Bruce DUNCAN,
Conservationist (1946-2006)
General manager of the Hamilton Conservation Authority haunted
Ontario's Niagara escarpment and was a prolific contributor to
books and articles on hawks and eagles
By Ron CSILLAG,
Special to the Globe and Mail, Page S9
Toronto -- Not even his own wedding could interfere with Bruce
Duncan's love of birds and nature. His 1992 marriage to fellow
hawk bander Janet
SNAITH took place at Hawk Cliff, a prime hawk-watching
bluff overlooking Lake Erie, near Port Stanley, Ontario As Peter
WHELAN, the Globe's late birder columnist duly noted at the time,
the bride and groom wore binoculars. So did the guests and minister,
who had been forewarned the ceremony might be interrupted to
observe any interesting birds of prey.
Fifteen minutes before the nuptials, a peregrine falcon portentously
circled overhead, but no hawk of note interrupted the "I do's."
The next morning, Mr.
DUNCAN's new wife helped him capture the
first peregrine falcon in his 16 years of banding.
Among Canada's leading naturalists and experts on raptors, or
birds of prey, Mr.
DUNCAN was a passionate conservationist and
outdoorsman who loved to teach schoolchildren in and around Hamilton
about the plant and animal life in their surroundings. He was
a prolific contributor to books and scholarly articles on eagles,
hawks and natural history in Ontario.
Mr. DUNCAN was general manager and chief administrative officer
of the Hamilton Conservation Authority. "Bruce was in charge
of a $15-million organization and would not carry a cell phone,"
noted Chris
FIRTH-
EAGLAND, chairman of the authority. "He so
trusted and respected his staff that he wanted them to deal with
the issues. He was very hardworking and dedicated and was always
pursuing better environmental approaches to doing business, remediating
properties and acquiring new lands to protect them."
Normally a quiet, self-effacing man, Mr.
DUNCAN had recently
been flying high. On October 23, Ontario gifted to the conservation
authority a 180-acre parcel of land in upper Stoney Creek, west
of Hamilton, called the Eramosa Karst (a geological formation
where surface water erodes soft limestone and creates underground
streams and caverns). It is considered an environmentally significant
property; the provincial Ministry of Natural Resources designated
the lands an area of natural and scientific interest in 2003.
Two weeks later, a beaming Mr.
DUNCAN emceed the ceremony at
which Heritage Green Community Trust announced a $1.5-million
donation, which he had negotiated, to the Hamilton Conservation
Foundation for the development of the karst lands as the city's
newest conservation area.
"Elation couldn't describe how he had been feeling in the last
couple of weeks for bringing those two things together," Mr.
FIRTH-
EAGLAND
said. "There's no higher end for us than to acquire new land
and open it up for recreation, education and different functions."
Mr. DUNCAN joined the authority in 1988 to run its outdoor education
program. He would take schoolchildren on nature hikes through
the Dundas Valley. In 1992, he became the Hamilton Conservation
Authority's staff ecologist, and a decade later, was named director
of watershed planning and engineering, a post in which he was
responsible for the flood warning and response system. He became
the authority's general manager in January of 2004, and embarked
on an ambitious five-year strategic plan.
The authority will mark its 50th anniversary in 2008, and the
karst acquisition and donation were fine advance centrepieces.
"You can image the satisfaction that our organization felt --
that he felt -- [at] already having this 50th anniversary birthday
present all wrapped up, all secured, all ready," Mr.
FIRTH-
EAGLAND
said.
Born in post-war England to a British mother and Scottish-born
member of the Canadian army's medical corps, Mr.
DUNCAN grew
up in Orillia, Ontario He graduated with a psychology degree
from Wilfred Laurier University and spent the next three years
as a guide at the Quetico Provincial Park west of Thunder Bay,
providing instruction in canoeing, trekking and wilderness lore.
The experience was life-changing. He returned to the University
of Waterloo to study biology and then worked for 11 years for
the Grand River Conservation Authority as a resource interpreter
at the Taquanyah Nature Centre near Cayuga, where he established
himself as a raptor expert. He supervised the introduction of
bald eagles to southern Ontario, and helped introduce peregrine
falcons in the Hamilton area.
