Jack Chambers

RCA
Born in London, Ontario, 1931-1978


Jack (John Richards) Chambers was a director, producer, screenwriter, editor, cinematographer, and visual artist.

Chambers is renowned as a Canadian realist artist. He was formally trained in traditional art making and from 1954 to 1959 he attended Madrid’s Escuela Central de Bellas Artes de San Fernando. He excelled as a student, winning the state prize for painting and the Paular Scholarship for landscape painting. Spanish culture exerted a major influence on Chambers.

He returned to London, Ontario in 1961; and, from 1963 onwards, he had regular one-person exhibitions in Toronto. His first exhibition was with the Isaacs Gallery, an important venue for Canadian contemporary art and screenings of artists’ films, and, later, with Nancy Poole’s Studio.
