Harold Town

Harold Town (1924–1990) remains one of the most accomplished and fascinating characters of the Painters Eleven collective. Nicknamed the Picasso of Canada, his reputation goes beyond his association with them as one of the country's most versatile and inventive artists of the 20th century, constantly reinventing his aesthetic and regularly shifting mediums and moods. By the mid-’60s, he was considered Canadaʼs most famous artist.
