About
Anthony Morse Urquhart, CM RCA LL.D. (April9, 1934 – January26, 2022) was a Canadian painter born in Niagara Falls, Ontario. He was recognized in the late 1950s and early 1960s as one of Canada's pioneering abstractionists, having been variously linked with the Toronto painters associated with The Isaacs Gallery and The Heart of London group that included Jack Chambers, Greg Curnoe and Murray Favro. Since the 1960's Urquhart has followed an independent and autonomous path in his art, centred upon his distinctive 'box' format. In 1968, with Jack Chambers and Kim Ondaatje, he helped found Canadian Artists' Representation/Le Front des artistes canadiens (CARFAC), the artists' 'union' that first established a fee schedule for public museum and gallery exhibitions of contemporary artists.
