Interview by George Melnyk with Norman Yates, a professor in the Department of Art and Design (1954-1989) and renowned landscape painter

Norman Yates shares his thoughts on the commercial world of art and exhibiting and explains how his travels, particularly in the West and in England, have influenced his body of work. He talks about the free association of memories and about the artist in motion and what that means in relation to space and spatial concept. He discusses limitlessness, openness, and spirituality in his art.
