Text is in French and English. Issued in conjunction with a 2015-2016 series of exhibitions, "the first to focus on self-portraits by Canadian historical women artists, features paintings, textiles, drawings, prints, photographs, and film from the late 1700s to the early 1960s. ... Expands the genre's definition by moveing beyond the human face to propose the other forms of self-representation, from both settler and Indigenous perspectives. These works reveal how Canadian women artists have given profound expression to their personal, familiar, and communal identities across cultures, media, and time." (back cover) The annotated and illustrated catalogue presents 58 unique pieces. Interesting!
