INTRODUCTION Modernist artists “re-defined landscapes by including industrial locations, busy streets or cafés, among several other subjects. Notably, A. M. Klein presented us with a ‘Portrait of the Poet as Landscape,’ of whom ‘each city has one, sometimes more than one,’ and who wishes ‘to look with single camera view upon this earth — its total scope” (Kiirtési). Various landscapes conceived at various points in time “have been described in markedly different ways depending on the artistic views of the given historical period” (Kürtösi) and bearing the personal trademarks and vision of the artists themselves. The term landscape itself yields to an amazing cornucopia of interpretations and approaches, to which the volume Canadian Landscapes/ Paysages canadiens bears testimony.