But it was on hawks Mr.
DUNCAN was considered an expert. "He
was a self-confessed hawk nut," said Debbie
DUNCAN, his sister-in-law.
"He had a life-long passion for sharing knowledge and enthusiasm
for nature. He was always leading hikes and workshops."
Mr. DUNCAN served as president of both the 500-member Hamilton
Naturalist Club and the Ontario Bird Banding Association. He
personally banded the legs of thousands of predatory birds to
track their migration habits, enduring little more than the usual
talon stabs and scratches. He named one of "his" bald eagles
Gustav Mahler, for his favourite composer. His friend and co-birder
of 30 years, Bob
CURRY, recalls that Mr.
DUNCAN came close to
tears when he discovered that Gustav had been shot and killed
over Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec
"He was a gentleman and a gentle man," Mr.
CURRY recalled. "He
never raised his voice, but managed to influence people."
In 1991, Mr.
DUNCAN founded the Niagara Peninsula Hawk Watch
program, which monitors the migration of hawks, eagles, falcons
and vultures over the Niagara Escarpment.
Nicknamed "the Fox" for his red hair, Mr.
DUNCAN was a First
World War buff who read avidly. "He consumed everything," said
his wife, Janet. "If something caught his interest, he wasn't
satisfied until he'd read a dozen books on the subject."
He indulged his Scottish heritage once a year when the family
hosted a Robbie Burns night at their house (once the home of
Alexander
Graham
Bell.) Mr.
DUNCAN would don a kilt and dress
a mean haggis. In the warm weather, when not out trekking and
communing, he would sit in a lawn chair, imported beer in one
hand and requisite binoculars in the other. In the winter, he
delighted neighbours by building snowmen and snowdogs.
There were frequent family outings with Janet and two young children.
"We were always going somewhere," Janet said, "somewhere different,
and experiencing new things."
Mr. DUNCAN received many honours for his work, including Hamilton's
Environmentalist of the Year Award in 1992, the Canada 125 Award
for Environmental Service to the Community, and a 1997 accolade
from the Hawk Migration Association of North America.
As for the stereotypical image of Hamilton as a gritty steel
town with little regard for conservation or the environment,
Mr. DUNCAN extolled the region as having more waterfalls than
any community in North America, and more escarpment lands and
green space per capita than any other Canadian city -- and he
wanted to keep it that way, said Mr.
FIRTH-
EAGLAND. "
Bruce had
a different feeling about Hamilton. He felt that Hamilton was
blessed."
And as the Hamilton Spectator noted last week, the community
has lost not only a friend, but a teacher whose name is "memorialized
in millions of tonnes of uncarved stone -- and grass, woods,
streams and caves."
Bruce William
DUNCAN was born on January 13, 1946, in Woking,
Surrey, England. He died in hospital in Brantford on November 11,
2006, after suffering injuries in a car accident near his home
in Paris, Ontario The vehicle he was driving had been struck
head-on by a car that had crossed the centre line. The other
diver was declared dead at the scene. He was 60. He leaves his
wife, Janet; two children, Katie, 10 and James, 13; one brother,
Jim, and a sister, Margaret
DEMUNNIK. A public celebration of
his life will be held at Bay Gardens Funeral and Memorial Centre,
1010 Botanical Dr., Burlington, Ontario on Saturday, November 25,
from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Tom HODGSON,
Artist And Athlete: (1924-2006)
The last surviving member of the Painters Eleven group that introduced
abstract art to Toronto was an anti-academic who favoured spontaneity
over skill. He was also a champion canoeist
By John CHAPUT,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S9
Tom HODGSON grew up on Toronto's Centre Island near Hanlon's
Point, a locale named after the legendary 19th-century rower
Ned HANLON, but chose canoeing as his water sport. That proved
wise as he became a Canadian Olympian on the water and even symbolic
in his lifelong occupation as an artist. Whereas a rower gazes
back on the water he has spanned, the paddler always looks ahead.
Technically a master of representational fundamentals, Mr.
HODGSON
enjoyed a long career in advertising, could paint striking realistic
portraits, and picked up extra money doing courtroom sketches.
