Shaping Saskatchewan: the art scene 1936-1964


June 14 to September 15, 2013

This exhibition highlights an important period in the province’s artistic development, marked by an almost utopian sense of optimism, and astonishing productivity. These works from the Mendel Art Gallery’s permanent collection demonstrate a self-conscious and experimental attitude, and a synthesis of international concerns within a regional sensibility. Shaping Saskatchewan provides a regional context for the concurrent exhibition, The Automatiste Revolution.
