- Artist Biography
- 1906-1980. Born in Calgary , Alberta. He is known as one of Canada's early modernists. His uses of altered perspectives, quirky, unusual plays of colour, multiple planes of space, broken up form and dissembled objects that focused of Alberta landscapes and Canadian images was significant part of his practice. He also depicted working class and farm people, family scenes, social scenes, and still life. Bates, along with John Snow, brought the first lithographic press to Alberta. Bates was awarded the Order of Canada in 1980. His work is represented in numerous public collections, including the National Gallery of Canada and the Tate Gallery. http://www.madronagallery.com/historical/artists/maxwellbates