His quest as an artist, however, was to find new means to express
creativity, even if it meant suppressing skill and rebelling
against an establishment he regarded as stifling.
"He thought the most creative people were the young who weren't
influenced by anything," says daughter Lise
SNAJDR. "My father
was a skilled draftsman, but, in a way, he was against skill
because it was all stuff you picked up from life experience.
He was left-handed, but he went through a period of drawing only
with his right hand in an attempt not to be too skillful. As
it turned out, he developed an ambidexterity that proved to be
another skill.
"His painting was spontaneous -- everything he did was -- but
he wanted it to look that way. He could be free and liberal with
paint, and put his feelings into a work."
Described by some as "anti-intellectual," Mr.
HODGSON was, in
fact, a deep thinker who would be better described as anti-academic.
"He had his own ideas," says artist Gary
MILLER of Peterborough,
Ontario "He had great admiration for Willem de Kooning, but he
didn't want to just cater to someone's opinion. He was stubborn
and, because he was anti-academic, there was a movement to squelch
Tom."
In his book Creativity Is Change, Mr.
HODGSON declared skill
to be "in some ways the antithesis of creativity, a sort of disrespect
for man's time, and certainly for his individualism&hellip
"Creativity is curiosity, concern, trial and error, invention,
not knowing, discovery. Skill is knowing how to do something….
The essence of creativity is uniqueness."
Mr. HODGSON was sometimes dismissed as a "jock painter" because
many couldn't see athleticism and aesthetics harmonized in one
personality. He won more than a dozen national titles at the
juvenile and junior levels, and then nine more as an adult. In
1952, he took eighth place at the 1952 Helsinki Games in the
1,000-metre tandem with Art Johnson. At the Melbourne Games in
1956, he placed ninth in the 10,000-metre tandem with Bill Stevenson.
Standing just under six feet tall and weighing about 140 pounds,
Mr. HODGSON was a whirlwind in the studio, his frenetic energy
bustling as if his body was struggling to keep up with his train
of thought. Although articulate, he could lapse into a stutter
that affected his speech in childhood but was brought under control
through therapy he took early in his professional life.
Mr. HODGSON's first serious painting was done from 1943 to 1945
while he was training as a pilot and gunner in the Royal Canadian
Air Force. The Second World War ended and he was discharged before
he could be assigned to combat, but he made numerous renderings
of military life and later donated them to the War Art Museum.
He first achieved artistic prominence a decade later as one of
the Painters Eleven, the association of Toronto avant-garde painters
who challenged artistic conservatism and gave the city its first
healthy dose of abstract modernism. With Jack
BUSH,
Oscar
CAHEN,
Hortense GORDON, Alexandra
LUKE, Jock
MacDONALD, Ray
MEAD, Kazuo
NAKAMURA, William
RONALD, Harold
TOWN and Walter
YARWOOD, they
broadened the scope of Canadian art through mutual support and
group exhibitions from their 1953 formation through their gradual
fragmentation and dissolution from 1956 to 1960. Their affiliation
was more professional than theoretical; they used disparate approaches
and had no aesthetic commonalities.
Works of the Painters Eleven grew in demand and value in the
'60s, but just a little too late for Mr.
HODGSON to take full
advantage of it. Short of materials at the time, he painted over
some of the canvasses that could have brought in good money.
Bad luck also struck in 1993 when a fire at his cottage destroyed
many of the works he had stored there.
As a senior instructor at the Ontario College of Art, he was
in the forefront of outrage at the upheaval of the school brought
about by the policies of new president Roy
ASCOTT in 1971-72.
As a tenured professor, Mr.
HODGSON was able to keep his job
while many of his colleagues were fired, only to quit himself
within a few months. Ironically, he was one of only two people
on staff who had opposed the institution of tenure at the Ontario
College of Art in the 1960s.
"Tom believed in the process of creativity as one of constant
change and in the freedom of artists," says Mr.
MILLER, then
a student at the Ontario College of Art. "
ASCOTT and later Royden
RABINOVITCH were from the New York school, very radical and modern,
and they were telling students their work was garbage. So Tom
broke away, formed the Z School, and took half the student body
with him."
