WRITERS The Canadian Art Database has been built as a visual record of the careers of Canadian artists, accompanied by the artist’s CV and descriptive information on images of their work. Images alone, however, seldom tell the whole story and, as a result, in 2001 the CCCA launched this section on Art Writing to provide a broader context for the artists and images. A lot of art writing is ephemeral in nature, appearing as it does in newspapers, magazines and journals, many of which are defunct and hard to find. The writing in this section initially related closely to the artists whose work is currently presented in The Canadian Art Database. This writing will often be by other artists, as well as poets, writers of fiction, and professional critics and curators. Authors and texts are added on a continuing basis. There are currently 1,234 texts by 190 writers available for viewing from the list below.Alphabetical List of Writers One Zero Zero Virtual Library Canadian Art Periodicals Database Searches and Access Advanced Text Search Copyright Terms The contents of this web site are protected under Canadian and International copyright law.
