David Milne: Modern Painting
Vancouver Art Gallery, 750 Hornby, VancouverThe Vancouver Art Gallery in collaboration with Dulwich Picture Gallery and the McMichael Canadian Art Collection, with support from the National Gallery of Canada, presents David Milne: Modern Painting, on view June 16 to September 9, 2018. David Milne (1882 – 1953) enjoyed a career that spanned half the twentieth century, taking him from the bustling cityscape of New York, to the battlefields of Northern France and Belgium, and back to the wilderness of the Canadian and US landscape. During his progression as a painter, he carved out a distinguished place among Canada’s most original artists. This first major exhibition of Milne shown in the country in thirty years, coming direct from its recent European debut in London, features close to ninety works in oil and watercolour, never-before-presented photographs, drawings, and memorabilia.