As protests go, it was symbolically powerful and a practical
failure.
"The Z School lasted about six months," recalls Don
MORRISON,
an artist and illustrator who was Mr.
HODGSON's long-time friend
and business partner. "You can't very well have a school without
a structure or bureaucracy."
Mr. MORRISON and Mr.
HODGSON shared studio space, first on Church
Street across from St. James Cathedral, then in a warehouse on
the corner of Dufferin and Bloor. Those were also venues for
Drawing Night in Canada figure classes held every Thursday. The
classes were conducted as the antithesis of the typically sombre
gathering of sketchers and painters around a nude model.
"Usually at classes like that, it's like listening for a pin
to drop," Mr.
MORRISON says. Drawing Night in Canada was different.
"These were noisy, vocal, 10 to 18 artists talking and joking.
Anyone could grab a cold beer for 50 cents. The model would talk
back and tell stories, too."
Inevitably, Mr.
MORRISON wearied of the back-lane access to the
warehouse and told his partner he'd prefer a storefront studio.
"A storefront?" Mr.
HODGSON retorted. "I need a storefront like
I need a hole in the head." In a matter of weeks, they had two
storefront studios, one of them facing the historically infamous
but architecturally engaging Mental Health Centre at 999 Queen
Street West.
"Tom was impulsive, just like his painting. He would do exactly
what he wanted," Mr.
MORRISON says. "He built a swimming pool
in the backyard of every house he owned. He would attempt to
do almost anything. One day, he had a plumber come to his home
on MacPherson Avenue because of a leak and the plumber said a
lot of digging was necessary to get at the incoming line in front
of the house. When he told Tom what it would cost, Tom said:
'I'll tell you what, I'll dig it myself.' After he had dug this
enormous hole, I told Tom: 'Well, it may have been a lot of work
to dig, but it'll be easy to fill in.' 'I don't want to fill
it in,' he told me. 'I'm going to build a ramp so I can drive
my bike right under the front porch and into the basement.' He
had three motorcycles -- a
BMW, a Husqvarna, and a Can-Am. So
he built the ramp.
"It didn't occur to me that if he took the ramp to come in the
basement, he'd use it to get out, too. I was renting on the second
floor, and the first time he revved up one his bikes --
VRRRROOOOM!
I jumped right out of bed."
Mr. HODGSON's energetic and impulsive nature, bohemian cultural
surroundings and enjoyment of good times were an ideal formula
for trouble in a man ripe for midlife crisis. He had a number
of lovers and ended his first marriage to Wilma
HODGSON before
settling into a peaceful lifestyle with his second wife, Catherine
GOOD.
They moved to Peterborough in 1990. A few years later,
he began to display the first signs of Alzheimer's. He was the
last surviving member of the Painters Eleven.
Thomas Sherlock
HODGSON was born on June 5, 1924, in Toronto.
He died on February 27, 2006, near Peterborough, Ontario, of
Alzheimer's disease. He is survived by his sons Mark, Rand and
Timothy, daughters Lise Snajdr and Kara Warburton, and sister
Jane HODGSON. He was predeceased by his wife, Catherine.

Tom HODGSON, 81: Passion for art, life
Abstract painter helped revitalize Canadian art
Kid from islands paddled a canoe like few others
By Catherine
DUNPHY,
Obituary
Writer
People always talk about the parties. That's what they remember
about Tom HODGSON's life. They happened wherever he lived or
in whatever studio he worked -- be it the Pit, as it was called,
at King and Church Sts., the house on Shaw Street, where he built
a swimming pool in the kitchen, or the storefront on Queen St. W.
opposite the mental hospital.
Cold cuts infamously served on the reclining body of a nude woman
adorning the buffet table, body-painting women's bare breasts,
art student orgies, rich and powerful art patrons swinging on
the rope from his studio ceiling.
HODGSON's sons used to drop by to meet girls because there were
always women around their dad -- if not the models he hired to
pose nude for life drawing classes, then the dewy-eyed students
he taught at the Ontario College of Art during the '70s, when
mores were exploding in the name of creativity, the muse and
the worship of the artist.
