Tyler Brett, Every Public Building & Some People in Bruno SK circa 2011. Self-published drawing series chronicling every public building and some people in the town of Bruno, Saskatchewan.
Bruno is a rural community of roughly six hundred people located on the Canadian Interior Plains surrounded by a vast, rolling agricultural landscape of canola, flax, wheat and barley, about 90 kilometres east of Saskatoon. Small scale ma & pop, locally owned and operated 20th century false-front buildings service residents and surrounding family farms. Without big box department chains, parking lots or shopping malls, downtown Bruno punctuated by a functioning grain elevator and active rail line is the focus of small town street life. Some drawings in this collection include shopkeepers or members of the community who were associated with the buildings or services depicted. Tyler Brett lived on Main Street while working for Neil Manderscheid's owner/operated construction company and occasionally as a local shopkeeper at the Bruno Arts Bank along side his wife Kerri Reid.
