See:
- Maud Lewis exhibition: This show highlights Maud Lewis’s achievements, looking carefully at her serial repetition of images and motifs across her career. From her black cats and kittens, to her cart horses and oxen hauling logs, to her quayside scenes of ships in port and the Maritime landscape in all seasons, Maud Lewis made paintings that delight in their optimism and buoyant vitality.
- Dynamic Connections – Threads of Living Memory: Threads of Living Memory showcases the deep cultural, genetic, personal and communal memories of the Inuit which find life through stitching.
- Shuvinai Ashoona – Mapping Worlds: Mapping Worlds features pencil crayon and ink drawings produced by Shuvinai Ashoona over the past two decades. Many of Ashoona’s early drawings depict scenes of Kinngait (formerly known as Cape Dorset), Nunavut, continuing an artistic tradition begun by the Ashoona family, including her grandmother Pitseolak Ashoona (1904-1983) and cousin Annie Pootoogook (1969-2016).
- Highlights From the Art Collection: Spend some time with a selection of beautiful, surprising and feel-good artworks from Glenbow’s diverse art collection.
