	Barker Fairley - "Shirley" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Fairley was already active on campus as an Associate Professor of German when he was selected by Warden Bickersteth to become the Chairman of the Sketch Committee at Hart House in 1922.
		In addition to the influence Fairley exerted within Hart House to ensure that art by the Group of Seven was exhibited, as an art critic in the 1920s he was their enthusiastic supporter.
		Most important to Fairley's writing was that he sought to give context to the art being created in Canada during those years and asserted that the true merits of the work, if not properly recognized at the time, would be judged "more nicely" as the years progressed.

	Penumbra Press: Books, Art Prints, Limited Editions, Collectibles
		'IN 1922, Barker Fairley's scholarly writing and his paintings were ahead of him, and he didn't intend to write poetry.
		The poems were invariably formally finished, their often unusual though immaculately turned rhymes as neat as dancing, their sometimes intricate paradoxes, reinforced by structural reversals and symmetries and linguistic mirror images, as satisfying as cabinetry.
		Fairley remembers that he wrote them straight out, as if he were taking dictation, as if he were a conduit through which these subtly-crafted lyrical artifacts were flowing to earth from some mysterious spiritus mundi of which he had never dreamt.'

	Studies in Canadian Literature
		Barker Fairley recalls that it was he who first proposed a national magazine ("Let's go to the country with it") and that Gilbert Jackson suggested the name for the new magazine.
		In the early years, references to the development of Canadian art and poetry are tenuous at best but by 1925, Barker Fairley is able to record the highly successful reception given to the Group of Seven with their London exhibition.
		Fairley perceives that the issue is a complex one; those who bristle with rage at the sight of the stars and stripes on a yacht in the Georgian Bay are probably at the same moment sitting on the rocks "reading Carl Sandburg and damning Tennyson in their hearts.

		Barker Fairley, an enthusiastic supporter of Thomson and his colleagues, and an important art critic during the 1920s, reviewed the 1920 Memorial Exhibition of Thomson's paintings for the Rebel, and described his sense while walking among the paintings of 'the presence...
		Fairley referred to its 'daring originality,' noting that it was unfinished, and singled it out as one of Thomson's more important works by suggesting that his strength 'is perhaps at its fullest in The West Wind and in some of the sketches' (246–47).
		Fairley's article, by attempting a critical matrix in which to situate Thomson the painter, helped to shift discussion to his paintings during the 1920s.

	Canadian Painters as Art Educators 1920-1950
		The success of his work has been attributed to his ability to offer a sense of underlying structure even in abstract images (16) as is notable in his painting Lost City.
		Most important to Fairley's writing was that he sought to give context to the art being created in Canada during those years and asserted that the true merits of the work, if not properly recognized at the time, would be judged "more nicely" (19) as the years progressed.
		(21) In 1938 Fairley organized a collective of amateur painters known as the Studio Group and although they never attracted any significant attention to themselves professionally, Fairley did use his influence to give them a show at Hart House.

		The pieces range in date from the early 1930s to the late 1980s, in topic from movie music to the Vietnam War, and in length from half a page to fifteen or so.
		Many are contributions to the Canadian Forum and Gorak usefully sketches in its history in his ample introduction, which also successfully places Frye in his intellectual milieu, from his Toronto colleagues like Barker Fairley and Charles Causley, to international figures like Oswald Spengler, T.S.Eliot, and Edmund Wilson.
		Further, each piece is introduced by a brief sketch of its context or occasion, often involving long-forgotten controversies, The explanatory notes are useful and copious, though many reveal how assumptions about what a reader can be expected to know have changed since Frye’s day.

	The Canadian Worker Poet: the Life and Writings of Joe Wallace
		As Fairley subsequently noted in a New Frontiers article, the visitors were impressed by the efforts in the peoples' republics to preserve the traditional cultures of their countries, through theatre, museums of folk art, and restoration of heritage architecture.
		This "reverence for the past," combined with "love of country, a longing for peace and [an eagerness to] work for socialism" (30), must have been especially eye-opening for Wallace, whose life experience in working-class and commercial urban Canada was far removed from this kind of heightened consciousness of cultural tradition.
		"Not that he was a great genius," wrote Barker Fairley, who painted Wallace's portrait in 1957, "but he stood for something, which is not a bad thing in a poet" (22).
