Jackson’s rich sense of paint, the austere formalism of Harris, the lyricism of MacDonald. the grandly conceived portraits of Varley, Fitzgerald's delicate and contemporary drawings, Holgate’s finely painted nudes and figures or the exciting struggle for realization that characterizes the work of Arthur Lismer. Carmichael and Carson also specialized in highly designed water colors, and their influence has been widely felt in that medium. In the famous McMichael Collection at Klein- burg are 41 Tom Thomson sketches and a Thomson canvas. In speaking of Thomson, Robert McMichael said, “If you follow his paintings during the last three years of his life, you can see his style changing and improving almost month by month. You can’t help but wonder what he would have done if he had lived longer." The group, along with the sensitive and ill-fated Tom Thomson, performed two valuable services for Canadian art. They carried along the pioneer work by interpreting the Canadian scene through Can- adian eyes and they presented these qualities abroad. Being among the innovators. the group under- went the customary criticism and disparagement at home. Individually each member made a personal contribution to their common art. whether it be , It was a great loss to the future of Canadian art. Thomson was a true genius, who, without dis- cussing or analyzing worked from Some inner power and feeling for the forest. Thoreau MacDonald wrote. “The north woods were in his bones and he brought his sketches out of the bush as naturally as a hunter brings out fish or partridge.” Tom Thomson had the reputation of being the best and kindest of men. To perpetuate the memory of Thomson sev- eral years ago the McMichaels purchased the shack in which Thomson painted his great canvases and had it moved from Toronto to their property.

THE GROUP OF SEVEN The Group of Seven gave Canadian landscape painting in particular, and Canadian art in general. an entirely new direction, and their influence was felt directly or indirectly in almost all the works of succeeding decades. Many people think that Tom Thomson was an actual member of the Group of Seven, but the fact is, that it was originated two or three years after his death. According to the booklet that Thoreau MacDonald wrote concerning the group for the Canadian Art Series, Tom Thomson was drowned in Canoe Lake in Algonquin Park in 1917. (In the McMichae] apartment. the black and white sketches of Thoreau MacDonald dominate the scene.) After Thomson’s death, the future‘ group mem- bers pressed to the fight on all fronts. They startled and sometimes shocked the Canadian public with their vivid and lively exhibitions. In 1920, the Group of Seven was formally named. It was a friendly alliance, held together by common ideals. The original seven members who gave it its name were Lawren Harris, A. Y. Jackson, Arthur Lismer, J. E. H. MacDonald. Frank Carmichael, Franz H. Johnston and F. H. Varley. Johnston resigned in 1922 and A. J. Casson. Edwin Holgate and L. L. Fitzgerald became members in 1926, 1931 and 1932 respectively.

Mayor Sid McLennan describ- ed the takeover, to start in 1970 and be completed in 1971. as yet another illustration of the lack of direction which has charac- terized provincial action in local affairs in the past months. 9 Immediately review and al- ter its supplementary grants to school boards so as to equally benefit the ratepayers of all municipalities regardless of po'pulation. “In recent times. local func- tions such as air pollution con- trol and administration of jus- tice have been completely withâ€" drawn from the local sphere." the mayor charged. “Others like conservation and health services have been transferred to re- gional boards so large and with so many provincially appointed PINDER BROS.

The municipal council has been deprived of even the weak voice it once had in education, and all that now remains is for you to take the final step and assume total jurisdiction in edu- cational matters Finally you have usurped jurisdiction in property assessmentâ€"the very base and foundation stone of the little viability remaining to the municipalities." Pointing out that the ratepay- ers of Kitchener received a tax increase of 8.5 mills for educaâ€" tion this year, the mayor stated. “With other local councils we were disappointed when your promises went unfulfilled again this year and educational costs to the local taxpayer rose sharply." He called the decision to make additional grants to all local municipalities except those having a population of 60,000 or more â€"â€" unfair. undemocratic and rankly discriminatory. City Treasurer R. V. Eby pointed out that the city had its own computer and operates a most efficient assessment de- partment. The assessment and tax function of the computer is completely integrated and de- signed to provide accurate. com- plete and up-to-date informa- tion when needed. The Kitchener clerk vehemâ€" ently attacked the “morass of confusion and bitterness over the new county board of educa- tion system, which has increas- ed the city‘s tax rate eight mills." He pointed out the cost of health services in two years unâ€" der the county health unit had increased from $1.70 per capita to $3.87. an increase of 128% without material improvement in the quality of health services.

