About the Artist

Natalka Husar


Natalka Husar was born in 1951 in New Jersey to Ukrainian immigrant parents. She graduated from Rutgers University in 1973 and that same year moved to Toronto where she lives and works. Husar has exhibited extensively across Canada, is represented in numerous public collections, including the National Gallery of Canada, and has received support from the Canada Council, Ontario Arts Council, Toronto Arts Council, and SSHRC. Husar’s earliest exhibited works were trompe l’oeile ceramics, but after working as a flight attendant in the early 1980s, she began painting, with subject matter drawn from travel-work experience, and the paradoxes and conflicts of the Ukrainian émigré experience.
