Canadian Art: A Child's World
Annual Loan Exhibition
October 28 - November 11, 2017
(It may take a few seconds to download the catalogue)
Galerie Eric Klinkhoff has a long-standing and unique tradition of hosting annual non-selling shows. This year, we proudly present paintings of children in Canada from the mid-nineteenth century to the 1950s and we explore how their depiction changed over time. We invite you to view these works and to become aware of the history, cultures and methods of creation that contributed to these pictures of children by some of Canada's most outstanding artists.
Paintings have been generously lent by Canadian private collectors. It is their precious collaboration that has made this exhibition would possible.
