June 2010Book Launch and Retrospective
The Life And Art of George Fertig
by Mona Fertig
Introduction by Peter Such
#3 in the Unheralded Artists of B.C. series
George Fertig was a Jungian, a symbolist, a socialist, and an outsider. But above all, he was an artist, struggling to
survive in mid century Vancouver, British Columbia. Part biography and part memoir, this book, the 3rd in
the Unheralded Artists of BC series, is based on fourteen years of research, interviews, letters and over 150 rare
photographs.
