Biography

Jack Harman (1927–2001) was a Vancouver sculptor, studying at the Vancouver School of Art, the University of British Columbia, the Slade School of Art and Hammersmith School of Art in England. He taught for twelve years at the Vancouver School of Art (later Emily Carr University) and established the first sculpture foundry in BC in North Vancouver, casting his own work and that of Northwest Coast Indigenous artists such as Bill Reid and Robert Davidson. Harman created iconic sculptures including The Family (1966), which was installed outside of the former Vancouver Sun offices on Granville Street and now sits on Granville Island.
