and returned to Canada in 1964. From 1970-79, he was an
Assistant Professor and Chairman of the BFA Programme at the
University of British Columbia. After leaving Vancouver,
Richard became the founding Director of the Grand Forks Art Gallery
(1984-2003) and a teacher in ECCAD's Outreach Program. (Emily Carr College of
