Shore, Forest and Beyond ART FROM THE AUDAIN COLLECTION - Vancouver Art Gallery

Work from gallery artists Dana Claxton, Angela Grossmann and Attila Richard Lukacs will be on display at the Vancouver Art Gallery in the exhibition, Shore, Forest and Beyond. The exhibition gathers works from the Collection of Michael Audain and Yoshiko Karasawa who are amongst Canada’s most prominent and committed patrons of the arts. 

 

“The role of private collectors in the art world has always been essential to both artists and museums. Private collections are formed in a variety of ways, yet some achieve particular distinction for their depth, breadth and quality. The works assembled by Michael Audain and Yoshiko Karasawa over the last two decades form one of the most important private holdings of work by First Nations and non-First Nations British Columbia artists. The Audains have created a collection that allows a particularly rich history of the art of British Columbia to be told.”
