Located in the picturesque town of Canmore, nestled among the majestic Rocky Mountains, Art Country Canada is a haven for those who appreciate the unique charm and spirit of original Canadian art. The gallery's rustic exterior, constructed from locally sourced timber and stone, seamlessly blends with the natural beauty of its surroundings, inviting art lovers to explore the treasures within.

Upon entering, visitors are greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The interior boasts an open, airy design, with natural light pouring in through large windows, illuminating the vibrant array of artworks on display. The walls of Art Country Canada are adorned with a diverse collection of pieces, ranging from contemporary abstracts that push the boundaries of creativity to meticulously detailed landscapes that capture the breathtaking beauty of Canada's wilderness.

 

Art Country Canada takes pride in its curated selection of works from both emerging and established Canadian artists. Each piece tells a story of the country's rich cultural heritage and diverse landscapes. One section of the gallery is dedicated to Indigenous art, showcasing traditional carvings, paintings, and sculptures that offer a profound connection to Canada's ancient traditions and spiritual roots. Another area features rotating exhibits that highlight the dynamic energy and cultural mosaic of Canada's urban centers, with scenes of bustling city life rendered in striking detail.

Maxine Noel

" Autumn Boy "

 

Original Gouache & Ink on paper 22" x 18"

 

Cultural Background: Santee Oglala Sioux, Manitoba

Maxine was born in Manitoba of Santee Oglala Sioux parents. She spent her early childhood on her mother’s
reserve but at the age of six she left to attend an Indian residential school. Maxine’s early career as a legal 
secretary was soon overshadowed by her preoccupation with painting and drawing.

 

She took a course in
advanced design where a teacher noticed Maxine’s tendency toward linear expression and encouraged
her in the use of shape and line to suggest movement. She learned those lessons well, as evidenced by
much of her work today. Since those early days Maxine has mastered the skills of painting and drawing 
plus the processes of serigraphy, etching and stone lithography. Recently she has turned her talents to
the creation of editions in cast paper and limited edition bronze castings.

 

Maxine has received excellent response to her work and is now able to devote herself full-time to the creation of art.

Maxine Noel signs her artwork with her Sioux name IOYAN MANI, which translates as “Walk Beyond”.
