Synopsis "Mary Pratt: A Love Affair with Vision"
Shortlisted, New Brunswick Book Award (Non-Fiction) and APMA Best Atlantic-Published Book AwardMary Pratt's art has captivated millions of Canadians. Her luminescent paintings capture reality in a way that few artists have been able to achieve -- the chip in a glass bowl, the play of light across a dish-strewn supper table, the vulnerability of a naked woman. Replete with symbolism, Pratt's work elevates the traditional still life by transforming the everyday into the iconic. Art historian Anne Koval wrote Mary Pratt: A Love Affair with Vision in close consultation with Pratt. The book is informed by extensive interviews with the artist, and her family, friends, and colleagues and by unprecedented access to Pratt's archival holdings at Mount Allison University. This in-depth study of Pratt's life and work explores the complex issues of gender, feminism, and realism in Canadian art, resulting in a richly layered biography of an artist who redefined the visual culture of her period and whose art and life intersect in varied and surprising ways.
