BRITISH COLUMBIA ARTISTS |
As I reference more early newspaper clippings, information about the various medals
awarded during the Vancouver Art Gallery series of
B.C. Artist exhibitions has slowly become clearer. I found
that I had made a few mistakes, attributing the "Beatrice Stone Medal"
award to artists who had won the Association Bronze medal, or the short-lived W.H. Malkin
Silver medal. It finally made sense to put all the information into a single table. Much of the information was provided courtesy of the Vancouver Art Gallery Library and Archives, especially a compilation of Beatrice Stone winners from (retired) Librarian Cheryl Siegel. Art Gallery Bulletins provided lists of winners, as did a variety of newspaper clippings. Honorable Mentions are not included in the table. The first annual BC Artists' exhibition is listed because the exhibition entry form stated that there would be "silver and bronze medals" awarded, but the Editor has yet to find a list of recipients for that year. |
