Barry Argyle

Barry Arglye was born in the United Kingdom in 1933. He left school at 17 to emigrate to Australia
as a farm-hand. Bored, he trained as a bush school-teacher, taught for several years, painted and
wrote poetry and prose, all life long activities, as well as literary criticism and journalism.
With State Scholarships and a Ph. D (Leeds U. K.) he has taught at Universities
in the U K., Switzerland and Australia, retiring from York University (Ontario) after
nearly 30 years. As a Full Professor of English Literature, he continues to show his paintings
and collages in Canada, beginning at the Nancy Poole Studio in Yorkville, Toronto and for a
dozen years now at Gallery 121. His style has varied but throughout there has been the 
influence of landscape, especially the colours of Australia and the equally vivid blacks and whites of war, and the grey rubble of its aftermath.​
