In Pnina Granirer, Portrait of an Artist, Ted Lindberg captures the development in life
        and art of one of Canada's finest painters. Over the past forty years, Pnina Granirer has
        been exploring and extending her perception of the world around us with exuberantly
        colourful and formally innovative paintgs and prints.

        Lindberg analyzes in detail Granirer's art from her early years in Romania through her
        student experiences in Israel to her mature works in Canada. He also reveals how Granirer's
        recent work succesfully challenges the age old nature/ culture dichotomy and re-configures
        the vision of the artist to include Woman in all her many guises.

        Lavishly illustrated, the book contains 195 full colour pages of Granirer's finest paintings
        with a special section devoted to her works as a print maker.

 Departing Angel, a linoleum print in four colours  by Pnina Granirer, was conceived and cut  especially for this hardcover limited edition of 100. It was printed from the original blocks by Peter Braune, of New Leaf Editions on a Vandercook proofing press. The paper is Zerkall mould-made white wove. The edition of 100 is signed and numbered by the artist.

        This wonderful book tells the story of Granirer's continuing quest to find answers to life's most
         important questions."  - Nicholas Tuele, Chief Curator, Art Gallery of Greater Victoria

        "Lindberg gives recognition to a painter and printmaker who has consistently and imaginatively
         used her heritage, her family life, and her spiritual discoveries to reveal the universal in the
         personal."  -Paula Gustafson, editor, Artichoke
 

"This is a fantastic book on the work and life of Pnina Granirer! I have seldom read a book with such relish! I was exposed to Granirer in a new way. I was amazed at the people and places she was connected to and the media she catapulted into art history.

If you are seeking inspiration in your own work or simply a fabulous biography, try this one. It may be the one that changes how you look at the world."

-David Fraser, Canada
