Born and raised in London, Ontario, Tom Benner has been a practicing artist since receiving his special arts diploma from the Bealart program at H.B. Beal Secondary School in 1969. His work has been exhibited widely across North America. Since the early 1980s, Benner's artistic attentions have explored the relationship between human beings and nature and have continued to involve a sustained exploration of the environment, of history and of the land. "Call of the Wild" features a selection of works that explore our relationship to the natural world and that span the breadth of Benner's long career.
