Robert Campbell, View of Legislature looking West, 1938 watercolour
Est: $300 - $400
Edmonton Art Gallery label verso. Exhibited in EGA show " From Fort to a City: Paintings of Historical Edmonton" in 1985. This particular piece was loaned to the exhibition by the Honourable Mr. Justice Horace G. Johnson. Robert Campbell was born in 1883 in Dumbarton, Scotland, where he later served as an apprentice in the building trades. After immigrating to Canada in 1906 at the age of 22, he settled in Alberta to practice his trade. He served in World War I and was stationed for a while in England, where he attended art classes under the direction of the English watercolourist Victor W. Burnand. Burnand imparted to Campbell a strong appreciation for the British watercolour tradition and upon returning to Canada after the War, Campbell resumed his regular profession, but spent his spare time sketching and painting. A charter member of the Edmonton Art Club, and for a time, a member of the Alberta Society of Artists, he studied at the Alberta School of Fine Arts under British-born Alberta artist A.C. Leighton. He later played an important part in the founding of the Banff School of Fine Arts. Robert Campbell was best known for his watercolour paintings, although he also worked with oil, pastel, clay-modelling and block printing. His favourite subject was the natural environment, and he spent many hours in nature painting the mountains, lakes and rural scenes of Western Canada. His paintings have a natural, unaffected quality deriving from his traditional training, and he was not interested in abstraction or non-objective art, which he felt isolated man from his environment. Although he did not sell many of his paintings during his lifetime because he regarded them as primarily a visual diary of his life, his work was widely collected after his death and has been shown extensively in public exhibitions.

ROBERT CAMPBELL JUNIOR, 1944 – 1993, CINEMA, 1986, synthetic polymer paint on canvas SIGNED: signed and dated lower right: ROBERT CAMPBELL / JR / 6.5.86 DIMENSIONS: 91.5 x 121.0 cm PROVENANCE: Collection of Tony Coleing, New South Wales Private collection, New South Wales ESSAY: Robert Campbell Jnr first began painting after returning to his hometown Kempsey in the early 1980s. His strong personal approach of using bold colours and a cartoon style to create images of intelligence, humour and charm that address the uncomfortable and often brutal history of racism and dispossession of twentieth-century Australia. Cinema shows an outdoor movie theatre with a white line separating the local Indigenous from the non-Indigenous people. The indigenous people had to take a different entrance and sit on the ground while the non-indigenous had the actual seats in the back and someone cleaning the aisle. Djon Mundine underlines the importance of Campbell’s work: ‘it came at a time when Aboriginal issues were being discussed like never before. The Land Rights movement had made white Australians conscious of the injustices perpetrated on Indigenous people. There was widespread public sympathy for Aboriginal protests and a rejection of the bigotries of the past. The stage was set for an artist to portray the history of black and white relations in a simple, non-aggressive manner.’1 1 McDonald, J., ‘Indigenous artist Robert Campbell Jnr harnesses shadows and light’, Sydney Morning Herald, 17 April 2015
