Generations: The Sobey Family and Canadian Art tells the story of one family’s visionary engagement with Canadian and Indigenous art, braiding together works by early European newcomers like Cornelius Krieghoff; titans of Canadian 20th century art, the Group of Seven, Tom Thomson, David Milne and Emily Carr; a rich display of works by the Quebec Impressionists, as well as Automatiste painters Jean Paul Riopelle and Paul-Émile Borduas; and works by trail-blazing artists of today, including contemporary Indigenous artists Kent Monkman, Brenda Draney, Brian Jungen and Annie Pootoogook, as well as leading international artist Peter Doig. A recurring theme in the exhibition is the North Atlantic, its role in history, and its impact on artists’ imaginations.
Generations is organized by the McMichael Canadian Art Collection and curated by McMichael Canadian Art Collection Executive Director & Chief Curator, Sarah Milroy.
You can also check out this new exhibition for free on any of our Feel Free days, generously supported by TD. Check out our Event Calendar to find the Feel Free day that works best for you!
