John Little and Philip Surrey captured the pulse of urban life like no other Canadian artists of their generation. With Montreal as their primary subject, their paintings offer a window into a rapidly modernizing world. Through their eyes, we can explore Canadian urban environments in transformation, from their vibrant streets of bustling neighbourhoods to the profound, human experiences of the people who lived in them. Our Montreal exhibition will delve into their process, historical importance and the intersections of their artistic visions, as we journey back to mid-century Montreal.
December 9-14. More details to follow.
