点评:Saskatoon might not be the place that first comes to mind when you think of fine art but this gallery is worth a stop. When we were there they had an exhibit of linocut prints and they had set up a demonstration studio where you can watch the artists put together a print - it is detailed and immersive work and we had a chance to ask questions and observe the activity of creation in a way that I have never experienced before.
If you don’t like modern art you will not enjoy the third floor, but go up there anyway because that’s where the Picassos are, and they are fantastic! Because they are prints you can get a really unique perspective on how he saw the world, as he was clearly experimenting with different techniques, colours, and layering effects to create different visual emphases. If you do like modern art you are guaranteed to like whatever the current exhibit is!
The second floor houses numerous works from local and Canadian artists including one of my favourites by Lawren S. Harris of the mountains.
There is a store on site.
翻译:萨斯卡通可能不是您想到美术时首先想到的地方,但这个画廊值得一看。我们在那里时,他们举办了一场油毡版画展览,并设立了一个演示工作室,您可以在那里观看艺术家制作版画 - 这是一件细致入微、身临其境的作品,我们有机会提出问题,以一种我从未体验过的方式观察创作活动。
如果您不喜欢现代艺术,您不会喜欢三楼,但无论如何都要去那里,因为那里有毕加索的作品,它们太棒了!因为它们是版画,所以您可以真正独特地了解他如何看待世界,因为他显然在尝试不同的技巧、颜色和分层效果来创造不同的视觉重点。如果您喜欢现代艺术,您一定会喜欢当前的展览!
二楼收藏了许多来自当地和加拿大艺术家的作品,包括我最喜欢的劳伦·S·哈里斯 (Lawren S. Harris) 的山间作品之一。
现场有一家商店。
