From 1928 to 1937, he taught in high schools in Duncan and Vancouver, while attending night classes under Frederick Varley at the Vancouver School of Art. Shadbolt wrote and published three books: In Search of Form, Mind’s I, and Act of Art. In 1988, with Doris Shadbolt, he established VIVA, a foundation granting awards to visual artists in British Columbia. He received the Guggenheim Award in 1957, the Molson Prize in 1977, and the Gershon Iskowitz Prize in 1990. He was awarded honorary degrees by four universities and was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1972. Shadbolt's works are represented in major public institutions across Canada, including the National Gallery of Canada, as well as countless private and corporate collections. Bau-Xi Gallery represented Shadbolt with 44 solo exhibitions in its Vancouver and Toronto locations since 1970. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShadbolt’s lithograph, \u003cem\u003eToward a White Garden\u003c\/em\u003e, emerged from a period in his output intent on confronting the viewer with a landscape in crisis and contest: the garden becomes a battle ground of power, where the echoes of colonial exploitation and Indigenous sovereignty reverberate. His work insists that landscape is not a passive backdrop but a living, seething entity—one whose psychological presence can press back against us, demanding recognition of its fraught histories. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLauren Brevner \u0026amp; James Harry’s\u003cem\u003e Sínulhḵay\u003c\/em\u003e, Jack Shadbolt’s \u003cem\u003eToward a White Garden\u003c\/em\u003e, and Ann Kipling’s \u003cem\u003eDog in the Sky\u003c\/em\u003e—have been brought together to explore the landscape’s complex psyche, the potency of animal symbolism, and the legacies of colonial encounter that still pulse through the Pacific Northwest today. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, these editions invite you to contemplate the land’s living memory—its beauty, its wounds, its stories—and how through art we can confront, honor, and re-imagine our relationship to the world around us. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePhoto by Rachel Topham Photography\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eADDITIONAL LINKS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bau-xi.com\/collections\/jack-shadbolt\"\u003eJack Shadbolt \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Artists for Kids \u0026 Gordon Smith Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50940931080489,"sku":null,"price":1200.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/9580\/5993\/files\/GSG_2025_edition_fall_002png.png?v=1757609957","url":"https:\/\/gordonsmithgallery.com\/products\/jack-shadbolt-toward-a-white-garden-1996","provider":"Artists for Kids \u0026 Gordon Smith Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
