Great article on The Kingston Prize book that WORK BOOK (Robyn Lew snd myself) co-published with Goose Lane Editions and Donville Creative.

A new book makes well-earned noise for the Kingston Prize, which has been fuelling a renaissance in Canadian portrait art for two decades

WORK BOOK, the publishing collective I run with Robyn Lew, recently launched The Kingston Prize: Canada's Portrait Competition, a book we did in collaboration with Donville Creative and Goose Lane Editions. The launch was a way to bring as many of the artists together to get sneak preview copies of the book. Here are some wonderful photos taken at the event by Gabor Podor, and assembled by one of the Kingston Prize artists, Miklos Legrady https://legrady.com/kingstonbook/. You can purchase a copy of the book at Goose Lane Editions, Indigo.ca, Amazon.ca, or at many bricks and mortar outlets like the Art Gallery of Ontario's retail shop.
