Brigitte Nowak

Biography:

Brigitte Nowak lives in Toronto and spends summers on an island in Georgian Bay.  Her paintings, in oils and in egg tempera, explore the nature of reality and illusion, the interaction between the human and natural worlds and the line between observation and comment.  Image-making, to understand and reveal the world, has always been part of her life.

Her work has been chosen as the signature image for Toronto’s Riverdale Art Walk, the Junction Arts Festival calendar, the Project CANOE charitable organization, and was selected “Top 10” at the 2009 Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. She has won awards in both Canada and the U.S., and her work is in private and corporate collections. She is represented by several galleries in Ontario, including the Red Canoe Gallery in Muskoka, Haliburton’s Ethel Curry Gallery and Latitude 44 in Toronto.
