A painter, writer, and teacher, Eric Cameron is a major contemporary Canadian artist. Born in Leicester, England in 1935, he arrived in Canada in the 1970s and quickly became established, teaching at the University of Guelph, the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, and the University of Calgary while continuing to work in painting, his primary medium.

Over the course of a distinguished career, Cameron moved from traditional figuration to a highly conceptual practice, both with his process paintings and thick paintings, expanded into video, and wrote a great deal about his work. His inspired teaching and unusual artwork has been recognized with major awards, including the Victor Lynch-Staunton Award, the Gershorn Iskowitz Prize, and the Governor General's Award.

Cover and Uncover explores Eric Cameron's art and philosophy with a series of interconnected essays that create a full picture of a complex artist. This expert commentary, richly illustrated with reproductions of Cameron's works in multiple media, provides a vital and long-overdue critical lens through which to view this fascinating artist, his life, his thought, his art production, and how these elements inform each other and evolve over time.
