The urban street has been an important source of inspiration for artists since the Renaissance, and it remains one of the primary sites for the production and enactment of culture in the world today.

The Street (on now) is organized and circulated by the Vancouver Art Gallery under the Across the Province touring program and is curated by Grant Arnold, Audain Curator of British Columbia Art. This exhibition is complemented by a selection of works drawn from the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria's Permanent Collection, selected by Steven McNeil ( @scarletonmcneil ), acting Chief Curator & Curator of Historical and Canadian Art.
