the artisans, and stunning full-colour images of their art."--

I used to live here once : the haunted life of Jean Rhys / by Seymour, Miranda,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Jean Rhys is one of the most compelling writers of the twentieth century. Memories of her Caribbean girlhood haunt the four short and piercingly brilliant novels that Rhys wrote during her extraordinary years as an exile in 1920s Paris and later in England, a body of fiction--above all, the extraordinary Wide Sargasso Sea--that has a passionate following today. And yet her own colorful life, including her early years on the Caribbean island of Dominica, remains too little explored, until now. In I Used to Live Here Once, Miranda Seymour sheds new light on the artist whose proud and fiercely solitary life profoundly informed her writing. Rhys experienced tragedy and extreme poverty, alcohol and drug dependency, romantic and sexual turmoil, all of which contributed to the "Rhys woman" of her oeuvre. Today, readers still intuitively relate to her unforgettable characters, vulnerable, watchful, and often alarmingly disaster-prone outsiders; women with a different way of moving through the world. And yet, while her works often contain autobiographical material, Rhys herself was never a victim. The figure who emerges for Seymour is cultured, self-mocking, unpredictable--and shockingly contemporary. Based on new research in the Caribbean, a wealth of never-before-seen papers, journals, letters, and photographs, and interviews with those who knew Rhys, I Used to Live Here Once is a luminous and penetrating portrait of a fascinatingly elusive artist"--
