Frank Stella ( B. 1936 ) is an American painter, sculptor and printmaker noted for his work in the areas of Minimalism and Post - Painterly Abstraction. Working since the 1950's, Stella has created a Modernist style Abstraction and singular creative voice that is unique unto himself. He is heralded for creating Abstract paintings that bear no pictorial illusions of psychological or metaphysical references in 20th Century Art. Artworks by Stella are included in the collections of many of the world's most prestigious museums.

In the summer of 1967 Stella taught a workshop at The University of Saskatchewan. His time there inspired a series of paintings named for places in the Canadian province, including Lac La Ronge, a scenic lake. Stella had already been working on a series of paintings on shaped ( non rectangular ) canvases with designs based on patterns made with protractors. The Saskatchewan Series continued to explore some of the same patterns, specifically the circle a four petaled motif, but within a rectangle or square. paintings from this series stand out as some of the most iconic and important artworks of his oeuvre.
