The design work of Group of Seven painter J.E.H. MacDonald was not only central to his personal artistic development, but inseparable from the graphic design industry in Toronto from the 1890s to the 1930s: the "golden age" of book and magazine illustration. This connection has been largely overshadowed by his painting. Now this splendid book, tracing MacDonald's involvement with fine printing, book design and commercial art, raises the profile of graphic design as a formative influence in Canadian visual culture.

Annotation "Though better known as a brilliant landscape painter, J. E. H. MacDonald (1873-1932) was arguably Canada's first professional graphic designer, as we understand that term today - and one of the most versatile and gifted this country has produced. Heavily influenced by such leaders of the international Arts and Crafts movement as William Morris, Walter Crane and John Ruskin and their major Canadian disciples, A. H. Howard, Robert Holmes and G. A. Reid, MacDonald carved out an original path for himself by incorporating native Canadian elements into his designs for books, magazine illustrations, bookplates, lettering, armorial bearings, illuminated presentation addresses, wall-plaques and signs, word-marks, and a host of other applications." "As senior designer at Toronto's prestigious Grip Ltd., MacDonald presided over the talented studio of artists who, meeting regularly at the Arts and Letters Club, banded together in 1920 as the Group of Seven. Although he quit Grip in 1912 to paint full-time, and later taught at the Ontario College of Art, MacDonald was a working designer until his premature death in 1932. His credo in life as well as in graphic and decorative art was "The Harmony of Means and Purpose." J. E. H. MacDonald: Designer offers a representative selection of his applied art work in all media save mural painting, at which he also excelled."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

In 1905 two Montreal women, Alice Peck and May Phillips, founded the Canadian Handicrafts Guild. Inspired by British and American women in the arts and crafts movement, and spurred by their thirty-year rivalry with Mary Dignam of the Toronto-based Women's Art Association of Canada, these two created an organization that revived popular interest in traditional handwork done by women, Canadiens, Indigenous people, and new Canadians.

Editor and publisher, workaholic and romantic, idealist and pioneer, Lorne Pierce once described his editorial desk as "an altar at which I serve - the entire cultural life of Canada." Pierce laboured at his altar between 1920 and 1960 as the driving force behind Ryerson Press, the leading publisher of Canadian works during the mid-twentieth century. In Both Hands, Sandra Campbell captures the inimitable cultural role of a remarkable man whose work paved the way for the creation of a national identity. Both Hands delves into the encounters, trials, and triumphs that inspired Pierce's vision of cultural nationalism - from his rural upbringing in eastern Ontario, to the philosophical ideals he acquired at Queen's University, to his service as a teacher, a Methodist preacher, and a military man during the First World War. All these experiences coalesced in his work at Ryerson Press - then Canada's largest publishing house - even as he battled lupus and deafness to make his mark on the country's literary scene. Campbell situates this unflinching look into Pierce's personal and public life within the context of Canadian society, detailing his relationships with major figures such as the Group of Seven, Harold Innis, Donald Creighton, E.J. Pratt, the modernist Montreal poets, Northrop Frye, and many others. Set against the rich backdrop of Canada's early literary and artistic heritage, Both Hands vividly presents the life and work of an impresario of literary, historical, and art publishing of indisputable influence throughout the country's cultural milieus.
