The
Gallery stands in the centre of a city recognized as a nurturing ground for
artistic talent. Through cutting-edge exhibitions, we feature the work of
leaders in the field of contemporary art and Vancouver's internationally
renowned artists, including Jeff Wall, Ian Wallace, Stan Douglas, Rodney Graham,
Roy Arden and Brian Jungen, serving as a portal for their remarkable
achievements while furthering British Columbia's artistic legacy. The Gallery
also houses the magnificent works of significant historical artists, including
the most extensive collection of the work of Canada's beloved Emily Carr. Our
permanent holdings number more than 9,000 artworks, making the Gallery one of
the most valuable collections in Canada.
