“A Like Vision”:
The Group of Seven at 100
In 2020, we will be celebrating the achievement of the Group of Seven on the centenary of their first exhibition with a special installation of work from our permanent collection.
CURRENT EXHIBITIONS
Tom Thomson
Tom Thomson is often wrongly assumed to have been a member of the Group of Seven. He almost certainly would have been had he not died too soon.
CURRENT EXHIBITIONS
Walter J. Phillips: At the Lake
This special presentation of works on paper by the Canadian painter and printmaker Walter J. Phillips (1884–1963) explores the artist’s emotional connection and artistic response to Ontario’s Lake of the Woods region.
CURRENT EXHIBITIONS
John Hartman: Many Lives Mark This Place
Hartman's portraits speak to the power of the imagination in experiencing – physically, emotionally and philosophically – the diverse landscapes of our country and the stories that they hold.
CURRENT EXHIBITIONS
Brenda Draney
Brenda Draney’s paintings, with their gestural mark-making and wide expanses of canvas, present fragmented narratives that stem from her personal history as a Cree woman, living in northern Alberta.
