Synopsis

Transformations: A. Y. Jackson and Otto Dix shows how their wartime experiences resonate in their later landscapes. Many transform elements of the conflict into personal commentary on Canadian and German national identity in the interwar years. Arranged chronologically into five sections, from their pre-1914 careers to their deaths, this book reviews the trajectories of both artists and includes over 40 images of landscape paintings, drawings and prints, some never before seen in Canada.
