Benjamin Chee Chee (1944 - 1977)
Cultural Background: Ojibway, Temagami Reserve, Bear Island Ontario Born in Temagami, Ontario, Chee Chee largely taught himself to draw and paint. His father died when he was two months old and he lost track of his mother. One reason behind his drive for success as a painter was his ambition to be reunited with her. He was a prominent member of the second generation of Woodland Indian painters, a native art movement that began in the early nineteen-sixties and has since become one of the important art schools in Canada. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Chee Chee pursued an economical graphic style, a reduction of line and image more in keeping with mainstream international modern art.At the age of thirty-two and at the height of a new found success as an artist and printmaker Chee Chee died tragically by committing suicide. These art cards are open edition and any signatures are part of the printing process. The cards are similar to a greeting card as it opens up to provide space for writing a letter. There is a short biography on the back of the card. The estate of Benjamin Chee Chee has an agreement with the publisher CAP. The card comes with an envelope and mylar sleeve.Card size is 6\" x 9\".