You can get away with it when you're also one of Canada's greatest
painters, a founder of the audacious Painters Eleven -- the gang
of abstract artists who broke the stranglehold of the Group of
Seven and revolutionized the Canadian art world, at the same
time as you're an Olympic athlete, marathoner, dirt-bike champ
and master paddler winning dozens of national championships.
"Tom was a gifted person. Some people are just touched a certain
way, but he was very easy about it, not full of himself," said
Christopher
CUTTS,
HODGSON's art dealer.
In 1987, when
CUTTS was an upstart on the art scene, a friend
arranged a meeting with the artist known as a superb colourist,
as well as for his style of action painting -- arm's-length hurling,
scraping, pouring oil paints on horizontal canvases on a table
surface held in place by an elaborate system of blocks and tackle.
"He had a natural way of dancing on the canvas. He could make
it work," CUTTS said.
HODGSON's last solo show was at Cutts's gallery in 1992, the
year the artist was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. This year, five
days after
HODGSON died from the disease -- at 81 on February 27
CUTTS opened a major group show of abstract painters.
HODGSON's
piece in the show was priced at $30,000.
HODGSON and his kid sister grew up in a 35-room house on Centre
Island that their family rented out to tenants. Their father
was an insurance broker, a convivial alcoholic who threw parties
at their home, known throughout the island as the Hodgson House
of Nonsense, according to Jane
HODGSON.
"The kids all hung out at the clubhouse on the lagoon," she recalled.
"All of us paddled."
But HODGSON was just that much more intense about the sport and
much more skilled. When he was 12, it also was clear he was also
a talented artist. He began the balancing act between art and
athletics that he would maintain for decades.
He trained hard, dodging the ice in Toronto's harbour, winning
more than 20 Canadian solo championships. With another islander,
Art JOHNSON, and later Bill
STEPHENSON, he finished eighth in
the tandem at the Helsinki Olympics in 1952 and in ninth place
four years later in Melbourne, Australia.
HODGSON married Wilma
STEIN, an island girl, and they moved into
a house on Centre Island on a lot that extended to the lagoon,
where he built a north-facing studio on stilts.
When the property of Centre Island's residents was expropriated
in the late '50s,
HODGSON moved to the city, becoming very successful
in advertising at the same time as he was making a name for himself
in the art world with Painters Eleven.
But he walked away from advertising after assessing that he had
enough money either to buy a sports car or support himself as
an artist for two years. When his marriage ended in 1968, his
wife had to get a job to support their four kids. "His life was
more important than anybody else and that was hard," said daughter
Lise SNAJDR. "He wasn't a good father, but he was a good person
in many ways."
"He was not the kind of dad who hugged or kissed you or told
you he loved you," said Tim
BROADWAY,
HODGSON's fifth child,
born to Jeannie
BROADWAY, an artist. They never married.
Painters Eleven officially disbanded in 1959. By the 1960s and
early '70s,
HODGSON was a famous artist, as well as a popular
teacher at the Ontario College of Art. A nudist, he hosted many
parties around the indoor pool at his Shaw St. home. He never
had more than three beers, but others did.
"They were orgies," said Neil
COCHRANE, an assistant art director
at the Toronto Star who was studying at the college then. "That's
what happens when you get naked art students, water and drink."
HODGSON met his second wife, Cathy
GOOD, when she was his student.
She was 19, he 46. He and
GOOD moved to a horse farm near Hastings,
Ontario, where he built a pond and paddled until 1996, when he
went over a dam on the Trent River. By then, Alzheimer's had
robbed him of the ability to talk in full sentences or complete
a painting.
HODGSON then moved into a care facility and Good to an apartment
in Warkworth. He could neither walk nor talk.
GOOD, who was devoted
to him, visited him three times a day, until her unexpected death
last year of an embolism.
HODGSON was saluted by Friends and family at the Balmy Beach
Club last month. At one point, one of his Friends shouted, "Here's
to Tom," then took off all his clothes (except for his socks)
and ran around the whole assembly, past
HODGSON's trophies and
his art, before sitting down and putting on his clothes.
"Dad would have loved it,"
SNAJDR said. "But I think he would
have preferred it have been a beautiful young woman."
