Description

A beautiful two volume boxed set with a limited edition, signed and numbered original print. Ted Godwin, the youngest of the Regina Five, those abstract artists that showed and worked together in Regina in the 1960s, was a rebel in many ways. This catalogue examines his contemporary work, describing this early period as his Dionysian, active, emotional style, in contrast to his subsequent Apollonian period, that of his tartans. Edited and with a forward and article "The Dionysian Journey: Ted Godwin's Regina Paintings" by Ann Davis, an article " Ted Godwin – The Drawings" by Patricia Ainslie, and "Memoirs Excerpted" by Ted Godwin. The first volume reproduces works from the exhibition, Ted Godwin: The Regina Five Years, 1957-1967, with an accompanying text written by Dr. Ann Davis Director of The Nickle Arts Museum setting Godwin's work in historical context, and relationship to art activities in the rest of the World. The companion volume is the Godwin Memoirs, a fascinating personal account of the turbulent times the artist's career spanned.
