Description: Markets Of Ontario Tradition Hans Zander HC Canadian orders Shipped Canada Post ..no duties!! Hardcover 1983, DJ in good used condition with wear on edges. pictures, illustrations. Sans Zander once took for granted what many f you may still take for granted; that there will be a never-ending stream of goods, neatly packaged, at your neighborhood store. But everything doesn't come in packages, as Zander discovered when he set out to capture Ontario's living market tradition. Armed with sketchpad and paintbrush, Zander found a complex network of commerce and culture, ranging from a single farmer's once-a-week stall to huge wholesale outlets, specialized auctions and almost-private, sometimes very powerful institutions. But all were markets under the skin - places where people would come to buy and sell. He learned, for instance, that public markets - the kind you might visit on a Saturday morning - have staged a tremendous comeback these past few years. Every sizeable city is bound to have its market house - a building that springs to life at least one day a week, filled with the fruits and vegetables brought from nearby fanming areas by market gardeners and small landowners whose kids stay home to man a roadside stand. But in the larger locations, you'll also find meat, fish, dairy products, fresh-baked breads and pastries, small livestock and homeless pets, local crafts and simply made music, perhaps a smattering of antiques and curious junk. A market has yet another definition: a place where people come to meet, to have a good time and to get in touch with one another. And that, in a somewhat depersonalized decade, seems a very healthy, very human, thing. For this book, Zander created ZO paintings and a number of black and white sketches. As Zander discovered in his travels, everyone loves a market. All Canadian Items Shipped Canada Post No duties! Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
