The Metamorphosis brings together contemporary art from the Vancouver Art Gallery’s permanent collection that addresses the notion of transformation—whether physical, spiritual or cultural. Some artists featured physically alter the appearance of their materials, while others repurpose everyday objects in evocative ways. Some suggest a movement between different realms or states, others engage the issue of cultural hybridity as a result of shifts between one milieu and another.. -Bruce Grenville, Tarah Hogue, Emmy Lee Wall, VAG exhibition Curators
The LOLABED series were created between 2009-2011 in the memory of acclaimed Canadian dancer and Choreographer Lola MacLaughlin (1952-2019). 139 of the 160 watercolours that were created during this two year period are now in the Vancouver Art Gallery’s Permanent Collection.
