'Challenging Traditions' Exhibition

Challenging Traditions: Contemporary First Nations Art of the Northwest Coast is a new exhibition organized by Ian Thom, who is currently a senior curator at the Vancouver Art Gallery. The show, which runs at Ontario's McMichael Gallery from June 27 to September 20, is comprised of over seventy contemporary artworks that have been assembled to demonstrate some of the current, complex trends taking place within Native art on the West Coast.


The exhibition features more than forty artists, including artists that Lattimer Gallery has always represented, such as Phil Gray, Jay Simeon, Alano Edzerza and Steve Smith. We are now carrying the beautiful and extensive catalogue for the show, which can be found on our website.
