Gaston Rebry
(1933 - 2007)
Born in Belgium, Gaston Rebry came to Canada in 1953 at the age of twenty. Accustomed to the pastoral landscapes of his homeland, the Canadian wilderness made a great impression on him. He became familiar with Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven whose work also had a strong influence on him. Their understanding and portrayal of landscape inspired him and stimulated the development of his own unique style.
