3. Art Indigenous people have been creating art in Canada for thousands of years. One common type of art seen all around Canada is totem poles. From 1655-1759, early explorers made sketches of North American territory as they explored the land. From 1759-1867, many British soldiers sketched or painted scenery and people in what is now Canada. These pictures were often sold in European markets. Kathleen Munn and Bertram Brooker experimented with the concept of abstract art. These artists influenced the next generation of abstract artists following World War II. Some of the most famous contemporary artists in Canada today are: Michael Snow , Vito Acconci, Sol LeWitt, Erich Fischl, Lawrence Weiner, Joseph Beuys, and ClaesOldenburn. At the world renound Venice Biennale art exhibition, Canadian artists Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller represented Canada in 2001.

An infamous example in this style is the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa. Romanesque Revival buildings emerged including: Langevin Block, Old Toronto City Hall, British Columbia Legislature. Second Empire Style buildings were erected: Montreal City Hall, Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick, and National Assembly of Quebec. Other styles emerged: Queen Anne Style became the most prominent style for upper and middle class houses across Canada. Tudor Style, Neoclassicism, Beaux-Arts Architecture, and others became popular as well. Today, skyscrapers have been erected such as the CN Tower in Toronto. CN Tower
