Seminar in Canadian History: 20th Century Canadian War Art & Public HistoryIn this course students learn about the origins of Canadas national war art collection (the Beaverbrook Collection of War Art) and how the majority of artworks in the collection came to be housed in Ottawa. Students will learn about how the war art collection began with the establishment of the Canadian War Memorials Fund by Lord Beaverbrook in 1916 and the subsequent war art schemes that have operated in Canada up to and including the present with the Canadian Forces Artists Program. They will also learn about Canadian public history best practices (including museum art gallery and archives best practices) that have evolved over the last century to accommodate/exhibit the war art collections. Importantly students will learn about how this monumental collection of Canadian war art contributed (and continues to contribute) to such themes as: Canadian nation building of the twentieth century through the lenses of nationalism gender art historical discussions of high vs. low art Canadian art canon building more broadly memory and commemoration studies modernism(s) and modernity to name a few.
