The Group of Seven - A group of Canadian artists in the 1920s who transformed Canadian Identity in the world of Visual Arts. The original Group of Seven consisted of Franklin Carmichael, Lawren Harris, A.Y. Jackson, Franz Johnston, Arthur Lismer, J.E.H. Macdonald and F.H. Varley.
Mirror Lake - Painting by Franklin Carmichael from The Group of Seven in 1929
Montréal depuis l'île Sainte-Hélène - A painting by
James Pattison Cockburn from 1830
Direct Evidence: Bright colours, wide range of colour temperature, hyper-saturated. The painting is not overly-realistic
Indirect Evidence: The bright colours are the signature sign of a painting by a member of The Group of Seven. The bright colours and their extremely eye-catching aesthetic was revolutionary and the dictating feature of Canadian visual arts at the time. The Group of Seven influenced Canadian Art so much that some even called it the largest defining movement of art in Canada. The saturated, beautiful colour scheme was a refreshing change to art previously made in Canada which used to be less saturated, and have very very strong influences from European art styles. Earlier in the 19th century, Canadian art, amongst most other European art, was meant to imitate real life. They tried to focus on making things look as realistic or as life-like as possible. However, the influence of The Group of Seven amongst several other artists, Canadian art grew to be more and more unique, or even imaginative. The vibrancy seen in this painting can be found nowadays in multiple different pieces, but a large portion of the inspiration can be traced back to this group of artists and paintings like these. The Canadian artist group’s work is amongst some of the world’s best and have been sold for the price tag of over $1,000,000. The photos, and the large difference between them goes to show how much Canadian art evolved over time, how different the art styles were, the growth of expressionism in the 1920s, the need and use of art as a form of communication and even therapy. The art portrays landscapes in Canada as heavenly, bright, vibrant, and full of life. The Group of Seven went on to give many people a sense of Canadian Identity in the 1920s as nationalism was important to the people in Canada and a beautiful viewpoint of the country through the scope of seven artists.
Cinema
Direct Evidence: The old time-y video shows Mary Pickford in colour, posing for a camera to test colour. Mary is dressed in seemingly expensive clothing & is wearing seemingly expensive makeup. Mary is wearing the same costume seen in the movie `The Black Pirate`Indirect Evidence: Mary Pickford in this video is smiling for the camera, flaunting in front of the testing of colour video. It can be inferred that she was extremely wealthy and highly regarded by the cinematic world because of her appearances in early colour video. Mary Pickford was dressed in the same costume as The Black Pirate so it can be inferred that she was screen testing for the movie. The Black Pirate was one of the movies Mary Pickford was in, and she later went to win an academy award for her future work. She also became the first actress to earn a million dollars yearly. Just from this 2 minute clip, we can see a lot of Mary`s personality, her confidence, and her large appearance in the cinematic scene as it began to flourish. The clip can show us a lot about "America's Sweetheart", or whatever footage of her was preserved.
