Is there such a thing as British Columbia culture, and if so, is there anything special about it? This is the broad question Dr. Maria Tippett seeks to answer in her book, Made in British Columbia, by examining the careers of eight ground-breaking cultural producers in the fields of painting, aboriginal art, architecture, writing, theatre and music. The creative figures profiled – Emily Carr, Bill Reid, Francis Rattenbury, Arthur Erickson, George Ryga and more – are not just distinguished artists who made an enduring mark on Canadian culture during the twentieth century. They are unique artists whose work is intimately interwoven with British Columbia’s identity.
