Mccready Lecture On Canadian Art: Rosalie Favell

Join photo-based Metis artist Rosalie Favell for a conversation exploring the universe of her art practice, her passion for image making and the source of her inspiration. Her work reveals her search to comment on the worlds she lives in, investigating issues of personal and cultural identities. 

Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Rosalie Favell: Portraits of Desire 

Rosalie Favell is a photo-based artist, born in Winnipeg, Manitoba and now based in Ottawa. To date Rosalie’s work has explored the relation of photography to issues of identity. Over the course of her long career, Favell’s work has appeared in exhibitions in Canada, the US, Edinburgh, Scotland, Paris, France, Taipei, Taiwan and Melbourne, Australia. Numerous institutions have acquired her artwork including: National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa), Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography (Ottawa), Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian (Washington, D.C.), and Global Affairs, Canada. A graduate of Toronto Metropolitan University, Rosalie holds a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of New Mexico and a PhD (ABD) from Carleton University in Cultural Mediations. In Ottawa Rosalie has taught at Carleton University, the University of Ottawa and Discovery University. 

The McCready Lecture on Canadian Art is named in honour of Philip J. McCready, a respected and well-known dealer in Canadian art during the middle years of the 20th Century. Following his death in 1981, a group of his friends and colleagues raised a fund to support a biannual lecture on Canadian art.
