ਸ਼ੀਸ਼ੇ ‘ਚ ਤਰੇੜ  | sheeshe ‘ch thareṛ | a crack in the mirror
November 22 – April 12, 2026
Organized and circulated by The Reach Gallery Museum; guest curated by Sajdeep Soomal.

A survey of work by artist Simranpreet Anand, including collaborative pieces with ethnomusicologist and scholar Conner Singh VanderBeek. Anand’s practice involves playing with materials—particularly textiles, language, performative gestures, and photographs—to open up new trajectories for Sikh and Punjabi diasporic life. 

Fifty Shades of Ink: Ink Paintings from the AGGV Collection
December 6 – April 26, 2026
Curated by Dr. Heng Wu, AGGV Curator of Asian Art

Taking inspiration from the classical principle, “Ink has five shades” (墨分五色), Fifty Shades of Ink expands the idea, suggesting that the potential of ink is endlessly nuanced. This exhibition draws from the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria’s rich collection of Asian ink paintings to celebrate the expressive possibilities of the medium. Also on view are historical ink sticks and ink stones, offering insight into the material and cultural heritage behind this timeless art form. 

Dangerous Beauty: The Prints of Albrecht Dürer
December 13 – May 3, 2026
Curated by Steven McNeil, AGGV Chief Curator & Director of Exhibitions

Sharing artwork from the AGGV collection, this exhibition presents twelve prints by Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528). The selected prints showcase the artist’s extraordinary skill as a printmaker and his fascination with dramatic subjects centred on danger. Dürer’s prints often merge themes of danger and beauty, incorporating monstrous figures as well as scenes that evoke imminent or unfolding peril.
