Oh Canada




















Oh, Canada: Contemporary Art from North North America is an art exhibit put together by the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA) and is the largest survey of contemporary Canadian art ever produced outside Canada. It is made up of more than 100 pieces of art, features 62 artists and collectives from across the country, and is so large it's actually too big for just one gallery. With that in mind, the exhibition will be presented at Esker Foundation, Nickle Galleries, Illingworth Kerr Gallery, and Glenbow Museum. This unique collaboration will encourage dialogue, debate, and a deeper understanding of local, regional, and national contemporary practice.
The exhibition is in full swing, now until April 26th. I took a few photos to give you a teaser of what to expect.




Made me think "Winter"


Inside "The Cabin", which brought back memories of my own youth





Must be seen and heard, as these unique "windmills" also had an aural element to them






The installation "Tender" isn't part of  "Oh Canada" at The Esker Foundation but is set in their feature room and is still thought provoking
Now you can see why it's called "Tender"!
