内容简介
Hidden Values presents--in mo fuU-colour plates--the first overview of contemporary Canadian art to appear in almost two decades.
Over the past thirty years, Canadian corporations have made a serious commitment to supporting the visual arts by collecting con-temporary Canadian art. These unique collections of paintings, prints, drawings, photographs and sculpture form an important part of the nation's cultural heritage. Hidden Values presents many of these works for the first time across Canada,in this book and in an unprecedented series of major regional exhibitions on Western, Ontario and Atlantic collections, as well as a video doc-umentary on Quebec collections.
Featured here are Ioo seldom-seen works by Ioo contemporary Canadian artists, including Jack Bush, Geneviève Cadieux, Jack Chambers,Alex Colville, Ulysse Comtois, Chris Cran, Ivan Eyre, Joe Fafard, Gathie Falk, Betty Goodwin,Geoffrey James, Sam Lam, Rita Letendre, Jean McEwen, Medrie MacPhee, Vicky Marshall, Jane Ash Poitras, Leslie Poole, Christopher Pratt, Mary Pratt, Jack Shadbolt, Gordon Smith,
David Thauberger and Tim Zuck.
Robert Fulford's introductory essay explores the little-known passion of many Canadian corporations for collecting Canadian art and the forces that have placed art at the centre of our
national consciousness.
Robert Swain's ground-breaking essay provides a critical and historical overview of the evolution of private and corporate art collecting in Canada, from the Hudson's Bay Company's support of painter Paul Kane in the 1840s up to the present. There are also brief biographies of all the artists Whose works are represented in this book.

Museum Directors' Organization and president of the Ontario Association of Art Galleries. During his
twelve years as director of the Agnes Etherington Ar Centre at Queen's University, he curated, among