(Continued from Page 2) of two musicians who are also painters should pro. duce an unusual program with wide appeal. Roy Robson. principal of Joseph Gibson School in Maple, is both musician and oil painter. and for about a year he has been collaborating with Gallant Gondos. a concert pianist and recording artist. who uses lacquer enamel for his visual art, many of them abstract in conception. Performing both in duet and solo on piano and organ. the painter-musicians have a well chosen program of music ranging from show tunes to classics, and each artist has illustrated his feeling for the individual compositions in a collection of paintings. For example. “Liebestraum” by Liszt, is represented by Mr. Gondos as a study with dream- like quality in shades of mauve and blue. So successful was their initial joint appearance at Heintzman Hall before an audience of over 300. that they have decided to aim at a larger public and will present their dual act at St. Lawrence Market, Auditorium at Jarvis and Front Streets. on June 5, at 8.30 pm. Their paintings will be displayedaround the hall so that the audience may see for themselves what the music has inspired in the artists and com- pare their own response to the combined forms of expression. Mr. Gondos will be performing some of his works. popular classics by masters such as Liszt. Chopin and Debussy, and together with Mr. Robâ€" son. selections from West Side Story, Sound of Music and Fiddler on the Roof. Their finale is a dramatic rendering of the theme from Exodus. I would be particularly interested to see their visual interpretation of this piece of music. This is obviously music week for “In the Spot- light“. Another interesting musician with whom I‘ve been talking this week is Tony Antonacci. pic- colo player with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Anton‘acci, who lives on Crestwood Road. South Thornhill with his wife Nancy and their.three children, came to Canada from Italy as a child. He studied flute at the Conservatory of Music under the late Gordon Day, at that time first flute with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. He also studied with the late William Kincaid, an eminent musician who was solo flautist with the Toronto Symphony over a period of 14 years. The long hours of. rehearsal and the pressures of the concert platform earn a musician of this cal- ibre the advantages of association with some of the world’s best musical talents, and the opportunity to perform in many far away places. Mr. Antonacci has recently performed with the T80 on a two-week tour in Japan, folloWed by a week in New York and Philadelphia. The conductors under whose baton Mr. Anton- acci has worked include Sir Malcolm Sargeant. Sir Thomas Beecham and Sir John Barbirolli. Speaking of the retiring musical director, the fascinating Seiji Ozawa, he refers to him as one of the world’s brightest young talents in the musical field. The orchestra has made frequent tours in the States, playing in such musical centres as Boston, but it was not until Centennial year that the people of northern Ontario had the good fortune to hear this fine orchestra when they played in North Bay, Kirkland Lake and Haileybury. Four years ago the T80 performed at the Commonwealth Festival of the Arts. and were heard at Festival Hall in London, as well as in Glasgow. Birmingham and Cardiff. This tour also included performances in Paris and Lyons. Mr. Antonacci is not the only musician in the family. His wife, Nancy, is the official accompanist to the Mendelssohn Choir. and with her husband has given concerts of chamber music on CBC. and at, the summer concerts held in the O'Keefe Centre and at the Art Gallery. ; Roses Our Specialty â€"- Soil For All Different Plants 3 24 Hour In The Spotlight CITY OF GLASS GARDEN CENTRE LAMB THE MOVER LTD. 127 BIRCH AVE. - THORNHILL PHONE 889-4911-2-3 114 CROSBY AVE.
