You have just two weeks left to catch the Joe Fafard Exhibition at Calgary's Glenbow Museum.

We remind you of it because it is unlikely that such a diverse representation of the artist's work will ever be gathered in one location again.

One of Canada's best-loved visual artists, Joe Fafard was born to French-Canadian parents in the small agricultural community of Ste. Marthe, Saskatchewan. He attended both the University of Manitoba (BFA 1966) and Pennsylvania State University (MFA 1968). He was at the University of Saskatchewan, Regina from 1968 to 1974 and visiting lecturer at the University of California at Davis in 1980 and 1981.

In the early Seventiess, much of Fafard's sculpture used clay as a medium. In 1985, he shifted to bronze as his chief sculptural source, successfully establishing a foundry in Pense, west of Regina.

His highly-popular exhibitions across the country and around the world have significantly raised the profile of both Saskatchewan and Canada on the international stage.

Joe Fafard was named an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1981; received the Saskatchewan Order of Merit in 2002; received the National Prix Montfort in 2003; and in 2005, the Lieutenant-Governor's Saskatchewan Centennial Medal for the Arts.
