Beverly Sandalack

Dr. Beverly Sandalack is a Professor at the University of Calgary (School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape) and a practicing landscape architect and planner. She writes, draws and paints.  Her PhD thesis and several subsequent papers dealt with a methodology for urban analysis and design, with three prairie towns (including Eastend) as case studies. As part of a research process she completed abstract paintings of the three towns, and the painting of Eastend emphasized the river and the landscape.  

During her residency in the Wallace Stegner House, Beverly will be completing a book that is dealing with the cultural landscapes of the Canadian prairies (especially southern Saskatchewan) and of western Ukraine, explored through the lens of the particular story of one Canadian family.
