Just for nice

Sinopse

"The German-Canadian community, among the oldest cultural communities in Canada (over 300 years old), has produced a wealth of folk art, both traditional and popular. Shown here are works by a broad spectrum of folk artists, including a number of contemporary artists. Selected from the collections of the Canadian Museum of Civilization, an eclectic range of objects, from furniture and garments to paintings and musical instruments, illustrates the geographical spread and regional variations as well as the skill and humour of these artists. In addition, distinguished experts in art and culture offer fascinating perspectives on the style and development of the folk art of German-Canadians."--Jacket.
