Today was not the blazing hot day that yesterday was, but it’s still a beautiful city with so much to see and do. And...everything is in bloom or getting ready to! Decidedly, It’s more of an inside day. After working in the studio today I plan on going to theVancouver Art Gallery to see the exhibition of the great works of Lawren Harris (see the description below). My parents are great art lovers with a large varied collection including many well know Canadian artists and they always valued and wanted an original Lawren Harris! They taught me about the group of Seven and started off my love of great Canadian Art. The exhibit is on until tomorrow at 750 Hornby Street. Enjoy!
Lawren Harris: CanadIan Visionary is a career survey of Group of Seven founding member Lawren Stewart Harris, who played a major role in the history of painting in Canada. Presenting an extensive selection of work from the Gallery's permanent collection as well as select loans from local and national collections, the exhibition traces Harris' artistic evolution from the early years of the twentieth century to the mid-1960s and illustrates his move from representational art to abstraction.
