The Canadian Art Preservation Foundation seeks to ensure merited artists works and their artifacts can be stored in archival manner so that their legacy can be examined, catalogued, studied and exhibited in the future. The works will be made available for study purposes to educational organizations such as educational institutions, museums and public galleries. If you would like to collaborate or contribute, please get in touch.

We are a foundation dedicated to receiving artwork, financial donations and other assets (including artists’ journals, ephemera, and other material that comprises a visual and/or intellectual “portrait” of any particular artist).

We manage operating funds and the inventory which is the art collection.

We actively preserve, care for and promote artwork.

CAPF operates largely using a volunteer workforce, directed by professional staff to oversee acquisition, cataloguing, and storage of artwork. Liaisons are being created with institutions having permanent collections. Three of the four directors are artists or art professionals. The  other offers professional and financial management and quality assurance strengths.

When Emily Carr (1871–1945) wrote about landscape paintings—her own and those of others—she would sometimes describe how an eye might move through the imagined space in the work. It is striking, then, that so many of her own paintings create an experience of dense, impenetrable forest that confounds such forward movement. In many cases, the viewer is tantalized with the Read more...
