ART GALLERY - Party On!!
July 31st to August 27th - Party On!
The Group exhibition Party On! Celebrating 50 years of the Alberta Foundation for the Arts (AFA) Collection presents a lively grouping of work by fourteen Albertan artists. Each artwork depicts a single moment of shared revelry and interconnectedness; scenes of musical performances, dancing, carnivals, community gatherings and shared food and drink help mark this special occasion.
Since 1972, the AFA, a provincial corporation of the Government of Alberta, has been acquiring art by notable Albertan artists on behalf of the Albertan public – that’s right, we Albertans are art collectors! This initiative was born out of the desire to support and encourage Albertan artists by investing in their work, while simultaneously preserving an important aspect of our shared cultural history. Today, the collection includes over 9,000 artworks in mediums ranging from painting and drawing, to sculpture, ceramics, fiber arts, prints, photography and media art. The collection continues to grow with art acquisitions by application taking place each year. Step into our time machine to celebrate the ages of knees-up, shindigs, hoedowns and classic ding-dongs!
