The Art Gallery of Northumberland (AGN) invites the public to the opening reception for our current exhibition, Drawn to the Horizon: A Gift of Ronnie Kaplansky. Join us on Saturday, 25 September, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. located in Victoria Hall, West Wing, Third Floor.
Co-curated by Ruth Jones and Sam Mogelonsky, this exhibition features 79 artworks from 39 Canadian artists, as a gift to the AGN and to the public. As a collector and supporter of the arts from an early age, Ronnie Kaplansky provides us with a glimpse into the collector’s process with his discerning eye and enthusiastic spirit coming together in a collection displaying the wonder of a life spent fixed on art’s endless horizon.
Nearly sixty years of accumulation driven by an emotional and aesthetic response to each work, Kaplansky presents a unique dialogue between artists and viewer.
As Northumberland County’s largest public art gallery, the AGN plays a leading role on local, regional and national stages through exceptional exhibitions, programs and collaborations. It strives to be an inspiring institution that serves as an educational resource, a hub of artistic and cultural energies for local citizens, and a tourist attraction for all audiences.
