Notes

Russell Yuristy was born into a farming family in 1936 in Goodeve, Saskatchewan. He graduated with a degree in English and creative writing from the University of Saskatchewan (1959) before studying art at the University of Wisconsin (1967). After teaching art in Regina and coordinating workshops at Emma Lake, Yuristy moved to Stilton, Saskatchewan and began constructing the large playground structures for which is he well known. First inspired by his own drawings of hollow animals, these sculptures are currently installed at children's playgrounds throughout Canada and the United States. Yuristy has received many significant commissions, including two large playground structures for the 1974 World's Fair in Spokane, Washington, three sculptures for Expo '86 in Vancouver, and a large aluminum sculpture for the Triple A Stadium in Ottawa in 1994. His structures can also be found in several Saskatchewan cities including Regina, Saskatoon, and Swift Current. Yuristy's artwork is represented in the collections of the National Gallery of Canada, the Mendel Art Gallery, the MacKenzie Art Gallery, and the Canada Council Art Bank, among many others. Russell Yuristy moved to Ottawa in 1986 to teach at the University of Ottawa and the Ottawa School of Art.

Prospective bidders should inspect the property before bidding to determine the condition, size, and whether the purchaser acquires any reproduction rights in the property.

4. Notwithstanding the preceding condition, if the purchaser can provide, within 14 days of the sale of any lot, written opinion from at least two acknowledged experts or authorities that the said lot was incorrectly described in the catalogue, and if the purchaser returns the said lot within 14 days after such notice in the same condition as sold, we as agent for the consignor will rescind the sale and refund the purchase price.

7. With the fall of the auctioneer's hammer, title to the lot being offered will pass to the highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer, subject to the conditions set forth herein.
