In these transformed galleries, the parallel and, at times, interrelated stories of Indigenous and Canadian art in Canada are brought together in one unforgettable display. Visitors can rediscover iconic artworks from the national collection, including recent acquisitions by artists such as A.Y. Jackson, Lawren S. Harris, George T. Berthon, Ruben Komangapik, Tim Pitsiulak, and Emily Carr, among others. Also on view is an impressive selection of objects on temporary loan: among them, stunning works by Indigenous artists. On this tour, we consider some of the iconic artworks that give voice to the artists’ visions.
