- Notice biographique
- Self-taught folk artist Ann Harbuz only began painting in her sixties. She drew inspiration from her rural and Ukrainian origins in Western Canada, reflecting her very personal vision of the social life of her community based on her memories. While her art career began late in life, she produced more than 1000 paintings and painted objects. She was commissioned to undertake a painting for the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Her work was exhibited across Canada and acquired for many collections including the Mendel Art Gallery (Saskatoon), the Saskatchewan Arts Board, and The Mackenzie Gallery (Regina). Her work was the subject of the solo exhibition "Ann Harbuz: Inside Community Outside Convention," held in 1996 at the Dunlop Gallery (Regina), and later traveling to the Glenbow Museum in Calgary, the Windsor Art Gallery, the Ukrainian Cultural and Educational Centre in Winnipeg, and the Canadian Museum of History, which has a collection of her paintings.
