The National Gallery of Canada is honoured to be showcasing the A.K. Prakash Collection of works by major Canadian artist James Wilson Morrice. This significant collection of oil paintings and watercolours by one of Canada’s foremost modernist painters is part of the Masterpiece in Focus series. Assembled with sensitivity to the evolution of the artist, the real strength of the collection lies in its variety, artistic quality and depth, highlighting key moments in Morrice’s career. The essays in this beautifully illustrated catalogue, as well as an in-depth interview with A.K. Prakash, position the pioneering artist in his proper and deserved context – as an artist of Canadian descent who lived and worked in Europe, who travelled extensively, and who was associated with the leading modern artists and movements of the period.
