Step
by Step: Works from the Permanent Collection
Step
by Step: Works from the Permanent Collection features a selection of historical
and contemporary drawings, paintings, prints, installations, sculptures and
photo-based works from the Kelowna Art Gallery's permanent collection. Many
of the works selected for this exhibition are connected in one way or another to
the landscape. Sometimes the landscape is a traditional and serene one of
mountain and lake scenes. Sometimes the artist presents us with a social or
cultural landscape or one that comments on the human impact of building upon,
extracting from, altering and scaring our surroundings. In all cases the
works selected for this exhibition takes the viewer on a journey that holds
wonder, memory, pleasure and inspiration. Many
of the works in this exhibition are new acquisitions and the Gallery is very
pleased to be able to present them here for the first time. Several works have
been in the collection for many years, yet are also being exhibited here for the
first time. Step
by Step: Works from the Permanent Collection provides an opportunity for
local visitors to view and get to know a few of the treasures from the
Gallery's collection. The exhibition also provides an opportunity for visitors
from outside of Kelowna to see and get to know the work of several talented
artists of the Okanagan valley and Western Canada.
