``Group of seven`` musical exhibition
An original piece of art is a passionate creative work that reflects the
soul of the artist and the soul of the buyer as well for choosing the art
piece. To the viewer in todayis increasingly cultivated society, seeing
works of visual art can stimulate interest, change, or suggest a new way of
seeing things around us. It can trigger us to inquire about what we perceive,
which helps our understanding of other realms as well.
In the early twentieth century, circumstances brought together several
artists who were committed to exploring, through art, the unique character of
the Canadian landscape.
The Group of Seven was a group of Canadian landscape painters known for
their large, brilliantly colored scenes of the Canadian wilderness.
Believing that a distinct Canadian art could be developed through direct
contact with nature, the Group of Seven initiated the first major Canadian
art movement. The original members of the group were Franklin Carmichael,
Lawren Harris, A. Y. Jackson, Frank Johnston, Arthur Lismer, J. E. H.
MacDonald, Frederick Varley.
Canadais rugged wilderness needed to be recorded in a distinctive
painting style; a style that would break from the European tradition and
reflect an increasingly nationalistic sentiment.
Today, these men are among Canadais most famous artists. For many, their
works have come to symbolize what is distinctly the Canadian identity.
I chose three paintings from each painter as inspiration to compose my
seven-movement musical exhibition for two Pianos.
