My Name is Rita Briansky:
A series of biographical fragments
transcribed and illuminated by Susan G. Scott
2011
Briansky’s words, and Scott’s images combine to tell an artists’s compelling story. Beginning with Rita Briansky’s journey to Canada from Poland in 1929 at the age of 2, the tale unfolds with a humour and pathos that characterizes Briansky’s approach to life. Her saga is full of personal details that paint a portrait of a unique era from the rare point of view of a female artist. The book also includes four images from Briansky’s Kaddish Series paintings.
